RFE notification by email

[kasdfg 0]

Update, I havent received any mail except the biometrics. This is getting strange..

Or maybe an infopass would't be a bad idea since my 90 days for EAD is comming up soon.

That gave me an idea to try that myself so I tried to make one on the same day as my Biometrics, unfortunately the appointment would be in San Antonio and my Biometrics is in Lubbock, each a 4 hour hour drive in different directions. I can't win!

Hi Guys:)

So I guess our RFE is not a screw up,because I received this morning mail from USCIS asking for evidence that I have a pending form I-485.I sent it back right away and now I really hope that my EAD will get approved next week

Good luck to all of you

We got ours today, dated June 2, postmarked June 5.

It was for proof he makes 125% of the poverty guideline.

Here we go again... during November 2004 & March 2005 my husband had a low paying job, he just moved back to where we live now (from Austin to San Angelo, TX), that is the only time during the last 5 years that he didn't make over the poverty guidelines. At the end of March 2005 he started re-working for his father as an electrician, making over the poverty guidelines. His 2005 tax return was under the 125% because of the 3-4 months employed at the the other place.

His letter of employment stated that he makes over the required amount, works fulltime, has since March 2005 and will be taking over the business.

We did include his 2004 tax transcript and a copy of his 2005 return along with his 1040(s) and W2s for 2005.

What can we send them to satisfy their needs?

Thank you posting your details, Canuck. I appreciate that.

Asset evidence, co-sponser(parents, brother, or someone else) like this?

I hope that you solve the problem.

Thank you for response, Jamagda.

Mine may come tomorrow...

I think it might be just the last year of taxes sent?

I sent 3 years just to make sure.

TUNESES I just wanted to say I love your tattoo. Im "imported from Canada "also. What a cool thing to do, Ive been looking for a design for my first and only tattoo and you have just given me some ideas. On the RFE note it could be as simple as a photo, My daughter and I were RFE'd because there was a slight and I mean slight shadow behind us. Good Luck

Hehe Thanks. I got my idea off a beer bottle and stuck it on my neck. Really wanted something permanant to show my pride for my home although I am given this great oppertunity to live in the US.

Time to try and sort out the RFE...

The facts

- on husbands 2005 tax return he did not make 125% of the PG for 2 people due to a low paying job between November 2004 & March 2005

- husbands current income exceeds PG for 2 people. Job started in March/April 2005, income from this job has always been over the 125% but that of course won't be reflected until 2006 tax returns are done.

in section 4 of the I864 it says "The greatest weight in determining elegibility will be placed on current employment and household income..." How do we draw attention to their own guidelines and get through this?

Also, husband didn't fill out part 4C correctly. It wanted the info from his tax return, in the Sponsor's individual income field he put his current salary. <---- could this discrepency be the possible cause of the RFE? They weren't able to match his claimed income with the provided tax infoWould re-doing the I-864 satisfy them?

Options

- Use his father as co-sponsor. He owns his own business and his personal income on his tax return is $120,000+. Would his I-864 have to be for 3 people (him, his wife, me) or 4 (him, his wife, my husband, me).

If we go this route please confirm that he would have to provide his birth certificate (he's a USC) as well as 3 years of tax transcripts since he owns his own business as well as having the I-864 notarized.

I really don't want to go the co-sponsor route unless it's our only option. We also can't use the house because we don't have an up-to-date appraisal on it, the last one was based on 1999 values.

I've been pretty calm throughout this whole process, this finally got to me.

Do not cry...My husband prepared affidavit in three days...I think we only need most recent year W-2 because immigration lawyer told me that.

However, I noticed my husband mistake right now.

In affidavit part2, we should check"a, I filed filing alien relative petition", right?

My husband checked " b, I filed filling an alien worker petition on behalf..."

I did not and can't work yet!!! and I really want to do!!!

Is it possible reason of RFE?

My point is recent years tax doc..

It could be, an alien worker petition would be incorrect, however, this is a ministerial error, and might not be cause for an RFE.

It's the totality of circumstances that determines if the I-864 is sufficient ~ a consideratin of financial stability through employment, past employment and probability of future employment. Your husband's letter from an employer also corroborates his claim to current income. Did he provide pay stubs?

If you use the FIL as co-sponsor, he'd consider his household + sponsored immigrant. I believe 1 year of tax returns is sufficient for AOS submissions after November 23, 2005, although one can provide more to assist in showing the sufficiency of the I-864.

Thank you, mermaid I need to be patient...

And Good Luck for C

However, co-sponser require birthcertificate? We attached the copy on I-130 and I did not see any requirement of it for I-864

We got ours today, as well. It was also for proof that I make 125% above the poverty guidelines--which I do, and they already have all the proof. I, like your husband, also had a 2005 tax return that was under the 125% line. There is nothing more we can show.

We cannot get a cosponsor. We are screwed, and will probably have to leave the country. Right now I feel completely emotionless. We've come as far as possible, and now we can do nothing except go back.

Good luck, Carrie.

Oh..No...Don't make decision too soon...

My husband also did not make enough income 2004 that's why we wait for a year.

My friend asked her friend to be a co-sponser and she got approved.

Another friend of mine asked her home doctor to be a co-sponser...

You may have some possible solutions somewhere...

I hope that you figure out the way... Good luck

may be, this is my reason of RFE... wops..
