    When responding to the RFE, add a short cover letter explaining the petitioner IS the sponsor, but changed her name due to marriage. Make sure she checks box 1a indicating the is the petitioner.

    Assuming you provided an email address, your first notice of approval, will be by email. It will be followed by a paper notice by mail. You don't need an "online account" with USCIS to check the status of your case using the case number, but don't expect any updates. It's a black hole.

    Use their full names. You are being asked a simple question about their names. You know the correct answer, so provide it. You will not be required to document it. If a name on a birth certificate was going to be meaningful, it would be you parents' names on YOUR birth certificate. Even if there is a discrepancy there, provide the correct and accurate answer to the questions asked.

    You are right. My bad.

    No need. One current pay stub is enough. The six months thing is an artifact. Modern pay stubs show year to date income anyway. Just bring a more up to date stub to the interview.

    Your wife's affidavit is NOT less important. If her income was below the filing threshold during any of the years, she just checks that box, and hand writes which years, if not all. Your petitioner is always the primary sponsor. The joint sponsor is also needed, but both forms and sets of supporting documents must be correct and sufficient. If your wife is currently employed then you state her current income. Here's the formula. Take the gross income from a full pay period and multiply it by the number of pay periods of that length in a full year. So 1k a week is 52k a year, etc. That's her current income. Tax returns are about the past. No need to state and document liquid assets in this case.

    The email is clear. Your case is on hold, and you should login to CEAC, at least once a year to keep it open. When you are ready proceed, notify them using the same method you used to ask them to hold it.

    No. Your natural child under 18, will simply be "counted" in your household size when you complete your affidavit of support.

    I would follow that exact advice. If you did not include a copy of the NOA2 or the marriage certificate, that could be the cause. Otherwise it is just a mistake the above action will prompt them to correct.
  10. pushbrk
    No worries. That is both common and acceptable.
  11. pushbrk
    Correct. For example my address starts with Red Gate fronting xyz store, purok 2, barangay name, city name, province, country. My street doesn't have a name.
  12. pushbrk
    Incorrect. See above. This has already been clearly answered and corrected. To know this, one must read all the way through the instructions.
  13. pushbrk
    See answers in Red inserted above.

    You can state the amounts and use several bank statements to document. You can also show the intending immigrant (your) liquid assets on the form. Just enter the dollar equivalent and document with several statements.

    I think it is important to add that the initial post says she married AFTER being in the US for 90 days. As such, the petitioner must file an I-130. She cannot just adjust status based on the K1 visa, if the marriage occurred more than 90 days after her arrival.
  16. pushbrk
    To qualify without a joint sponsor, he'll need well over three times the amount of liquid assets, as the income requirement. His current income is zero.
  17. pushbrk
    She is not required to fill out that section. If she has some liquid assets, she can state and document them. The same goes for you. The intending immigrant's liquid assets can also be used. However, if you still need a joint sponsor, I would just skip it.
  18. pushbrk
    NO, it is adjusting status from a K visa. No visa results from such a filing.

    It is not advisable to have the green card changed, so it doesn't match the passport. First step is get a new passport. Should have been done long ago, if she wants to use married name.

    How did you pay? If by check or money order, did you include two separate payments or combine them? They must be two separate payments. If no payment has been accepted, everything was rejected. The proper result would have been to get everything back including the payment. Your report lacks some details like mentioned above. Please clarify. Also, this is not a spouse visa case. Expect your topic to be moved to the correct forum.

    Later in the instructions, they mention that there's no need for beneficiary signature or photos, if they are not in the USA.
  22. pushbrk
    No need for passport photos from a spouse living outside the USA. No need for spouse to sign the I-130a unless in the USA either. That some have sent them, or signed anyway is not a problem. "What they did" and what is required are often not the same. Follow the actual official instructions.
  23. pushbrk
    Correct, but the petitioner will also use the new name on the affidavit of Support, and a copy of the new passport will be submitted to NVC as well. Just think of it as using the new name going forward. No need for any "notification". Note that since that was your intention, you could have filed using the married name. Either way works fine,

    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.

    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.
