You will be required to submit copies of your returns (or IRS Transcripts thereof) for the most recent 3 years if I remember properly.

I would get those filed quickly, and request IRS transcripts for them right away.

Best of luck!

Just as I thought!

Thank you and I will do just that!

Wait for the packet 3 from USM- Tokyo.. From there she can starts submitting online application and pay visa fees before she can sets her interview. She can starts gathering civil documents , police clearance and medical examination once packet 3 receives.

Good luck on your journey!

Hello all,
First things first, we got NOA2 on August 15th!! :joy: Thank you all for the words of encouragment. Now just hoping I don't mess up any paperwork!
Speaking of which... we are still waiting on the fist packet to arrive, is there anything that I can get ready in advance?
Also, for any of you who are/were also living abroad, how do I pass as a sponser? We have a joint sponser, but I also have to be one, right? How does that work? And how much money do I need in an American bank account?
I've been good about filing my Federal taxes each year (a bit late but done yearly), but I haven't filed state taxes in almost 10 years. Any advice?

We filed a I129f, it was approved on aug 24 and on monday this week, sept 14 it was delivered to the USEM in Tokyo.

Does anyone know how long it takes for them to send the packet?

Thank you

I am also looking into medicals and I saw that the Tokyo medical and surgical clinic has the option of picking up the results the same day at 5pm for a 8000 yen fee.
