Just provide the CRBA and evidence you lived together for two years. You won't need anything else.

No, they would not have DQ'd you if they needed anything else. If you're confident your current income is sufficient, simply ignore the case note. It...IS...because of the tax return. Operative word is "may".

I'll just add that there is no actual need for a letter from the IRS. When the time comes, she can just check a box that says she hasn't filed because her income has been below the filing threshold. Since the I-130 will show no employment history, this will come as no surprise, causing no confusion or questions at NVC or the Consulate. Yes, really. Yes, I'm sure.

It's very difficult to give proper guidance without sufficient information. If your income can be documented to continue when you are in the USA, then THAT income should be shown, and documentation provided showing it WILL continue. Usually, this is an offer letter or transfer letter from your current employer. You said you included "our foreign income". Only show the income that will continue. Who is who in the conversation? Whose income will continue, the petitioner, or the beneficiary. It seems "YOU" are the beneficiary. Please clarify.

Did I miss something. Why have some concluded the beneficiary is female?

That's fine but it is also true that if the applicant does not attend the interview and does not pursue the visa any further, the case will be returned to USCIS and USCIS will just let the petition approval expire. More concerning to me is that you do not get an interview appointment without completing and submitting a DS 160. That's something the foreign spouse in this case (fiance(e) in the previous case) has actually done. So, it's not just a petition approval. They completed a visa application based on that approved petition, and paid an application fee. I wonder if the current spouse/petitioner knows that?

But there is a result. The petition has been approved, but no visa issued due to relationship ending. The question is about a petition not a visa. Edit to add. See my later post. This is more than just an approved petition. The visa application has also been submitted and application fee paid.

You can contact them through their website, or do nothing. More importantly, how did you deal with the question on the I-130 that asks if anybody has ever filed a petition for her before, and what was the result?

It's very likely you received vaccinations as an infant, and your parents just didn't mention it. It's so routine, it's understandable. They probably indicated in on your initial school enrollment.

It appears this message is prompted by you filing an incorrectly completed I-864. Complete and upload a new one that shows zero in all tax and current income fields. I expect that is also what you tax return states on the "total income" line. You are correct that no I-864a is needed from a beneficiary spouse of US Citizen, by you have confused them by your entering income improperly. You can only enter income you can use to qualify. Read that current income question carefully. 1. above seems to come from an different issue. Do you have children coming to the USA that are already citizens? If so, did you list them as immigrating, instead of just dependents? If so, that's incorrect. If not, just ignore that part. They are warning you, just in case. If you do have children coming with your spouse that are NOT US Citizens, but step children, they DO need their own petition. Please clarify.

Use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to fill the form. You'll have problems with third party applications. If you read the question about your current income carefully, you'll see the phrase, "that you are using to....." So, since you can't use it, the number is zero. For the tax section, you enter the "total income" number, which may well also be zero. You then submit the last complete return copy or a tax return transcript. Since you are using a "joint sponsor" an I-864 for the one with the greater income and I-864a from their spouse. You do this whether they have income or not, and whether their income is needed or not. Read all questions carefully, interpret literally, and answer accurately. Study those I-864 instructions too.

Nothing at all is completed on this page. Check Employed as and state in the first blank, Disabled Veteran. Employer Name is US Veterans Administration. You mention later a K1 visa. This form is not used for a K-1 Visa. If you are already in the USA, using a K1 visa, are now married and adjusting status, you have posted in the wrong forum. You are adjusting status, not seeking a spouse visa. Please clarify. Also add the exact wording of the RFE.

The question was about what is needed. NVC doesn't decide not to accept something, just because it isn't needed. Bank statements are not needed unless as supporting documentation for declared assets.

Pay slips are the primary evidence of current income, for an employed person. Bank statements are only needed if you are declaring assets.

I would use the blank text fields at the end of the form. That's what they are for.

You need an updated I-864, but upload after you know the interview date.

I'm sure they will want to know where you live. Since you live and work in the USA, I see no "issue" of concern. Clearly, you were then and are now domiciled in the USA. You'll probably want to update your I-864.

The rules say nothing like that. Equity in Real Estate that is not your primary residence can be counted and documented. Do not count your primary residence. You can show the equity as an asset but the Consular Officer won't consider it "liquid" meaning not available to support your family. They WILL consider the equity in the rental properties. You'll need to document their value (A tax assessment will work if you don't have actual appraisals.) and you'll need to document there is no mortgage.

Great, then she can document that she lives there, with record of employment and children's registration in School.

What is needed is for the applicant to live in the country they wish to transfer the case to. If the applicant lives there, they need some document that confirms that. If they don't live there, then it is not possible. No other "reasons" are relevant. So, does the applicant live in Sierra Leone or not? It really is that simple.

She would need something to show she actually lives in Sierra Leone. She must be a resident or Citizen to interview there. No Consulate shopping allowed.

Showing evidence the US Citizen is sending money to the foreign spouse, is not evidence of comingling of finances. It's just you sending money to your foreign spouse. It can hurt, and doesn't help.

I'm sure it does cause confusion.

Correct, but if the marriage took place in the Philippines or was later registered there, the certificate will document this marriage as the only marriage, not certify the applicant has NO marriage. Sometimes referred to as a CEMAR, not a CENOMAR.

Incorrect. Transcripts are the past. You must also sign the affidavit stating your current income. The latest tax return or return transcript only document current income for the self employed, not the employed or unemployed.
