February 2015 Interviews

[dwheels76 5,468]

Maybe her DWheelsness will put this in the first post:

This line on your P4 letter:

"Bring updated Federal income tax information to the interview. If a sponsor filed an I-864 (Affidavit of

Support) and provided the NVC with proof of an IRS Federal income tax extension in lieu of a Federal

income tax return, bring the sponsor's most recent Federal income tax return to the visa interview."

means:

*IF* (and only if) your sponsor (and/or co-sponsor(s)) filed an extension for the prior tax year you must bring the completed tax return to your interview.

Taxes returns are due on April 15th of the year. IF a sponsor or co-sponsor files an extension, this gives you until October of the tax year to file your return. Your embassy/consulate wants to have the MOST RECENT tax return in their files. If you submitted your I-864 without the CURRENT tax return, you must bring it to the interview. If you submitted the most recent tax return with your I-864 YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING!

2014 Tax returns are not due until April 15th, 2015. Therefore, you do not have to submit 2014 tax return info to the Embassy/Consulate if your interview date is prior to April 16th in any given year. This line on the P4 letter is just boilerplate language.

I know it's confusing. I did the same thing. My I-864 was submitted on April 12, 2014 but was not acknowledged by NVC until April 15, 2014. I submitted my 2013 tax returns with the I-864 package. I brought my 2014 returns to the interview (I attended the interview with my spouse), thinking this line on the P4 applied to our case - and the clerk at the Consulate didn't even accept them.

Rest easy! You are fine!

It could also be that nvc is taking so flippin log they want to make sure all tax documents are current. I know many who don;t have 2013 at NVC now been there so dang long so when they get to interview they will have to have so I am sure its just to cover their bases.

People should just be aware to make sure they are all up to date and since its end of year I would take that last paystub with me it has what you made better than a tax form ya know.

hi does anybody know what's the process in changing your interview location? and how long it takes for the new consulate to accomodate that reuqest? thanks

It depends on where you are moving location to. It is a log process. takes a few months. If you already have interview means you are done with NVC. You now you have to contact your embassy and tell them to forward to the embassy you want to go through not an easy thing because you have paperwork to show that you qualify to be able to go through that embassy.

Good luck.

Hello People.

I hv my P4 letter now.

Thanks alot for your information

Congratulations. Whats your case complete and interview date so you can be added to the spreadsheet.

THREE MISTAKES ON MY HUSBAND's ADDRESS ON THE P4 LETTER.. WILL REQUESTING FOR ANOTHER LETTER WITH CORRECTED ADDRESS DELAY THE PROCESS?? WILL IT TAKE LONGER FOR NVC TO SEND ME ANOTHER P4 LETTER?? CAN WE USE THIS LETTER FOR MEDICALS UNTIL THE CORRECTED ONE COMES IN EMAIL?? THIS IS SOOOOO FRUSTRATING!!! :(

Don't request another letter. One you won't got one and two an address is not of importance. This one is fine long as the name is right. You are fine.

And congratulations on the Interview date. I have added you to the spreadsheet.

Ok no one answered me so I'll ask one more time. I found the confirmation for the DS-260 but can't find how to get the confirmation page for the DS-261 can anyone help? Or is the confirmation page for DS-261 the receipt?

Also if not mistaken the Biometrics (Finger printing and pictures) are done at the Embassy the day of and before the interview correct? Thank you in advance.

There is no confirmation page for the DS-261 but there is one for the DS-260 you need to print off. For your embassy fingerprinting is done at interview. You are good to go.

Get medical done whenever you want. Now is good since you are a month away.

Make sure you visit your info page for your embassy some very important information about documents.

Woke up this morning and received our P4 letter, we got our interview scheduled for the 25th of February!!

I am hoping someone can help me with one of the notes in the letter:

"Bring updated Federal income tax information to the interview. If a sponsor filed an I-864 (Affidavit of

Support) and provided the NVC with proof of an IRS Federal income tax extension in lieu of a Federal

income tax return, bring the sponsor's most recent Federal income tax return to the visa interview."

We are using a joint- sponsor, both the joint sponsor and my wife sent in their AoS with the latest IRS federal income tax return of 2013.

2014 has not been done yet, is it the 2013 tax return one I should bring?

Or what are they asking me for here?

Thanks!

they are talking about 2013 taxes. 2014 taxes are not due till the 15 of april.

im worried about the aos too..
