I just found the right phone number for requesting for Tax transcript via the phone somewhere on the VJ trend and thought it might be helpful to share it here 800-829-1040 between 7am-10pm.

Hi Guys,

I'm wondering if I am eligible to use form I-864EZ? Here are the requirements:

(a) I am the petitioner of the family member sponsored on this form -- YES, I am

(b) I am only using my own earned or retirement income -- (I am using my annual salary as my basis for the petition -- would this be a YES?)

© The sponsored immigrant is the only person immigrating based on the underlying visa petition -- YES, he is the only person immigrating

Thank you!

Yes your are eligible, but please, please pay close attention to the income section when completeing this form. It was confusing to me and I put the wrong numbers and got a checklist for it.

Yes, as your annual salary is an earned income you meet all requirements to use that form.

Make sure you don't leave the "address if different" question blank. Just repeat the same address as before, if your mailing and physical address are the same.

Thank you! I felt silly asking but rather be safe than sorry Yes, I have read that a lot of people get checklist for this particular part so I will make sure I do not leave it blank. Thank you!

Thank you! Yes I read that that section causes much trouble. I understood that I need to provide my total income on this section for all three years I am submitting. Is that correct? Also, can you let me know if you left any areas blank, or put N/A or None? Thanks.

I always put N/A im afraid that if I leave it blank they might say I missed something.

Omg i got a checklist. I so.wanna cry

OH my GOD, I'm so sorry !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Praying they speed up quickly.

[Soloenta 2,218]

July 17 scan date. We have a mistake in part four and part six. Do you have any idea or do u.know any common mistake on those part of the form. My husvand is still sleeping so i cant ask him at this moment. I so wanna cry. Im so depressed

Please Copy and Paste the whole thing here so someone can tell you what is wrong if anything. Might be a false checklist, God willing.

[Kulfi 6]

So is there any hope for people who are getting approved now (like me) to think that our spouses can join us by Dec/Jan? My first anniversary is in January and I'm praying that I can spend it with him here in US as it would be nearly impossible for me to go visit.

Finally we got an email from NVC to pay IV fee. Was submitted july 9th, reviewed september 3th

[Soloenta 2,218]

I think you're quite right. As long as I see the website, they seem releasing AOS and IV fee invoices at the same time. Not only there is no process between those two invoice payments but also it makes more sense in the new process. It doesn't really matter whether we pay for one or two invoices, but I believe they're keeping separate invoices for their account processing purpose only. The difference would be like;

Old process:

Release AOS fee invoice and DS-261

Release IV fee invoice after DS-261 is reviewed

New process:

Release DS-261

Release AOS and IV fee invoices after DS-261 is reviewed

It'll be so much faster for those that follow the new process and seems unfair for those including myself that AOS documents were reviewed independently even thought IV documents had been already received by that time. Unless they justify that difference by increased fee. You might as well call and challenge a supervisor saying "Mine should've been done by now in the new process. So please review my documents today!"

I would but the evil ones know where I Live. I'll have to hide in a safe place.

I did suggest you to send the IV package too. It's a new trend NVC started to review packages together. Someone got a checklist and NVC told them that an earlier sent IV package will be reviewed along with the checklist they sent later and to count their "60 days" from the receipt of checklist. In Crisarria's case, her AOS was sent on July 14 and IV on August 12 and both got reviewed together.

It's not too late for me to send it as well, because the package has not yet arrived at the parents-in-law's house. The package I sent contains both the AOS and IV. My question is this: how am I meant to send the IV package without a bar-coded cover sheet?

E: Because I haven't paid my bill, it has not been invoiced yet
