Affidavit Of Support Problem

[Naum 1]

For a wage/salary earner the extension letter and proof of current income is acceptable. For the self employed the tax return number is what's used. The person at NVC wasn't being deceptive.

Submit what you have and hope for the best. One thing that you learn on VJ is that there are no absolutes. Worst case scenario is a request for the 2011 return. At that point find the solution that works best.

Thanks for the help again .

Not really. When filing an extension, you still state your income. The affidavit needs to state the same income as shown on the 2011 extension.

Thanks for the help, i think he did same.

Having a copy of the extension he filed wouldn't hurt either.

Naum, please update your profile to say your country as Pakistan, your posts will then go to the Pakistan portal and people who have gone through Islamabad might be able to help you more. Also, please fill in your timeline when you get a chance!

If your not "dying" to get this immigration visa and your only reason is because your daughter is having surgery then why not just get a tourist visa? You can get letters from her Dr verifying her medical condition and pending surgery so why not just go that route? If you got the visa a few weeks before her surgery that would give you 5 1/2 months then you could always file for an extension for another couple months if needed. Then once your co-sponsor gets his/her taxes sorted out then you can just go through the immigration process. Just a suggestion.

Actually it was my wife's decision & She told me there is no catagory for visitor's Visa . Also our daughter needs to stay there for another 3 4 years & Visit visa expires when i come back (That's what she thought). That's the main reason, but If they reject then i wont re-apply. Because it will mean will have to wait for another year .

I hope so, i will let you know whether it was enough...

Of course there's a category for visitor visa, however, since you are married to a US Citizen, it is highly unlikely any application by you for such a visa would be approved. The spouse visa is for immigrating to the USA, but nobody will force you to stay longer than you wish. If you do not maintain permanent resident status, you'll lose the status.

If your cosponsor has money in the bank i think there is a 1 to 3 ratio of earned income, meaning if he/she has 3 times the minimum required in liquid assests that should satisfiy the afidavit of support. Also if they happend to approve you and that is the only thing pending for approval then your cosponsor could fill out the tax forms based on what he/she intends to file.

He thought his income was enough so he didn't fill out Assets's portion. Lets see what happens.....
