  1. That explains it. If it's the 2025 edition (check the date) then complete the top left section and include the page with a signature anywhere. The problem is that you left out the page altogether....AND...you did not complete the page as required. Double-check that you've provided the full five years, or residence and work history for petitioner and beneficiary. If you haven't or anything is missing on other pages, complete it now.
  2. Correct. Adobe reader is free, and the forms are all built to work with it.
  3. Yes, and when using an Adobe product to complete the form, that auto populates. It's part of the form anyway. All pages must be submitted.
  4. What is the "Edition Date" on the form you filed? The 2022 edition has a different page 12 for a preparer to sign. If you filed too late to use that edition, that's a separate issue. I'm sure the other poster with the same notation filed the older (2022) version. In both versions the top of the last page autofils when you use an adobe product to complete it. If the information in the top left corner is missing, that's what you complete. Page 12 was usually not applicable when using the 2022 version, but IS applicable when using the January 2025 version of the form. Details matter. Noting your response in the other thread, I did not say denied. I said "rejected". It's not the same thing. In a rejected filing, the whole package is returned. That is not the case for you. I now doubt it was for the June poster either. My response assumed the June poster used the 2022 version of the form where page 12 is not the last page.
  5. If you want advice on your own case, it's best to open your own topic and include the exact wording from your RFE. Unless your wording is exactly the same, the responses here will not be helpful. I didn't read the topic back then, but before advising I would have asked more questions. It seems this petition was rejected altogether, not just a request for evidence. Either way, signing page 12 was not the issue. That page is only signed by a "preparer" not the petitioner. If something else, or a signature was missing, it was not about page 12.
  6. All true but Islamabad is not Manila. For Pakistan, one is wise to far exceed minimum requirements for getting a petition approved. The goal is to be together in the USA. Consular Officers don't care how difficult or expensive it is.
  7. Submit the I-864, not the EZ version in this case. I should add that even though it is not technically incorrect to use the I-864EZ in your case, it's no extra work, and saves any confusion on the part of NVC. Just leave the asset section blank. It's optional anyway.
  8. How many trips to visit is less important than how much time spent together. If you can't have an extended visit, then yes two or three visits total would be much better than the situation you are in now. Chances of eventual IR1 approval through Islamabad, is much better. Focus on minimum requirements, is a mistake, particularly for countries with a record of high US immigration fraud. I never advise a K1 visa coming from Pakistan. It's not going to be CR1. It will take more than two years, so it will be IR1.
  9. Not really an option, since you already filed the I-130. You would have to withdraw it first.
  10. Even with the I-134 you must have a qualified "co-sponsor" in order to be approved for the visa. This comes later at interview time. You don't mention the country, but in Thailand, or Philippines, the Consular Officers do not accept co-sponsors for K1 visas.
  11. While "consummation" as one would define it traditionally, may well not be possible during a visit, the traditional/practical definition is not what matters in this case. For the I-130 filing, he only needs proof they've been together in person after the wedding ceremony but before filing the I-130. That (primary) evidence can be a passport entry stamp to Syria, and/or boarding passes for flight to Syria. It is not required to show they were ever together alone.
  12. You do not need translated proof you lived together or any government document. State the addresses with start and end dates on any forms as requested. The evidence to support that would be in passports or boarding passes showing whichever one of you was in the other's country. You could also use rental or lease agreements. I know this is a spouse case, but for example, when required to show evidence (understand the difference between "evidence" and "proof") of having met in person prior to filing a fiancée petition, evidence of being in the same country is all the primary evidence required. Photos together are good, but considered secondary evidence.
  13. Yes, your financial situation may negatively impact your ability to sponsor your spouse for an immigrant visa. US Immigration laws don't provide for understanding difficulty, if it means the taxpayers are going to be on the hook to support the immigrant. Like you said, most people can't afford to rent in the USA and abroad, so they don't even try. The US Citizen goes back to the USA and pays one rent. Your choices are yours to make but you don't get to make choices for the US taxpayer. You've already been told that your wife's hardships won't get an expedite approved, and you've been told the visa decision will most likely made sooner than the expedite could be approved anyway. If you want to do a fundraiser, it should not become information that relates to your wife's immigration process.
  14. Correct. The evidence of meeting is required to be filed with the I-130. You can file after April Everybody here understands your situation and desire, but filing without that evidence will just be a waste of time and money. That I-130 will be denied. File after you've been together.
