  1. What is your wife's citizenship? Where does she actually live now? Why are you asking about DNA testing? Login to the CEAC site you were emailed a link to by NVC. That's where you learn about next steps and what is required.
  2. ASAP is ok, but if she will be leaving shortly, I do advise to wait until she leaves, so you complete the petition indication she is not currently in the USA, instead of that she is. Either way, is certainly fine though, but be sure you indicate she will apply for the visa in London. Enter Not Applicable for where she will adjust status. This is the area where confusion creeps in.
  3. If you sent the declaration letters from any non-taxable pension, including the one from Social Security, you should have all the income evidence you need. If her total annual payments from the pensions and SS are well above the minimum, yes, I would expect no issues with the public charge judgement call, unless the retiree is of a very advanced age. "Elderly" sponsors are not always the best choice, but it will be the totality of circumstances that carry the day, or not.
  4. Not exactly. Specifically, it is a message sent when the income shown on the most recent tax return is insufficient. This is very common for a retired person, who may have substantial non-taxable income, or those using liquid assets to qualify. My advice is to simply ignore everything in the message, except that part that says the Consular Officer will decide. Just expect them to do their job and get on with life.
  5. Best to ignore those estimates and look at actual trends instead.
  6. Irrelevant to a visa case. When adjusting status based on marriage to a US Citizen, unauthorized work is "forgiven".
  7. Hard to say if this matters. It's a Tunisia specific issue. A similar situation in the Philippines used to be no problem, unless you wanted a new passport in the married name. Now, a marriage outside the Philippines must be registered through the Philippine Consulate abroad, or there is a definite problem. Unless there is a similar current issue for Tunisia, no worries. Maybe ask in the appropriate regional forum, or the situation may be mentioned in on the US Embassy for Tunisia, website.
  8. The idea of "extra civil documents" can simply be discarded. Those are the only two civil documents required for a child in this situation.
  9. Borrow if you must, but file the I-485 and all the supporting forms and documents. Do it right this time. Once filed, you might lose your ability to work, but you'll be ok to stay in the USA.
  10. If your current work is in the USA now, you simply show the pay stub or HR letter. If you are adjusting status, you're in the USA. The question about current income is in the present tense. So, the income you mention is already being earned in the USA. Right. Note that Adjusted Gross is not the correct number. Use Total Income. However those numbers are often the same.
  11. Apply for the passport the same as you would if your child was born in the USA. The visa and entry stamp are the evidence of Citizenship needed along with birth certificate and translation, if needed, would be the evidence of Citizenship.
  12. First thing that comes to mind is that this is the natural child of a US Citizen who could not pass citizenship at birth. In this case, once the child enters the USA using an IR2 visa, to reside with the US Citizen parent, they are immediately a US Citizen. That's a case that would exempt the IR2 child. Is that the situation?
  13. First, this is not a visa case. It's no case at all, because the US Citizen has taken no action. The illegal alien posting the question has no path to a green card, without a qualified sponsor. Unlawful work is forgiven in these cases, but claiming to be a US Citizen is not. Lawyer time, and be prepared for the best advice to be self deportation.
  14. There isn't. You can hand write the country code after printing.
  15. He only needs one valid passport for the interview, but he must have a valid passport at that time.
  16. Use the current passport number on the DS 260 and update at interview. You can also delay at NVC until he has the new passport.
  17. Yes, it should go to the address she gave at POE, but it would be prudent to put in a change of address with the Post Office too.
  18. She must legally be present in a country, in order to do Consular processing there. If awaiting a decision or asylum, that would work.
  19. They cannot immediately file an I-130 after a Utah Zoom marriage. They must have evidence they have been together in person, between the date of the ceremony and the date of filing the petition.
  20. Nobody said that about London. However, you still must properly state current income.
  21. Be aware that your emotional responses to the current political climate have no connection whatsoever to your spouse visa process.
  22. Then my advice is to get that tax return filed. Your current income is the "Total Income " number. Same for that section where you enter tax return information. Yes, this may delay your I-864, but the cause is your lack of preparation.
  23. My advice is file properly on paper and pay the correct fee. Why complicate matters further?
