If I were in your shoes, I would "decide" to return to Israel, with a return date at least a day or two after the visa interview. I take it that it's decision, not the actual return that must be made in the next few days. You are not marginal as to your assets, but unless they are already stated and documented on your existing I-864, you would need a new one to have them considered. You don't say how long you must stay in Israel to keep your job before you leave to be with your wife in the USA, so that may be a consideration too. If she can state the present employment as of today is truthfully still ongoing on interview day, that simplifies things a lot. What you do the next day or after, has no bearing on her visa.

My fathers middle name on my Birth certificate is misspelled
pushbrk replied to claire mae's topic in Philippines
What's an "AOM"? What options are you aware of to "fix it"? -
An actual NOID will have instructions. Maybe the online notice doesn't but the one you will get in the mail does. Do not rush this. Months ago, was the time to get a complete and detailed report from your spouse about what happened from the time they arrived at the Embassy in Lagos until they left. I mean word for word. Once you have that, you will understand the reasons and whether you have a case to overcome the revocation or you should accept and start a new case. (or stop and give up) You have a few months to respond. The last thing you want to do is waste your response by responding ineffectively.

Case status updates
pushbrk replied to Golfnut's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Don't expect any updates at all until the year or so has passed. All that's happening is your case is in the queue, waiting for a human to spend about twenty or thirty minutes adjudicating it. You'll either be notified of approval, RFE, or denial at that time. Use this time to do your homework on what happens next at the National Visa Center. -
Delays in Ontario for marriage certificates are a known factor. You wait. The I-130 is not a visa. It is a petition for alien relative. When the petition is approved, your spouse will be invited to apply for a CR1 or IR1 visa, depending on how long you have been married at that time. Start by clicking on the word "guides" at the top of any page here, and use your waiting time to learn the process.

Bona fide evidence checklist

Concur. No need for chat history or examples in your case. -
NVC message
pushbrk replied to Daniel Thornton's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Depends on where you are in the NVC process, to know why this happens. I suspect you indicated the child was immigrating with their parent. Fix that, as US Citizens do not immigrate to the USA. -
Sponsor wife on SSD
pushbrk replied to Sunny3's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
This is SSDI, not SSI. He's still working, so should continue to work until the SS Disability is approved. Chances are the immigrants will already be in the USA by then, making SSDI income for sponsorship a moot point. Yes, if SSDI is enough, it can be used by a petitioner to sponsor an immigrant if it's enough. Since it is not a part of the present tense of this case, that really doesn't matter. -
Start by clicking on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here. Whether you file online or on paper, you do not need anything physically sent from Ghana. He can email documents, and you print and mail, or upload if filing by mail. Be aware that it will take 12 to 18 months for the petition to be approved and because of the backlog for interviews in Accra, you are at least three years away from a visa being issued.

You transferring money to your foreign spouse is not evidence of a bona fide relationship. It is not comingling of finances. It's you supporting her. It is her end that you are evidencing as genuine, not yours. Leave out anything about you sending money to her. Comingling of finances is not expected when couples don't live in the same country.

Questions about I-130
pushbrk replied to Asker19's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Correct. The Will and house are not evidence of a bona fide relationship, and will not help later with the affidavit of support unless it is sold first. It's just where the couple lives together and nothing more. That the US Citizen owns a home in the foreign spouse's country will amplify the domicile issue at the next stage, but not relevant to the I-130 approval. -
Questions about I-130
pushbrk replied to Asker19's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
So that is a house in Nigeria. Thanks for clarifying.
