I've been thinking this as I followed this thread lately, too. There's so much negativity here recently and much of it comes from obsessive phone calls with long wait times and less-than-charming oper

OK two questions about the i-864... first of all, which parts of this should I be putting n/a or none in order to not get a checklist, like income from other family members or what???? I did fill in mailing address if different cause I know that one,

and second question... I am living abroad but I do have a job offer for when I move back to the US, so on my current annual income, on the employer letter it states what my approximate annual income will be, but that is considering 12 months and I obviously wont be working for 12 months this year, so.... do I put the amount I will make estimating when I will start or the full year's income?

I think you've got the first part correct, it seems mostly to be the address issue that crops up.

As for income, they want the 'current year (2014) income', so it would be what you make after starting the job when you arrive until the end of the year.

"If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you."

"Life is not what it's supposed to be. It's what it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference."

I'm hoping for some kind of confirmation that my AOS is A-okay this week!

So when I called Friday, it was under review, soooo if I don't see a false checklist early this week should I appropriately freak out and assume I'm getting a real checklist?

5/21/2016: Mailed I-751 packet to CSC

5/23/2016: NOA1

7/29/2016: Biometrics Appointment

11/22/2016: I-751 Approved!

Looks good! Don't forget your I-864 forms for both petitioner and joint sponsor. I don't think petitioner has to include any kind of proof that they are an US citizen either. That was already confirmed at the USCIS stage. Also if you are not in China you don't have to wait for the confirmation email from EP. You can send your documents in and you will be automatically enrolled. (Call to confirm with NVC but that is what they told me and several other people when we called in about EP). Good luck :)

Yeah, I thought Pakistan was on the list as well, but apparently not. Even though, Pakistan still isn't an easy place to go through.

If anything, it seems like it's significantly harder than the majority of MENA countries aside from the ones in NA like Egypt, excluding Morocco. Just an observation based on people who cite AP.

Hi VJ folks,

I'm somewhat confused here. Been reading some post regarding AOS but I haven't got the clarification that I need.

My husband's income doesn't meet the guideline so he needs a joint sponsor for the affidavit of support. He's brother volunteered to be his joint sponsor, however he will not be living in the same house with them next month. My question is, will he (brother) be filling up i184 or just the 184a form?
