US Immigration from Australia

Just a question....

surname on passport is maiden name eg Jane Smith

and applied for Visa with married name eg Jane Wilson

will that be an issue?

* jane is not a real person *

Hi all,

I received a letter dated March 31st from the NVC saying that they had received my I-129F petition from the USCIS, and that they will now forward the petition to the embassy/consulate in sydney. I paid my MRV fee and created an account on cgifederal, but have heard nothing since.

When I created the account and clicked on the pay MRV/schedule interview appointment link, I completed the form and paid the fee, but it gave me no option to schedule an interview. I know everything is crazy right now, but it's been 2 months with no updates and I'm starting to worry. We originally started the process back in October, so we've been very patient haha.

The only update I have seen is by checking manually myself and getting the notification below.

Got this letter from USCIS today asking for more information to help complete my application. I am a K1 Visa holder applying for a status adjustment to permanent residency (form I-485), and I'm applying with a joint financial sponsor (form I-864). I filed my sponsor's application concurrently with my form I-485; she filled it out with all the necessary details and sent me a scan of it all, which I printed and filed along with my other papers. So it doesn't have her original signature, just a scan. Butttt....

The part of the letter that has me confused is this line:
"Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, was submitted; however, it was not from the petitioning sponsor. Even if a joint sponsor will be used, the petitioning sponsor must submit form I-864." ...

Contradicting with its following line:
"In order to process your application further, you must: Submit a completed and signed Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, from the petitioning sponsor."

So is it asking for my sponsor to send Form I-864 in to the USCIS office herself? Or is it asking me to send it in from myself? That's what I interpret the second line to mean. But then the first line seems to want my sponsor to send it in herself, because it was not 'from her'.

I'm thinking that they seem to probably want her original signature either way, I understand that. But should she send it in with her original signature, or should I send it in with her original signature?

Thankyou thankyou thankyou!

Just to clarify I definitely sent in the latest edition of the form, definitely with sufficient evidence, definitely with all of the pages, definitely with her social security number, everything else the letter says, etc.

Hello All

I thought I would make a Thread for Australian's who have their CASE COMPLETE at NVC and are waiting for an Interview to be scheduled at the US Consulate in Sydney!

It might make it easy for us to keep in touch and update each other!

I hope this is OK

We were DQ'd this morning so we will be waiting a while lol

Hello!

my fiance has a flight due for June 16 2020 from Brisbane (Australia) to Raleigh, NC through Qatar airlines. His K1 visa expires in August and was wondering if any other aussie visa holders have gotten approval from the Australian government to fly!?! We got a response from them saying they needed more evidence so we sent everything we could possible including joint credit card accounts, wedding deposits, citizen proof etc. I am just so nervous that he wont hear a response before his flight.
