Hello all. Our case was DQ'd in April. However, the embassy in Islamabad is exteremly slow these days taking 2+ years to schedule an interview. If the parent has a valid visitor visa to the US, can the interview be moved and held in the US if the beneficiary travels to the US on a visit visa?

thank you. We have decided to proceed with filing the forms with the bank statements. We thought its best to get in line instead of waiting for the job, Worst case, we will get an RFE even though bank statements are much beyond the requirements. If we are successful, we should have the job/current income situation sorted out by the time of the interview. My husband is interviewing and hopes to land a job soon. About my original question, when filling out the I-864 and I-864A, should we add the tax records and bank statements on both sides or just one of the two forms since everything between us is joint?

Thank you, i am provding bank statements as suplimental which show cash in the bank 6 times as much as the 125% of the house hold size. Would that cover the problem?

We are filling out I864 (me) and I864A (my husband, household member) for my mom. I don't work and so we are adding my husband's income for the income/support requirements. We file taxes together (married filing jointly) and also hold joint bank accounts together. I have a couple of questions. 1: In both forms, they ask about taxes and income. Should I leave I864 fields empty or add the income, and tax there as well as I864A that my husband is filling out?. Also, what do we do with numbers in our checking/savings account since they are joint accounts? Add them in both forms and just the I864A? 2: My husband has been unemployed for the past couple of months. However, he expects to find a new job soon. Our tax returns show sufficient income over the past three years and our banks have more than enough to substitute for current income and meet the income criteria. Should we add someone else as a joint sponsor and/or wait until my husband finds a new job or file anyway? Thank you for your help.

Hi all, Thank you all for the responses. I guess the best course of action is to get the mother over and have her file for just the youngest one as a follow-in immediately and also file for the one that is over 21 (which will take longer). I did add all the children to the I-130 including the two married ones.

Hi all, I am a US Citizen and filed I-130 for my mom on October 22, 2021. My mom's case got approved on the 24th of February 2023 (roughly a week ago) and it arrived at NVC yesterday. I have two brothers who were under the age of 21 and unmarried when I filed my mom's application and still are unmarried though one is now over the age of 21. At the time of filing, one of my brothers was barely under 21 born on 11/22/2000 (20 years and 11 months old) and the second is still under 21 (born on 11/29/2004). When I filed the 1-130 petition for my mom, I added their names to the I-130 application. I used an online CSPA calculator, and both qualify from the under the age of 21 perspective, but my question is do they qualify as Derivative beneficiaries of my mom's visa application? If yes, the CEAC says I can add derivatives under the "applicant Information" section. Does that section open after pay the fees for the primary applicant because I don't see it yet? Finally, When I add the derivative/accompanying relatives (my brothers) will CEAC tell me if they qualify or not? thank you
