US Immigration from Thailand

uscis put my wife's interview off for one year due to covid. I am presently in Thailand she is in Texas. uscis now wants to do this interview on Feb. 1st. I am in a Thailand district that is in lockdown. Special permission is required to leave this county. Coming back i am subject to 2 weeks quarantine i have to pay for. I understand I'm not even allowed into the interview. Why do I need to be there or can i get permission not to be there somehow? I'm terrified to go to Texas. Covid central!! There have been less than 8000 covid cases here in Thailand TOTAL. There's more than that per day in Texas. What can I do to get out of this interview as it may literally kill me.

Hey everyone,

after NOA2 the guide says to mail a packet to your fianc e. What company is the best or easiest to use to mail the documents ?

My wife just had her Biometrics appointment and we are excited to be moving along the process.

My question is about income qualifications.

I am an LLC small business owner and use schedule C on my returns.

In 2019 my 1099 gross income was $164,000, and 0 taxable income.

In 2020 my 1099 gross is $265,000, but with my various deductions and credits my taxable income will probably be closer to $10,000.

I know the income requirements are 125% of the federal poverty guidelines, or $21,550 for a household of 2.

Do I need to show a taxable income above that, even though my 1099 shows a gross more than 10x that amount?

Thanks for all your input on this, happy new year!

My wife is IR! with her interview date next month 25Jan. She went to do her medical and was told she needed a new passport before they would complete. I do remember reading about this and yes it is needed even for medical.(6mo. before expire). With all this extra stuff going on I kind of forgot about the passport expire issue. So.. my question, do I submit new passport to NVC? We have been DQ'd and have left NVC and just waiting for interview. Or, Do we just bring the new passport along to the interview? Case complete and DQ'd at NVC, will they accept and forward new information ie: a new passport?

Hi everyone, I've been searching online for a tax advisor that specializes in taxes for digital nomads and foreign spouses.

Trying to figure out if we should file jointly and separately this year and also if there are any financial moves I should make before the end of year that would be wise for me to do.

Thanks!
