US Immigration from Norway

We got an RFE on our I-864 stating we "must submit a complete federal tax return for the most recent tax year". We didn't include 2019 as my husband filed for an extension and has to file before October of this year. Is it sufficient to send the extension form? Or are they looking for something different? We are also talking to our accountant to see if we can file separately, and then send his 2019 tax returns to USCIS. I'm not sure how long that takes, or what option is best. Any suggestions?

We did check "filed for an extension" on the I-944 that we included in the same packet.

These are the things we included for this form:

1. Completed Form I-864, Affidavit of Support
2. Copy of Birth Certificate
3. Copy of US passport
4. IRS Tax Return Transcripts for the years 2018, 2017, 2016
5. 2018 W-2, Wage and Tax Supplement
6. Letter of Employment
7. Pay Stubs 6 months

Hi everyone,

I am a Norwegian man who has an American wife. We have been married for a year now.

I am currently with her in the US now, on my B1/B2 visa, which I entered on in March. When I arrived, the officer told me that I should have her petition for my Green card.

We were not planning that I would stay this long, but because of C-19 then I am still here. My I-94 expires September 20th.

I now have two optins:

1: Try to get an extension on the I-94 before it expires, and file AOS. Then I will have to file the I-131 parole document in order to travel again, since my job in Norway requires that I go for work before I will eventually get the Green card.

2: The other option is to leave, and go through the consular process, through the embassy in Stockholm.

I have concerns related to both options.

If I go with AOS, it seems that obtaining the I-131 parole document for travel is uncertain with C-19 and the process time. It says online that the office in Houston (where I am) has a process time of 4 weeks - 5 months. Not being able to leave for 5 months, would make an impact on my work back in Norway. I am also not confortable with not knowing whether my I-94 extension will be approved by last exit date. Since so many are applying now it might not be comfirmed prior to current expiration. I am also aware that filing for AOS might be frowned upon since I arrievd on B1/B2.

My conern about the consular option is that because of C-19, I am not really sure if they even process Green cards in Stockholm now. From reading other posts, it seems that they most likely will let me back in on B1/B2 although she has petitioned, if I document that I am still tied to Norway and will return on a return ticket. However, not knowing how long the Green card application will take is a concern. Not sure how many times they would let me enter.

Any thoughts would be highly appreciated?

Hi everyone,

I am filling out the I-130 so my wife can petition for me.

My current I-94 has 10 numbers and 1 letter. According to what I found online, this is a change from May 2019 when the record number became alphanumeric.

However, when I tried to insert it into my I-130, the .pdf file is telling me it only accepts numbers. This is concerning since we plan to petition electronically.

Has anyone had this issue before?

I appreciate any replies. Thank you
