US Immigration from Philippines

It seems they arranged 300 immigration fraud sham marriages for Filipinos. Used the same props and backgrounds in allot of the wedding photos.

Hi Everyone,

I submitted I-485 for my mother in August 2023. I only attached a copy of my Federal Tax Transcript. Now, I received a mail requesting for evidence.

Here is the request:

1) The petitioning sponsor submitted a joint Federal income tax return for the most recent year. Since there is no supporting tax documentation (W-2s, 1099s, Form 2555 and tax schedules) provided for the petitioning sponsor, we are not able to determine if the petitioning sponsor's income on the Federal income tax return meets or exceeds 125 percent (100 percent if military) of the poverty guideline. The petitioning sponsor must submit supporting tax documents filed with the joint Federal income tax return.

2) Based on the documents submitted with Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, for the petitioning sponsor the income did not meet 125 percent (100 percent if military) of the poverty guideline for the petitioner/sponsor's household size. Submit evidence from a qualifying joint sponsor. The joint sponsor will need to submit: A completed and signed Form I-864 for the joint sponsor. All pages must be present and of the same revision date A copy of the joint sponsor's Federal income tax return for the most recent year A copy of the joint sponsor's supporting tax documents (W-2s, 1099s, Form 2555, and tax schedules) that you filed with your Federal income tax return Evidence of the joint sponsor's status as a United States citizen, United States National, or Lawful Permanent Resident.

I am the only one working in my household and my current salary is around 100k so after checking the income guideline. I am qualified to sponsor my mother.

My question is if I submit the requirements for 1 - supporting documentation for income ( I will be submitting form 1040, W2s, and 1099 - I forgot to include documents when we filed the application), do I still need to submit I-864 from a sponsor as stated in 2?

By the way, what do I put on current annual income? is it based on the last income tax return submitted?

I appreciate all your input.

Thank you.

Hello guys, I'm from Philippines i need to repeat my medical i just requested a new health case number. Is there anyone here who experience like this. I feel so sad. how long does it take?

Appreciate any help. Thank you!

Would anyone know what the required vaccines are for both adult female and minor child? Child has, more or less, complete vaccines since birth. For the adult female, vaccines weren't normal to do during their generation so might not have a record of it anymore.

Hello, my fellow filers. Been awhile since I had to turn to all your experience for advice, but here goes. So like SOOOO many others, My fiance was flagged in her chest x-ray for sputum testing even though we both know shes not sick, never been sick etc etc...but I dont want to start on THAT whole rant. Anyway, she was flagged in November and completed the sputum tests and now we are just waiting through the 8 week culture test which we are confident will confirm she does not have TB. Our 8 weeks will be up in January and they have scheduled her new medical for January 22nd and because we are so confident, we've gone ahead and scheduled her interview for the 30th and I'm planning to book her flight to the US for Mar 1st to give her time to visit family and friends and say her goodbyes first. My concern is that Gly and just about everyone she knows has recently come down with what the doctor said is mycoplasma pneumoniae which is a respiratory infection. They are all coughing like crazy. The doctor prescribed her medication and she seems to be getting better fairly quickly but I'm freaking out because I know it can take several weeks for pneumonia to completely leave your lungs and I am concerned this will cause them to see something new in her chest x-ray if she has to do it all over again on the 22nd and they might flag us again and make us go through sputum testing and 8 week cultures AGAIN. Has anyone else been in a similiar situation or heard of anyone who has been forced to go through the 8 week culture tests twice in a row after being sick?
