    Provided it is a Tax RETURN Transcript, you do not ALSO submit a complete tax return including all schedules. Pay attention to the little word "or" in instructions. It's often missed.

    If your husband retires and starts receiving that retirement income BEFORE you submit the affidavit of support (a year or so from now) then yes, you can. You submit these required forms. I-130 and I-130a in the beginning. Everything else is later. A year or more later.

    Interesting to know. The problems I see with the visa for the lab, is that all the rest of her family are US Citizens, so her ties are to them. She's not leaving the twin sons in Europe. DCF is the way to go if they can swing it, then maybe reschedule the lab.

    Definitely worth a try.

    Any applicable instruction would have been on the previous page. Just leave it blank if you can.

    To be clear for readers... 1. Expiration dates that appear on police reports are not important to Consular Officers. They only care about the issue date being no older than their current standard. That has changed over time from six, to 12, and now to 24 months. 2. For countries of FORMER residence, not returned to since ceasing residence there, the police reports can be obtained at any time. As long as it is the correct document, they are not considered "expired" no matter how old they are. 3. Police reports are NEVER needed for the USA.

    Yes, you'll need a lawyer for the criminal case, and once resolved, should consult a competent US Immigration attorney familiar with family based immigration. When you do, don't explain as vaguely as you did above. "Extreme circumstances" have nothing at all to do with guilt. She knew she got the advance and knew she didn't pay it back, reasons or not.

    Yes, this email is your notice of interview.

    No. I was not wrong. I'm helping and clarifying. I have no personal bone to pick with you. See large bold above. Correct.

    "Certificates"? Any certificate needed for any country other than the current country of residence, can be gotten any time. If it is "certificate" (singular) get it around the time you expect your I-130 to be approved, OR as soon as it is approved, if it can be obtained quickly.

    We often get questions about "marriage license". By definition, that document is secured prior to marriage, when required. For US Immigration, what is needed is the local equivalent of a "Marriage Certificate" that can only be obtained AFTER being legally and lawfully married. The actual name and issuing agency varies by country. Mike E has provided the information and answer to your direct question. Having a third party ask questions about one's case is an inefficient way to get help. Best for your friend to ask instead of you doing it for them.

    Both Joint Sponsors and their household members, must provide evidence they are either US Citizens or Lawful Permanent residents, and evidence they are currently living in the USA. Yes, really. Yes, I'm sure. See page 17 of the I-864 instructions.

    It's usually stamped or written on your entry stamp. Anyway, you can check the country's Embassy website about visas, for the maximum stay for a visitor. If you are entering via the visa waiver program or "ESTA", it's always 90 days. It's about the country you are entering. The USA doesn't care how long you are gone.
  14. pushbrk
    And you are saying that YOU cannot enter the USA on or before that date? If so, contact the Immigrant Visa unit about reissuing the visa. This will likely require a new medical exam. Another option is to make a quick trip in and out of the USA now, BEFORE the surgery. That means both of you.

    Actually the answer to your direct question is "no". There are two places you state "income". The first is the tax section, which is about PAST income. If you are now "employed" it will be your "current income" stated in a separate place on the form, that will qualify you as sponsor, that number would not include anything that is from the "past". Take the gross pay for a pay period, and multiply by the number of pay periods in a full year. (every two weeks is X26) That is your current annual income. Nothing about last year matters, if you don't have enough "current income".
  16. pushbrk
    It's all good then. That notice is based on your current income on your latest tax return. Just ignore it.
  17. pushbrk
    Depends on what YOU think is "short". You are allowed to spend some maximum time in any other country. The required exit date is on your entrance stamp, or well known already by you. Respect that, or their are consequences.

    You have hijacked another member's topic. Yours will be spit from this topic, but please provide more detail of your case.

    What is the expiration date on her visa? USCIS is not involved at this point.
  20. pushbrk
    That's fine,,,,,BUT,,, you could file the petition now. Up to you.
  21. pushbrk
    Some are content with just answering direct questions. I'm more concerned with educating the reader, not just the OP. To each their own. What's to bicker?
  22. pushbrk
    Yes, do that BEFORE the marriage.
  23. pushbrk
    While the above is true, with few exceptions, there is only one interview location in each country. Note that some countries have none, so interviews are in a different country. For Japan, it's Tokyo.
  24. pushbrk
    Probably not.

    Good answers already. As to where to marry, you can do either, but if you marry in the USA, you would need to leave and wait out the visa process. Mary outside the USA, you still wait out the visa process.
