October 2017 I-129F Filers, Part II

[DeepakChani 738]

For the I134, when it says submit copies for your 3 most recent tax returns. Does this mean sending copies of the 1040 form?

I just received my hard copy of NOA2 today!!! 

 

I-129 package sent   3 October 2017

Received                     6 October 2017

NOA1 notice             11 October 2017

NOA2 notice               3 April 2018

 

Looking forward to finally being with my fiancee.  As of this time we still do not have her police clearance from Denmark (she stayed there for a year back in 2009*2010).  The process took 174 days from NOA1.

Hm, where does it ask that? Or are you looking at the binding affidavit (I-864)?

 

My embassy is only asking for the most recent 1040, together with the I-134. That is in addition to the I-134 instructions however, because I can't see that the I-134 asks for a tax return at all, unless you're self-employed (which my fiancé is not). So check with your embassy what they will want for this stage. Later on (AoS) I believe you will need the three most recent 1040s.

Yes but that requirement is connected to embassy requirements not the I-134 which I think what Liz meant.

 

japan only want one year of tax returns for example.

Ok so I can have him get a notarized letter and scan and email it to me right?

Just a copy of a letter signed by him will do. Notary is not necessary. If you do a search for "Fiance letter of intent," you will find many templates you can just copy/paste and fill in the relevant info to your case.

I think just like @Naes said it depends on your embassy. My fiance is a Pakistani national so we just want to go the extra mile. The embassy doesn't require more than what's general to most embassies around the world but I've been in touch with people on here who went through medical and interview recently and heard about some crazy demands.

It depends how stable your position is and nature of evidence you are submitting.  For my initial K-1 (for same fiance) I did not motorized my statements, copy of pay stubs, job letter etc and visa was issued.

Do you guys skype?  Print out your history on skype.  a lot less pages than whatsapp but you can also email yourself your whole whatsapp history of conversations with him ( i hope you archive ) and then just print out random times and explain that they are random because printing out the whole history would be too many pages.  I hope that helps  good luck

Most embassies don't like 'emailing'. They prefer screenshots, directly from the site.
