I have already completed one and was just asking if you thought they may except it on the basis of me moving back with the current backup. I will clip all of my stuff together for him to hand over at the window. As you said he can keep the I-864 and I-864A my sister & her husband completed along with their taxes, marriage cert & birth certs etc just in case they wont accept mine.

I still have my Florida drivers license which doesnt expire until 2017, voters registration card & bank statement all with my moms address. I just wasnt sure if they classified any of that towards the domicile part as its my moms address.

We were APPROVED!!!! Thank you soooooo much for your help. Also, they still require copies and asked for ours so I don't know why that part isn't consistent. It seemed that the copies they wanted were for police cert, marriage, birth cert etc and not for the tax returns.

Yes, self employed have schedules like C and SE included as part of their personal tax returns, but the deciding amount is still Line 22 on the 1040. I thought you meant a business tax return like "XYZ Inc."

Intent to domicile is as good as having domicile. Did you read the I-864 FAQs on the London website?

Click all the topics, especially Domicile. http://london.usembassy.gov/faqs-i864.html. The fact that you have terminated your job or given notice, or listed your UK property for sale, or given written notice on a lease is evidence of intent.

Yes, people have said they don't want copies of documents anymore and give back the originals, but I would hate to have them accidentally keep something I hadn't copied first.

Congratulations.

So can you elaborate on the domicile discussion. Any issues there?

And what about your Affidavit of Support? Did you try with just your settlement or did you use your sister?

The photocopies of the personal documents you want back make sense to me. I have no idea why a few people said they were told not needed. I would have taken them too since their website says so.

To be honest I think they just went off my sisters I-864 and her husbands I-864 A. When I went in they asked for the affidavit of support I initially gave them mine. They then asked is there a joint sponsor and I said if I dont meet the US domicile requirements I have a joint sponsor. He then asked for my tax return (1 yr - I had 3 they didnt want to know) then asked for my sisters I-864 and 1 yr tax return (again had 3 yrs) only wanted 1.I then said they are married so I had her husband sign an I -864A which he took. So to be honest I dont know which they accepted but I am thinking my sisters. He didnt ask for any of the proof of residence (Florida drivers license, voters regis or social secuirty card w US address). All this was at the first window he did ask how long we had been married and asked for copies and originals of important doc's. Marriage cert, any divorce decrees, police cert & birth cert of husband and sister along with sisters spouse.

The second window they asked where we met, how long ago , re: medication my spouse was taking , who we were staying with etc. I did say I had my settlement agreement showing my payout and that I had emails showing I was actively looking within the US at my current firm but he didn't want to know. Also a letter from my aunt /uncle saying we would be staying with them until I found a job and place to live again wasnt concerned.

I hope this helps...as you guys have helped me to no end. If there is anything else I can answer just ask.
