    Provide more details of the circumstances, like ages of the kids now and when the I-130 was filed. This is probably not a do it yourself thing at this point, but you could ask for an explanation. Get your senior US Senator's local office involved immediately.

    Correct. Just as with the K1 process, the CR1 process begins with the US Citizen filing a petition. There is no k1 visa to cancel unless it has already been issued. Don't go to the interview. You can also notify the Consulate you do not intend to proceed with the visa process.

    yes

    This is a common occurrence, and not really an issue. Explaining the discrepancy is a good idea. It sure won't hurt.

    Make your "totality of circumstances" look the best you can. If your income is not enough to qualify, and you have meaningful liquid assets, declare them and document them. Same goes for the Joint sponsor. If somebody has plenty of liquid assets, there's no reason to get appraisals and other documentation for real estate or other non-liquid assets. 401k assets are meaningful but their value will be cut nearly in half, in the Consular Officer's evaluation, because of penalties and taxes involved in liquidating early.

    NVC only warns when the latest tax return doesn't show enough income. In this case, it does. This petitioner has well qualified income from 2022, that can be documented with a current pay stub. No need to subject a relative or friend to disclosing and documenting their private and financial information and signing a daunting contract.
  7. pushbrk
    Any, but a utility bill would be ideal.
  8. pushbrk
    No, it is not. Include the spouse's income on both, so both totals match the tax return. Get out of your head any thoughts about whose income you are "using". Even if either one qualifies on their own, the Consular Officer almost always wants the I-864a because it's a "contract" even more than being evidence the sponsor qualifies. It's a joint obligation, so no reason or way to exclude one of them from the obligation but simply not stating their income on one of the forms.
  9. pushbrk
    Correct.
  10. pushbrk
    It is always the best practice to provide an I-864a from the joint sponsors joint tax filing spouse. OP, should disregard the above. Bad advice.
  11. pushbrk
    The I-864 instructions are clear about providing a complete tax return including W2 and 1099 forms. That's all the supporting evidence you need. Just follow the instructions.
  12. pushbrk
    That's my advice too. Make the request to Frankfort.
  13. pushbrk
    I clarified the rules applicable to the stated circumstances. The rules vary with the circumstances.
  14. pushbrk
    Your statement is clear but not correct under the circumstances. She's already here. If circumstances change, she can adjust status. The applicable differentiating fact has to do with her intent when she entered. No, you cannot enter as a visitor with the intent to immigrate. She is HERE already.
  15. pushbrk
    Yes, and handcuffing the members here trying to help, by concealing your current country of residence and her country of citizenship, both of which are HIGLY RELEVENT.
  16. pushbrk
    You could write to USCIS or just deal with it when the case gets to NVC. If you are a legal resident of a country other than your country of Citizenship, you can interview there by doing a consulate change, also at NVC.
  17. pushbrk
    Not necessarily. You can explain just as you did above by hand writing on the form, "From date through date, there were over 500 crossings to El Paso only.

    Please study it all and interpret what you read LITERALLY. Then ask questions. Understand the guide too, so you know what's important now and what comes later.
  19. pushbrk
    Yes, I understood, and gave you my answer. I'll add, yes really, and yes, I'm sure.
  20. pushbrk
    Correct. In all my years here, I've never heard of the question, "Have you ever been questioned by police?"
  21. pushbrk
    You and your wife live together abroad. No need for any affidavits from friends. When you study instructions, do it carefully. You are reading from a list that is preceded by the words, "In addition to the required....." and "one or more of". Nothing on that list is required, and "one or more" does not mean "all". Just show your address history is the same, and maybe your resident status evidence showing you are together and skip anything you don't have or can't easily provide. The financial sponsorship issue isn't going to come up for a year or so. Deal with it then, based on the facts at that time. Current income is the KING in that regard.
  22. pushbrk
    Correct....AND...the I-130 asks questions that are only applicable if the beneficiary is currently in the USA. No worries.
  23. pushbrk
    Your visit was probably limited because your six month visit was followed to closely by your next visit.
  24. pushbrk
    You actually answered correctly. Either maiden or married name is ok. You married Miss White and divorced Mrs. Brown. No issue, and nothing to fix. They will know Miss Smith is the Mrs. Brown you divorced.
  25. pushbrk
    Sounds like this is more than Mary Smith, becoming Mary Jones after marrying Jim Jones. If so, provide evidence of the formal name change. If she only took a "married name" or change from maiden to married name, the marriage certificate is all that's needed. Ashley Brown, does not become Susan White, by simply marrying Mr. White.
