Documents accepted but need more proof of domicile

[HarryWatson94 1]

Petitioner might not have a principal residence or be domiciled in the United States. Please submit proof of domicile.

This is what is written in email from case FE review note from NVC. All documents have been accepted, though, what do i do? Am I to wait to be DQ'ed or am I to submit more documents because they have three years of tax transcripts?

Tax transcripts do not show domicile.

[HarryWatson94 1]

Well neither of us live in the US we live in Australia, everything we submitted was done by a agent as well so he must of put something in there, I know bank acc and drivers licence's are in there. Tax transcripts do show you are at least filing tax every year though?

 

[Boiler 45,486]

I am not sure how you can help yourself, or anybody else help you, without knowing what has been done.

I still retain my 1st question, I have been accepted but like the email says the sponsor may have to submit records of domicile. Am I just waiting for DQ because online it says all my docs are good?

Transcripts show you filed taxes.

USCs and LPRs are required to file even if living abroad, so they don't do anything useful for domicile.

 

It sounds like NVC is passing through the documents but letting you know that intent to establish domicile has not been satisfied with the evidence presented. The CO makes the final decision.

thank you for helping

You need to submit more evidence of the petitioner's US domicile or intent to establish US domicile.

If the petitioner can't show US domicile, he/she may have to move to the US before the beneficiary, in order to get the immigrant visa approved.  The petitioner will also need to show evidence of sufficient US-based income to be the sole sponsor, if not you will need a qualified joint sponsor.

 

Good luck!

Thanks for sharing, well since we have a 2 month old my wife will not be moving back without me that's for sure. We have basically given all the information we can in regarding her domicile in the then, she cant enroll for work because of the baby and we don't plan to rent when we get there as I will be working and living on a ranch when I arrive. We will just have to wait to it actually gets fully reviewed and see what they ask. Our immigration agent has certainly put enough information in for what we can provide at the moment, we will just have to play our luck I guess until further action. We just do not have anything else we can submit right now in regards to domicile. 

 

Thank you for your reply

There is somebody going through Canada with a vaguely comparable situation, if it works fine if not they stay where they are.

We submitted a valid driver's license.

Submit a lease. Get family or friends or whatever, in the US to draw up a lease. This way you can show that you will have a place to live.

 

(we submitted a lease, licence, voter registration, bank account, basic quotes from companies for cost of moving from current country to the US). (we are still waiting for DQ)
