Ok, so this has probably been asked before, but i don't see any recient topics. We had our interview Aug. 17th at Cairo Embassy, just a few days ago, and we were told that he's approved and took his finger prints and passport BUT we need a co sponsor. So.......I'm in Egypt still with my husband and I've started to have my father call relatives to see if they would help out. NO ONE seems to care!!!! My father even recived a few terrorist comments from others (not family). Grrrrrrrr makes me so angry. I currently have a friend of mine that has asked about the requirements etc. and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I don't know.......I just feel akward asking friends if they will co sponsor with me. Did anyone have to go through this, and how did you go about asking etc.???????

I have two daughters who are sooooooo excited to have their step father come home finally and I'm currently 3 months pregnant, we just want to get this thing over with!!!!! I feel like I would get a sponsor more easy if I am still over seas lol I just feel like it would look better if I'm asking for him to return back with me and people will be more sympathetic maybe????? I dunno. I'll probably end up going home alone in a couple of weeks and NOT talking to those who made hateful comments. I'm sooooo frustrated.

Welcome to Visa Journey. Sorry you are having a rough time finding a cosponsor. I did not need one so I dont have any experience with it. I sure someone will chime in and give you some suggestions. Congratulations! I know you are so excited about your new addition to your family. I hope you guys find a co sponsor soon. :thumbs:

I hope you can get someone! Make sure you know how binding it is because I believe that it is not as legally binding as the I-864 used for AOS. Good luck! My brother was nice enough to help and I hope you can find someone soon.

Thank you guys for the welcome :) I've been lurking around for a while then lost the site and found it again lol. You know, I would think that I would be able to find someoneeee. I've always been the friend or family memeber that people can trust. The one friend that everyone lets drive his/her car, the one who watches their kids, the one who will run to them in the middle of night. I do have a question though. Today we recieved a call from the Cairo Embassy asking Hossam to call a number to make an appointment to get his finger prints done and bring $85 for fees to get his VISA. Now, he was already finger printed at the embassy..........hmmmmmm. So, I'm sure it's for the back ground checks, am I right??? And would this mean a good thing that they called this soon????? Thank you so much for all ur answers guys, hugzzzzzzzz

his name is probably getting a *hit* and they need a full set of prints to deem he is who he says he is, or better yet, that he's not someone else w/ a similar name. It's probably a good thing - at least it means they're working on your case. good luck!

My hubby and I are currently filing for his AOS, and we think they might ask us for a co-sponsor because of my income the past 3 years even though I currently make more then enough now. When I brought up the fact that it was a possibility to my father, he said no because of the obligations, even though he knows that we will be well off after he is allowed to work. But, this is the one hard thing about all of this is having to be a sponsor and finding a co-sponsor. I personally hope I can do it myself because I hate asking people for things. I hope you find someone soon so you hubby can come home with you. Good Luck!

I was just surprised that they would go ahead and ask for finger prints and fee's before I sent co sponsor papers. I figured that we would be completely frozen until then. Ahhhhgggggg I'm on edge LOL.

I had to get a co-sponsor and this is what I told them...

"In order for my husband to be approved for his visa, I need a co-sponsor. That means that someone other than myself agrees to be responsible for his well-being for the next 7 years. It is just to prove that we accept full responsibility for him (should anything happen). Will you do it for me? "

and that's what I did......

Visited Jordan-December 2004

Interview-December 2005

Visa approved-December 2005, 1 week later after supplying "more information"

Arrived U.S.A.-December 2005

Removed Conditions-September 2008

Divorced in December 2013
