Hi everyone! We received an RFE stating that the sponsor, my husband, does not qualify due to insufficient income. His tax transcript for 2022 shows that he's made an amount that's less than 125% of poverty guidelines income requirements. He was actually out of the US and made a modest salary working at a school in SEA. Yet, this year being back in the US he's got a job her that pays way above of the required amount. Unfortunately we could not find a joint sponsor. We're planning to respond to RFE with a letter from employer and pay stubs from the last 6 months, as well as a letter explaining our situation. My husband talked to a lawyer who said that since his current income is sufficient it should be fine. Though I can see that many sources state that when your case is processed within the US they only care about the amount shown in the previous year tax return. What do you think are the odds that we get approved relying on his current income? Maybe someone was in a similar situation and got approved? Thank you!

@Timona It was rejected due to some problem with the payment. I used a BoF debit card. Most likely the bank rejected the payment.

Hi! Unfortunately, I received a rejection notice for my AOS forms. The I-693 form was returned unsealed. My doctor is willing to help me but I am not sure if we can use the same form that the USCIS returned (with printed numbers at the bottom of the pages) and just seal it before resubmitting, or if we should reprint and re-sign this form. Any advice is highly appreciated

Hi! I'm filling out the forms for the AOS and it asks for an A-number in them. I've been in the US on a J-1 visa doing Work & Travel program years ago and lost all the related paperwork, so I'm not sure if I had this number. Do J-1 visa holders normally get one? Maybe someone else here was in the same situation. Thank you for advice in advance

Hi! My husband and I are looking at the CR-1 process and there might be a huge obstacle for us. As I understand, it is required to provide police clearance certificates from the countries where I resided before. In my case, I need to get a certificate from China and Cambodia as I spent over a year in both of these countries within the past five years . Generally speaking, it is nearly impossible to get these certificates since I do not reside in these countries anymore. These countries' embassies do not provide this document. In case with China, even if I go there, which would be a huge additional expense to the process that's already costly, there is a big chance that I won't be able to get the certificate. I might be able to find an agency that can get me the certificate from Cambodia but it would take months. The question is: What if I am unable to provide police clearance certificate from the countries where I lived in the past five years? Would it mean that there is no way that I can apply for a Green Card through the consular process? Maybe someone on this forum had a similar problem. Any advice or suggestion is highly appreciated.
