Interview documents

[G&Mhk 1]

My wife's interview is in 2 days. I just noticed that I don't have a copy of the signed 130 I mailed in a year ago. I have the PDF form which I can print out again but not a copy of the one I actually printed and signed. Same goes for my correction 864. Is she going to need those at the interview?

I have a corrected 864 from my co-sponsor/joint sponsor 'cause that was the last remaining thing that had a mistake/omission on it.

I have copies of the original 864 package. We did the 260 and 261 online and have receipt pages. Will they even look at that stuff?

Hi,

I am in the same position, I don't have copies of some of the I-130 docs, but as far as I am aware, your entire package (I-130 + I-864's are sent to your embassy/consulate), so in theory you shouldn't need anything.

You could always print another copy and back date and sign it. I think also if it's been a while since you actually submitted your I-130 (which for most people this is the case), a lot of people take new/additional supporting evidence with, like new photos, etc. (Just to be safe, along with the original supporting evidence sent).

None the less, may I ask what was wrong with your I-864a (Joint sponsor), I also have to get a corrected I-864 (Household member) and am trying to find someone with the same error.

_________________________________'s income indicated on line 11 of the I-864A does not correspond to that shown on the most recent tax return and W-2(s).

Our co-sponsor files a joint tax return, so hope that's the issue. But not sure what we should be inputting.... Back to the drawing board.

Thanks for the reply. It's hard to have evidence beyond photos since our bills here are in the name of the apartment building owner and I can't add my wife to my US accounts until she gets a SSN obviously.

I think I had to resubmit the 864 twice. The first time there were errors in a few places. On my co-sponsor's the total number of immigrants was wrong -- left it blank 'cause that's what it seemed to want since my wife was listed elsewhere on the form already. The 2nd time we corrected it the instructions were clearer so here's hoping it's not still wrong. And my original 864 had wrong salary -- I converted it to USD and put down what I make here but they want the amounts to equal what is on your tax return...so if you are overseas and make less than 90K USD, then that number might actually be a negative number.
