  1. Yes, you can both create logins, but there is not going to be any update between receipt and approval of the petition, unless they send an RFE. What is happening is they are adjudicating a petition, not processing any application. Note that USCIS does not issue visas. You approved petition will be sent to the National Visa Center, part of Dept. of State, then on to the US Consulate in London. Watch your emails and US Postal mail. This is a hurry up and wait process. Your petition is just sitting waiting its turn for a human to spend about 20 minutes with it, usually just once.
  2. Great. Now is the time to study the process and its next steps, including the proper terminology used. You did not apply for anything. The I-129f is not an application for anything. It's a petition for foreign fiance. When the petition is approved, your fiance will be invited to apply for a visa.
  3. Just file the affidavit as soon as you have a single pay stub for a full pay period after returning to work. Yes, you can submit the complete federal tax return including all schedules and 1099/W2 forms etc. instead of a Tax Return Transcript. Yes, just leave the asset section blank.
  4. It is clear the sponsor had enough income in 2024. In the tax section of the I-864, what was stated as his income in 22, and 23? It is quite possible they will want to see the 2025 return. What is the line 9 number for that? Consular officers are well trained to consider the totality of circumstances which will include the answers to the questions I ask above. It does sound like the Consular Officer at interview should have considered the total income, but it is also possible the public charge issue was not satisfactory for more reasons than he mentioned. I don't have the whole picture.
  5. Incorrect punctuation by me. NBI is only for people who are 16 or older by the date of the interview. Even an infant goes to the interview. They do biometrics. Everybody needs a passport and a medical exam.
  6. Government fees below. Add local medical exam of around $500. You will find travel to be the biggest expense. K1 US Government Filing and Visa Fees When Paid Agency and Purpose Amount Month 1 *Dept. of Homeland Security, USCIS – Petition Filing Fee $ 675.00 Month 12-14 Dept. of State Visa Application Fee (paid abroad) $ 265.00 Month 18-24 Dept. of Homeland Security, USCIS – Adjust Status Fees $1,440.00 Month 48-60 Homeland Security, USCIS – Removal of Conditions Fee $750.00 Total Immigration Fees To Permanent Resident Status $3,130.00
  7. Even a baby goes to the interview. NBI....IS...the police report. Only for those 16 and older on the interview date. Just go with the replies you get here. You can verify with official online sources. No need to call Manila.
  8. Hard to know the exact problem. When you mention "total income" is that the number actually labeled as "total income" on the 1040 or tax return transcript you also submitted. If so, then what you have done is probably sufficient. If all that was initially submitted (exactly all that) then the Officer should have seen the total income stated on the 1040 or transcript. Please clarify what exact supporting documents were provided with the I-864 and where the income number you are stating here, was found on the tax return.
  9. If you have two different case numbers for Sydney, then use the latest one.
  10. Sounds good. Age 16 needs the NBI report.
  11. Whether you need and/or can benefit from professional assistance depends on aptitude and willingness to study instructions, read carefully, answer accurately and do homework. If you're confident in those areas and have good English language skills, it's very likely, you can be successful doing it on your own, with the help available here. It is important to note that although it does not matter who is doing the typing, it is the Petitioner (US Citizen) who is responsible for the process. What are that person's aptitude, attitude and willingness? Note also, that if you do hire a professional to help, it is not important where their office happens to be. It's far more convenient for all, if not office appointments are needed.
  12. The exact wording of what was checked on the notice matters for any meaningful answer. Also explain what forms and income etc. were provided to overcome the public charge concern.
  13. They can come together or they can follow to join. You make the choice. Each person needs all the same things except only one I-129f that listed the children's information, and only the 16 year old child and the mother need police reports.
  14. These are present tense questions. If he person is deceased, then enter deceased in the city and state of residence. No need to overthink. Read carefully, interpret literally, and answer accurately. It's always helpful to study the actual instructions for forms. As an aside, this form and questions has been essentially the same for 25 years, for as long as the fiancée visa process was born. It is very common not to understand the reasons for parts of the process. It doesn't matter, if you like it or what you don't like about it.
