I'm currently preparing my AOS, have read through a lot of the documents and just want to make sure I am doing this right.

I am the USC, currently residing in Canada. (My wife is Japanese.) We are waiting things out together in Canada.

My company is planning to send me to the US once my wife's green card is ready, and in preparation I've gotten an apartment in the US and already set up bank accounts, electric accounts, cable accounts, etc. for it.

Therefore, on the i-864:

-I write domicile as Canada

-I write a letter stating my intent to establish domicile in the United States as soon as my spouse's visa is ready and show proof of electric/cable/bank/credit card statements

Is this correct?

Also, regarding the income:

-My income is above federal poverty guidelines, but due to the foreign income tax exclusion, total income is low

-However, my company is transferring me to the US, therefore I expect this income to continue after I move to the United States

Based on my readings of this website, I can argue that my foreign-earned income can count toward my sponsorship and I do not need another sponsor. Is that correct?

As an update we haven't received any email yet from NVC stating our case number and IIN and BIN though we got it by phone. Maybe tomorrow. I am waiting for this to print so I can start my police clearance in Singapore to be processed. I need this letter from NVC.

Also, waiting for the acceptance response for the opt-in email I sent in.

The portal payment - AOS not invoiced.

DS261 unavailable.

Besides, I have accomplished something today, after my blood checked for immunity ( required vaccines), my family physician confirmed that I am immune and gave me a copy of the results.

And he asked me when was the last time I got TdP, i don't remember. so he gave me one shot.

So, aside from MMR, TdP. Varicella, do I need Influenza vaccine? And did I miss anything? idea9dv.gif

The operator said that we might get our case number on the first week of March because of the weather delays ClockWatch2.gif

But I still am thankful that we're only waiting for weeks at a time instead of a lifetime at USCIS

Or apparently I am wrong, because I am a USC, I should write domicile as US and then show all my documents supporting the fact that I'll re-establish this?

I took this approach, and demonstrated in what ways I've maintained US domicile over the years, and steps I'm now taking to fully reestablishing US domicile. Any opinions from others here?

Btw, anyone who has done this, what will I need to prove this?

Or is it better for me to use my father as a joint-sponsor? (In that case, how do I do that, given that his residence and mine are different.)

Make sure when you're quoting someone, to put your answer OUTSIDE of the quote tongue.png

To answer, no that's not a problem. When NVC gets to your DS-261, they'll be looking at the most up-to-date one.

Thanks so much Saylin, you lessen my anxiety :-) i'll always remember too to reply outside of the quote :-)
