    Expedite- veteran

    in Military Immigration-Related Discussion

    Posted · Edited by lierre

    Okay, I believe I misread OP's post and assumed he was still in the military.

     

    I think the reason you can use is severe financial loss. However, each expedite request will be treated for its own reason and it's on you to provide proof there is such a reason (severe financial loss).

     

    For us, we just asked my spouse's commander to write a memo. It was 2 months out til his DEROS and nothing was happening with our application. The military will have to move me separately (costing money) & it can potentially affect his ability to deploy.

     

    I'm not sure what exactly you will need to prove financial loss

     

     

     

    No Sufficient US Domicile Proof

    How can the petitioner establish a domicile?

     

    If the sponsor has not maintained a domicile in the U.S., the sponsor must establish their domicile in the U.S. before their family member can be issued an Immigrant Visa.

     

    To do this, the sponsor must prove that they have taken the necessary steps to make the U.S. his or her immediate and principal place of residence. Such steps might include finding U.S. employment, locating a place to live, registering children in U.S. schools, voting in U.S. elections, having U.S. bank accounts, or filing U.S. taxes.

     

    It is not necessary for the sponsor to go to the U.S. before the sponsored family members to re-establish residence and domicile provided that the sponsor has taken the type of concrete steps outlined above.

    more evidence of petitioner’s permanent residence in the United States.  Please see the ‘Domicile instruction sheet’

     

    You have your answer right there.

     

    This is another good resource: Link: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/collect-and-submit-forms-and-documents-to-the-nvc/establish-financial-support/i-864-affidavit-faqs.html

     

    Quote

    A petitioner who is unable to demonstrate that he or she is domiciled in the United States who wishes to qualify as a sponsor must demonstrate that:

    • He or she has either already taken up physical residence in the United States; or
    • He or she has taken concrete steps to establish a domicile in the United States and will do so concurrently with the applicant no later than the date of the intending immigrant’s admission.

    The sponsor does not have to precede the applicant to the United States but, if he or she does not do so, he or she must arrive in the United States concurrently with the applicant.  Evidence that the sponsor has established a domicile in the United States and is either physically residing there or intends to do so before or concurrently with the applicant may include the following:

    • Opening a bank account
    • Transferring funds to the United States
    • Making investments in the United States
    • Seeking employment in the United States
    • Secure a residence in the United States
    • Register children in U.S. schools
    • Applying for a Social Security number
    • Voting in local, State, or Federal elections

    Good replies from the others! Also remember to save items over the next 2 years to help establish your relationship when its time to file ROC. Items like pictures, vacations, joint accounts, joint ownership of items.... Ect. Ect... Better to save it throughout that 2 year period than try searching for it at the last minute when its time to file ROC

     

    Completely agree with this.

     

    Joint bank account statement -- i only printed the month before I filed. Everything else was pretty much prepped beforehand.

    A name change or marriage does not mandate a change to your signature.  It can if the individual so chooses.  Her legal signature can be whatever she has adopted as her signature.   It can be a stylized version of her name, a scribble, a symbol or anything she wants.  

     

    THIS. I totally agree.

     

    I added my spouse's name to my last name. It's not hyphenated. Officer said it doesn't really matter if it's hyphenated or not.

     

    I sign with the signature I've had since I was in my teens.
