    Incorrect. See above. This has already been clearly answered and corrected. To know this, one must read all the way through the instructions.
  2. pushbrk
    See answers in Red inserted above.

    You can state the amounts and use several bank statements to document. You can also show the intending immigrant (your) liquid assets on the form. Just enter the dollar equivalent and document with several statements.

    I think it is important to add that the initial post says she married AFTER being in the US for 90 days. As such, the petitioner must file an I-130. She cannot just adjust status based on the K1 visa, if the marriage occurred more than 90 days after her arrival.

    To qualify without a joint sponsor, he'll need well over three times the amount of liquid assets, as the income requirement. His current income is zero.
  6. pushbrk
    She is not required to fill out that section. If she has some liquid assets, she can state and document them. The same goes for you. The intending immigrant's liquid assets can also be used. However, if you still need a joint sponsor, I would just skip it.
  7. pushbrk
    NO, it is adjusting status from a K visa. No visa results from such a filing.

    It is not advisable to have the green card changed, so it doesn't match the passport. First step is get a new passport. Should have been done long ago, if she wants to use married name.

    How did you pay? If by check or money order, did you include two separate payments or combine them? They must be two separate payments. If no payment has been accepted, everything was rejected. The proper result would have been to get everything back including the payment. Your report lacks some details like mentioned above. Please clarify. Also, this is not a spouse visa case. Expect your topic to be moved to the correct forum.

    Later in the instructions, they mention that there's no need for beneficiary signature or photos, if they are not in the USA.
  11. pushbrk
    No need for passport photos from a spouse living outside the USA. No need for spouse to sign the I-130a unless in the USA either. That some have sent them, or signed anyway is not a problem. "What they did" and what is required are often not the same. Follow the actual official instructions.
  12. pushbrk
    Correct, but the petitioner will also use the new name on the affidavit of Support, and a copy of the new passport will be submitted to NVC as well. Just think of it as using the new name going forward. No need for any "notification". Note that since that was your intention, you could have filed using the married name. Either way works fine,

    Time for "her", the US Citizen to start doing HER own homework. He can't do anything himself. She must start the process, and best they marry first.

    Icing on the cake would be a trip back to your home town alone, to pre-enroll your children for school next year. Check with the school district first. The children need not go with you for this.
  15. pushbrk
    Completely unnecessary.
  16. pushbrk
    A moderator will be along soon, to move this to the correct forum. It's not a visa case.
  17. pushbrk
    OK. The OP does mention filing the I-130. Good. This is not a spouse visa case though. It is still adjusting status.
  18. pushbrk
    I don't see it mentioned above, but when you marry after the 90 days, you must also file an I-130.

    As long as her B1 visa is still valid, there should be no reason she can't leave with you and fly back for her interview, unless the overlap will be too long. It shouldn't be. She's not moving to the USA at that time though. It's you who is relocating. She's coming for a visit and going back for her immigrant visa interview.

    The interview is about your marital relationship and whether it is bona fide. (Genuine) Lots of information here about interviews. The simpler and least expensive option to deal with your issue of a three year ban, is to arrange for the interview to occur after that date. You do not have a timeline, so we have no clue where your case is in the pipeline. Has the petition been approved? If so, when? Are you Documentarily Qualified at NVC? If not, have you made the payments and submitted civil documents and affidavit of support?

    It's not "tricky". It is what it is. Current income is the king here. State each income by taking the gross pay, for a full pay period times the number of pay periods in a whole year, so times 12, 26, 24, or 52. The form will combine those incomes automatically once entered. You do not have to qualify with any past year's income. Document the current income with a copy of each latest pay stub. You will get a case note that everybody whose last tax return doesn't show qualifying income. Just ignore the notice, and expect success at interview.

    If you want to be absolutely sure, file by paper and mail instead. You can also refer to the final section of the form where you can type the address in full, in the appropriate format.

    Your plan of documenting your assets is perfectly fine. You do not need to involve and obligate a joint sponsor now, for the visa, or later when sponsoring the adjustment of status. Finding, using, and obligating a joint sponsor, when you are a financially independent adult, is far easier to type, than to do. You're fine. Carry on.
  24. pushbrk
    Just don't make the mistake of calling your short visits "periods of residency". They need not be mentioned at all.
  25. pushbrk
    Terminology is King here. The US Citizen "files a petition" to start the process. When that petition is approved, the foreign spouse is invited to apply for a visa. Start with the US Citizen becoming an A-Student of the I-130 instructions, a separate downloadable PDF file. You can file online or not, but study of the form PDF....AND.....the instruction PDF, will be critical to your ultimate success. Using the correct terminology is critical to everybody's success, and critical for "helpers" too.
