It will be fine the way it is. -
Start by clicking on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here. This is a "do it yourself" site. We are here to help with what you still don't understand AFTER you do your homework. Relying on questions without doing the homework is very dangerous. You don't know WHAT you don't know until you do the homework, so you won't know what to ask.
-
The correct procedure is what I quoted. You do not predict the self employed portion of your income. You do as I described. If you've already submitted your affidavit, I wouldn't worry about it.
-
In this forum, we only have the written word for communication. You did not "email" your I-130. You filed it online. Don't expect any update after the receipt notice, for about year. Your petition is just sitting in a queue. Eventually, a human will "adjudicate" your I-130 for no more than 30 minutes. You will then either get a request for initial evidence (if they think something is missing or they need more) or an approval or denial notice. It's a black hole. No is the time to do your homework on the NVC stage. Specifically, become an A-Student of the I-864 and it's separate but excellent instructions.

You will be entering four separate annual income numbers. In the tax section, enter the number called "total income" on your federal tax return for each of the last three years. For the current income, it's the salary, plus the amount of business income carried to the first page of the 1040 from the schedule C of your latest federal tax return.
-
Great idea. While we can understand the difficulties you describe, I assure you that no Consular Officer cares about your difficulty with seeing each other. Take a tranq. LOL
-
No need for parents to complete any forms, unless their income is being combined with the joint sponsor's.
-
Now that it's clear, put the parents as previously sponsored immigrants. Only indicate one step child per affidavit. Do not list other immigrants being sponsored, as they will have their own affidavits. Trust the Consular Officer to do the simple arithmetic and apply the six person income requirement.
-
Same answer. No intending immigrant needs to submit a police clearance/report from the USA.
-
Correct, but parents claimed are "other" not children. Officer will consider the income requirement for a household of five, however.
-
No need for police certificate from the USA. That background check is done as part of the process.
-
And do be aware there is a new version of the form. Has nothing to do with this apparent mistake by the CO, but do use the current form.
-
The best relationship evidence is the evidence of time spent together in person. Even making sacrifices to spend time together in person, is what people in real relationships do. "I'll go if I really have to...." is not the kind of thinking that brings success in this kind of process.
-
No need to sign. Tax returns can just be emailed. If you can, it's better to download the Tax Return Transcript instead.
-
No such thing as a certified copy of a Naturalization Certificate. Scan and email it.
-
If you read carefully, you'll see "original" refers to the applicant's civil documents, not "everything". 1. No do not send the original. Scan and print 2. Only if things have changed and you need to update. Otherwise, a copy of new tax return if applicable (Not really applicable until April 15 but ok if you already filed it) and an updated pay stub. 3. If you are shown as living in the USA, yes, but really not needed.
-
It won't hurt
-
No. Your spouse should bring originals of their own civil documents.
-
No problem at all, but all you really need before April 15, is to email a complete copy of the new tax return or tax return transcript and a current pay stub.
-
Unless there is something to update on your affidavit of support, no need. Yours has already been "accepted". The form did not expire. What expired is an internal comment period.
-
Typically, marriage certificates for previous marriages are only required if they are needed to document name changes. Men don't usually change their names when they marry, but if you did, send the marriage certificates. Even for those who had name changes, the divorce decrees often adequately address name changes.
-
Yes
-
No negative impact. Consular officers see this all the time.
-
If there's nothing to update, your affidavit was already "accepted" by Dept. of State, not USCIS months ago. No need for a new form.

What if your embassy closes?
