We got approved! Actually we got approved on Aug 20th. I just forgot to update everyone on this site until the green card arrived.

IF anyone needs to know, the current I-865 only requires you to show 125% poverty level during the previous tax year, not all three. Our original filing only included my tax info (plenty of income in 2009, but 2008 and 2007 were below the poverty line as I was a student). We filled out co-sponsor documentation for my parents "just in case" and took it to the interview - he never brought it up, so I asked him at the end of the interview and he informed us that only the previous year matters.

(I think I remember reading this in the guide/instructions, I just wanted everyone to know that it's true!)

Thanks for all the help - couldn't have done it without VisaJourney. (Also, don't pay a lawyer for the paperwork unless you're both a) rich, and b) busy.)

Awesome! Congrats :dance:

Wondering if anyone from May filers is planning on going back to their home country for Christmas and New Year.

Not us - I don't think we'll be back in Kenya for a few years, unfortunately. It costs an arm and a leg to fly there & Sifa doesn't have much family. We'll be here :)

Well, I received my SSN yesterday.

Woohoooooo!!! That gives me great hope for CSC transfers :dance: :dance: Congrats!!!

Yeah it costs a fortune in taxes to fly anywhere now, it's crazy! I don't have much family left, so I think this will be the last Christmas back home, kinda sad, but it will be good to see the family I do have.

I'm sure you will have a great time :) Even when we lived in Kenya we typically just spent holidays just the two of us, either traveling (one year we went to Zanzibar for Christmas - awesome!) or just hanging out at his house. I think he'll be slightly overwhelmed by American Christmas, but I'm looking forward to having him here this year FINALLY!
