I-864. Possibly the most confusing form in the world. Help please

[elmcitymaven 9,712]

It sounds like you are unsure of whether you will be moving to the US. You should be sure before you continue the visa process with NVC. The visa once received will expire (I believe 6 months). You can travel to the US to activate the visa but by that point you should already have definite plans to reside in the US.

The NVC should hold your case for one year if you need time to determine your plans.

The OP is filing DCF and therefore has nothing to do with the NVC. The advice you've been giving in this thread is not accurate for DCF. The US salary needs to be $0.

I also don't know why it sounds like the OP is unsure he is moving to the US. Sounds pretty certain to me that he and his USC wife are moving to the US! Best of luck to the OP, I went through this six years ago so I feel your pain!

Trying to complete the I-864 with my wife bad father in law and we're struggling with some of the questions.

Hopefully you guys can help us.

Part 4

We currently live in the uk but are planning to move to the US when I get my visa. What address do we out in for the sponsors address and place of residence as this is likely to change soon.

Also, what type of proof are people submitting to prove intent to move.

Part 6

When we move my wife will be leaving her job and then looking for a new one, do we still list her current salary in part 6 even though it will have finished before we get there. Are do we list the salary for her new job which she'll be starting when we get there?

I'm sure there will be more but these are really stumping Me right now

Thanks for you're help

Hi,

For part 4, put your current UK address

Part 6:

We listed the current salary converted to USD. I think that is what should be written as it says current annual income.

For proof of intent to establish domicile we had the following:

1. One way flight ticket to the US

2. Resignation letter

3. Emails from recruiters and companies with interviews scheduled

4. Letter from cousin stating that my husband and i woudlbe living with them when we got there as well as his(my cousin's) lease agreement

5. Quote from movers

6. Letter from the city of Waltham (where I used to live) stating that I have voted in the last 2 federal elections

7. The certified mail receipts to prove that I filed late taxes.

8. Proof of opening a US bank account - couldn't get a statement as it had been less than a month since I opened the account, but I had some communication and screenshots of my internet banking page.

We got the visa, so I guess it was enough. Since your wife has an offer letter, you can submit that. We had a co sponsor, so I am not 100% sure about part 6 (my income was not sufficient when converted to USD)

We filed in India, and each country is different, but these documents should be sufficient - and all may not even be necessary.

I didnt put zero.

I put my overseas salary at the time of filing.

It appears that the previous poster did the same.

I put $0, as per advice I got here on VJ. No problem at all. I suspect this may be a moot point, but at London putting $0 was perfectly acceptable.
