A little confusion with the I-864

[expatriot 0]

Hi everyone, 

I received an NOA2 that said the I-130  was approved and is being forwarded to the NVC.

I've been reading guides on the next steps and they seem to suggest that my wife ( the beneficiary abroad ) will be getting the I-864 for me ( USC in the US ) to fill out and send back.

Can someone clarify this? Shouldn't the NVC send the I-864 to me instead to fill out and send back?

 

Thank you

no, you will be getting the i864, the affidavit  of support is for you to fill out

Thanks aleful , it says in the guide here http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide1 :

Interview Forms / Items:

"9.	I-864 Affidavit of Support Form along with past 3 year U.S tax returns (or transcripts) and any other financial documents required."

 

So I need to make a copy of the I846 I filed and all the documents associated with it and send it overseas for my wife's interview?

 

Thanks again.

No you send it to the NVC. 

 

Please read the NVC wiki guide.

Thank you . I was wondering why it was added as an interview item in the guide.

That's what caused the confusion.

Because the beneficiary should also take a copy to interview and if anything changes the beneficiary should take an updated original to interview.
