DS 230 - documents needed and affidavit support

[Mari0224 2]

Hey, I hoping I can get some guidance. I have 3 mths since my I-130 has been accepted. I understand within the next month or so I'll be asked for the affidavit support. I have requested 3 years worth of transcripts for the IRS. Would these transcripts be enough to submit with the affidavit or will I need a employer letter or/and paystubs?

Secondly, I'm going to go see my husband within the next week . In regards to the DS 230 form what documents from my husband will I need from to bring back with me? Since hopefully my next trip will be for the interview (fingers crossed) I want to make sure I get all the needed documents from this trip from my husband to help this whole process run smoothly, thanks!!

The latest transcript (2012) isn't proof of your CURRENT income, which is the whole point of the employee letter and pay stubs. So, if you can, get at least one, although both are recommended.

What is needed in the IV package?

Generally, the following is needed:

- Bar-coded cover sheet from payment portal

- Completed, signed, and dated DS-230 form by beneficiary (do NOT sign or date part 2; this is done at the interview) [note: if doing online forms (DS-260), the DS-230 is obviously not needed]

- Two passport-style photographs (2" x 2") of beneficiary (on the back, write: beneficiary's full name, date of birth, and case number)

- Copy of bio-data page of beneficiary's unexpired passport

- Original or Certified Copy of beneficiary's birth certificate, PLUS A PHOTOCOPY

- Original or Certified Copy of marriage certificate, PLUS A PHOTOCOPY

- Original police certificate(s)

Please read: http://travel.state..../info_3195.html for additional documents if applicable (such as petitioner documents in IR-5 cases or divorce/military records).

Also read the country-specific documents linked in the first post. There may be additional documents needed not listed above.

It is NOT mandatory to send out all 3 year worth, this is optional but you will need to send out the (2012). (I sent in all 3yrs) same thing goes with the employment verification letter and paystub, NOT mandatory but optional ( I sent in both in my package).

See below for what you will need from your husband.

• Copy of biographical page of beneficiary’s passport
• Police Report (Papel de buena conducta)
• Birth Certificate (Inextenza y Legalizado; Certificated & Legalized)
• Marriage Certificate (Inextenza y Legalizado)
• Two-2x2 photos
• Sign and completed DS230 PT 1
• Unsigned DS230PT
