i-864 PDF (not allowing writing)

[DoodBoy 6]

GUYS,

 

i am filling up i-864 AOS for CR1 visa for my spouse and it's not letting me fill in page 4 out of 10 (employment data) Part 6 Sponsor's Employment & Income (very annoyed 😒)  Is anyone aware of this? or did i make mistake? i am using the 3/10/21 Edition for I-864 form. 

 

So i guess, i'll have to half hand-write my answers (and SCAN) My only concern is that files have to be within 2MB and if this goes down to handwritting half answers then scaning could exceed 2MB limit. 

 

Question: 

Also i am submitting this online right? like save the PDF once all answers are filled & attach it at NVC website.

 

Additional Info on Tax transcripts: PS: took me 10 days to get activation code from IRS for Tax transcript. It's valid for 30 days (I activated my irs acct n got my transcript online)

Question:  i-864 asks for MUST SUBMIT 1 year tax return transcript. Right under it is optional to provide 3 years tax return transctipt (which i don't see any harm in providing so) but question, does this increase help one's beneficiary interview package? i imagine so, if income is hefty not requiring joint-sponsor. This strengthens case, yes? that new incomer will not burden the gov't social welfare. BUT then are the interviewers thinking this deep? is another Q

 

I-865 must be filled within 30 days of moving & submitted to USCIS, if not one could be fined. A bit harsh? what is the intention hmm.. perhaps to keep track of person entering US.. post 911, my guess.

If you are having difficulty entering data into the form, download a fresh one and use only Adobe or Adobe Reader to complete it.  The PDF does not function properly with many of the other PDF filling applications.  It's also ok to hand write if needed.

 

Keeping a scan under 2MB is accomplished by adjusting resolution setting when scanning.

Thanks,yes scanning will be required in any case. Given they want hand signature. print/intitials will not be accepted. 

 

Question about item 1D.  on page 1 of i864 form,    Do i check off " I am the only joint sponsor''  since i am not using anyone co-sponsor.  Just my income alone is sufficent

 

I didn't check off yet because i felt im SOLE sponsor.  When i saw word joint, i felt it didn't apply me but ONLY joint sponsor.. makes me scratch my head.  If i am only sponsor word joint sounds contradictry don't it?

If you are the only sponsor and sponsoring for just 1 person, you can use I-864EZ.

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
