The immigration process is a very complex process and it is best to understand EVERY step of the process from beginning to end. The best approach is to know everything before you start. We have seen cases get absolutely ruined because people did not plan ahead.

 

Everything you need to know can be found online or here. Here is info on all the steps of the spousal visa.

Here is the full list of guides for future reference for things like getting a SSN and what to do after you arrive in the US.

Please take some time research. You have submitted your case so fortunately you have some time to catch on knowledge. Do NOT practice the learn as you go method on this. It can be costly if mistakes can made. 

 

Remember, law number 29 of the 48 Laws of Power is to plan all the way to the end. The last thing you want to happen is to be scrambling for something you need that you did not know about.

 

best of luck to you.

It said on the paperwork to send the original birth certificate and other stuff.. i don‘t think i can bring it again when they already have the originals? Is that normal?

 

well we just send in what they request. They send an email what they want, and we send it. I just want to know how many steps we still have to go before the interview

It would help us a lot if your time line was filled in with the steps you have done.......It is difficult to know exactly where you are in the process.

You‘re right! Well, we filed the petition and got approved. After that i had to login to the website where you answer all the quetions about previous employment, adresses, my parents information and The criminal history. We submitted that along with the paperwork (marriage/birth certificate, passport copy, passport photos  ..) after that we did the i-864 (but we will ave a joint sponsor if needed at the end) then we got an email saying we need to submit poove of domicile and the last 3 tax transcripts. We did that now.

Are you doing DCF (Direct Consular Filing) or CR-1?  To whom did you send original documents?  NVC or the consulate?

To the Consulate in frankfurt Germany

[carmel34 3,634]

From your description of where you are at in the process, now you just wait for the Frankfurt Consulate to notify you of the interview date and time.

No, my aunt moved there, doing the same paperwork with her husband and she daid they had to bring bank stuff too?

[Just Paul 4,595]

It depends on context.  Every case is different.

 

You would only have to take statements if your I864 is asset based.

 

Bank statements can also be used to show co-mingling of funds or proof of income or domicile.

Ss far as i know were his parents her sponsors. But the consulate still told my aunt they had to show 40000$ in a savings account (the sponsor has alot of money) .. weird.. i guess i just wait if they want someone else after now

So you are now living apart? In your previous thread you refused to, even though there is no other way for the USC to establish domicile. Or did you find a joint sponsor? 

 

You will both need medicals. Do you have permission from your son’s father to remove him from the country?
