My husband came to the U.S on K1 visa July 2021, we got married before the 90 days deadline. We filled AOS October 2021 and received RFE on I-864 Affidavit of Support. We submitted our response Nov 2021, and since then no update. My husband wants to travel to his home country to go see his aged mother who is sick, but he has no GC to travel. We didn't apply for AP because we didn't think the GC will delay to this extent. I have tried calling USCIS but the automated system won't let me speak with a live agent. I have also contacted my Congressman office, they have sent a message to USCIS twice still no movement.  We are not sure what else to do to get the GC approved so my husband can go see his sick mother. Does anyone have a trick to get live agent on phone? Also, any suggestions on what we need to do about our case? Thank you in advance for your response.

We are also experiencing this same situation. We received the I864 Affidavit of Support RFE and sent our response which they said they received, it’s been over 2 months and we haven’t heard anything yet. We are hoping to hear something soon.

Post a screenshot of your household size calculation page. It's likely filled it out wrong.

Also how did you prove your income?

What documents did you provide?

They likely aren't the correct ones or are incomplete documents.

I sent letter of employment verification, 6 months paystubs, 3 years tax transcripts, and bank statement. My household size I entered 2 for that. Please let me know what I did wrong.

I received a RFE for the I865 Affidavit of Support, although they said I need to properly document my household size but they also said in the letter that I don't meet the income requirements of 125% poverty level and that I need a joint sponsor. I am a little confused about that. I am a nurse and earn $67,000 per year and it's just me and my husband in our household, why does that not meet the income? My question does my income meet the 125% poverty level requirements? And should I just resubmit the form with the evidences requested or find a joint sponsor? Please advise.

Sorry I meant the I864 Affidavit of Support not I865. I have attached a copy of the letter below. I don't have the exact form I 864 I filled but I entered 1 for questions 3 and 2 for household size. Like I said my income is $67,000 and it's just me and my husband in our house hold. Please advise me on what I am doing wrong.

But looking at other's comments, I think I probably messed up on the household count. My question is do I meet the income requirements base on my income? And should I just resubmit the form with the evidence or find a joint sponsor?

We also received the same REF in Feb. 2020 because my initial package did not have a ton of information, just pictures and boarding pass and letter of intent. My response to the REF was:

1 Resubmit copies of intent to marry

2. Chat and call logs (picked a few - initial chat, proposal chat and recent phone log)

3. 6 months Pay stub and last 3 years tax transcripts 

4. Letters from his sister and brother and my mom acknowledging our relationship/engagement 

5. Chat from my dad letting him know our plans to get married 

6. Letter from my church that we will plan to get married at the church

7. Detailed letter of how we first met and started dating

8. Pictures of recent visit and engagement and boarding pass

After submitting all that, I realized I did not do enough at beginning. However, we got approved 2 weeks after they received the REF response. Now we are stuck at NVC stage for 2 months now 😔😔, we are praying embassy opens soon🙏.

I hope this information helps you and maybe someone else out there. Good luck.

We got APPROVED today. I’m glad to be here finally!!! I am going to read the PDF on page 1. In the meantime, @Greenbaum please do you have P3 for Frankfurt Germany? Thank you in advance 

I just got an update that they are requesting for additional evidence from us. I am not sure what it’s for. I guess I will have to wait for the mail to see. Does anyone have any idea how to handle this request?

117 days since received (11/1/19)

111 days since NOA 1 (11/7/19)

NOA 2 is still pending

I'm praying this week will be the week of approval by God's grace.🙏

Approved!! NOA1 10/30 approved today.

Congratulations 🎉🎉 You're on to the next step

Yes, 5 years

It's a tough situation you are in and your reactions are understandable. Like others said, move your family to an apartment of your own and then try and get your driving license (crucial). Also, think about going back to school even if it's one class per semester or online, it will pay off later. Hope this helps. Good luck to you. I pray that God will give you the strength and wisdom to handle the situation 

There are so many websites and apps you can use. You can try downloading "Indeed job" on the app store. And try to setup an account with LinkedIn. Hope that help. Good luck.

Hi everyone! 

I cant stand my excitement! When i wake up this morning i saw an e-mail from USCIS and it was a short e mail saying that there is an action in our case and it was approved.

i couldnt believe, i looked the e-mail for minutes... Then i called my fiance but he is sleeping now, so he will see the update on our case when he wakes up, i am  super excited!!! 

Soooo,i just wanted to announce that with you guys, WE ARE APPROVED!!!

i know more approvals are on the way soon, it is coming!!!

Congratulations! My timeline is similar to yours. I’m praying we receive our approval today too.

The receipt number on my biometrics letter is not working, I don't know what to do. How do I track my case online? Please help!

You have to wait 75 to 90 days before you will receive your ead card, If not you can call after hitting 90 days, My aos is showing the same status and the I-485 application depends on your local office. Atlanta is processing May 11th 2014 application as of Oct 31st. also on the I-485 I have heard that the tracking is not reliable to some people as they have already got their greencard and still showing fingerprint fee recieved

Thanks for your response.

I'm new to this forum, just hoping to get some closure. Filed since Oct. 25th 2014, and Biometrics Nov. 20th still no word yet. AOS showing fingerprint fee received on Oct. 28 and EAD show my case was received Oct 28. Congratulations to all those who have received their EAD and interview date.
