US Immigration from Pakistan

After about 3 months of waiting for my documents to be submitted they finally were, and i was given an RFE.....

I added my brother as my household member to meet income requirements, but the issue came when I also added his wife. The reason I also added my brothers wife as my 2nd household member was because my brother filed his taxes jointly with her. Keep in mind she does not have any income, he just filed his taxes jointly. I saw in many forums that if your household member/joint sponsor has filed jointly sometime the embassy can give you issues for not submitting the spouses information.

The RFE basically states that my sister in law is not qualified to be a household member and that I should re add her as a Joint Sponsor. I now know that I was definitely supposed to add my brother as the Joint Sponsor and his wife as HIS household member, but its now too late for that as NVC already accepted all his documents as my household member.

My Question now is, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

1. Would it be an issue to have my Sister in law as my joint sponsor, and my brother who technically is the one making the income stay as my household member? This is what nvc is basically saying to do, but I feel like thats not right to have her added as my joint sponsor with barely any income?

2. Should I take the risk and just not include my brothers wife. Technically I dont need any other income to meet the requirments since my brother and me should be enough. But I am worried that the embassy might come back and potentially cause issues down the line.

3. I also heard of people submitting a letter requesting nvc to remove someone so they can re add them but I also heard that sometimes this makes the case go into AP and get lost for while. Maybe I can potentially remove my brother as a household member and re add him as my joint sponsor??

4. Any other thoughts or ideas of how I should approach this would be greatly appreciated!

CR1 US CITIZEN ISLAMABAD EMBASSY

PLEASE HELP, ANYONE WITH KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROCESS

Im beyond confused right now. After around 3 months of waiting for my documents to be reviewed and approved at NVC, they were finally reviewed.... but I was given an RFE

The summary of the issue is, I added my brother as a household member to combine his income with mine to meet the requirements. My brother is married and filed taxes jointly with his spouse the past 2 years. His spouse has little to no income as she is a stay at home wife, but JUST TO BE SAFE i added her as a household member as well because I did not want to have any issues at the time of an interview in the future. I did not want the embassy to be able to say where is your brothers spouses info since her name is also on his tax transcripts.

The RFE was given because they said that my brothers wife does not qualify as a household member and to add her as a joint sponsor.

My question is a few things:

1. All my other documents were accepted and submitted, so do I just leave my brother as the household member and add his wife as a joint sponsor even though she technically doesnt have much income? Does it make sense for her to be the Joint sponsor and my brother to be the household member even thought he is the one with the income?

(I feel like i should have added my brother as the joint sponsor and his wife as the household member but its too late for that)

2. Should I just not include my brothers wife in this since I dont need her income to meet requirements? The only reason i added her was because my brother has filed jointly with her so I did not want any issues in the future from the embassy in case they as us for her info since her name is also on his transcripts. Is it necessary or not necessary to have her added as well?

3. Or is there any other option I have that anyone would recommend that makes sense?

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hello

My brother's fiance's K1-Visa Interview date has been confirmed. She had to select it on her own and had to finish the DS-160 form. Now she is doing her medical or setting up appointment for that and then the interview. My question is the following: the I-134 form has to be done by my brother, should he sign and send a copy or should he mail the original form? Will copy be okay? What about the tax returns, W2 and his paystub? Should he send those as copies too? For the paystubs, how recent should they be? last 3 months is good? or one month is okay? She is in Pakistan.

Also does she need a police certificate for Pakistan? I know she doesn't need one if it was a CR-1 visa but not sure about the K1

Thanks in advance.
