They told me to come back when all the above ready

Hi sam,

Just want to ask if you were given a checklist prior to ur interview sched or were u already case completed? Why is the embassy just asking this from u now? And the contract of lease, were they asking for a proof that u and ur family will be living in that same address together?

@guillermorjoanna... May i just re phrase what did u say, just check me if im wrong... Did u mean the original i864 and i864a are required for u to submit... But if u submit them in scanned or photocopy even the signature is original, they will not accept it?

Im not sure about that,but for what i have known is it forms must be download online...but u can ask other if it is acceptable...im not sure about that but read this i hope it will help you the letter they send to my husband

- so during ur interview, you were asked to give this. Yes u need to give the original form with signatures of the i-864 and i-864 of the joint sponsor or i864a if its a household member

But were u able to send this to them when u submitted or aos or not?

Same here, im also confused. Why its only now they asked u those documents to submit? Did they not submitted the originals from the time u r submitting financial evidence? Is it indicated in ur interview letter that u must bring those documents? I just want to ask because i dont want this to happen to me...

[iamtintontan 0]

Yeah i want to know too if this was specifically requested in your interview letter. Were u given a checklist before u got ur interview date or were u case completd already and then in your interview letter they asked u to bring the original aos again

Pls let us know so we could prepare this too

We submitted aos original but the prblm is my husband doesnt meet required poverty guideline bec my husband income 2014 is only 17500$.... I havent received any checklist before my interview

[sam19866 2]

guys they asked me to provide original joint sponsor I 864 since i didn't submitted original to NVC also they need form 1040 for tax and W2 .

SO it easy if you guys submitted the original to NVC so embassy they will not ask for it again

my mean point was for my wife to must bein US before me and resubmit the above documents

[sam19866 2]

Hi sam,

Just want to ask if you were given a checklist prior to ur interview sched or were u already case completed? Why is the embassy just asking this from u now? And the contract of lease, were they asking for a proof that u and ur family will be living in that same address together?

[guillermorjoanna 0]

did they ask you for joint sponsor or only new form for you husband

The form we submit before is i-864ez...thats y they request i-864 and i -864a during my interview

[qazze 4]

no check list.... they asked this things during my interview

did they sent you a checklist before interview and they mentioned the same documents should be along with you at the time of interview etc?

Can you please paste all your checklist here?

[iamtintontan 0]

May i know when u submitted ur AOS and financial evidence to NVC?

Because I think maybe when u submitted ur AOS to NVC, you are still meeting the minimum income using the old version of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.

I just checked USCIS and i see that the Federal Poverty Guidelines was updated last march 1, 2015. So maybe u submitted ur AOS to NVC before march 1,2015 and maybe during that time you are looking at the old version of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. And probably the reason why u didnt get a checklist from NVC is because during the time that u submitted ur AOS to them, you are still meeting it based on the old version.

So i guess we should all check when we submitted our AOS to NVC and see if we are still meeting the minimum income based on the documents we sent them using the most updated Federal Poverty Guidelines.

Here is the link:

http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-864p.pdf

Because mine, i remember that the AOS we submitted has an income of 48k which is to support a household of 5 (me, husband, son and my husband's mom and dad, because we used them as household members). So looking at the most updated Federal Poverty Guidelines, we are still meeting the household income for 5 which should be 35k.

So guys maybe we should all check and see if we are still meeting the income requirements. if you know that you're not meeting the poverty guidelines anymore based on the most recent Federal Poverty Guidelines from USCIS, then maybe we should start preparing our new i-864 together with sponsors and other financial evidence and bring them to the interview.
