    Correct procedure, but some will not add without a SS number. Call and explain and see what they say. Temporary solution, if needed, is travel insurance.
  2. pushbrk
    If no interview date has been scheduled, the case is at NVC, not the Consulate. Contact NVC.

    It's quite possible you may not be able to purchase full insurance right away, but you can soon after. But, you CAN purchase travel insurance that will cover the needs you are concerned about.

    Looks good, but note you are not applying for a visa and there is no "we" who will ever apply. The US Citizen files a petition for alien relative. When the petition is approved, the foreign spouse is invited to apply for the visa.
  5. pushbrk
    Yes, that is correct, and if the documents are needed for filing, she can be the one to leave him behind and go get them.

    If he can use ESTA now, nothing about the previous process is going to count against him. You can file while he's in the country, unless the documents he needs are for the petition. In that case, you'll have to wait until you have them, or somebody can retrieve them and send them to you. Whether you wait is a choice, not a have to.

    You would be helping more, if you lead her here. It's not difficult to find.

    Not really practical to "ask for a friend" in this forum. Why isn't the US Citizen spouse here discussing this, or even your friend directly. Second hand information is unreliable. You don't know the questions to ask or whether you've gotten a meaningful answer. My advice is to get one or both of them involved directly in the discussion. It will save time and confusion.

    And.....we do have a shared bank account and she is the primary benefactor of my mutual fund, no children together.

    China is a huge country with only one place to get an immigrant visa. Of course you depart from wherever, even if your international departure is outside China.
  11. pushbrk
    No need for translation because you already entered the name and address on the form in English anyway.
  12. pushbrk
    Just to be clear, the petitioner includes their US Citizen children in their household size but the Joint sponsor does not. This question is about the joint sponsor.

    12 to 15 months is a proper expectation, but don't put much stock in the predictions.
  14. pushbrk
    What is acceptable and how to obtain is found here. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html
  15. pushbrk
    Yes, you seem to have it right.
  16. pushbrk
    Yes the date is only needed if you add extra sheets. That's what the literal interpretation is, of the sentence you referred to from the instructions. Read carefully. Interpret literally, then respond accurately based on the first two. You're making this harder than it needs to be.
  17. pushbrk
    Yes. Note the for form will insert your name on top of page 7 automatically, if you are using Adobe.
  18. pushbrk
    See page (number) for complete address, then type any addresses in the open text fields at the end of the form. That's ther reason they are there.
  19. pushbrk
    Probably, at least that. 6 to 18 months is what I've seen. More complicated when there is an additional country involved, with no PCC available.
  20. pushbrk
    If you did your homework, you already know any Pakistani male is going into extended AP after the interview. No way was the visa going to be approved at interview. This has been true for more than twenty years. If a PCC is not available, it won't be required. You don't mention the country. Even so, the Dept. of State will now begin the extensive, expensive, on the ground investigations every Pakistani Male and many Pakistani females go through after an otherwise successful interview. Relax. He's in AP. It's expected, not a secret, and should not be a surprise to you.
  21. pushbrk
    Yes, that's the answer. I'm going to add though that these forms are intended to be completed using an Adobe application, (reader or acrobat) You need to be extremely careful otherwise as there are built in functions that won't work otherwise. You can have a real fit later doing that with the affidavit of support. If you are going to pay the kind of close attention to detail that's going to take, then take the time to become an A-Student of the instructions for the forms.
  22. pushbrk
    The first line is all you need. The form won't let you type n/a in most fields anyway. That instruction is an artifact from decades ago. Note also that some questions are applicable but the answer is none. In this case the answer is "Above" and I assure you that is sufficient. Think but don't overthink. Common sense is important in this context.
  23. pushbrk
    It's important to read carefully, and interpret literally. "If NOT shown above" means exactly that. If it IS shown above, just enter "ABOVE" on the first line.
  24. pushbrk
    No. Three times the income requirement, and well over it. Think in terms of 100k plus. They know you will burn through a lot of savings for the move. Study those instructions. It's critical you understand. Drop the "surely...." attitude. It is what it is.
  25. pushbrk
    Time to become an A-Student of the I-864 instructions. You need a qualified sponsor for your immigrant spouse. Substantial liquid assets would be well over 3 times the income requirement. You must also show you have owned those assets for a year or so, instead of it being a temporary loan from an otherwise unqualified or unwilling sponsor. Not really reading your mind, unless I am. 😉
