HELP, issue with filing I-130 online!
pushbrk replied to ashleyrenee7's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Make sure not to leave any spaces blank. If there's a province, enter it. If not, enter Not Applicable -
joint sponsor income
pushbrk replied to Paris Nicole's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
If they don't have W2 form, they should submit the Tax Return Transcript from their latest tax return. I would NOT submit assets instead of income, and in this case, there is no need to add assets anyway. Yes, you'll need to submit evidence of current income in the form of 1 recent pay stub for each. Note, they at least HAD W2 forms if they are employed. Maybe they've misplaced them. -
i864 Question - embassy interview
pushbrk replied to CarlosV's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
You are sponsoring only one immigrant per affidavit, so don't check any boxes or add any names in part 3. I told you that using different words. If you follow my instructions, you'll get the same result. Now I've told you in the exact words you want to hear. This is covered very well in the step by step instructions. -

i864 help (Manila embassy)
pushbrk replied to deaner2211's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Information from three tax returns is entered. Only the latest is required to be submitted. Employer letter is OK, but include the latest pay stub too. You'll most likely notice it shows year to date income. No need for multiple pay stubs. -
i864 Question - embassy interview
pushbrk replied to CarlosV's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Do not list your stepdaughter as an immigrant on your wife's affidavit. Do not list your wife as an immigrant on your step daughter's affidavit. Each gets their own. Each affidavit lists only one immigrant. -
i864 Question - embassy interview
pushbrk replied to CarlosV's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Correct procedure now is to provide two new I-864 forms that are properly completed. You failed to follow the instructions that indicates 1. One affidavit for each petitioned immigrant, and 2. Don't count anybody twice. They no you qualify, but you need to form is a contract. You only provided a contract for your wife. Do not list any other immigrants. Child is simply counted in your household size on the wife's form, and wife is counted as spouse on the child's form. -
Ir-1 visa revoke
pushbrk replied to Discouraged's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Whether anybody finds it strange or not isn't relevant in this context. If a Consular Officer thinks the marriage was entered into to gain an immigration benefit, that's grounds to deny the visa. However, I'm not speculating on the reason for the denial. I DO expect the foreign spouse has at least a really good idea why the visa was denied. They were there. They know the questions and answers, and they know whether any information given was false. Consular Officers are trained to make these decisions, based on the totality of circumstances. Sometimes they know things the applicant doesn't know they know. Sometimes they get it wrong too. Seldom, is it an actual mystery to the applicant though. -

Name change questions - Approved I130
pushbrk replied to umith's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Not surprised. I would too, if I knew the person had the same understanding of "last name" as I did. I don't assume that though. When I gather such information, I use the term, "Family Name" because EVERYBODY knows what that means. It's why it's on the forms first, with (Last name) in parenthesis, in case it helps one understand. Family name does NOT come LAST worldwide.- 18 replies

There is no reason to wait. Reissue the passport with the name you want, whenever. As long as it is before the interview. Earlier the better though.- 18 replies

"(Last Name)" in parenthesis. Family name is the main heading. Yes, Surname is used on passports, not US Immigration forms.- 18 replies

Ir-1 visa revoke
pushbrk replied to Discouraged's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
There will be a "respond by" date on the notice. Usually, it's more than 30 days, but it IS a firm date, not a number of days. -

No way to reliably predict what will happen. But, yeah, if you're wearing a ring, call him your fiancé.
