New I-1944 Form...Anyone Sent It In W/O Rejection or RFE?

[George Judea 29]

Hello everyone! My husband and I sent in our AOS application and it was returned back to us because it was missing two forms; I-944 and I-864EZ...I do not understand the process of the I-944...I want to understand very clearly that everything they are asking about is it for the Petitioner (US Citizen) or Beneficiary (Spouse Seeking the GC)...i.e, the credit history, health insurance, use of public benefits etc...I know the form is very new so we are all trying to figure it out but I know some are further along than others. So pls, those who FOR SURE know this form and how to do it pls let me know so we can move forward with our process

Everything should be for the beneficiary who is now the actual petitioner. If the petitioner is a new immigrant they may not have credit history or anything but you have to try to get a letter from the credit bureau that says he doesn’t have a credit file. The only thing that’s really about the US citizen is the I-864. The US citizen fills that out and attaches the supporting documents(tax return transcripts, w-2’s, pay check stubs, letter of employment etc to establish that they meet the 125% poverty level.

You are lucky they returned it, they can get the payments and later denied your case because of missing documents. Consider yourself lucky.

 

After Feb 24, 2020, you need to send I-944 along with I-485. You may use Form I-864EZ if ALL the following conditions apply:

1. You are the person who filed or is filing Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, for a relative being sponsored;

2. The relative you are sponsoring is the only person listed on Form I-130; and

3. The income you are using to qualify is based entirely on your salary or pension and is shown on one or more Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form W-2s provided by your employers or former employers.

Thank you kindly, that's what I assumed but with these things you don't want to ASSUME...you have to know....thank you once again.
