  1. Time for "her", the US Citizen to start doing HER own homework. He can't do anything himself. She must start the process, and best they marry first.
  2. Icing on the cake would be a trip back to your home town alone, to pre-enroll your children for school next year. Check with the school district first. The children need not go with you for this.
  3. A moderator will be along soon, to move this to the correct forum. It's not a visa case.
  4. OK. The OP does mention filing the I-130. Good. This is not a spouse visa case though. It is still adjusting status.
  5. I don't see it mentioned above, but when you marry after the 90 days, you must also file an I-130.
  6. As long as her B1 visa is still valid, there should be no reason she can't leave with you and fly back for her interview, unless the overlap will be too long. It shouldn't be. She's not moving to the USA at that time though. It's you who is relocating. She's coming for a visit and going back for her immigrant visa interview.
  7. The interview is about your marital relationship and whether it is bona fide. (Genuine) Lots of information here about interviews. The simpler and least expensive option to deal with your issue of a three year ban, is to arrange for the interview to occur after that date. You do not have a timeline, so we have no clue where your case is in the pipeline. Has the petition been approved? If so, when? Are you Documentarily Qualified at NVC? If not, have you made the payments and submitted civil documents and affidavit of support?
  8. It's not "tricky". It is what it is. Current income is the king here. State each income by taking the gross pay, for a full pay period times the number of pay periods in a whole year, so times 12, 26, 24, or 52. The form will combine those incomes automatically once entered. You do not have to qualify with any past year's income. Document the current income with a copy of each latest pay stub. You will get a case note that everybody whose last tax return doesn't show qualifying income. Just ignore the notice, and expect success at interview.
  9. If you want to be absolutely sure, file by paper and mail instead. You can also refer to the final section of the form where you can type the address in full, in the appropriate format.
  10. Your plan of documenting your assets is perfectly fine. You do not need to involve and obligate a joint sponsor now, for the visa, or later when sponsoring the adjustment of status. Finding, using, and obligating a joint sponsor, when you are a financially independent adult, is far easier to type, than to do. You're fine. Carry on.
  11. Just don't make the mistake of calling your short visits "periods of residency". They need not be mentioned at all.
  12. Terminology is King here. The US Citizen "files a petition" to start the process. When that petition is approved, the foreign spouse is invited to apply for a visa. Start with the US Citizen becoming an A-Student of the I-130 instructions, a separate downloadable PDF file. You can file online or not, but study of the form PDF....AND.....the instruction PDF, will be critical to your ultimate success. Using the correct terminology is critical to everybody's success, and critical for "helpers" too.
  13. You can use the public inquiry form and ask them to re-open it. Tell them why.
