Should the co-sponsor's i-864 be taken to interview?

[CommittedBirds 0]

Hello, if someone knows the answers to my questions, plz give help.

I am the beneficiary at the US consulate in Casablanca Morocco, i have questions regarding the sponsorship package (i-864).

We've been through NOIR and finally got reaffirmed, but in their letters, they only focused on the bona fide, but nothing related to the sponsorship, knowing that at my previous interview in 2012, the CO stated that the insufficiency of my wife's income is the primary cause of denial. Now, my wife has made enough $ in 2012 (about $40,000.00 but half of that comes from her IRA Individual Retirement Account, and the other half comes from her job) but in 2011 she made roughly $14,000.00 and $ 6,000.00 in 2010.

- Does it always matter that she didn't make enough in 2011 & 2010 ?

- Do the consulate accept the money from the IRA?

We found a co-sponsor, he got retired last year but has made over $90,000.00 in 2012,2011,2010. Currently he gets his retirement income & social security income.

- Does the consulate accept his current income?

- Does the consulate take into consideration the annual income he made in the last three years?

- Should the co-sponsor's i-864 & its supporting documents be taken to the interview or be submitted to the uscis?

I'm desperate for answers, my interview is in 20 days!

Thank you so much

what kind of visa? if it;s cr1 affidavit of support goes to the NVC

I think if your petition was reaffirmed, it goes straight back to the consulate, thereby not stopping at NVC again. With that being said, I think bringing all the paperwork again is a smart idea. If Mounir412 sees your post, OP, he may have a more concrete answer, as his case was recently reaffirmed as well. From cases that I have read, They ask for a new medical, new police reports, etc....so new I-864 would make sense. Good luck

It's an IR-1 visa but initially was CR-1.

P.S. i appreciate so much your contribution to my thread, it's weird that users in MENA forum seem willing to contribute to only threads where they can criticize others rather than offering help, notably the ones who have been in here more than 3 years or so, mostly women, I've been posting threads asking questions, i get hundreds of views but no answers. We're suppose to do good to each other in this world.

Yes, our case was reaffirmed, so, based on what you've said, our i-864 needs to go straight to the consulate, got it.

thanks bzaf for your input

That is my understanding, that you will bring it to the interview. Do an advanced search for reaffirmed cases and see what comes up. I know I've read about it on here a number of times. About what the 2nd interview was like, and the papers that have been asked for. You're welcome bzaf.
