I-864 fee

[cschwa 0]

Hello,

I just finished sending two RFE's for my wife's adjustment of status. We are unsure that one of the RFE's will be accepted since we do not have the NOA 2 for the I-130 (although they say they sent it). While I was looking through the papers I noticed two forms choice of agent and I-864 fee. On the top of the choice of agent form it said that it was due on December 31st, 2006. What is this form for? Do I need to fill this form out to continue the adjustment of status process? That is, if this form is not filled and sent in does that affect the AOS process? Also, if I fill this out and send it in does it keep the IR1/CR1 visa active. So you know, my wife is here on a K3 visa right now.

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

Since your wife is adjusting status she should send back the DS-3032 form marked to indicate that she is already in the USA and is pursuing adjustment of status. That way the NVC will know to send the approved I-130 petition back to the USCIS and why.

The immigrant visa is not active - it has not even been applied for yet. What you have is an approved I-130 petition at the NVC waiting for a visa to be applied for while the USCIS needs the approved petition for the adjustment of status application.
