How old was the USC when they were adopted ? The USC had to be a child

Less than a year old. Thanks.

A US citizen can petition an adoptive parent if the legal adoption was completed before the child's 16th birthday and there is proof that the adoptive parent lived with the adopted child.

Thanks!

My question is that:

If an US citizen was adopted in a foreign country before coming to the US and became a citizen. After becoming an US citizen, can he/she apply for a visa for the parents who adopted him/her? If yes, is it also through I-130 for IR-5 visa?

Thanks in advance!

the letter you first described should be sufficient with the last 3 paystubs, for current annual income.

IMO, though, you'll get dinged for prior years income, and should seek a co-sponser or joint-sponser.

Due to being a college student, my previous years' income is below 100% poverty line.

I do have well over 400% poverty line income now. It is just so hard to get a co-sponsor cause of the possible responsibilities.

I'll have pay stubs printed out to prove my current income and have an employment/income verification printed on company site and list my investments on I-134.

We can explain that to the interviewer and hopefully they'll understand.

guangzhou wants to see:

--prior years income from tax returns and

--current annual income (computed, real, projection or something else)

so bear that in mind as your compiling yer I-134 stuff.

My previous years income tax returns are very low due to being a student and only working part time. However, I do have a decent income now.

Do you have to have a signed letter from employer to verify current income? Is paychecks alone enough?

You are not required to provide proof of employment in connection with the I-134, if that is what you are talking about. All you need do is submit your tax returns (transcripts are preferred by the USCIS) along with the form. If you have a statement supporting your claim to employment and condition it always helps.

Good luck.

I have just recently graduate from college and started working. So my tax returns from previous years does not have a sufficient amount of income to sponsor.

Is it required to have a letter from your supervisor verifying your employment/income and have his signature on it?

If my company has a site that you can print off verification of employment and income. It states my date of employment, address, SSN, current base salary, year to date earning, and saying that "anticipate continued employment as long as services are satisfactory and work is available".

I don't know if anyone has turn in one of these and worked or has everyone just been getting their supervisor/manager to write the letter?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have gathered some evidence, such as chat logs (which are in Russian, since both of us speak Russian and its our native language) and engagement ring receipt (which was purchased in Russia, and therefore the receipt is in russian, as well as currency) Do I need to translate our chat logs/engagement ring receipt? Also, I heard some people write place and date on the back of the photographs as part of the evidence, is that necessary or optional?

Thank you so much in advance!

Dmitriy

I would go ahead and write the names, date, and place on the back of the photos. I did at least - just to be on the safe side.

However, I dont know about the translating part... I did not send in any chat logs even though we had some, I just used call history.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Everyone! Hopefully, it moves faster now

My e-mail was provided on the G-1145 when I submitted my I-129F petition.

Thanks,

Thank you very much!

congratz

not sure about now, but back in 2012, packet 4 for us was emailed.

How was your email or your fiance's email provided for them to email you?

It's mailed out.

Thanks! Is packet 4 also mailed out? so... no emails?

Hey, what is the format the packet 3 is sent from Guangzhou now? I've heard many people talking about getting it through email, but I don't think we had to provide any email addresses during the I-129F application process? or is it still mailed?

Woot! It's finally here.

Feb NOA1.

Transferred to Texas from Vermont June 21.

approved 7/08/2013.

Darnell, Thank You.

Yes, the guangzhou part is what we're worrying about. Since the birth cert don't have her parents' names on it, she suppose to get an adoption certificate according to the letters from guangzhou that some people posted. However, her parents already have their own biological kids before 'adopting' her, so they can't get an adoption certificate due to the adoption laws in China.

She's got a certificate from local villagers' committee that certifies she was a founding and been living with her current parents since childhood and they've supported all of her cost of study and living.

I just hope that's enough and works ... sigh...

My fiancee was "adopted" and so did not have an original birth certificate. When she went to the local authority in China to apply for one, they said that they can do it, but it will not have her parents' names on it (her parents will be listed as unknown on the certificate). However, I've already sent my application in with her current parents' names on the forms.

She's only able to get a birth certificate showing her birth date and place, but not parents' names on it. However, we can also get a certificate from the local authority to show that she's been living with her current parents and has been since childhood.

Anyone know anything about this situation and what should I do?

I'm just waiting for my NOA2 right now, but I'm worrying that it's going to mess the whole process up when it comes down to the interview or later steps...

Any help or recommendation is much appreciated! Thanks!

What's the service center address that needs to be on the fiance letter of intent?

Is putting the address of location that we sent the letter to okay?

like...

USCIS

Attn: I-129F

2501 South State Highway 121 Business

Suite 400

Lewisville, TX 75067

It seems like Vermont would be the service center for me, but I dont know which address I should put on that letter of intent.

Thanks.
