RFE

[Adriana Watson 2]

Hello,

I need help...

I got my 2nd RFE letter last saturday, it is asking for the same docs we already submitted for the 1st RFE (letter of employment from my husband's new job and Pay stubs or other documentation of pay for the last 6 months) we have a joint sponsor because my husband didn't meet the requirements for the last 3 years, but now my husband has a new job.

For the 1st RFE we sent the wire transfers from the Bank with the name of the Company on them.

So I called the USCIS today asking why were they asking for this again and the officer told me that what we sent was not enough proof for them, that he has to provide pay stubs or other documentation of pay and they don't give me any specifics.

The problem is that his Company doesn't have pay stubs, this is a Development Company based in Anguilla with offices in Chicago, so my husband is traveling back and forth all the time because he is working on a Project out of the US right now.

Do you think this is going to be a problem? What else can I provide instead of pay stubs??? We don't know what else to do, do you think they can deny my application because my husband works out of they country and travels to US every 3 weeks...???

Thank you in advance for all your help!

Hi there,

I'm no expert but let me list some things:

1-Notarized Letter from Company stating how much he makes and saying there are no paystubs.

2.-Notarized Letter from bank.

3.-Bank statements reflecting the money deposited.

4.-Copy of checks or money transfers.

??????????

What else people?

I hope someone will be able to give you a better answer than I can but I just wanted to give you a start. I also received two RFEs asking for the same thing and it was something I did not have and that did not exist. I had to get a little creative in my response.

I would suggest getting something from your husband's company on company letterhead stating they do not issue pay stubs and explaining how they pay their employees. See if there is anything issued directly from the company showing history of payment to your husband. How does the company keep track of his pay? How do they let the bank know when and how much to pay your husband? Maybe try to find something on the US side relating to the legalities of receiving income from an overseas institution to show that there is nothing wrong with the way they are paying him.

If at all possible I would pay for a consultation with an immigration attorney to try and get other possible ideas.

Another thought, when your husband goes to file taxes what is he going to use as proof of his income? Can you get a copy of that with income up to this date?

Before I sent in my 2nd RFE I asked myself "would an idiot be able to figure this out"?

Good luck to you.

Thank you for all your help!

My husband called and his Company will send us all the information in regards to the wire transfers for his salary and the will include a letter of explanation and will get it notarize.

I Hope it works!!

Thank you again!
