    Your interview will be scheduled by the National Visa Center. You must have the interview letter (email) from NVC, before you can schedule the medical. You would have already submitted your PCC to NVC. What is your status at NVC?

    If he has a history of short visits, then visiting during an ongoing immigrant visa process, is of little concern to CBP officers.

    The I-864 is the most complicated form in the process. It is even more complicated when using a joint sponsor. We are here to answer questions, but there is no substitute for the instructions. There are more requirements for joint sponsoring and additional supporting documents for joint sponsors, clearly spelled out in the instructions.

    Yes, you can use any bank account. What you need is a "joint sponsor". Who can BE that, is spelled out clearly in the I-864 instructions you MUST become an A Student of. I would add that the joint sponsor is best to be somebody who would be motivated to actually provide support, it needed. If they are married, their spouse should also provide an I-864a.

    "You can try" anything, but trying this is more likely to bring the validity of the marriage relationship into question, than to have any positive result. There ARE cases where "trying" CAN hurt. In most cases, no harm, but in this case, there's a good chance it COULD do harm, particularly if this is a new marriage.

    Chances of the Pakistani spouse of a US Citizen, obtaining a visitor visa during an immigrant visa process, are worse than slim or none. They are simply NONE. You'll be doing the visiting. Best case, maybe you meet in third country.

    Looks like you'll be facing some extended separation while she is not employed. Where she lives and how she is supported during that separation is something you will have to work out. How tough that will be depends on your circumstances. I think it would be futile to apply for a B visa. She can visit using ESTA, if she hasn't already abused that privilege by spending more time in the USA than out. She may well be able to visit more than once, depending on timing. You have some choices to make regarding her lodging and employment, but those choices are unlikely to be solved by her being in the USA for any extended time.

    Thanks. So if you stated and documented your current income with pay stub and declaration letters, just ignore that message. It is sent anytime "taxable income" is below the minimum on the latest tax return. Keywords here are "may be submitted" and "Consular Officer will decide". See bold above.

    With the I-130, yes. Your question indicates you have not yet studied the I-130 instructions. Doing so, will be critical to your ultimate success.
  11. pushbrk
    What kind of visa are you applying for?
  12. pushbrk
    Two separate forms. Start by studying those I-864 instructions.
  13. pushbrk
    Expedites are granted based on special circumstances or hardships related to the US Citizen, not the foreigner, and certainly not the foreigner's mother. Bringing this up as part of a spouse visa case would call into question the validity of the marriage itself, and jeopardize the spouse visa.
  14. pushbrk
    What's good enough would depend on the reason for needing it.
  15. pushbrk
    Do become an A-Student of the I-864 instructions, but AGI does not apply to a self employed person, in this context. You are not filing a 1040EZ. The number called "total income" is going to be your qualifying "current income". That MIGHT be the same as AGI or might not. Make sure your total income is at least 25% above the 125% minimum, is my recommendation.
  16. pushbrk
    That option will work. Making a new account will work too. Your choice.
  17. pushbrk
    They won't ask for it until the interview, if at all. But, the year you sponsor an immigrant is NOT a year to delay filing your tax return. File it, so she can carry a copy of it, AND the most recent pay stub to the interview.
  18. pushbrk
    Use priority mail. Her passport with entry stamp will still serve as a green card for one year from entry.
  19. pushbrk
    Either is ok. You just add the case number to the account, once you have it. That come just after you file.
  20. pushbrk
    Of course the child has an interview. There may not be questions asked, but an interview is scheduled. Delaying mom's interview is the first thing to do. It's something they still have control over.
  21. pushbrk
    You mentioned two addresses to cover the five years. One of those, the most recent, is shown again as your last address outside the USA. It's a question to be interpreted literally and answered accurately.
  22. pushbrk
    Using "a website" does not assure anybody who is "very experienced" is going to be involved in your case. The discussion turned to this because....I....and others think it's irresponsible to tell strangers we know nothing about except that they found THIS website, "can do it themselves". You "opened' the discussion. It goes where it goes.
  23. pushbrk
    No, but since this is a spouse visa forum, I asked the OP to clarify whether they are the USC petitioner or the foreign spouse.
  24. pushbrk
    Correct, but just as a point of discussion, if the US Citizen petitioner, is dealing with a financial hardship, such as cannot work because they have to be the caregiver for THEIR mother, it might be worth a shot. Slim chances though. If it's the mother of the foreign spouse, no chance at all. That's why I asked.
  25. pushbrk
    In short, no. You have posted in a spouse visa forum. Please clarify whether you are the US Citizen or the foreign spouse.
