  1. Are you trying to file as Married-Filing Jointly? If so, you have to report income for the entire year, but you might be able to exclude some of the foreign income.
  2. I would suggest finding a knowledgeable tax pro for first year filing. Look for someone who knows foreign income, FBAR requirements, and foreign income exclusion.

  4. ONLINE This is what we uploaded for wife's N-400 under the 5 year rule: 5 years Tax transcripts Proof of my 1st marriage Termination Proof of Wife's 1st Marriage Termination Wife's Green Card Our Marriage Certificate
  5. ***Moved to Working and Traveling during US Immigration***
  6. I think that might be the most common reason OP saw that some people reported the foreign income while others did not.
  7. If you filed a MARRIED-FILING JOINTLY return, the entire year's world-wide income must be reported for both spouses.
  8. We filed a I-751 joint petition to remove conditions on wife's 2 year Green card. The receipt notice listed my wife as both petitioner and beneficiary....which is correct. Your case was not misclassified.
  9. I think her TPS has been terminated by the current administration. She is now desperate for a new route to a Green Card.....i.e., VAWA. I wouldn't be surprised if she is courting another USC for potential marriage.
  10. She might be unknowingly setting a trap for herself. Once she makes a VAWA claim, she will be putting herself on their radar. A failed case could result in her deportation.
  11. and thus, the VAWA claims begin.....just as we predicted.
  12. Be aware that the visa will be in the name listed on the passport. There is no requirement to ever change her name. My wife has not changed her name. We have been married almost 10 years. In our case, not changing her name made everything a lot less complicated.
  13. I would. This is evidence that you actually reside inside the US. Otherwise, an I-485 would not be appropriate.
  14. ***Moved to US Citizenship forum***
  15. Then you are obligated under the I-864 you signed until he either becomes a US citizen, has worked for 40 quarters, or has lost his status as a legal resident. I would find a good divorce attorney asap. You are NOT obligated to cooperate with his removal of conditions on the 2 year Green Card.
  16. Does he have a Green card? Your history indicates he did not adjust status through you.
  17. The only immigration issue for you is obligation under the I-864 (assuming he has already has a Green card).
  18. ***Moved to Effects of Major Family Changes On Immigration Benefits***
  19. You need a good divorce attorney...asap to help you protect yourself financially.
  20. An I-864 is not required for an I-765 or an I-131.
  21. ***One comment edited to removed outside link****
  22. Yes. That is residing. You slept, ate, and worked in the US during that 4 months.
  23. ***Old thread locked for further comments***
