    If your message says you MAY want to add a joint sponsor, then you can ignore the message, if your current income and/or liquid assets are clearly sufficient. This is a stock message sent to all who don't show enough income on the most recent tax return. The Consular Officer will make the decision. Do....YOU.....think your current income qualifies?

    Correct, but not if the intending immigrant is the spouse of the USC petitioner. This is a spouse case. I should have said spouse/beneficiary. Sorry.

    It will not be a mistake to bring "everything".

    Take everything you used for anything during the immigration process, including the originals of everything uploaded at the NVC stage. No need to "limit" what you take. Take it all.

    If your wife is not "in" the USA, passport photos of her are not needed but they are for you.

    The beneficiary does not ever provide an I-864a. Petitioner should become an A-Student of the I-864 and it's separate instructions. In this case there would be an I-864 from the USC spouse, and also one from the qualified "joint sponsor". and if married, an I-864a from the joint sponsor's spouse. One way around this is for the couple to qualify on liquid assets of more than three times the income requirement.

    Nothing like that is used for IR1 or CR1 visa appointments. NVC makes those and notifies you.

    Depends on if she HAS and 1099. Not all do.

    Great. I'm just making sure the OP understands this. Cheers.
  12. pushbrk
    Certainly.
  13. pushbrk
    Yes, just correct the form and send again.

    What you quoted above is from 2018 and was true then. Now, there must be exceptional circumstances, as these "field offices" don't exist for this purpose anymore. That changed in 2019 or 2020.

    Look at it this way. If you lost your job yesterday, your current income is zero, no matter what any tax return says. If you got a new JOB yesterday paying 50k, your current income is 50k. For an employed person, tax returns are about the past, not "current".

    First "Elderly" sponsors are not usually the best choice as joint sponsor. By "elderly" I do not just mean "retired". The reason is because they may not be around to fulfill the obligations of the contract contained in the I-864. Second, sponsors trying to qualify based on equity in real estate, face the complication of "liquidity" explained fully in the I-864 instructions. If possible, I would suggest finding an "employed" sponsor. If not possible, come back to the USA and become the employed sponsor before you submit the I-864. You do not need to wait until you have the CRBA to start your spouse's immigration process by filing the I-130.

    The "research" you need is in the I-864 instructions, which mention and define "liquid assets" and explain "why".

    I've seen this misinterpretation a few times. Your brain seems to be inserting a "the" before the bold part of your quote, that is not there. Not "the five years, but ANY 5 years with one of those five years being after turning 14. Just helped a good friend get a CRBA, who has also not lived in the USA for 7 years but lived in the USA 45 years, 31 of which were after he turned 14.

    Thank you for the specifics. If you want meaningful advice here, give meaningful, accurate information instead of being vague. In this case, your specific information actually contradicts what you actually wrote.

    This also is described in the I-864 instructions. Becoming an A-Student of those instructions is critical to your ultimate success. This should be clear to your husband, not that he already did not follow them. The form asks for three years of information from tax returns. This cannot be skipped, but only the latest "tax return transcript" needs to be actually provided. Do you or your husband actually understand what a tax return transcript is? My doubt is because most people don't have a reason to have one. Instead, they typically have a copy of their tax return. Tax Return Transcripts are ordered from the IRS. Just as easy to order 3 as to order 1.
