    It costs nothing to try except time and a little postage.

    Make sure not to leave any spaces blank. If there's a province, enter it. If not, enter Not Applicable

    Missed the they. My other question is still applicable.

    If they don't have W2 form, they should submit the Tax Return Transcript from their latest tax return. I would NOT submit assets instead of income, and in this case, there is no need to add assets anyway. Yes, you'll need to submit evidence of current income in the form of 1 recent pay stub for each. Note, they at least HAD W2 forms if they are employed. Maybe they've misplaced them.

    Your first post says you are seeking a CR1 visa. Where is the daughter now? Is she also in the USA? Are their circumstances such that they can remain in the USA at least six to nine months without leaving and without working?

    I-485 will never be filed in a spouse visa case, so no.

    You are sponsoring only one immigrant per affidavit, so don't check any boxes or add any names in part 3. I told you that using different words. If you follow my instructions, you'll get the same result. Now I've told you in the exact words you want to hear. This is covered very well in the step by step instructions.

    It's life. Sometimes you just gotta do what you just gotta do.

    It's a few days. Avoid checkpoints in the meantime. Putting a visa in a passport is not "instant". It's printed on a special secure machine and glued permantly to a page. Once the visa is approved, you'll be without your passport for a few days.

    The correct information is at the link provided in the above quoted post. Ignore all the "I think" statements, and just go with exactly what is explained in the link. If you go through the process again, don't worry about them "questioning your intent....". Be ready to explain though.
  11. pushbrk
    Yes.
  12. pushbrk
    Yes, as long as they otherwise qualify. Time to become an A-Student of the I-864 instructions and the form itself.
  13. pushbrk
    They won't ask for Police Reports that are not required.

    Information from three tax returns is entered. Only the latest is required to be submitted. Employer letter is OK, but include the latest pay stub too. You'll most likely notice it shows year to date income. No need for multiple pay stubs.

    We do not "use" addresses. We complete the form as instructed and answer the questions that are asked. If the last address outside the USA for more than a year, is an old address, so be it. If the current address is in the Roman Alphabet, only the name is provided in Native Alphabet.

    Do not list your stepdaughter as an immigrant on your wife's affidavit. Do not list your wife as an immigrant on your step daughter's affidavit. Each gets their own. Each affidavit lists only one immigrant.

    Keeping the passport is the norm. Keep your interview letter to support any needed claim of where your passport is for a few days.

    Correct procedure now is to provide two new I-864 forms that are properly completed. You failed to follow the instructions that indicates 1. One affidavit for each petitioned immigrant, and 2. Don't count anybody twice. They no you qualify, but you need to form is a contract. You only provided a contract for your wife. Do not list any other immigrants. Child is simply counted in your household size on the wife's form, and wife is counted as spouse on the child's form.

    Whether anybody finds it strange or not isn't relevant in this context. If a Consular Officer thinks the marriage was entered into to gain an immigration benefit, that's grounds to deny the visa. However, I'm not speculating on the reason for the denial. I DO expect the foreign spouse has at least a really good idea why the visa was denied. They were there. They know the questions and answers, and they know whether any information given was false. Consular Officers are trained to make these decisions, based on the totality of circumstances. Sometimes they know things the applicant doesn't know they know. Sometimes they get it wrong too. Seldom, is it an actual mystery to the applicant though.

    Yes, but the sooner the better.
  21. pushbrk
    Not surprised. I would too, if I knew the person had the same understanding of "last name" as I did. I don't assume that though. When I gather such information, I use the term, "Family Name" because EVERYBODY knows what that means. It's why it's on the forms first, with (Last name) in parenthesis, in case it helps one understand. Family name does NOT come LAST worldwide.

    There is no reason to wait. Reissue the passport with the name you want, whenever. As long as it is before the interview. Earlier the better though.
  23. pushbrk
    Good point. Most countries allow adding a citizenship without losing one. The issue with passports in two names, is solved by traveling both ways (for international travel) using the same name and passport.
  24. pushbrk
    "(Last Name)" in parenthesis. Family name is the main heading. Yes, Surname is used on passports, not US Immigration forms.

    There will be a "respond by" date on the notice. Usually, it's more than 30 days, but it IS a firm date, not a number of days.
