First message says:

 

All required applicant documents have been received and approved: DOCUMENTARILY QUALIFIED

 

Second message says:

 

Case FE Review note: This case does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants. To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 from a joint sponsor may be submitted. For more information visit https://nvc.state.gov/aos. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p.

 

Third message says:

 

All required applicant documents have been received and approved: DOCUMENTARILY QUALIFIED

 

Anyone know what to make of this? I think and hope this means my dad is DQ'ed but I don't like the second message at all

1. Does your current income meet the requirement?

 

2. Does your 2021  taxable income fall short of the requirement?

I believe my current income and 2021 taxable income are both sufficient. Here is what I submitted with actual numbers (I had posted the template here a month ago)

 

Evidence of Income for Petitioner

 

(1) To show my 2021 income, attached are my schedule E's for 2021 showing $189,149 in profit from rental income from properties I manage and own as marital/community property of which 50% is mine.

 

(2) To show my current income, attached are profit and loss statements and deeds of my nine properties that generated $433,902 in 2022 in rent with a profit of $283,983.

 

(3) To show current ownership and assessed values of my assets, attached are property tax statements of my 9 properties, which after subtracting amounts owed on mortgages, have a net equity value of $3,756,043 and my brokerage statements that total $492,802.

 

(4) To show my recent monthly rental income, attached are the most recent bank statements of each of my nine properties which documents $41,855 in monthly rental income in Dec 2022.

I just got this message before I posted it here  I haven't had a chance to discuss with the lawyer.

 

The lawyer who helped me draft the response wanted to do it by the hour since this case had already been submitted but I'm sure I can reach out to her again.

Seems like a lot of people have been getting these messages. I also received a insufficient income notice and was DQed a few seconds later. What was mentioned to me was that my wife's tax transcripts did not meet the requirement (we lived in Thailand from 2019 to 2021 so her income wasn't enough), but her current work pays more than enough to cover the requirement (we submitted a paystub and work contract to prove this). The advice that I was given is to bring her W2 to the interview once I am able to get my hands on it. 

 

Being DQed by NVC means that they will begin looking for an interview date. Just make sure your dad brings enough evidence to the interview that shows you meet the financial requirements. At the end of the day, the consulate has the final say. @pushbrk is the king of immigration information on here. Maybe he can help clarify this.

I answer this a couple times a week.  Don't get a joint sponsor.  File the 2022 tax return ASAP and bring a complete copy including W2 to the interview along with a current pay stub.

Is this necessary since at https://nvc.state.gov/prep it says clearly that "You do not need to bring your Affidavit of Support or financial evidence you submitted to NVC"? I guess my dad could bring it just to be safe

Yes, it's necessary.

For anyone else in this situation, I used "Ask NVC" the following:

 

We just got a message that my dad is documentarily qualified. We then got a second message that "This case does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants". We then got a third message that my dad is documentarily qualified along with an email saying "NVC will work with the U.S. Embassy in KATHMANDU to schedule an interview appointment". Could we confirm that my dad is documentarily qualified and in line for an interview?

 

This was their response:

 

This case is documentarily complete, which means the NVC has all the documents we requested. Your application is waiting for an interview appointment, where a consular officer will adjudicate it. 
 
The U.S. Embassy or Consulate tells the National Visa Center (NVC) when they hold interviews, and we fill appointment dates as cases become qualified. However, NVC cannot predict when an interview will be scheduled as the pandemic continues to severely impact the number of visas U.S. Embassies and Consulates can process. When local conditions and restrictions allow, most have resumed immigrant visa services.
 
NVC will notify all case parties when your interview appointment is scheduled. Your case will stay at NVC until that time.
