    If your form is no longer editable, then you can no longer edit it. It can be dealt with at the interview, if necessary.

    Your brother would be the only joint sponsor. He qualifies on his own, and does not need to combine income from you. You are at the same address, but that does not dictate that he act as a household member. An I-864 from each of you. Brother is single, nobody but himself and the immigrant(s) he's sponsoring are counted in his household size. Only you, your dependents and any immigrants your are sponsoring are counted in your household size.

    Yes, it certainly is ok to use a tourist visa to seek medical care. Not sure I agree that visiting to give birth is "medical tourism". Presumably, there would be additional valid reasons for visiting.

    You have far more than is necessary. Certainly no need for anything more. Expect maybe 10% of that to even be looked at. The most important is the primary evidence of time spent together in person. Primary evidence is passport stamps and boarding passes. Photos and similar are secondary evidence. My advice is to pare it down by at least half.

    Ignore the case note and be sure your spouse takes a current pay stub with them to the interview.

    Study here. I used the word study for a reason. https://sg.usembassy.gov/consular-report-of-birth-abroad-crba/

    Yes. There is no requirement to have filed tax returns to file the I-130. However, in order to qualify as your spouse's sponsor, you have to have either filed the last three tax returns, or show you were not required to. The acceptable reason for this is that your income was below the filing threshold. If that's true, then you won't qualify as the financial sponsor. Two choices. Return to the USA and go to work, or have a willing and qualified joint sponsor. The sponsorship issue comes up only after the petition is approved, a year or so after filing.

    If you cannot edit the DS 260 then stop worrying about it. If asked at the interview, just be factual. Clearly, you are not hiding anything. These are not disqualifying issues, but your obfuscating attitude about them could be a problem. Smile, and say, yes, I had some vehicle related violations back then. They can read the dates and do the math.
  23. pushbrk
    The US Citizen can authorize the other parent to appear in their behalf. It is not required they be there.

    You (the OP) keep minimizing and downplaying these offences. The dates don't matter, so get those thoughts out of your head. If asked, explain them directly and concisely without editorial comment. I don't really understand what those offences are. The terminology is not familiar to me. Sounds like you were never arrested or convicted. Please be clear about that. Did you ever go to court and be sentenced? Did you lose your driver license for six months? Personally, I don't consider speeding tickets or failure to have a current inspection to be criminal matters. You are disclosing these because they are on the report. Unless one or more is an actual criminal offence, I would neither worry about them or tick yes to that question. If you do, then see if a question comes up about them. If it does, answer "five traffic related offences, related to insurance and inspection stickers". If you try to minimize and downplay instead of giving direct answers, they are likely to start wondering what else you are misrepresenting.

    Replying to myself after reading more of the thread about having an I-485 denied. Completely different context. Proof of Citizenship is definitely required of the US Citizen as part of an I-485 filing, just as it is for an I-130 (if USC not LPR). But proof of citizenship at NVC stage in connection to an I-864 is not. It is required of non-petitioner sponsors.
  26. pushbrk
    There is no instruction for a petitioner to provide evidence of US Citizenship in the context of an already approved I-130 in a spouse of US Citizen case. You have quoted instructions in a different context. My advice is correct for the context in which the question was asked. You're welcome to show me the full context of the part of the instructions you are misinterpreting.
  27. pushbrk
    It's not. With this as a concern, an immigrant visa should have been pursued. I'll just offer to any reader that this is why I so often criticize those who tell strangers they can "do it yourself". Trying to do it themselves without doing the homework, is why we are having this discussion.

    Proof of US Citizenship is not a listed document for the petitioner in a spouse of US Citizen case. Your example is in a different context, and I suspect there is more to the denial than is explained initially. I didn't read the whole thread, but required documents for adjusting from K1, are not the same as for a spouse visa case. Context matters....greatly.

    Nice answer, really, but what they will look at and care about is less predictable than you might think. It's all circumstantial. But, unless there's more too it, they don't care if you met before a divorce was final, if that's the whole story. A common fraud scenario is when one or both divorce and marry so the first can immigrate, then divorce the petitioner, remarry their ex, and bring them. This is not something that is assumed or even suspected, just because you met while one of you was still married. There would have to be other factors pointing to such a concern.
