Hello everyone 👋

Please we are at the stage NVC 

I'm the beneficiary my wife is us citizen she is retired her income is not meeting the requirements/we found a joint sponsor 

 

1.First thing 

My concern is does she need to file only the form I-864 and collect the income evidence plus the SSA (Social security treatments) since she is retired ,showing her monthly incomes plus the w2 and tax transcripts? Or does she need to file out the form i-864w ?

(Cause a lady in one group said to me since your wife retired she need to file I864W)

 

2. Second thing 

Is it because she is retired and her income is not enough that makes the case difficult and the immigration department considers this a reason not to grant the visa or does the joint Sponsor cover all of the above mentioned? For reference, my wife was working with a good salary in America and when we met she decided to leave and live abroad with me in my country for 5 years until now. She traveled back to America to prepare to live there again and among the things she did is trying to work on domicile and find a job,she received many offers. Is this considered good for the case? Please provide some advice. Thank you.

1.  Your wife must complete, sign, and submit an I-864 as the petitioner.  The "w" version is not applicable to  your case.

2. That she has re-established domicile is good.  If she goes back to work, she can submit an updated I-864 before the interview.

Thanks for the fast reply 

She actually went to work on the domicile and get back to me while waiting for the visa to be done.

 

Is it bad that she is not meeting the requirements income and retired?

Or having a joint Sponsor covering this matter 

(I have seen cases got visa in hand while both were living abroad).

The Consular Officer will consider the totality of circumstances, which will include how the two of you will support yourselves in the USA.  If she can't afford to support you herself, then your employability and intentions are part of the circumstances to be considered.

Do you suggest for her to find a job and work remotely from Morocco? Cause she doesn't want to stay alone while waiting for the visa it can take tow 6-8 months I assume from the last stage

Obviously I do not know all the details but the basics look good, the financials well the US is expensive, but she knows that and a lot of this seems to be more a financial issue.

We don't know all the things the Consular Officer will know.  I mentioned your employability and anything you have to offer to the picture.  You haven't mentioned any of that, so nobody can predict what "like mine" actually means.  If she can work remotely for an employer where the "employee income" not self employment will continue from the same source, that would be good.

 

Bear in mind that in these situations, the petitioner must do what they must do, regardless of whether they want to or not.  Otherwise, no visa for you. 😉

Yes indeed I must give you a brief summary of our case As you know we have known each other since 2017 and have visited seven times before she decided to sell her house in the states and move to live with me since 2020 until now and we did not get married until four years had passed and when we got married we did not apply for visa procedure until two years after the marriage also we bought a house and a car everything is documented, so among the evidence that we gave to the immigration office are all these things that I mentioned and this is what I meant by the story like "Mine".

 

So now what advice would you give us since I told you the basics of our story should we find a remotely job since she is still in the states or just contacting companies to show intention of establishing domicile?

Thanks 🙏🎖️

She is in the US so domicile is a non issue

Earlier you said she did not want to wait in the USA.  Please address my direct questions, as they are still critical to your ultimate success.  Sounds like she can satisfy the domicile issues, but how is she going to qualify as your financial sponsor?  Are you employable and part of the plan for supporting yourselves in the USA.  If so, please elaborate.  No qualified financial sponsor, means not visa for you.

Coworker must be an LPR of US citizen domiciled in the US, making enough money to be an eligible joint sponsor.

Correct, but also considered is their motivation to actually sponsor.  Has this former coworker read the contract he will sign?  By sponsor I mean actually support.  You still need to present a viable plan for actual support.  I've asked twice about the foreign spouse's ability and intention to contribute to the couple's support.  You have not mentioned any of that.  It is highly relevant.

 

You do not "cover up" anything.  You must convince the Consular Officer you will not become a public charge, meaning not have to be supported by the US taxpayer instead of your spouse and yourself.

Very valid point. AFAIK US government rarely goes after the sponsor to reimburse for any benefits provided to immigrant.

 

Having said that, I would be very hesitant to sign anything like this.
