US Immigration from Turkey

Hi everyone,

My husband and I are preparing the AOS application and we have a question about providing financial evidence with the affidavit of support.

We have a letter from his employer stating his hourly and annual salary and all the details. His salary is much more than the 125% of the poverty line so we re good there. However, he has been working in this job only for a few months and his tax return from 2023 shows much less money.

Our question is, should we still include his tax return from 2023 and before even though it s below the required financial level? Would the letter from his employer showing his current income be enough? Do we need to include any other evidence of income?

All help is appreciated!

Hi,
I'm a Bangladeshi Citizen and I do not have a Malaysian resident permit. I want to transfer my case to the US embassy in Kuala Lumpur. I will go there on a short term visit visa for the interview. How can I do that?

Is there anyone who did the same?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

I wanna ask something for my friend.

My friend has applied to a language school in NYC and she has an appointment this week. I'm a green card holder, married to a USC and living in the USA almost a year now. I'm living in California. So, here's the thing; I paid my friend's passport delivery service online and on the receipt, it's my name and American home address. We are kinda freaking out because her agency that she's doing the visa process through said that having a friend in the US is an absolute denial. Is that true? I mean, I'm aware that no one can answer that 100% but what are the changes? Again, it's just the passport delivery service, nothing else. But her agency is insist to put my name on her DS-160 as "US Contacts". Neither I or my husband is sponsoring her. She's working in Turkey as an HR specialist and want to learn English to move up in her career.

Sorry for the mixed-up story; I wanted to learn if it makes a difference for me to pay the passport delivery fee and having my name on the receipt? And do they check that document at all?

Thank you. All answers are appreciated.

Hi everyone,

I just received an RFE from USCIS (Texas Processing Center). Our PD is May 23, 2023 and we are filing an I-130 (consular processing). Essentially, my partner goes by a nickname and all of his friends and family call him by this name. All of his text messages are shown to also be under nickname which was used as evidence. His legal nickname is completely different from his nickname however. We didn't think much of this issue as his last name is the same.

Unfortunately, the RFE we received (as attached) stated that they cannot confirm that the names used all belong to the same person and they want us to provide proof that these two names used are for the same person. They want this through legal documents. However, we are perplexed on how we can prove this as his nickname doesn't show up on any legal documents (rightly so). They wrote that if we don't have any primary or secondary evidence to show that we can ask people to write affidavits, but that these affidavits will only have minimal weight if we can't accompany it by any independent or objective evidence to corroborate the name differences.

We are at a loss on how to proceed at this point. Has anyone had a similar experience in regards to this matter and if so, what did you do? Any advice or input would be much appreciated! I am suspecting that we may need to speak with a lawyer, but hoping that there is a straightforward answer.

Many thanks in advance.

I understand this is a strange situation. So me and my ex split up around 4 years ago. Things were very mutual and we are still very close friends. When we split, he moved back to his home country ( Turkey ). Unfortunately that was right before he was supposed to get his 10 year green card. He hasn't come back to visit since. He is still close with both me and my family and now that my older brother is having a kid, he really wants to come visit often. How would he go about visiting? Keep in mind, we never actually got divorced cause we've been quite lazy about it. I feel like the embassy will just think this situation is too weird and deny him. Any advice/ideas?
