I accidentally put yes on my husband migrating with me and our two children on the online form.. But they are all USC even though we live in Sweden.. I can't change it as it is completed.. What do I do now? Call them? Wait and explain at the interview? Panicking as everything has gone so smoothly, and I hope this doesn't mess thins up too much..

Just saw this on a thread and thought I'd share here too as it's relevant. You can now get the IRS tax transcripts online (no longer need to wait to receive it by mail)!! Look here: http://www.irs.gov

My comment was not ignorant at all. I simply asked the person what they honestly thought it meant. That others thought my comment was funny had no basis on my asking if the person could understand w

I accidentally put yes on my husband migrating with me and our two children on the online form.. But they are all USC even though we live in Sweden.. I can't change it as it is completed.. What do I do now? Call them? Wait and explain at the interview? Panicking as everything has gone so smoothly, and I hope this doesn't mess thins up too much..

First off: don't worry. Just explain at the interview you accidentally put yes for those questions and they'll fix it. Nothing to panic about. You won't get denied or anything for a little error like that.

Anyone can be a joint sponsor, as long as they're a US citizen/resident.

You don't need to prove relationship in your case. They just need to provide proof of US citizenship/residency.

You have two options:

File now and use 2013/2014 current income, then use 2010, 2011, and 2012 for past tax incomes

Wait to file after 2013 taxes have been filed, then use 2014 as current income, and 2011, 2012, and 2013 as past tax incomes
