US Immigration from Madagascar

Earlier this month,

1) My fiance came over on a K1 visa with her 9-year-old son.

2) I was laid off from my job as an IT analyst.

3) My fiance and I married.

I have my own 16-year-old son.

I have no current income, so I lack the necessary income to support a family of four. My savings and assets are less than required as well. I require a joint sponsor.

A retired family member who rents out rooms for extra income agreed to joint sponsor me on the i-864 documents. Through a combination of retirement plans, social security, and room rental, she should be able to joint sponsor my wife and her son based on income. Although she would be able joint sponsor me based on assets, the documentation to prove such assets would be extremely difficult.

I am thinking she would be required to show enough income to support three (herself, my wife, my wife's son)--$26,662. She would not have to show enough income to support me and me son as well. Is my thinking correct?

Question 2: Any caveats about how she should best support her income?

What happens if the sponsor gets laid off right before filing the i864? The sponsor currently has little savings, no property, and is receiving only unemployment (current income is below the poverty line). However, the sponsor has an excellent income history and a lot of available credit. Can the beneficiary be forced to return because the sponsor is laid off?

My stepson and fiancee had physical exams (a couple months ago) for the fiance visa before they left their home country. They were tested for various conditions and received any inoculations that were missing. My fiancee brought the medical exam in a sealed envelope and gave it to customs on her arrival.

We went to register her son for school today. The school requires the same tests and inoculations to be done before her son can go to school. Is it possible to get the results and inoculation records from the visa medical exam for her son? If so, how? Or does her son need to get examined and inoculated again?

I recall others seeing this as well. Unfortunately I don't have much information on how that embassy works, but embassies do have their own rules that can differ from the DOS guidelines. I'd say go by what it says in packet 3 (that screenshot) as that's from the embassy and they are the ones issuing the visa and the ones that will request/review the police certificates.

Was she living in that country for over 12 months? You can live in a foreign country and still only visit other countries (or your home country). For instance, my fiancee is Filipino but worked in KSA for several years. She visited PI a couple times throughout the year, but her residence remained in KSA (until her contract ended and she moved back to Philippines). While she never spent over 12 months consecutively in KSA (or even 6 consecutive months), she did "live" there for over 12 months.

Please can you tell me if i need a police certificate, i stayed in Qatar for an overall period of 11 months only on a working visa ( i didn't have a resident status though), the problem is the Qatari authorities don't deliever PCC for visa holders, what's the solution in this case please?
