  1. Depends on where you are in the NVC process, to know why this happens. I suspect you indicated the child was immigrating with their parent. Fix that, as US Citizens do not immigrate to the USA.
  2. This is SSDI, not SSI. He's still working, so should continue to work until the SS Disability is approved. Chances are the immigrants will already be in the USA by then, making SSDI income for sponsorship a moot point. Yes, if SSDI is enough, it can be used by a petitioner to sponsor an immigrant if it's enough. Since it is not a part of the present tense of this case, that really doesn't matter.
  3. Of course you know what to do. You can have him print an new one corrected, and sign it, then upload a replacement.
  4. If they are asking for your birth certificate, there is no substitute document. The mismatch is what it is. What is the actual explanation anyone could give?
  5. Start by clicking on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here. Whether you file online or on paper, you do not need anything physically sent from Ghana. He can email documents, and you print and mail, or upload if filing by mail. Be aware that it will take 12 to 18 months for the petition to be approved and because of the backlog for interviews in Accra, you are at least three years away from a visa being issued.
  6. You transferring money to your foreign spouse is not evidence of a bona fide relationship. It is not comingling of finances. It's you supporting her. It is her end that you are evidencing as genuine, not yours. Leave out anything about you sending money to her. Comingling of finances is not expected when couples don't live in the same country.
  7. Then you wife needs help to properly file her return. You can do nothing about the fact the joint sponsor didn't file those returns. What is the reason? If they had income below the filing threshold, then that's the explanation. If it's anything else, then those returns need to be filed.
  8. Who rejected her tax return? If IRS, then she needs the help of a tax professional. If NVC, then something was missing or incomplete. Without context, no meaningful advice can be given on this.
  9. Correct. The Will and house are not evidence of a bona fide relationship, and will not help later with the affidavit of support unless it is sold first. It's just where the couple lives together and nothing more. That the US Citizen owns a home in the foreign spouse's country will amplify the domicile issue at the next stage, but not relevant to the I-130 approval.
  10. It's your decision who you listen to. I suggest you read my signature block carefully.
  11. So that is a house in Nigeria. Thanks for clarifying.
  12. You get a new passport in your married name. You already changed your name legally, you just didn't get a new passport. Unless you actually live in that house, it is not your primary residence in the present tense. (Until you do) If it is your intent to live there, you can indicate that in the next stage and you can mention the intention now. Dad's will is about your ownership, not your domicile or the bona fides of your marital relationship. Keep context in mind at all times and focus on what is actually true. It will serve you much better than anything you can contrive. I feel compelled to say again that the evidence you have been living together in Nigeria for as long as you have, should be your focus at this time. It's plenty.
  13. Primary evidence in this context is that the two of you live in Nigeria together since the wedding in 2023. Concentrate on that, with evidence from your passport, name change, and whatever else. You did not have to come to the USA to change the name in your passport. You could do that through the embassy in Lagos. You would have been wise to file in your married name, but that's not the problem. https://ng.usembassy.gov/passports/
