US Immigration from Japan

Hi everyone, I have a couple questions that I can t seem to find the right answers for and I m basically intensely nervous at the thought of messing anything up. So if you may know any of the answers I would really appreciate it.

• I m likely about to lose my Job due to the Covid-19 situation, so I m wondering if I should submit the K1 i-129f application now while I still have it and list my current employer, or if I should wait until I have a new job?
  • Is this resolved by having joint sponsor and bringing an i-134 Affidavit of Support to the interview correct? - Can a retired parent joint sponsor?
  • Similar question for current physical address, if I expect to move in a month is it ok to submit now with my current address even though I ll be living somewhere else as it processes? (mailing address will remain the same)

• During work at my current employer I had an official Leave of Absence where I worked for a different company for 1 year but still technically stayed an employee of my current employer Should I count this as 3 separate items of Employment History, or 2 with overlapping employment dates?

• For Address History how exact do you need to be? Previously my partner was living outside their country learning English, and at that time they were doing some couch surfing essentially for 2-3 weeks at a time in between apartments, and has no easy way of finding those addresses at this point - is this going to be an issue to have gaps? I have seen other posts say only include mailing addresses, but this would completely exclude time of about a year spent out of their country, which seems like a potential issue.

• Several fields on the electronic PDF of the application don t seems to be long enough, such as addresses and phone numbers, should I write these in manually then after printing out instead?

• Finally, the instructions say If a question does not apply to you (for example, if you have never been married and the question asks Provide the name of your current spouse ), type or print N/A, unless otherwise directed. But in the electronic PDF many of the fields are locked or don t allow / should these N/A s all be manually written in after printing out?

Thanks in advance for anyone who may be able to answer a question or two. It would really help me put my mind at ease.

Good luck to everyone still working on immigration. Stay safe!

My husband and I got our I-130 approved in Oct. 2019 and our case was sent to NVC in Nov. 2019 My husband came to visit me in the USA a couple months ago and then the whole coronavirus stuff happened, so we decided to do AOS instead. It was my assumption that NVC would send our case to USCIS upon filing the AOS. However, today we got notifications that we are documentarily qualified at NVC, so I called USCIS and talked to a Tier 2 Officer that says that we need to fill out an I-824 to get our I-130 sent back to USCIS. I noticed there is a $465 filing fee to file the I-824!! Has anyone else had this experience??

Hey, everyone. Hope everyone is staying safe during these crazy times. A couple of questions:

1. I'm at the NVC stage now. On the I-864, it asks about my wife's assets (Part 7, questions 6 - 9). I see that's it is optional. If I was to include her assets, would I need bank statements, etc. to verify those assets?

2. I need to upload my wife's picture. No problem. Is mine, the petitioner's, necessary as well? I haven't seen it yet, but would be part of the I-864 uploads? Or should I include it with my wife's in the DS-260 uploads?

Thank you very much.

Hi there,

I have a question that s bugging me. I showed my medical forms to the US embassy in Japan, and we think that we also sent copies with the I-485 form, however the medical exam doc is set to expire in October, 2020 and I worry with the slowdown due to COVID-19 that my medical documents will expire before I will have my interview.

Should I have another medical examination done or am I ok?

Thanks!

It asks for the supervisors name during the time of employment at any given company. My wife called a former employer from 9 years ago and asked for the supervisor's name; they were fairly rude to her and didn't give her a name whatsoever. Is this field necessary to be filled? I thought that perhaps putting the company president's name would suffice. Thoughts?
