:lol: Brilliant!

Thank you so much for your response. I am really hoping for a may interview, do you think that I am over estimating?

I think if you get case complete within the next week you'll have a shot at a May interview, though it's definitely not a sure thing. London is busy and fills up fast. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

No, an ITIN is not needed for MFS. But, there's very few online tax programs that will allow you to file as MFS. That's why you need to file a paper return, so you can physically write in 'NRA' in the SSN field. I'd suggest you read the bottom of the wiki I wrote on the NVC process. I have an entire section dedicated to taxes.

It is highly likely that the tax software that is being used is set to disallow "NRA". You (the "alien" - very big grin!) do NOT have to file an ITIN for her to file, but it is also highly likely that she will not be able to "e-file" her taxes - as the tax firm's software will not allow it.

Thanks for the response, Saylin, Sukie, and everyone else. We decided to go for MFJ since it's bigger return up front, no need to amend later, and a nice proof for marriage. I applied for certified copy of passport at passport canada office. Hopefully things should go smooth with tax return. I'll update you guys if we hit a bump. Thanks again.

Okay I am trying to answer a question for a friend and my mind has gone numb on th eI-864.

If you have a co-sponsor does the petitioner still need to provide all the paperwork with their I-864 i.e. tax transcripts or 1 or all 3 years), current employment, paystubs, employment letter.?

I know the co-sponsor does but what of the petitioner.

That's what we did too the first year. For Canada, it's easy ;)

You can log in and do nothing, that's fine.

Okay I am trying to answer a question for a friend and my mind has gone numb on th eI-864.

If you have a co-sponsor does the petitioner still need to provide all the paperwork with their I-864 i.e. tax transcripts or 1 or all 3 years), current employment, paystubs, employment letter.?

I know the co-sponsor does but what of the petitioner.

Petitioner always has to fill in their own I-864 form. Tax information is required too.

Are they (the petitioner) contributing their income as well or just letting the other sponsor qualify on their own? If the former, then they should income pay stubs and employment letter.
