Hi all, has anyone here ever being asked to have an appraisal done in their house as part of requirements for aos and greencard application? I know over hundreds of immigrants but have never heard of this except from the lawyer of a friend. According to the poverty guidelines you need to make about $34k for a household of 4. My friend has his own business and makes way more than that also have 100k on savings but aside from a bank statement and itr his lawyer advise him to get his house appraised to show equity of his house. Is this really necessary?
