US Immigration from Canada

Hi, we have a joint sponsor and I wanted to confirm a couple things:

1. 2019 income is over the poverty line for our household size, however 2018 and 2017 are below it. Projected 2020 income is to be over the poverty line. Do we need to fill out Part 7 of I-864? The wording is a little vague: "If your income, or the total income for you and your household, from Part 6., Item Numbers 20. or 24.a. - 24.c., exceeds the Federal Poverty Guidelines for your household size, YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED to complete this Part 7. Skip to Part 8."

2. If the answer to number 1 is yes, then how do they consider the 5x limit if the most recent tax return (2019) is already above 125% of the poverty line? I found this a little confusing. To put it into perspective, we have $300K USD in real estate and cash.

Hey y'all,

Has anyone had any success in getting an Infopass appointment during the pandemic?

Personally, my ROC 18-month extension letter is about to expire, and thus so is my drivers' license, which will be very problematic come October. I was trying to book an appointment so I can get the I-551 stamp to renew my license ahead of time, however USCIS doesn't seem to count that as an emergency, which I think is ridiculous I'm trying to avoid it ever becoming a dire emergency (it's already an emergency to get my license renewed very soon as it is), but they seem to be forcing me to wait until it is and I can no longer drive anywhere on my own (including to work!!!).

You know what would be great? If they just sent out refreshed 12-month extension letters to everyone who is pending automatically.

I have a Canadian driver's license, but I've been here almost 6 months so I don't believe I should be driving with that (I don't think I meet residency requirements for that insurance anymore). I have a pending AOS application and we have our NOA receipts and are awaiting a biometrics appointment.

They request SSN denial letter, proof of residency (bills, government letters, etc.), and proof of lawful residence (at least 12 months). It looks like the RMV accepts I-797A, which is based on the I-94, but they want proof that you can be here for at least 12 months lawfully (and my I-94 expires in September). I've contacted them to see if they will accept NOA, I-797 for I-130 petition (approved) and I-485 application (pending), but it will probably be some time before I hear back from them.

Anyone from MA have success getting a driver's license with NOA receipts as proof of lawful residence?

Thanks.

Does anyone think the k1 will actually go through for all of us waiting or are they going to keep it on the backburner until it gets removed as an option? Will they at least continue processing the ones who have been submitted? Even if we do get our k1s, will the USCIS even be around to submit our AOS? If we all get told no more k1s and we get married and file for a spousal visa, will it take years due to there being an almost non-existent USCIS?

I am checking these boards every single day and not a speck of good news ...for months. I'm always checking the news each day and it's always something really bad about USCIS shutting down or the post office..etc. I've never been this depressed and heartbroken in my life. I regret filing a k1 more than anything and I'm sure I'm not alone.

Does anyone see any light at the end of the tunnel? I just want some good news for once, if even really small.

So, went into local SSA office in Jan. They said they could not produce a number cuz immigration would forward my request when my EAD was ready.

EAD was approved in July. They DID NOT forward my request from a SSN and I had to go back to my local SSA office.

I brought my passport, EAD card, marriage certificate. That was 2 weeks ago. They said it is still pending verification from USCIS.

I have since lost the job I had lined up for not being able to produce a SSN. What more verification could they possibly need? I was there. In person. With original docs.

My Senate office has proven to be useless, as has the Manager at the SSA office. Claims there s nothing he can do , but wait.

anyone else having the same issue I m having? I literally have no one left to turn to!!

*rant over*

thank you
