US Immigration from Canada

Hello,

I got the visa package (K-1, after a successful interview) two days ago in the mail, with the yellow envelope and my Canadian passport (with the visa) inside. Without thinking much, I cut it open this morning with scissors about two inches down from the top. In doing so, I also cut open the yellow envelope that clearly says "For no reason whatsoever must this package be opened by anyone other than a CBP agent at POE, etc. etc." After a few minutes of disbelief (all that work, planning and waiting into thin air) and a tear shed, I immediately notified the Consulate in Montreal. I am waiting for their response.

My dear fianc e found online that this is actually quite common. In some other countries, the Embassy/Consulate simply asks you to come back so that they can re-seal the package. I am praying and hoping this is the case for Canada. Have you heard of such a thing happening?

I'll head back to Montreal in a heartbeat to get it re-packaged/re-sealed. We're not going to let an innocent and completely inadvertent mistake on my part ruin everything if we can help it.

Thanks for your help!!!

Hi there,

My husband and I live in Canada. He is a US citizen, I am a Canadian citizen. He is sponsoring my immigration to the US, however he has a Canadian income that will not continue after our move. We are aware that we need a join sponsor, and we do have one. BUT, I am confused as to how we properly fill out the I-1864 part 6.

Part 6.

I am currently:

1. Employed as a/an: Finish Carpenter

2. Name of Employer: Schneider's Millwork

3. Name of Employer 2: N/A

4. Self-employed as a: Custom Woodworker

5. Retired since :N/A

6. Unemployed since: N/A

7. My current individual annual income is: WHAT DO I PUT HERE? Do we write his Canadian income converted to US dollars? Do we write $0, since that is what is reported on his tax return, and his Canadian income doesn't not qualify? That feels wrong to me though, since #1 says he's employed.

Later on in question 20 - My Current Annual Household Income: Same problem. Canadian income? Or income reported on his tax return, which is $0 USD?

In 24 a, b and c, our total income reported on his tax returns will be $0. Won't that look wrong if we've reported having an income in previous questions?

Any help is appreciated. I've found similar threads to this but from so long ago the forms are different.
