  1. Questions: What's the best way to organize these documents for submission? Should I: Option A: Combine 2023 tax return copy, W-2, and 1099 into one PDF for the main section (highlighted), then add 2021/2022 transcripts to "Additional AOS Supporting Documentation"? Option B: Upload 2023 tax return copy alone in the main section (highlighted), then submit everything else (2023 W-2, 1099, W7, older transcripts, paystubs, and employment verification) separately in the additional supporting documents section? Should I file the "2023 Verification of Non-Filing Letter" despite having submitted the tax return already? Looking for guidance on the most appropriate way to organize these documents so as to avoid an RFE. Documentation Status: Filed I-130 Tax Documentation: 3 most recent years available. 2023: Tax transcript NOT available on IRS website yet Have: Filed 2023 tax return copy, W-2, 1099, and W-7 2022 and 2021: Tax return transcripts available and ready to upload. Additional Documents Available: Last 6 months of paystubs Employment verification letter
  2. Wow, color me surprised. I didn't think I'd need help on this and after some research, I do.

  3. Hi, After our I-130 was approved two weeks ago, we've initiated the process of submitting documents for DQ. One challenge I'm trying to understand is how to handle income verification, given that my 2023 taxes were filed in September, but the transcript isn't yet available. I believe this might be related to filing a W7 in tandem with my return. As a result, my most recent tax year is still 2022 in my transcript account, but I've seen online suggestions that it's not advisable to use this year after the April filing deadline. To address this, I'm considering setting my most recent tax year to 2023 and providing the following supporting documents: (1) copy of filed Federal tax return, (2) W-2s, 1099, and any other schedules, (3) paystubs, (4) a notice of extension to file, and (5) an employer income verification letter. The remaining years will be provided via return tax return transcripts once they become available. I was also wondering if it would be wise to include the 2023 'Wage and Income Tax Transcript' with our submission. Should I say yes for "Have you filed a Federal income tax return for each of the three most recent tax years?" despite it not being in their records or set that to no? I'd appreciate any insights on our situation. Is it advisable to wait for the 2023 tax transcript, or should we proceed without it? I'm concerned about the potential delay to get DQ'd caused by RFEs :(.
  4. Hey Steve, how did that process go? We're also in the same boat and our I-130 has been approved and about to start the NVC stage. Do you have any linked to the process you underwent to clear the CFO?
  5. Thank you! I was just going to message you about this. One of your previous threads showed up with the exact same scenario as mine.
  6. Me and my wife are filing jointly for the 2024 tax year. We, as many of you all know who have done this, do not want to send in her passport for an ITIN. We obtained certified copies from PH gov to send in as ID of foreign status. On form W7, do we check box "Other" or "Passport"?. Spent hours on google and can't find this clear answer anywhere.
  7. No worries, appreciate the follow up to this internet stranger. Those documents will be extremely helpful, especially since we're just unsure what is being asked of the agency (we'd like to have everything ahead of time before visiting the agency). Looks like most are remote, curious if its possible to have them file online with the agency or does everything need to be done in person? thanks for the docs again! This is exactly what I was looking for as well, my googling failed me.
  8. Thank you, we're already visited Singapore together for our honeymoon. Defintely would have loved to do more visa free areas (like HK). Your example is reassuring, appreciate it
  9. Giving this a bump and hoping more can give some insights
  10. Thank you, that would be helpful. I also realized, because its the Japanese embassy, their paper work is a bit intense. I would appreciate if you could share a template of what you provided the agency! I'm in California have been to Japan multiple times. Would love to go there with my wife. Another question, do you recall which agency you used at the time (for SK or Japan). I am open to applying for two visas (at seperate times incase one gets rejected), to keep our options open.
  11. I wanted to extend this question for the South Korea application process. If it all, we want to keep our options open and wouldn't mind doing South Korea if the process is easier.
  12. Hello, Me (US citizen) and my wife (Philippines citizen) are currently in a long distance relationship and I am located in the US,she in the Philippines. We want visit Japan in Spring while we wait for the processing of our US visa application. As I understand all Filipino residents need to submit an application to the Japanese embassy for a tourist visa, which includes proof of income, tax returns, and bank statements. How can I best support this application process for my wife and what is the process of being a guarantor as her husband? We got married out of the country, so does providing that marriage certificate and a couple of my US based bank statements suffice? She is currently unemployed and transitioning her career and studying. I support her in that time. How can I best prove that she is capable of participating in this trip ( I make enough to support both of us because I have a well paying job). Can she submit my bank statements to the agency that will help her with the process? Can I simply right a letter explaining the situation? Has anyone else gone through this process? Any help would be appreciated!
  13. Me and my wife are not in the same country (I'm in the US, she in the Philippines). I can't find a clear answer on this, but want to make sure that we can travel together to other countries (not the US). We're thinking of visiting Japan in Spring while still waiting for the next NOA.
  14. For some reason, I assumed it would hurt it, this is just my personality of thinking through all the cases. In that case, I assume y'all filled out the following details if included.
