Majority of importance is given to current income.

After that 2013 tax return and so forth. It would not matter if you made a billion dollars in 2010 if you didn't have any of it left for assets and were currently unemployed.

Thanks for answering.

Hi I check Saylin's forums and faqs all the time, but it just leads to more questions

I know, right?! :)

For me, it helped reading and taking notes several times. Once I had an overall picture of the NVC process, I decided to focus on one step at a time. When I was where you are, I couldn't think about all this AOS stuff, for example, without thinking my head would explode!!!! I had to focus on the next step, which was: "when is the case expected to arrive at NVC and how I find that out."

Showing now. Although the consulate is showing as Armenia, so please update.

Added to the spreadsheet. When did NVC receive your case?

NVC focuses on current and the most recent year income. My husband was below the 2nd and 3rd years as well and we had no issues.

Now, the consulate/embassy have their own guidelines, so at the time of the interview, a joint sponsor may be requested, but you never know.

Thanks Saylin

So my husband met the lawyer first time since the NOA2 and when asked about next step all he said was that he would get an e-mail and then he would make the payments. He didn't tell anything about getting the packages ready except he took my husband's tax papers. I think I am going to have to get the packets ready on my own. Just waiting on the police certificate and then my IV packet will be ready. When my husband asked about what we will need to send to NVC the lawyer said they will already receive our file from USCIS and it will have everything they need. USCIS had asked for our original marriage certificate so the lawyer said that will be forwarded to NVC.

 

 

I'm the beneficiary, wife of USC.
12/30/2012: Got engaged.
1/16/2013: Got married in India.

I-130:
2/28/2013: Attorney mailed the I-130 from a U.S. address.
3/4/2013: Priority date, NOA1.
11/6/2013: Case was transferred to Nebraska Service Center.

1/6/2014: 60 days of transfer are up, put in an e-request, given 30 days' time. Contacted the senator. Senator asked to wait till Feb 6 and if nothing then she will do something.
2/5/2014: Website status changed to RFE.
2/10/2014: Attorney gets RFE. They need G325A and photos of both me and husband, original marriage certificate, copy of marriage record and it's translation.
2/15/2014: Mailed the requisite documents to husband.
2/19/2014: Documents received by husband.
2/24/2014: RFE mailed.
2/26/2014: Case status changed to RFE review.
3/6/2014: After 367 days, NOA2.

After approval kept calling NVC but NVC always had one reply, file was not in their system. Husband too called USCIS National Customer Service Center and was told case was sent to NVC.
4/2/2014: Write to NSCFollowup to know about the status of the petition.
4/10/2014: Put in a ?service request with USCIS starting with OVP to locate case.
4/16/2014: Reply from NSCFollowup that the U.S. law prohibited that office from responding to anyone other than the petitioner and to have the petitioner contact them.
4/18/2014: Sent email to NVC Research to locate the case.
4/22/2014: Petitioner sent email to NSCFollowup
5/14/2014: Receive email from NVC Research that they do not have a record of receiving the petition.
5/16/2014: Congressman's immigration caseworker contacted supervisor at NSC who said the petition is pending and will be dispatched in two weeks.
5/27/2014: Petitioner received response from NSCFollowup that the case was pending an internal extended review. Really?
6/19/2014: USCIS case status change, "On June 19, 2014, we shipped this case..."
7/1/2014: Case received at NVC.
7/14/2014: NVC case number assigned.

8/7/2014: AOS and IV packages delivered to NVC.
8/8/2014: AOS and IV packages put into the system (scanned).
9/20/2014: Get the 60-day email.
9/30/2014: Case Complete!
10/3/2014: Interview scheduled for November 7.
