AOS for Interview

[boy1980 0]

My wife already submitted the Affidavit Of Support(AOS) to NVC about 3 months back. My interview is in about 2 weeks from now. The Interview email from NVC doesn't mention anything about AOS.

Question: Do I need to take a new AOS from wife again for interview? If yes, does it also needs to be notarized?

Thank you

The interview letters that I've been seeing (here) usually have a list of documents, and the 'status' of the documents.

I'm surprised you not have this - it's really clear on what to do, how to do.

But.

Usually, a beneficiary will submit a new I-864 form, filled out by the Petitioner,

IF

there has been a big change from the time it was submitted to NVC -

and usually the big change relates to something positive -

ie - MORE MONEY to show

or

A Tax Season has started (like it has, now)

Be Safe, ah? Have her prep a new one with TY 2009 tax return info (including 2008 and 2007, if not submitted with the original submittal thingie to NVC).

Thanks for the reply,

My wife submitted the AOS to NVC, but my interview letter doesn't have anything mention about AOS.

However, I will take my wife's fresh AOS, but my wife hasn't filed for 2009 taxes. Her AOS includes information for Tax year 2006,2007 & 2008. She said she will send me 2009 W-2. She didn't file for 2009 Taxes. She wants to file taxes with me (joint filing).

I think we should be good if we take 2009 w-2. Is there any thing else I am missing, please guide me with your experiences.

Thanks

Just to add to my above post, I can take a letter(statement) from the petitioner(wife) for not filing 2009 taxes. As the consulate website says as follows

The petitioner should execute the Affidavit of Support and submit the following:

Federal income tax return (form 1040 and W-2 forms) for the most recent year, or a statement why the petitioner did not file a federal income tax return in any of the past three years

I am looking for the format of such letter(statement). Please share your experiences.

Thanks
