US Immigration from Philippines

Hi! Petitioner here.

Context: Originally, when I filed my taxes with a CPA and on my own for the past few years, the total income for each year fall 50% below the i864p poverty guideline. But I showed my tax documents to a different CPA about a week ago. He realized I've been filing wrong all these years. My total income for every year should actually be around $36000 for every year, which is $10,000 above the poverty line! So, the current CPA recommended that I amend all my federal tax returns for the past few years and send the amended forms to the NVC so that I will not need a joint sponsor.

However, I've been DQ'd recently, my original 3 tax forums have already been submitted to the NVC, and the NVC requested that "may" need to find a joint sponsor. I have not received the interview letter yet.

Questions:
1) Would it be wise to follow the current CPA's advice?
2) Won't the Interviewer be suspect of the amendments? Or will the interviewer accept the amendments?
3) Should I contact NVC regarding my situation? Or is there a likelihood that they'll see my situation as a red flag?
4) Will amending tax forms delay the NVC process by months and months?
5) Even having earned $36000 per year for all three years and its anticipated for 2025, should I still have a joint sponsor?

Hi guys, I got approval of my n400 on July 24th but I didnt receive my new ss card yet. I did choose to have it automatically updated for me. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

I met my wife online and spent 3 months in the Philippines together. When I got back to the states, we got married in an online zoom call. We filed a K1 visa and was approved. We are now waiting on the AoS approval.

We originally selected SM Cubao as the pick-up spot for convenience, and this was the location shown on usvisascheduling.com for the last month. Our status now changed to "ISSUED", and suddenly the pick-up location on usvisascheduling.com changed to "MANILA Visa Application Center".

1. Why did it change?

2. Is there a status on CEAC after "ISSUED" that is "READY FOR PICK UP"?

3. Or does "Ready for Pick-Up" a status that shows on usvisascheduling.com?

4. Are we waiting for any new status update or is the visa ready for pick-up?

5. And if so, is this Visa Application Center the same as the OFC Biometrics location, Parqual Building 8, level 3?

6. Or should we just call the help number to figure this out?

Hi!

For the CR1 interview, were any of you refused and requested a joint sponsor by the mere fact that the sole petitioner did not make enough, even though the petitioner made around $10,000 over the poverty guideline?

For example, the poverty guideline is $26,437, but he/she every year made $36000 per year for the past four years?
