US Immigration from Colombia

Hello visa journey family I have a question regarding the I-864A , does our co-signer need just his tax return or does it have to be an IRS tax transcript report? and for how many years back is required for our spousal visa?

thank you all in advance.

.

I am in the process of filling form N-400, I came across part 10, Question 9, they asked about previous spouse immigration status when marriage ended. My first husband was undocumented, I don t think that would be a problem but for some reason I feel uneasy answering this question, I am not sure what to write on the explain box , what would be the appropriate term? Ilegal Immigrant, Undocumented? Unlawful Resident? Has anyone else been in this situation? TIA.

Hi there,

This seems like an obscure question. We were married in May of 2023 and my wife has been on a student visa several times here in the US.

We filed for a change of status in June and she already has done her biometrics.

Sadly, her father was just diagnosed with cancer in Colombia. It might be short and it might be long but it s terminal.
With the wait times here seemingly endless (we have an attorney), is it even possible to get permission to leave and re-apply or shift her app to her home country of Colombia while caring for him? Are there any options others than starting over?

thanks!

Anyone have experience w wait times for administrative processing in Colombia? Consular officer requested a new copy of birth certificate which we submitted 4 weeks ago ... No updates provided on website or emails.

Received the passport with the visa in it today. Just now. The IV issue date is 25JUL2023 with an expiration date on 30DEC2023..It is an IR1 visa.

Why is it good for only 5 months or so? Too late to call the embassy in Bogota. On the bottom of the visa it states:

212(g) (2) (B)

IV DOCS IN CCD

UPON ENDORSEMENT SERVES AS TEMPORARY I-551 EVIDENCING PERMANENT RESIDENCE FOR 1 YEAR

Any ideas on what this is about?
