Hi! My husband submitted an I-751 back in 2023 and we recently received a response from USCIS that we need to provide additional information. In his USCIS account, we see that he can respond to the RFE online, which is great, but it says that it is limited to only 10 documents, and we have more than 10 documents, because we want to ensure we provide enough evidence this time. The letter we received said that we needed to include the letter itself, and we have a cover letter explaining all of the documents, so it seems like we actually can only upload 8 documents, unless I am missing something?

There is some instruction about if you have other documents, you can upload them under the Documents tab as "unsolicited documents", but will they even look at these other documents then? I am attaching a screenshot of the instructions from the website.

Any advice on how we should handle uploading the documents? Should we just prioritize the ones we feel are the best evidence and submit those?

Thank you!

We have our interview coming up end of April.

My brother and sister-in-law are the co-sponsors for my husband and step-daughter.

Should they come with us?

The instructions say to bring all of the documentation "unless already submitted."

We already gave them everything.

Should we print it all out and bring it again or will they even look at it?

I know I must bring our marriage certificate, his, my and step-daughters birth certificates v and translations for theirs. I'm assuming my and his divorce decrees and translation for his.

I've already submitted all this but the form does not say "unnless already submitted" here, so I'll bring it again.

I was thinking of uploading photos of us together at random events taken since the packet was sent. Should I bring hard copies as well?

What's suggested. Should I really bring a second copy of everything they already have?

Do I need to bring my brother and sister-in-laws birth certificates as well, even though copies were sent?

It mentions letters from their employers proving employment and pay rate, is this a requirement or just one of the options for proving income.

We did already send in their tax transcripts for past 3 years.

I was thinking of bringing their income tax transcript for 2025 (I had sent '24, '23, and '22) So would that suffice or will they have to get letters from their employers as well?

And again, should they come with us?

TIA!

Edited to add: We applied for work auth for both of them at the time we sent the original packet. We haven't heard anything and the site shows only "current."

Does anyone know if they are even doing work auths? How long after the interview do people usually get the green card. If I'm not mistaken, that serves as work auth as well, correct?

I got my green card through family based(sibling). My wife got approved visa interview and is here with me. Unfortunately, my unmarried son didn t get visa approval due to over age(was within age criteria while I filed the case). Please, advice that how can I bring him to USA? Should I continue through previous i-130 approval form or NVC approval or should I appeal again from very beginning. Please, advise.

I'm filing online under the 3years rule and we do not have ANY children. However, they require that you upload child and spousal support documents. Otherwise, I can't not proceed with filing. What do I do? Do I just upload a page saying we do not have any children. I'm confused but when I asked about children I put 0 in the field.

Hello,

Had a question about tax transcripts. I am filing for my wife's N400.

All previous tax returns have no issues, but for last tax year, I went into self-employment in addition to my regular job. Closer to filing deadline, it was a mess trying to figure out what I actually owe and get all the expenses together etc. so I filed for an extension and made an estimated tax payment. Found an accountant who specializes in my field, and finally got everything sorted and filed accurately in October before deadline. The tax liability turned out to be greater than the estimated tax I paid, so I was charged a "late tax penalty" with interest. My wife is strictly W2 but we file jointly. I set up a 6 month payment plan and paid it all off recently (3 months before due date of payment plan). My question is, will this affect GMC? The penalty was only a couple hundred, presumably because I didn't make estimated quarterly payments or my estimated payment at time of extension was not enough.

Thank you.
