US Immigration from Jordan

We really need your advice. So here's the story..

• Husband is the USC. Our I-130 is in Vermont, and will probably get approved April 2023 or later.
• 2022 is husband's first year making qualifying income to sponsor an immigrant.
• Husband has filed his taxes previous years, but tax transcript 2022 will be our supporting document for the I-864EZ.
• Joint sponsor is not an option.

For tax year 2023, want to paper file, apply for an ITIN, and MFJ, etc. All of the above considered, 1) will that be a good decision to make, given that we'll need the tax transcript 2022 for the affidavit of support?

2) How much does it take from paper filing at the beginning of tax season until the tax transcript is ready? Will that delay the NVC stage?

Hello everyone,

I'm actually very confused about this. I don't really understand IRS documents, so bear with me...

My husband has started working in the US only a few months ago this year. Previously he worked abroad at a foreign company and didn't earn enough to have to pay income tax.

1. Now, if we move into the NVC stage as of 2022, what kind of financial documents will apply? To narrow it down, we qualify for I-864EZ.

2. He qualifies to be the sole sponsor as he makes the 125% poverty guidelines many times over. But will this being his first W2 mean we need a joint sponsor?

3. As far as I understand, a tax return (for the year of 2021) will not help us. Is that right? What should we use instead?

I know that's a stupid question, but just to be safe... from what I understand I-864 is king. But if we qualify for I-864EZ, should we use that form alone or accompany it with the I-864?

NOA1 says Texas Service Center, but Lawfully says Potomac. I know you get transferred all the time without being notified, but this is just hours after E-filing.

I just wonder if Lawfully is sophisticated enough to know. Anyone faced this?

If the petitioner's mailing address is the same as his current address, is there no need to add it in this section?
