  1. Pay slips are the primary evidence of current income, for an employed person. Bank statements are only needed if you are declaring assets.
  2. I would use the blank text fields at the end of the form. That's what they are for.
  3. You need an updated I-864, but upload after you know the interview date.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Great, then she can document that she lives there, with record of employment and children's registration in School.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Tax transcripts (latest) is not about this year. It's last year. If one does not have a job now, it doesn't make a bit of difference how much they made last year. Going to work and providing a pay stub for a full pay period to go with an updated I-134 is the key. Interview should be postponed until that can be accomplished. If not, the visa will be denied and they'll have to start over.
  13. Yes, an I-134 from you and another from the co-sponsor. A pay stub is evidence of current income for an employed person. W2s are about te past.
  14. Good answer on the financial aspect already. However, the interview is NOT about how much you want to be in the USA for any other reason than your genuine relationship to your fiancé and your desire to marry and have a life together.
  15. Nothing like that appears on page 1 of the I-864 or page 1 of the instructions. You're seeing things that aren't there. Joint sponsors are the ones who need to provide evidence of US Citizenship or LPR status along with evidence the actually live in the USA currently. Petitioner's in this context do not.
  16. Possible? Yes. Nothing you can do about it except tell the truth now and going forward. Is the DS-260 submitted correctly with the truth?
  17. You came across no such statement because it is not there. Your citizenship is already established. You checked a box about your citizenship. If your address history is in the USA, you work in the USA, you don't need additional evidence you have US domicile either. Read carefully and interpret literally.
  18. If you are being allowed to continue the NVC stage buy submitting documents, then just continue. Expect your spouse to have a clear and understandable explanation for the delay. By reasonable and clear, I mean one that will not call the bona fides of your relationship in to shart question.
  19. English translations are not needed when documents are already in the local language.
  20. I'm not talking about intentionally misleading anybody. You were filling out a government form that asked for your middle name as part of your full name. You know you have a middle name, but left it blank I'm advising you to make the effort to be accurate and truthful going forward in this process. It was an oversight on your part, not to be the first time. That's why you have this issue now.
  21. This is a non-issue at this time. In future forms, tell the truth. You know you have a middle name and you know the proper spelling is the one on your birth certificate. Be truthful and accurate. Answer the actual questions asked. When asked for your name, give your full name. The question does not ask for the name on your passport or the name on your driver license. It asks for your NAME. You know your name.
  22. Correct. You can be an RN without a BSN, and a BSN doesn't in and of itself make you an RN. It's a great goal, and a legitimate reason to seek a student visa, if she hadn't also found a groom and didn't have immigrant intent.
  23. I don't see anything missing, but the list depends on the circumstances. Are they the correct passport style photos? Is it the PSA marriage Certificate? Is your divorce decree a scan of a Certified Copy of the decree? Specifics matter. When you choose your terms instead of using the specific standard ones, the door opens to potential mistakes.
  24. I said your attorney's advice is excellent. I guess I can add, that my advice would be the same.
