The I-864 is a 2D-barcoded document. As you fill it out electronically, a barcode is generated below the solid black line on each page. USCIS uses that to scan in all the data. OR you can just print and write it in. But don't mix and match because they may just scan it and miss the handwritten info.

There's several 2D barcoded forms, with the I-864 being the most common. The others (that I know of) are:

  • I-131 (AP)
  • G-28 (Attorney)
  • I-821 (TPS)

By the way what are your thoughts on the latest decision about DACA ?

I think Trump didn't "struggle with this decision for 6 months".

I think he jumped at the first chance he got.

 

-Proposing the RAISE act to eliminate some family and employment visas

-Eliminating the Diversity Visa Lottery

-Now the DACA ending.

 

I'm waiting for him to find a way to declare that naturalized citizens are not "real" citizens, some day in the future.

 

He doesn't seem against illegal immigration only...I get the feeling he's against all forms of immigration---Period.

In the "DACA talking points" memo, the White House laid out a number of bullet points for supporters on Tuesday's announcement outlining the administration's action. One bullet point suggests DACA participants should prepare to leave the country.
 
"The Department of Homeland Security urges DACA recipients to use the time remaining on their work authorizations to prepare for and arrange their departure from the United States -- including proactively seeking travel documentation -- or to apply for other immigration benefits for which they may be eligible," the memo says.
 
This sums it up, sadly, in DHS's eyes.

The immigration lawyers will take this into account and create magic for DACA recipients.

Except the immigration lawyers really have no sway when it comes down to USCIS approval or denial.

I think you should go ahead and file I-131 as well, its free when filed with I-485 because we might have family emergencies and might have to go out of country.
