Hey guys, I need your opinion on something..I've been on my job for 3 weeks now going on a month...

Should I have my hubby fill out a new Form I-864 (Affidavit of Support) since there was a change in our household income...just in case..

And include my name in

24b. Income you are using from any other person who was counted in your household..name-relationship-current income..

And select 24e.. The person listed above, My name, does not need to complete Form I-864A because he/she is the intending immigrant and has no accompanying dependents (no kids yet) and all other information.

And I have gathered all my information a very long time ago, in a folder labeled and everything..just waiting to be taken out..Here's what I have so far:-

Me and hubby's-

Birth certificates, Marriage license,social security cards ,driver licenses

My passport with stapled I-94 and F-1 Visa, stamps with writing from when I left the country and re-entered tons of times

Both of our letters of employment and hubby's 2007 federal income tax return

Both of our pay stubs

Last and present EAD's

Apartment Lease, Utility bills with both our names

Six months of bank statements from our joint account along with bank cards

Pictures, Trip itineraries and boarding passes

Greeting cards sent by our family and among ourselves

Notice Receipts for I-130, I-485, I-765, Biometrics, Interview notice

As far as insurance, it was very expensive for me to be on his auto and medical insurance...but after 90 days I get medical, dental, vision benefits from my employer and I am getting my own vehicle in 2 months as well..so all of that will be handled..

Let me know what you guys think and if i miss anything else that can be included.

Thanks, guys- I'll be reorganizing all our documents and will post what we have- for my piece of mind,lol.

What the heck is going on here.

Even I got my interview date notice today! March 11th! Something must not be right, cause I am away for two weeks and I asked my wife (I have thus far handled everything pretty much) and she said, no today we got an interview notice! Are there other interviews or is this it...the one!?

I cant believe my ears!!!! Hopefully soon my eyes. I felt so far behind you all, and now it seems we are all getting close to that finish line! Please make sure you all update your status/timelines so we know what or how your interviews went and where you at. There are so many of us now. Hopefully soon there will be none

Congrats and good luck to all! PS. Whats all this about 'preparing'? Just the proper paper work and some photos and bills is all we need no? Is there a good thread rgd this for those who have been? OK off to celebrate!!!!!!

Hey Sweets,

You seem like you're well organized and ready. I think there would be no harm in you filling out the new I-864 and having it on hand if it's asked for. That way, there will be no delay if they decide they actually want to see one. I intend on taking a new one with us to interview also. What about tax returns? Have you guys or will you have done your taxes before interview? You could take the joint tax return also? (Hope you are enjoying the job, by the way!) Good luck!

So drinks are now on you?!!! Congratulations, I'm really happy for you since I know it's been quite a stressful time for you. Glad to see you're up to speed now! The preparations are really all the "stuff" it tells you to bring on the appointment letter, the originals of all the 'official' stuff and the marriage proofs, etc. They just want to know see that you are living together as a married couple with co-mingling of assets.

Congratulations to all the new GC holders!

I plan to take a new I-864, too. However, I realized that I-864EZ was the most appropriate form. Is it a prob if we take that even though the previously submitted one was the I-864? I don't think there should be, but we all know what USCIS is like.

[Beantownbabe 1]

I-864EZ was what we used originally - that's what we'll bring again. I doubt it would be a problem for you to bring it. No need to answer all those questions if all is so straightforward!

[triniredbone 0]

Thanks guys.. I will definitely do so..Yea the I-864EZ is actually a shorter version...but the same thing...but I will take it just in case, you never know with these people..

And hubby is still waiting on another W-2 to file this year tax return so I am sure if it will be done by the time of our interview...
