    The poverty guideline that applies is the one current on the date of the interview.
  2. pushbrk
    Yes, you can change the passport to match the I-130, or just use the passport name from NVC stage forward. Your choice.
  3. pushbrk
    The paper form has extra pages for that. The online form should also be able to handle extra information at the end.
  4. pushbrk
    No interview will be scheduled until after NVC has an approvable affidavit of support. If your husband is an employee, and his employer will transfer him to work in the USA, then a letter offering that job with the same company in the USA, will suffice. If he is self employed, and the income will continue from the same source, that's fine too. If neither, then the best solution without a joint sponsor, is for him to find a job in the USA as soon as possible, and go back to work there. Separation is far more common in this process, than not.

    What they need from you is evidence you intend to re-establish US domicile, not just that you lived there most of your life and still have driver license, bank accounts etc. For example, I currently have all those things AND have no intention to re-establish US Domicile. That your parents are willing to house you, says something about their willingness and nothing at all about your intentions. A lease agreement with family looks contrived. How about getting some estimates on actual relocation with a relocation company, then choose one and make a deposit with an open ended date. Are either of you looking for work in the USA?

    If you were authorized to live in a place, not just visitors, yes. Note that any country the non US Citizen lived for more than six months will require a police clearance.

    The OP specifically asked if "visiting them" counts. It is not "living with". It counts as relationship evidence, not living together.

    I just want to add that the idea of your wife's continued employment in China as a CCP member, is not going to work. In order to get a spouse visa, she'll need to resign from the party anyway. If that means losing her job too, then it comes with the territory. This is an issue to look into carefully as part of your research. It's not something I'm up to date on. Maybe you can get answers in the China regional forum. I'm suspecting (not recommending) the attorney is thinking her leaving her job and the party, and seeking to adjust status through USCIS from within the USA, instead of a visa through Guangzhou Consulate, will solve this problem. Again, suspecting, not agreeing or recommending.

    Visitors in another country are not living together, as they are not authorized to "reside". Not having lived together (the correct answer) is not a problem. You will be providing evidence of time spent together in person in addition to the form.

    Please clarify. No such thing as an NVC interview. Did she have a spouse visa interview in Cairo 7 months ago?
  11. pushbrk
    Probably no big deal then.
  12. pushbrk
    If the attorney actually wrote "whoch" and "USICE" instead of "which" and "USCIS" then I withdraw my recommendation to listen to them. If those are your errors, carry on.
  13. pushbrk
    Yes, to bold above.
  14. pushbrk
    Yes, but do read the USCIS instructions on the translator's certification as part of the translation. No apostille or notarization, with the exception Chinese documents which must be translated by the Chinese Government's Notarial Office.
  15. pushbrk
    The State Department is not involved in adjusting status cases. That's all USCIS. Based on Visa Journey terms of service, my only advice is that you hired an attorney for a reason.
  16. pushbrk
    Note that you can pay for expedited service from PSA.

    Any past medical records would only be needed if there's some kind of problem the panel physician needs explained. Surely, your vaccination other than COVID 19 related would have been before you were 21. You WILL need the verification of your COVID 19 vaccination though.
  18. pushbrk
    All good except the bold above. China is an exception to all the USCIS translation guidance. All Chinese documents must be translated at all levels, an must be from the government Notarial Office.
  19. pushbrk
    The Police report for China must be from the Gong Zheng Chu, which is a government Notarial Office. This is true no matter where you interview. An earlier statement about translation not being needed if interviewing in China, is incorrect, even though not applicable to you. Expect your case to be initially assigned to Guangzhou, not matter what you requested, but once at National Visa Center you can have it transferred to London. Instructions here. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/China.html

    Don't expect a letter of explanation. It is standard practice. The explanation is the benefit was received by virtue of an approved I-130. This also is information just as available as the information about filing the I-129F for a spouse to begin with.
  21. pushbrk
    If the marriage was solemnized in the Philippines, you will need the PSA Marriage Certificate to file with the I-130. The first one you get would be from the local Civil Registry. Anything before that is just a souvenir.
  22. pushbrk
    Not an issue, particularly because the IRS is NOT saying you didn't file. They said they DO have a return and want you to verify your identity. What you sent is all the Consular Officer needs anyway.
  23. pushbrk
    If you are only marginally, over the minimum liquid asset threshold, I would not be comfortable. Consular Officers know you'll face significant relocation costs. But the real decision will be made at the interview. Circumstances may be improved by then if you return to US Employment.
  24. pushbrk
    By "accepted" do you mean by NVC? Are you now DQ? (Documentarily Qualified)
  25. pushbrk
    No. If your "residence" while NOT traveling is your parent's address, then that is your address for the I-130.
