I am having the same issue while uploading documents. Tried last evening,late night and early morning today and just now. Same error.Tired different browsers

I tried tonigth and it worked, manage to upload all the documents. It worked after 24hrs. Hope yours will work too

Thank you everybody for your help, really appreciate you all

Does anyone get this kind of error "application error" when uploading documents in the AOS? Is it normal? Is it just the system?

All the multiple documents are in 1 file and every document size is less than 2MB.

and bring the originals with you to the interview.

Thank you. And one more question if you dont mind. (By the way this case is not mine, just helping a friend😁)

for the income tax, the us citizen was still married for the yr 2016-2018 so they filed jointly. Now the questions is, for the nvc(with his new wife) should he just put the income that they made together with his ex wife or its just his income that he made during those years?

Hello fellow vjers, i have another question. For the documents to be submitted in the nvc, does it need to be original? Or just a photocopy? I am just confused if it should be original or not

Like the foreign spouse's police.clearance and termination of marriage and so on. Thank you guys in advance.

Being retired won't change anything with the petition. It was accurate at the time of filing.

 

What will matter is if he is able to financially sponsor (via the I-864) the beneficiary/beneficiaries now. If not, he will need a joint sponsor.

 

I don't think an I-864 was ever submitted...?

Also, no way to know if it's a spousal case or not, or if he is still married.

Thank you for your respond. Okay, then everything will be okay then.

By the way, i have a question, for the nvc, do they need original copy of documents? Like the police clearance and so on? Thanks

Hello fellow VJrs,  You guys are really a great help to me and I really appreciate all your help. And I have a question

Im helping a friend, when filing the petition, the Us citizen was still working and while the petition was still on the process for approval, he retired already. And now their case is already approved. Now the next step is the NVC, about the AOS , is it gonna affect anything? Is there any other form to fill out if the US citizen already retired? Im sorry to ask you guys this kind of question, i just need your help . Thank you in advance

good morning everybody, I have have a questions about the nvc process, as i am preparing already for the nvc stage of the process. my question is, Is the DS-260 and DS-261 is the forms to be filled is the latest? or is it changed? and the affidavit of support form is still the I-864? and if there is still another form to filled out aside from those forms?? thank you so much in advance.

Every single one.

Your friend needs to collect certified copies from the court(s) who adjudicated the cases.

Attach copies to the petition and list them all.

thank you for your help. by the way i have a question if you dont mind, in the form i-130 page 3 part 2, says to lists down all the prior marriages, and i got it already, but my question is, should i put the ex wife's maiden name? even tho it did not say "maiden name"? or should i just put the family name of the petitioner(ex husband) since in the divorce paper its not the maiden name is listed? im not sure if you know the answer but just asking, thank you in advance

To get your attention, not to rub salt in a wound, if you cannot read a question that says "all" and understand that all means all, you are probably not qualified to "help" anybody else with THEIR petition.  The most important things are to read carefully, interpret literally, and answer/respond accurately.  If you're still sure you can do that, carry on.

Well thank you for your comment. There is nothing wrong in HELPING a friend. And i will ask a questions here in VJ even if its the dumbest and the simplest questions you could ever see or hear, because I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERTYTHING IS RIGHT AND CORRECT. That is why i asked because i READ it carefully and i was not sure. I rather ask just to make sure of things,. Thanks tho

i have a question about the i-130 form, in PART 4 number 14 it says about the "other address and contact information" in number 14 it asked about the "day time telephone number" my question is, whose number should i put there? the petitioner or the beneficiary? coz the questions above the numbers were about the beneficiary, so i kinda got confused if whose number should i put.

All prior means ALL. So yes, you need the other divorce decrees.

okay thank you so much...

hello again everybody, vj is really such a great helped for me ever since and i just want to thank everybody for every helped that you guys did by answering my questions.

today im not gonna ask question, but just want to clarify something just to make sure that i understood it right. In the checklist for the i-130 it says to give copies of documents showing that all prior marriages were terminated, and i have a friend that im helping with the petition, and he got divorced for 3 times, i only asked for the very recent divorce paper as a proof, am i doing the right thing? or does he need to provide for the 1st and 2nd divorce paper? thank you guys in advance

He can submit a photocopy of his birth certificate/naturalization certificate instead as proof of citizenship if he wants, easier to do than scanning all 28+ passport pages + biographical page. If he’s using it for passport stamps as proof of bona fide marriage then he can just scan the pages with stamps, if to prove citizenship then yes it’s all pages, but like I said it’s easier to just use US birth certificate (if born in the US) or naturalization certificate (if born outside the US) as proof of citizenship. Photocopies/scans are better to use than photos as they are clearer and easier to read with no obstructions

thank you again, and one more question, since the beneficiary is not in the US, the beneficiary dont have to submit the passport size photo anymore? or is it still required?just like the petitioner has to submit photo also? appreciate your help

hello again everybody. i have another question again. i know i ask a lot of questions. haha. i just wanna make sure that im doing the right thing . my question is, about the required copies of the every pages of the USC passport, he only took picture of every pages of the passport and in the picture it shows his finger. is it acceptable or does it have to be scanned and not finger should be in the pics?? sorry for asking silly questions here. i just want to do everything right.. thanks again.....

Yes you'll list their names, but in the portion where it asks for their current residency, you'll write "deceased". You'll still put their names under the part where it asks for their names though

great.. thank you again for answering my questions. you are such a great help

good day everyone, i am helping a friend filling out his i-130 form. his parents are both deceased. my question is, do i still have to put their names in the form? even tho they are both deceased? or should i just put "deceased"?

thanks again

Only if the spouse beneficiary is physically present in the United States. If the spouse beneficiary is not physically in the United States, a signature is not required; same for passport-style photos. See Note 1 under "who may file form I130?" in the instructions for information on the signature requirements for I130a, and item 5.a under "general requirements" also in the instructions for information on passport-style photo requirements

one more question about the signature, since the beneficiary dont have to sign it, will just leave the space for signature blank right?

No problem and good luck! Keep in mind the petitioner will still have to wet sign the I130, but the I130a does not have to be signed. Make sure to have your friend thoroughly read the instructions for both forms

really appreciate your help, by the way, as i was reading tho, it says to sign the i-130a with ink by the spouse beneficiary.. im confuse.

Then no, nothing else is needed.  The process is exactly the same for ex military as it is for current military as it is for never military.  The only difference is active military may use 100% of the poverty guidelines vs 125%.  My husband was in the USAF. 

okay thank you so much. so i guess then will continue filling out the forms.. 

Godbless, you answered my question
