London DCF CR1 Interview - The final push!

[coolrunnings888 0]

Hi All,

I have my DCF CR1 interview coming up (12/2) and have a few questions if any kind soul here had time to share their thoughts:

1. The dreaded i-864

My wife (sponsor) has been living with me in the UK for the last 6 months as I have gone through this progress. For the purpose of the i-864 does that mean that the UK is her domicile (and she should complete the form on that basis) and then she should demonstrate her intention to re-establish US domicile through showing:

- Copies of bank statements from her UK bank account.

- Photocopies of our tax returns (n.b the actual returns, not the transcripts)

- Her social security card

- Details of her UK contract of employment (which is only temporary in nature)

- Details of her US job application / interviews to date

Ultimately our plan is to use my wife's parents (who live in the US) income to allow them to act as co-sponsor, however just wanted to double check that we can still do this if my wife does not state she has US domicile? All very confusing!

2.I have been offered a job in the US starting in Jan. Would it be worth bringing details of this offer along?

3. Assuming that we are approved, would it be presumptuous to book flights in early Jan or late Dec? From my research it seems like the visa takes about 10-14 days to be issued?

Any thoughts greatly appreciated!
