US Immigration from Bangladesh

My wife's parent application was recently approved and now to NVC. My wife is not currently working and i work and we do joint tax filling. Does she need to submit any other form besides I-864 (Financial sponsorship) and do we have a link regrading what supporting documents she might need to submit for her parents application. Please assist? thanks

Hello

I am a January 28, 2021 N400 applicant from Seattle, WA. Seattle is notoriously slow compared to the rest of the field offices. Just wondering which month s of applications are getting processed here now. Will really appreciate if any of the Seattle applicants, who recently received interview notification let me know. Thanks

My minor Kids are living in a measurable situation without any parents.

This is an in human act from US Embassy Dhaka & this is against basic human right. Please suggest what can i do at this situation.

Hello VJers,

I hope all of you are well. I am requesting some additional help with my in-laws I-130.

My wife is a USC and has petitioned for both of her parents at the same time. We recently received a notification that her mother's case was approved. Shortly after, we received a RFE notice for her father. There was an issue with the marriage certificate.

Essentially, the issue is that the marriage certificate registration/notary date is decades after the actual marriage date took place. After reading through several threads, it looks like this isn't an uncommon problem when filing for elderly parents.

The marriage took place almost 50 years ago in Bangladesh. During that time, it was very uncommon for marriages to get registered and the country was literally fighting a war. No such document exist from that time period that I am currently aware of. Not only that, the person who solemnized the marriage is long gone.

1. Would Affidavits from relatives be the next best evidence?

2. How does one go about obtaining evidence of the non-existence of the marriage certificate?

3. Is there a template for such a affidavit and what are the most important pieces of info?

4. Should we get affidavits from her father's side and her mother's side (attesting to the marriage)?

5. Has anyone from Bangladesh or surrounding countries faced this specific issue and, if so, how did you successfully handle it?

6. Considering the circumstances, what other secondary evidence can we provide to either prove the marriage and/or prove that a marriage document from that era does not exist?

We are currently trying to see if any possible pictures exist or, at the least, a trail of pictures with them and their kids. Would this be helpful?

I am a bit worried because of a lack of documents behind the marriage. Obtaining affidavits should be doable but they are counted as tertiary evidence - not even secondary. Who would have thought a couple who has been married for half a century would ever need to prove their relationship?

Thank you for everyone who reads this and provides any helpful info. I am sorry for the wordy post. I hope someone, like myself, can search and benefit from this.
