denied or what?

Thank u hopefaithlove yes i got the 221g form from them ,they just asked me to submit the evidence of sustained current income.We probably ask if we can have a cosponsor.hope everthing will be okay next time...Thank u sis ...God bless

The good news is that you interview was successful. So all you need is a co-sponsor's I-864 to be sent to you by your US spouse. All the best in getting one soon.

don't worry your 221g is just a letter saying their decision will wait based on your ability to provide another source of income if it means he has a second job assets or co sponsor. They are waiting for your documentation for that.. its def not a denial just rather a wait until we are satisfied with his income.

Get those documents together as soon as possible and submit them Then it takes a few weeks for review and putting them with your case and then they can make their decision

If they were going to deny you they would have done so already..

Wish you best of luck

Hi dear,i was given the 221(g)after my interview 2wks back,i contacted my attorney who said i shld get,the original w.2 form,letter from my husband's jobs,his pay stubs,the company's business card & brochure,affidavits from friends & relatives attesting that the marriage is real & other documents for proof of the relationship,i got all these & sent them mail that am ready but the sad news is dat they gave me almost 3months appointment.Don't worry just calm down & get all d things they required in d form 221g they gave,u can even e-mail them so that they can start rescheduling your appointment if u are sure u wil get the requirements soon b/c they gave me a long appointment which am not comfortable with at all & i don't know what else to do rather than to wait.

Hello friends,

I went to the interview today with my 2 kids,everything went smoothly until final interview...I was so disappointed ..In my part everything was ok,but on my petitioner's part yes the consul not satisfied with his tax return and bank statement ...He receives close to $2,500 a month but the consul looked on the other side how he can support his children and my children..To make the story short ,he told me to provide another evidence of his income...Im worried and hopeless right now,bcuz they didnt tell me if its denied or what? How much money he spent for medical and non refundable visa fee(for 3 )? Is anyone had the same experience? please share it with me. My fiancee told me to give him a call after the interview, I know he is asleep and yet this is not a good news ,so i decided not to call him and wait when he wakes up.Im depressed,sad,disappointed etc....After submitting the document they asked what is next?Is there any fiancee visa denied yet?Please tell me what will happen next if there's anyone had the same experience like mine at the interview...And congratulations to those who got approved today..I met one of the vj friends at the interview and she got approved Congrats Mr. Smith ,u told me I might see/meet ur wife there,and yes I met her...Your wife will be there soon... After the long time waiting u finally have her soon.Not like me huhuhu...

You said his Kids so I'm assuming he has at least 2 Kids. That's 6 People on under $30K per year (you said close to $2500). By U.S. Standards that's exactly on the poverty level for most states. You'd be eligible for Food stamps the day you land in the U.S. at that rate. Not meaning to be negative, I am a licensed Social Worker in Texas. That simply isn't enough money a year to support a wife and 4? children here. If there are six of you he'll need to show income of $37.5K per year.

yes thats what we are planning getting a cosponsor. thank u very much...

Does the embassy in the Philippines allow co-sponsors on a k1 visa? I thought I read in the past that they only allowed a few special cases. Somebody please correct me if I am wrong. Trulyinlove, did the 221g say anything about a co-sponsor at all?

[Princessblack 21]

It doesnt sound like denial. Though your husband makes that amount per month, they also look at what the adjusted gross income filed received for 2010 was. If that is below the threshold of filing for 4, then further proof of income is indeed needed.

Send in co sponsors 864 with him and your should be approved.

Hi Andiand Pui ,No they didnt say anything about co sponsor,they just asked for sustained current income. We will call the embassy if we can get a cosponsor which is his mom.bcuz i dont think he can provide sustained current income bcuz we already submitted everything (current)actually in his bank statement its till september bank statement.

yes they said this is not denial but it takes a more time to process again u know. We will try a co sponsor too if that works.

Trulyinlove, good luck and I hope you hear good news from the embassy soon.

thanks and God bless

Provide more evidence of support or a co sponsor.

[trulyinlove 3]

Ok, Sis! btw, did you submit recent paystubs? I'm just trying to analyze, because you mentioned about "evidence of sustained current income". Submitting current paystubs (2011) might be of help. I remember my Fiance gave me current paystubs (2011) from his 2 employers aside from the 3-year tax returns and W2. Hopefully this helps. I also have 2 kids with me during interview but I got approved. Anyway, I hope you could still work it out. Don't lose hope, just keep focus on what is being asked. I am not sure if you could still opt not to bring your kids immediately or follow-to-join within one year. But, it is best to ask USEM so you would be properly guided. I hope to hear positive feedback then. God bless you and your kids.
