I received a RFE from USCIS ( intent to marry )on April 22 and my lawyer send them package on May 10. How do I know if Uscis receives the package? Also, how long will I get I NOA2? Someone please help answer this question.

Hello VJ friends,

 

      My fiance and I received a great news,NOA2 today May 16, 2013. NOA1 received on January 15, 2013, no RFEs. It came to us in a surprise since we were told that NOA2 usually arrives around 6-8 months. This is good news for all January filers, CSC. Thank you Visa Journey friends for all your help!

 

***jops & alen***

what documents does it come down to?

would it be enough if our co-sponsor only includes a letter of employment and at least 2 years of tax returns? 


his annual income is well above the poverty line, so there are no bank statements needed. correct? i read that you only need bank statements, when you put down assets, which is not necessary when the income is sufficient. 

also i read if the letter of employment includes when he started to work, what his annual income is and if the employment is permanent or not, you don't need to add recent pay stubs. is that correct? 


also, does the form I-134 usually need to notarised, or does that depend solely on the consulate and country of the beneficiary? 

thanks for any help you can provide! 

On the interview notice under the items you must bring with you to the interview it states:

"A completed medical examination (Form I-693) and vaccination supplement in a seal envelope (unless already submitted)."

We sent in copies of all medical forms from the Visa medical exam with the AOS application. Do we now need to get the I-693 completed or is bringing copies of what we already sent in sufficient? Has anyone successfully completed the interview without I-693?

Hi,

I really hope that someone can help me:

While I was pregnant and on vacation visting family outside the US, I had a medical condition that didn't allow me to travel back. Now my child is born and healthy and I would like to return to the US (especially to see my husband again

I found information on the US Embassy site in Mumbai, that if I'm returning to the US after the child is born, haven't been back since then, and the child is under two years old, all I have to do is buy a ticket and go??? (see quote from the embassy below)

a) Does anyone have any experience with this? Won't I need something for the airline since my child only has foreign passport and no visa or esta?

b) Right now I'm outside the US under the one year absent rule, but If my travel plans change, I might be longer outside the US then a year. Will this have any affect because I don't have a reentry permit (I-131), since I didn't plan on staying outside the US more then a year. They do write on the website, that the child has to be younger then two years of age. Even if I have a rentry permit for 24 months, my child could be born abroad and be under two years and I could easily be outside the US for more then two years actually (I hope you get the point).

c) If it is that simple to just go, what happens at the airport in the US? Do I just go to the counter say here is my green card and this is my new born (with passport, birth certificate etc.) and they just stamp my child a I-551 into the passport?

d) Does my child receive the real green card in the mail, or do I have to do anything else in the US?

I'm a little reluctant, because the process which is posted on the Embassy site is too simple and as we all know, USCIS procedure doesn't involve the term simple!

Thank you for any help.

Best,

Jenny

[b]I am a legal permanent resident of the U.S. While I was outside the U.S., I gave birth to a child. Now I wish to return to the U.S. May I take my child with me?[/b]
[i]As outlined in 9 FAM 42.1 N1.1, a child under two years of age who was born of a Permanent Resident Alien mother during a temporary visit abroad does not require an immigrant visa in order to travel to the United States if the alien parent is in possession of a valid Form I-551 (i.e. green card), a valid reentry permit, or an SB-1 visa. The child must be admitted to the U.S. within two years of birth and the accompanying parent must be applying for readmission upon first return after the birth of the child. We suggest that the accompanying parent carry documentary evidence of his or her relationship to the child, including the child's passport and birth certificate.[/i]
