    "As a contractor" indicates self employment, not continued employment. For a self employed person, current income comes from the total income line of a US Federal tax return. If he's still in the UK working, that number probably didn't change. Please clarify.

    I would not do that. It might work, but it might get it sent back. I said it the way I meant it, the first time, but I guess it wasn't clear. Return the first money order and buy one for the right price. You will only pay the cashier's check issuer the difference. The priority is not your convenience. The priority is to make it difficult for them to cause you a problem.

    Mark the first question, then very carefully review every little bit of the form, before resubmitting. That they mentioned you not answering the first critical question, does not mean they even looked further at your submission. Review the whole package. Check the instructions for the I-130 to be certain you submitted all the "required" supporting documentation. Since you are the purchaser of the financial instrument you used for your first payment, the issuer should only charge you the difference for a new one for the increased fee.

    Earlier you said I-130a. Please clarify.

    How much IS the current new immigrant fee anyway. I'm not finding it on the list. Am I blind?
  6. pushbrk
    Correct but you would also have put an address in the USA where you will be living, when you completed the DS 260. To be double sure, make ask and inform upon entry.

    Or, if you prefer, you can simply get a new passport in the married name, before the interview.

    To clarify, the "fee" is a filing fee. You are filing two petitions, so two filing fees. All but the smallest of the four fees you will pay the US government will be per person. The filing fee increased April 1st.

    Yes, you can file while she is in the USA. As stated above, clearly indicate she will apply for a visa in Montreal. Indicate she is NOT going adjust status at any location. You will also be entering information about her current entry and status, that would not be applicable if she already left. Pay very close attention to each question on each form.

    Do you see your other supporting documents?
  11. pushbrk
    Exactly

    Just a reminder to any reader. There's a difference between reminders, suggestions, requests and requirements. All these words exist for a reason. The airline is reminding the traveler under the assumption they will be "visiting" the USA. Their reminder is only applicable to foreigners flying to visit the USA, not "immigrants" with immigrant visas.

    Different context. Delay at NVC is not limited to one year. The above is not applicable to the current discussion. NVC is neither an embassy or a Consulate. If you'll provide the actual link, we can point out the actual context for you, but it is not THIS context.

    Direct answer to your question is no, but yes, you will provide current information when completing your affidavit of support. There's even a spot to put a second employer, if applicable.
  15. pushbrk
    What exactly are you seeing that makes you think it was removed?
  16. pushbrk
    Just ignore.

    You don't need a letter at all. Some use a cover letter to list what's in the package, but not to "explain" anything. You CAN, but usually not necessary. No need for a cover letter at all if you file online.

    Also, I-130 approvals do not "expire"....
  19. pushbrk
    Actually no. Nothing you can do will "force" anything. Filing the I-129F for spouse won't hurt, and might prompt another quick look at the I-130 before closing the I-129F. Whatever scrutiny is causing the delay, will continue until it is satisfied. Sometimes this scrutiny involves boots on the ground in Tunisia. Can be a long wait.

    If told about receiving passports, that's a visa interview. Visa bulletin is irrelevant. When the bulletin IS relevant, the case sits at NVC. Not sure why you would even entertain the thought this was something other than CR1 or IR1 considering the forum and content of the first post.

    Yes, who actually delivers "certified mail" to USCIS is always the USPS and can only be them. But, who carries it to USPS can vary a lot. Requiring a signature when using a courier, is an option but does delay by a day or so. "Registered Mail" is the real slowdown.

    "I've heard" is a well known source of misinformation. The instructions for the I-130 will tell you what you need. Download and become an A-student of that document. Click on the word "Guides" at the top of any page here. No letter of intent in a spouse case, when filing an I-130. In a year or so, you'll need to provide evidence of your intent to re-establish domicile in the USA.

    I'm aware some people prefer belt AND suspenders. My advice is not based on that. The choice is with the OP.
  24. pushbrk
    Correct.
  25. pushbrk
    I will assure the OP, that courier tracking is enough. Certified mail can delay delivery.
