Ok, thanks guys. Welp it is what it is now. At least it's an easy fix. Getting more paystubs together now. Better safe than sorry! I'm stressing my poor husband out. He's worried about being illegal. I keep reassuring him he's fine.

Thanks again.

Do you know where you have seen this cripps?

It was part of a recent thread on the main page. Someone got a 3 reasons on an RFE for an I-184. Missing tax returns and not filling out the household size. The responses are probably computer generated based on scanned documents. It's even possible on the above post that the line was filled in but the scanner misinterpreted the number.

Guyss i'm excited!! Uscis case status for ead changed to new card is being produced Hope everything goes smoothly for everyone!

Woohooo! It's good to know that some cases are moving quick :) That keeps me motivated lol

Hey guys,

It might be a dumb question but where can I check the status of my case? Thanks!

I always go to google.com ant type USCIS case status. It's usually the first link :)

Yep! That's your whole problem right there.... a 1040 has to be accompanied by the w2... (or you can send the irs tax transcript instead of those two)

The second point is only a standard point generated since the W2 wasn't submitted... it only means you didn't provide the necessary proof that she makes the stated income...

From what you're telling me it's only the w2's missing.. seen tons of those RFE's on here

Easy fix and no co-sponsor necessary

Oh my goodness I feel like I am going to get a RFE too. I didn't send the W2 X.X WHYYYYYY!!!

Today I got approved for my first American credit card!! YAAAY!

It feels good to finally have some of my own stuff going on

I know that feeling! After being depressed because my husband's bank could't add me in his account...I just found out that I can buy a Floridan Disney Pass without the Florida ID (which requieres the GC)! So if I get the tickets it would mean that I don't have to be at the house 24/7 :D I am beyond happy haha let's see what the hubby says about it lol. Disney isn't cheep either. But it's nice to have a window open and be ME who decides if I go or not. Not like the bank when they gave me a big no :(

It's only fun if I use it to buy stuff I don't need LOL

Now, seriously, getting this kind of thing makes me feel not so much stuck on limbo anymore, it's refreshing.

December is ending and that EAD is approaching...

Things are finally starting to take a turn for the best. Had clinical depression the last couple months due to the whole change in my life. Finally getting out of it. VJ support was invaluable

I don't know if I should call it clinical depression but last weekend I was crying and stressed out for everything. The fact that I can't visit my country, can't drive, can't be accepted by the bank I wanted, etc. made me feel like an ilegal person. And I felt that it wasn't fair to feel that way beacuse we did AAAALLL the legal steps and we have invested a lot of money in this process :( But I know what you meant about the depression (: Now my days are brighter thanks to Disney lol

Same here...it's so mental. I was jumping in front of the mailbox when I saw the NOA1 hardcopy. Especially cause I never got an email or text and I was close to 30 days. So today still no letter for Bio in the mail. Lets see tmw

BTW: I just realized that this forum is more for K1 people. I won the GC through the DV Lottery. I hope its still ok to post and read here. It just helps so much sharing the waiting time and the thousand thoughts I have about the process.

As they told you before, du bist immer always willkommen! or something like that :) but check the other forum too because you can find specific things about your process.

I can not believe that it's been a WHOLE YEAR since we were document hunting for the i-129F petition. In December of last year my now husband had just left from a 3 month visit with me and I was heartbroken not knowing when I'd see him again. Now we are married and will have our first xmas together! It's a bit "pinch-myself-unreal"

You are right! well, we did everything in October. So it's been more than a year for me lol. But I now the punch myself unreal feeling :) it's amazing how much we have accomplished!

Received our RFE letter in the mail today and I am beyond livid.

It says that the sponsor does not meet the 125% poverty guidelines. UMMMMM hello I meet it by over 2x what is required.

It says to send in all tax documents, W2s, for the recent year. UMMMM hello I submitted the past 3 years tax transcripts, W2, and letter from employer.

It's one thing if I forgot something or didn't meet requirements. It's another when the adjudicator cannot read what is in front of them. Complete and utter waste of time, paper, and postage!

That is weird! Please keep us posted.

Thanks for looking it up. I actually read that one, but for that person it's stated that it's not filled out which Lioness didn't mention... Confusing, not convinced this is the same rfe.

Maybe it's like Rcripps said the scanner is not picking up the handwritten numbers....OR maybe I did forget to write them in. :unsure:

I thought I did.

I wrote a cover letter to include with the RFE responds that outlines everything..household size, income, and the list of items included.

It's looking at 2 lines on the form I bet. Income and Household size. Part 5 line 8 and Part 6 line 15. It does a quick calc based on the scanned results and spits out an RFE if there is a mismatch. It's possible the exceptions aren't even being looked at before the RFE automatically goes out.

I can buy the scanner explanation.... Maybe your 2's look like 3's? ;)

Well you have this covered! Just a shame on the wasted time is all...

Clau I know how you feel. This process has made me incredibly stressed and anxious hah. It's so overwhelming that I can't help but cry. I keep worrying about getting a RFE (which I'm sure I will) and I keep telling myself to calm down. Not being able to do anything is driving me crazy! Plus yesterday was my niece's bday and I am very homesick :( Soon it'll be my first Christmas and bday without my family. Sorry everyone for using this as a diary lol.

Ya, the wasted time for something like this sucks. One of the reasons I did everything on the computer. Nothing handwritten except signatures. A PDF program that allows adding text to a form was a lifesaver.

Awwww I'm i your position as my b-day is Jan 1st.... We've always had special traditions for it seeing since it's the day after New Years and with the risk of sounding like a spoiled kid (lol) It's been "my special day". I'm gonna miss those traditions... but hopefully we can start brand new ones instead :)(L)

Yes! I love having my birthday on a holiday haha :P Makes me feel special too. I am definitely looking forward to having our own traditions with my husband! I have to remind myself that I knew this process was going to be long and that it'll be worth it in the end. :)

Guys, about the I-864 not registering the numbers, it's because they use a 2D barcode to scan the data.

That means the form has to be completed either entirely by computer or entirely by hand. If you mix, they'll see the first page is computer-printed and they'll scan the whole form, and the handwritten information won't be captured. That's why the RFE was generated. You need to resend the I-864 with all the required documentation, and make sure you complete it entirely by computer or entirely by hand. I had no trouble filling it on computer using Adobe Reader, the household size numbers worked fine.

Actually I'm sure I've read somewhere that you can add by hand. I'm aware of this barcode which is why I looked it up since this was my concern exactly. I'll see if I can find that info again..

Really? Some parts of the forms I had to fill out by hand. For example my name because it didn't fit, and the apartment number because for some reason it wouldn't let me add it on the computer. And some parts of the I-864 too... now that's discouraging.
