HI .
I am from India &

a) I have to list a cosponsor when i go for interview. Does anyone know if
US Embassy here will also accept beneficiarie's assets , like bank balance PPF, bonds etc etc.

and

How rigid is it in Indian embassy about a 25 yrs age difference?? She is elder than me and she is in US.We are all confident and dying in love for each other.....just wanted to know , to be ready with answers to give on their faces !!!

THanks from my heart !!!

I don't have any experience in co-sponsorship, but I think they do accept the beneficiary's assets, too. What kind of visa are you trying for, K1 or K3? You can read the instructions of the sponsorship forms (I-134 or I-864), it may have info there.

25 years is a big age difference for India, especially when the USC female is the older one. They also don't like it if either person has been married before and has children. However, many people have been granted the visas so you can do it too! Just have plenty of proof from a long courtship, and be fully confident in the interview. I am the female USC 16 years older than my Indian husband, and we got approved fine! Good luck to you!

Thanks !! Ya we are applying for K1.So I can show my assets from INdia too ..............Ya she has a girl who is quite grown up and stays seperate.YA we are showing plenty of proofs starting from 100s of pics, emails , chats , scrren shots , gifts bills passport copy, my card statement for what i spent there , my plane tickets, statements from her family members and friends about us.We have dated for 8 months almost before i visited USA ......
my mom & elder brother suports me but my dad doesnt ......so shd that create any problem ?? shd i make a appraisal from my mom & brother about our relationship...???

For the interview stage, if possible get a notarized Affidavit from your mother and brother. You don't have to mention your dad. The Indian Consulate likes to hear that you have family approval, it will help you a lot.

Everything else sounds good, best wishes for a smooth visa journey!

Thanks !! I wd look for more help and advice n the future !!!

Proof of your visit to your fiancee in the US is excellent evidence that your intentions are genuine. Be sure to provide copies of your airline boarding passes (and any other documents relative to that visit, especially items that indicate the two of you spent time together) to your fiancee for use in your original K-1 petition to the USCIS.

Best wishes!

hi,

My Interview Questions were tough for sure.. you can take the affadavit of ur moms and brothers support..... SUBMIT EVERYTHING TO THE VFS .... because the CO officer has no time to look at your docs at the time of interview... The CO like to be pre prepared with the case and your paperwork.. and they are reallly organised and fast.

Best Of luck
