I suppose the translator is "under the penalty of perjury" but the translator does not need to include that phrase in their certification. -
As you already stated in your first post, "If you submit a document in any language other than English, the document must be accompanied by a full and complete English translation. The translator must certify that the translation is accurate and he or she is competent to translate from that language to English". There's nothing in there about the translator being certified by anybody or any organization. Yes, anybody fluent in both languages, also competent and willing, can certify a translation, even if they are the author of what is being translated.
-
Not a certified translator. In this context there is no such thing. The translator certifies they are fluent in both languages and that the translation is correct and complete. Yes, the certified translation is required because the communication was specifically requested.
-
Yes, if the specific first communication was requested and was in Spanish, you'll need to include a translation and for the translator to certify it. Use an image of the conversation, not just a transcription or copy and paste. Copying and pasting text is not evidence.

You say your translations are from a "certified translator". They are probably fine, but it is the translator that certifies the translations. USCIS does not certify translators. I would skip the communication records in Spanish and concentrate on evidence of time spent together in person, like passport stamps or boarding passes, and hotel receipts etc.

Having paid for a ticket is not primary evidence of travel. I pay for a one-way ticket to somewhere outside the Philippines every time I enter, but I cancel that ticket within 24 hours and never use it for travel. If you don't have passport stamps, use boarding passes which ARE evidence of travel. If she's been in the USA, download her I-94 and travel history here. https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/home

I-864 tax return upload clarification
pushbrk replied to STDEV's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Select Federal Income Tax return, and I would upload a single PDF with all included. -
If no such thing exists in the DR, this could be a problem, not with USCIS but if it is at interview, she'll need to explain it honestly and directly, and the consequences will be what they will be. There are countries that actually have civil union or domestic partnerships but the DR is not one of them. Neither is recognized there. Actions have consequences. You may will have to wait about 18 months after filing to find out what this little deception's consequences will be, if any.

For a self employed person, income comes from a federal tax return. If you are currently employed, that's very different. You are either employed or you are not. It's not a matter of appearance. If you are employed, then a single normal pay stub that shows gross pay and year to date pay, is sufficient evidence of current "income". Take the gross for a full pay period times the number of those pay periods that would occur in a full year. Every two weeks is times 26, etc. Be very direct on your I-134 that you are employed and your occupation. Don't confuse any of these issues by using the term self employed. Your father's past income or business tax returns are not relevant to your current income.
-
You will not qualify as the sponsor. If your fiance is coming from Thailand or the Philippines, you will not be allowed to use a cosponsor either. You cannot state any income at all, at this point. The current income for a self employed person, comes from their latest tax return. You don't have one. Further, do not confuse business revenue with income. Income is what's left over after subtracting business expenses. Showing current business revenue will not help. Which country? Do you have a cosponsor in mind?

I'm just going to say again, get the actual facts of her visa application, not a convenient interpretation of her explanation.
-
Please be specific. "Mentioned during the application" is not specific enough. Either a marital status was declared on the actual application of it was discussed DURING the interview. Was "Union Libre" entered into the application form, or was it an available status to be selected (doubtful). The only "during" is the interview. If she represented herself as "married" to show ties to her home country, when she was not married, that can be a material misrepresentation resulting in a lifetime ban from entering the USA. Get completely clear on this before moving forward. It's a very serious matter. Convenient interpretation of an explanation is not good enough. Get the actual facts.

In what way was the relationship mentioned? Was it in the interview conversation, or on the visa application? If on the application, what exactly did she state as her marital status on the application?
-
Please clarify how exactly and why this relationship was mentioned in her visa application. Did she claim to be married to this man? If so, did she indicate the relationship was common law? My concern is that this can be considered a misrepresentation in her prior visa application. Details matter in this context.

K-1 Visa - DS-260 Requested?
pushbrk replied to Kayush's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
Correct. The DS260 is not part of the green card process after entering with a K1 visa. This letter does not request a DS 260. It requests a confirmation page. Send the one you have for the DS 160.
