K1visaHopeful

A month since your shipping receipt says it was recieved? That's when the 30 days is counted for eligibility to email A Lockbox. Response (IF ANY, other than the obvious receiving Noa1 or a returned package), can take up to 10 weeks.

As a K1, you must FILE I485 within one year of the date of your overseas medical. When you are INTERVIEWED is irrelevant. Please complete your BLANK VJ timeline in reciprocity. Your statistics help all VJ members while our answers help you personally. Please fill it out ASAP!

USG means? Your wife could not be a Greencard holder AND waiting to adjust status. If she is a GC holder she has already adjusted her status. Is she waiting for her 10 year GC and removal of conditions? Your VJ timeline is completely blank. If filled out, these questions above could have been avoided. Please fill it out before we continue answering.

Note for a discrepancy above: The medical abroad is not completed on an I693 form. Only US Civil surgeons use I693 so a K1 who completed their medical abroad would not have an I693 from abroad. Panel Physician's abroad use the DS30xx series of forms only.

Your K1 medical is valid for one year from when it was completed to when you FILE. When you are interviewed is irrelevant. If income has changed complete a new one and provide new financial Supporting Evidence. Yes. No. It is your K1 documents that you submitted with your AOS packet. BUT you only submitted PHOTOCOPIES so now you BRING the ORIGINALS AND another PHOTOCOPY of everything. Overthinking

They DO have your medical. It was sent from PP to the embassy, and you carried it to your POE in the sealed visa envelope and handed it in to them. It was then transferred from DHS to USCIS for storage in your Afile. Submitting a photocopy of the DS3025 Vaccination Record is only a recommendation here. Why do we say that? Because most adjudicators are NOT used to K1 AOSers and are expecting I693s included in the AOS packet as they are required from EVERYONE ELSE BUT K1s. When they see a photocopy of the DS3025 in the K1 AoS packet, it reminds them to go look for your Afile to retrieve your medical package. So the answer is a FIRM no. Unless you are requested for a new medical, do not get one. You'll just have to hope your adjudicator has more than half a brain and knows about K1s and the medical exception.

You should submit a photo copy of your personal copy of the Vaccination Sheet only. Neither. You shouldn't have it. Don't show anyone you do. Your choice. But never send originals as form instructions state.

Alright, then ensure you read the instructions on how to fill it out when you have not filed for each of the the 3 most previous years. Not only do you have to fill out the form but you'll need to make a written statement explaining why 3 weren't filed. See the instructions for details.

Your sponsor of your K1 visa is a US citizen, correct? You'll need to explain why they have not filed taxes for the previous 3 years as, to qualify to be a sponsor, they MUST file taxes UNLESS their taxable income did not meet the minimum filing threshold. Is that true? Or is there some other reason why your original sponsor didn't file? *also note USCs must report all worldwide income AND must file even if they were not living in the US during the tax year.

You are asking about I485 in the title if this thread but your post is about your embassy appointment documents? Please clarify so this post can be moved to the correct forum. Also, your VJ timeline is completely blank. Please fill it out in reciprocity asap. Our answers help you while your statistics help all VJ members.

Also note that the I864a can only be filed by a CO-sponsoring Household member who is also BOTH: 1. A parent, sibling or child of the original sponsor and 2. Lives with the original sponsor at the same physical residence. Any other person than that is automatically a Joint Sponsor and that means they are standalone, can't combine income with the original sponsor and must meet the $$ guidelines for their own household PLUS any immigrants.

Post removed from the K1 AOS forum as you are not a K1 and moved to the Bringing Family Members of Permanent Residents to America forum.

Please complete the K1 visa portion of your VJ timeline in reciprocity. While it may no longer be important to you, your fellow VJ members from your country rely on accurate statistics from fellow member timelines. Please pay it forward as we help you for free too.

The OP is in Ohio so that means they sent theirs to Chicago. As each Lockbox is different, Noa1 tImelines may be different there. It would be of benefit for them to join the K1 AOS forum and find fellow Chicago LB filers and see their CURRENT timelines.

What do your peer filers say in the March K1 AOS filers forum? Have they started to receive Noa1s in the mail yet? What's their timeline like? That would tell you the most as it would be the current rate to expect. ???

None if these questions can be answered to fact by anyone. You have a 50/50 chance. Yes it's reasonable. Does mean it will happen for sure? No. If you pay the fee you might lose it. It you don't pay the fee and need to use it, you're sol. There is no right answer or exact science.

That would not be the case. If it WAS the case, they would have given a waiver for "unavailable" and your DS3025 would be complete IF everything else for your age group was completed.

All vaccine records must be either brought to your panel physician appointment or completed AT your panel physician appointment. Your DS3025 is not complete and your error because of that. So..... Most likely yes. Why? Because most civil surgeons do not offer only to transcribe your new record to an I693. Why? Because they are in a cash money making business. You can call around your state to see. I've also recommended to check other nearby states as travel costs to them for a vaccine transcribed I693 only civil surgeon may be cheaper than a local one who can charge up to $1k. How much was visamedicals cost for HepB?

1. Meaning it's HepB is BLANK? No letter for a waiver? 2. Is your DS3025 marked incomplete on the bottom left corner? Start there. The rest below depends on those answers. PS. please COMPLETE your VJ timeline in reciprocity.

Kindly fill out your VJ timeline in reciprocity. I'm not understanding your process otherwise so we need that to help you. Your wife and step son already have their GC and are now filling I751 Removal of Conditions????

@Bignogginsjust so it's not misinterpreted... As a VJ member, your obligation is to fill out your VJ timeline as your statistics help every one here. Your timeline both helps members figure out estimates for THEIR timeline AND they help US to answer you properly (for free). A blank one helps no one. Fill it out ASAP please!

1. Your father is a standalone joint sponsor and will need to meet the income requirements for HIS household PLUS the immigrant. You will file an I864 and explain why you did not have to legally file taxes. He will file an I864. He cannot file an I864a. 2. Your father is a CO-sponsor and will need tp meet the income requirements for your COMBINED household meaning you must all live together. You will file an I864 and again, explain your tax situation. He will file an I864a as YOUR CO-Sponsor and you will COMBINE income (it any). He cannot be a joint sponsor and file I864a. You have confused the terms. Ensure you understand the difference.

No. Your first immigration benefit will appear in your new married name (IF you apply for it in that name). 99.99999% of K1s are not able to change their name on their SSN until after they receive their first immigration benefit because most SSA agents will not issue one in any name other than what is on your I94 and passport. It is 100%normal to not have a married name SSN card until you get your first immigration benefit. You can read through the many many many posts on SSN application for K1s by using the search bar. *your I94 expires then. Your K1 visa expired the moment you entered the US. Note that it also asks if you would like a REPLACEMENT card. That is why YOU are applying for one because you want a REPLACEMENT CARD in your new name (IF x your maiden name card does in fact come at all). And even if you don't get the one you went in person for now, you can order one this way too. Just answer the questions correctly in the moment you send off AOS. Your name changed the moment you married and decided to use any names as listed on your MC. Having ID is just proof. Your hubby is American. They all think that. It's only true for Americans. IMMIGRANTS change their immigration name FIRST (by getting their first immigration benefit (EAD or GC)) and then apply for other identifying documents like DLs/State IDs and an SSN in the married name. Leave it blank FOR NOW but fill it out accurately just before you mail it in case your maiden name card arrives. It must be completed regardless. No. That isn't the process. AND you may end up with none if they cancel your original application. Only if it happened IN the US. The instructions are clear on that part. It it happened outside of the US, just explain.

If using current employment income as current income, an Employment Verification Letter plus six months of current paystubs is recommended. You'll see that recommendation in the instructions. Not part of the question but in a different section she'll explain why she didn't file taxes. Yes. She can get a statement of annual benefits can't she? As above. Her EVL will state her estimated earnings and her 6 months worth of paystubs will back that up. As above I moved it.
