    You do not need translated proof you lived together or any government document. State the addresses with start and end dates on any forms as requested. The evidence to support that would be in passports or boarding passes showing whichever one of you was in the other's country. You could also use rental or lease agreements. I know this is a spouse case, but for example, when required to show evidence (understand the difference between "evidence" and "proof") of having met in person prior to filing a fiancée petition, evidence of being in the same country is all the primary evidence required. Photos together are good, but considered secondary evidence.

    Yes, your financial situation may negatively impact your ability to sponsor your spouse for an immigrant visa. US Immigration laws don't provide for understanding difficulty, if it means the taxpayers are going to be on the hook to support the immigrant. Like you said, most people can't afford to rent in the USA and abroad, so they don't even try. The US Citizen goes back to the USA and pays one rent. Your choices are yours to make but you don't get to make choices for the US taxpayer. You've already been told that your wife's hardships won't get an expedite approved, and you've been told the visa decision will most likely made sooner than the expedite could be approved anyway. If you want to do a fundraiser, it should not become information that relates to your wife's immigration process.

    Not needed.

    Correct. The evidence of meeting is required to be filed with the I-130. You can file after April Everybody here understands your situation and desire, but filing without that evidence will just be a waste of time and money. That I-130 will be denied. File after you've been together.

    🙂 I've been a member here 20 years. Seen most things many times.

    I wasn't correcting you. Just explaining further why you were right. Additionally, some divorce decrees mention the spouse will go back to her maiden name. In that case, no need for the female petitioner's prior marriage certificate either.
  20. pushbrk
    If you are DQ, just ignore any mention of a police certificate that is clearly not required due to the stay being less than six months.

    This petitioner is male, but a female petitioner would need to provide previous marriage certificates in any case where that's the only documentation of name change. A male petitioner who has never changed their name based on marriage, does not need to submit prior marriage certificates, just the divorce decree(s) or death certificate(s) This is one of many cases where instructions apply only when the context indicates it. Unfortunately, there are many misunderstandings due to the context not being made clear in the instructions. Example: Petitioner with the birth name Mary Jones, married Mr. Smith, divorced him and married Mr. Harris. Assuming the applicable name change, there is no way to document that Mrs. Harris the Mary Jones on the birth certificate is the Mary Smith on the divorced decree without documenting the name change from Jones to Smith. The best way to do that in these cases is to track the name changes by submitting the prior marriage certificate to Mr. Smith.

    Because you didn't apply for anything at all. You filed a petition for alien relative on behalf of your spouse. The I-130 puts you on the CR1 or IR1 visa path. A second/separate I-129F opens a path to a K3 visa for maybe a day, before it is administratively closed in favor of the already filed I-130. Being new should quickly be overcome by you studying the guide (top of any page here) and the actual form instructions.

    A careful reading indicates this applies to benefit requests to USCIS. We'll have to see, but in my understanding the I-130 has already been approved, and is not a "benefit request" anyway. This case is now in the hands of the Dept. of State, specifically the Immigrant Visa Unit in London. I would be quite surprised if it has any impact in this case. If it's CR1 instead of IR1, this memo could impact removing conditions.

    What's giving you the impression your birth country would matter in this context? Is it just a fear, or is there some basis for it. I'm not aware of a reason for concern.

    If you filed an I-130 you are on the path to CR1 or IR1 visa. For all practical purposes the K3 visa died 15 years ago.

    Referring to what I bolded above, there are no such questions on the I-130, but yes somebody will be curious and you may be called on to explain at some point.

    Correct

    Your address change has no impact on your actual timeline. Ignore the change in the timeline. You will still need to deal with the change of country once the petition is approved. NVC will assign it according to the original I-130 and it will take a few weeks for you to provide the necessary information to get it changed to NZ.
