Backround information

Mark USA - Ana Philippines  - Married 10/10/2015 in Philippines

 

Filing IR-1 and I -864

 #1. Questions should all documents remain in my wife's maiden name including passport she is process renewing it?

Only thing in our married name is marriage license  currently.

 

#2. When I file the I-130 should I include the I-864 with the original filing or wait it to be requested I have heard file both together?

 

#3. when it comes to income requirements ?s

 a. I didn't work 2018 on the tax books I was in a vocational program that paid me 40 hours weekly and is considered non taxable since I am /was in a Veterans career working program i made $8000 over 6 months 2018 non claimable income. Can I include the final pay stub and show as income?

 

 b.  So forth we are using a sponsor with income of $27,000 last year 2018/ He is allso providing 2018 tax return plus last 3 months pay stubs for this year showing income from federal govt job of $35,000 yearly plus retirement benefits of $10,000 TOTAL $45,000 yearly

 c. For myself I did graduate as intern and now I am employed federal govt job (extensive thorough background check)

 -  My pay is over $35,000 yearly my question is can i use the equation of future stable income (have letter from federal veterans hospital states my hourly wages and there offer of employment)of houral x weekly x yearly = income

as proof of income for year 2019? WILL THEY ACCEPT THIS? as substantial enough income so I can be the original petition for sponsor?

 

d.  I also have other income from Federal disability of $140 monthly x 12 = $1680

 .

So my income for 2019 would be the $36800.00 / sponsor's income of $45,000



#4. Final ? actually a thought . I have been extremely vetted already by the Federal Govt all my previous addresses last 5 years finger printed  etc etc etc .. 

One would think that immigration would also see this in my records and would make an easy backround check for me and my process .. 

What are your thoughts?

 

Ok Im sure to have more ?s and need help and I am grateful alls input.

Have you read the instructions that accompany the I-130 form on the USCIS website? I’m going to guess that you have not, given the nature of your questions. Please read them. Twice. 

 

The I-864 is not needed until the I-130 has been approved. But you do need to send other things with the I-130. The instructions will tell you what you need to send. 

Timeline in brief:

Married: September 27, 2014

I-130 filed: February 5, 2016

NOA1: February 8, 2016 Nebraska

NOA2: July 21, 2016

Interview: December 6, 2016 London

POE: December 19, 2016 Las Vegas

N-400 filed: September 30, 2019

Interview: March 22, 2021 Seattle

Oath: March 22, 2021 COVID-style same-day oath

 

Now a US citizen!

1) use her current legal name,  for a filipina you know what it is

2) i864 is submitted to nvc AFTER the petition had been approved 

3) revisit in a year when time is nearer

4) maybe,  maybe not

YMMV
