Just saw this on a thread and thought I'd share here too as it's relevant. You can now get the IRS tax transcripts online (no longer need to wait to receive it by mail)!! Look here: http://www.irs.gov

My comment was not ignorant at all. I simply asked the person what they honestly thought it meant. That others thought my comment was funny had no basis on my asking if the person could understand w

Question...

So according to the London embassy PDF, no one can get in for an interview without the confirmation letter, yet we shouldn't rely on receiving the letter and should keep calling NVC for the interview date. How do we get in with no letter? :S

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.

you are only required to show current tax return that's 2012 and show on I-864 20,11, 2010. Unless he wants you to do 2013 tax return. if that's the case you going to have a bit of delay.

As long as you give over both email addresses to an operator at NVC, you'll receive all correspondence (including the interview letter) by email. Not sure where you read about not relying on receiving the interview letter as that's not true...
