    That's current enough, but for pay stubs, you can scan and email. She can print locally. No need for employer letter if she has a current pay stub.

    You can simply enter "unknown outcome" in that space. But, if I understand you correctly, you left the USA and abandoned an adjustment of status process. If so, the outcome was, Adjustment of Status abandoned.

    Now that this is in the right forum, it will help. I would also ask why the petitioner is not here as part of the discussion. Case could be just being kicked upstairs for further review. A 28 year age difference is large but even a much bigger deal if she's the older one. What exactly does the notice say? You've given what you think is important or the part you understood. Members with more experience can better interpret the actual wording. Please provide it, and clarify which of you is older.

    There is not a "number". What is needed depends on your circumstances and what you actually have. For those who have not lived together yet, concentrate on direct evidence of being together in person. Boarding passes (not itineraries) and passport stamps. Hotel receipts are good too. Photos together are good but secondary. If you multiple select photos from a folder, select nine then print to wallet size on plain paper nine per page. Make it a variety. Three pages of photos like that seems ideal. You cannot provide something that doesn't exist. Don't try to contrive anything. It is what it is.

    Download the form. Then open with adobe reader, fill it out, print, then scan.

    Just focus on evidence of time spent together in person, like passport stamps and boarding passes, etc. Photos are good secondary evidence. Leave out letters/affidavits from friends. Makes you look desperate.

    Note that your wife can upload a photocopy of her complete passport as evidence she is a US Citizen. But, if she has a copy of a certified copy of her birth certificate, that is much easier.

    Correct. It is not clear whether you'll be looking at just going through the review queue for a few weeks or the full security check process. The passport is returned in case she needs it in the meantime.

    Go back to the clinic in person and ask.

    Your mother in law is not your wife, so no, YOU and NOBODY ELSE has filed a petition for THIS BENEFICIARY. It is critical you read carefully, interpret literally, and then answer accurately.

    You will need a new medical before the visa is issued, but wait until the visa is approved. If approved, it will be approved pending a new medical. If it has already been six months there is a reason for the delay. If you get a new one now, it might expire too.

    Click on the word Guides at the top of any page here. Select the one applicable to your case. Seems you want to adjust status from within the USA. Use that guide and do a concurrent filing. Start by downloading the instructions for the forms, and becoming an A-Student of them. It will be critical to your ultimate success. We'll help with the question that remain after you do your homework. OK?

    Details are important here. Strange they would say that wage and income transcripts, are wanted. Normally it is the Tax Return Transcripts. Why is the beneficiary here discussing this instead of the Petitioner whose documents are in question. Be specific. How many fees were paid? There are two fees to pay. Please be as specific as possible.

    Note, that when people use the word "domicile" in this context they mean "intent to establish or re-establish domicile". Intent is the keyword. There are certainly ways to evidence that intent without relocating ahead of your family. You have plenty of time to research that.

    Two previously sponsored immigrants. I already said that.
  16. pushbrk
    Correct. Parents are shown as immigrants previously sponsored who are still green card holders, not citizens. So household size will be four but the Consular Officer will correctly apply the 6 person household income requirement.

    It's ok to hand write. Perhaps it's an newbie at NVC making an error. It wouldn't be the first time.

    There are three kinds of copies of "divorce papers". A copy your lawyer gave you, a certified copy from the court or state records, and a photocopy of a certified copy. Any of the three can confuse certain individuals. I was adding to what you said, not correcting you. For my latest divorce, the court requested me to provide four originals. On the spot, the judge signed all four. The court kept one and the clerks certified the other three to give to me. It can be done any way the local court decides to do it. If a person doesn't know the difference, there's room for error.

    Not sure why anybody is worried about an old I-130 except to save the fee. Safe approach is a concurrent filing of I-130 and I-485, plus I-765 and I-131 if needed.

    Assuming this is a spouse visa case, your spouse should be counted only as the intending immigrant. Properly filled with an Adobe product, on a preceding page, you will have indicated you are sponsoring 1 immigrant. Since that is your spouse, the form will automatically populate a one on the later page for the number of immigrants. You do not also enter a one for spouse, as that will count her twice. Did you count her twice, or not at all? Probably one or the other.

    For most documents, divorce decrees included, what is required is a "certified copy". The original is never available. Petitions are filed with photocopies of certified copies, but at interview the actual certified copy can be requested. If "requested" it's "required". Using the correct terminology is important, even if sometimes officials fail to use it.
  22. pushbrk
    That is correct.

    Point of clarification is that nothing stops the applicant from leaving, but IF they leave before being granted Advance Parole, they will not get back in to complete the process. This knowledge usually prevents them from choosing to leave, but not always.

    Visiting and residing are not the same thing, but it sounds like she meets the "residing" definition. Not that it matters, but in the Philippines (back when Direct Consular Filing didn't require special circumstances) a person could "reside in" the Philippines on a tourist visa, because you can keep extending for up to three years at a time, with only a day of absence before starting the new three years. Lots of folks did it. A "temporary permanent resident" is a contradiction in terms but since it's a real thing, it's a real thing.

    If the Filipino spouse is a legal resident of Costa Rica, at the time of the interview, the interview will be there. Otherwise, Manila.
