Because that determination is made at the interview. If you have no US income, you will need a lot of liquid assets. Remember assets only counts in the ratio of 1:3 when converting to income. 

I know.. that‘s why we have a joint sponsor if needed. I just wanted to know if there is a time frame, like if they will say :“ come back in oneweek with the documents“ or something like that

If you are holding a signed affidavit of support for your upcoming interview that would be an accurate statement.

Then you need to get that affidavit and bring it.  You WILL need it.

How many times do i have to repeat that my question is how much time is given to turn in the joint sponsors I-864? That is all i want to know.. if someone knows it, fine! If not please stop telling me to find a different joint sponsor. I will get the paperwork AFTER THE INTERVIEW IF THEY SAY I NEED IT! No problem with that

I answered your question, 1 year. At the visa interview, there are only 2 outcomes: approved, or denied. If they cannot approve your case, they will issue a 221g, which is a denial. You will have one year to submit the additional evidence for them before the case is returned to the US. After you submit, there is no time frame for them to get back to you, could be 1 week, could be 8 months.

Nobody can answer what the CO might say on an incomplete case.  Usually you get a blue slip (rejection) that specifies next step.

They will give you directions to send the additional paperwork in .. they may or may not hold the passport or tell you to send it with the additional paperwork. There is not likely to be another interview or personal attendance required if they are just waiting for a joint sponsor AOS.  The delay will be dictated by how long it takes for the joint sponsor to get you their paperwork. 

And honestly , if the joint sponsor can fill the form out correctly, there is no reason why you even need to look at the documentation. No e reading through the tax returns .. just pass it all to the Consulate. Preserve the privacy of the joint sponsor .. maybe tell the m that you won’t be looking at the information yourself , just passing it to the officer.

One more thing, @Karry.  I seem to remember that you said there is no current US income.......I see no reason to think that you will avoid having to have a joint sponsor.  I'm sure you WILL need it......

No question on this one

I think the issue is that, because it’s DCF , the AOS won’t be actually assessed until the interview , so the formal request (RFE) won’t come until then .. and the joint sponsor wants to have  official confirmation that it’s needed before providing his paperwork.

Thankfully DCF even with this delay will still be much quicker than Consular processing !!

Exactly.. they have worked hard for everything they have now. The joint sponsor is my husbands sister i know her but still. They are willing to do it but only if this is the only way we get the visa. I am thankful that she‘s going to do it and i won‘t put any pressure on her.Everybody seems to think it is easy to find a joint sponsor but this could become a huge burden for that person willing to joint sponsor.  If i get the paperwork after the interview, than this is how it is...

I am too but i do accept their wish.

So as long as you accept the fact that doing it your way will likely create additional (unknown duration) wait time for the visa, feel free.  And please let us know how it turns out.

Why should it take soooooo much longer?

i haven‘t done anything wrong? 

It‘s not that they requested something that i won‘t have with me! I am just assuming!

Imagine i‘m older not using a computer, not reading all of this?! I did everything correctly so far! I can technically not know if or what else they might want!
