First is the form I-864, Affidavit of Support. Do you plan to use a joint sponsor?

2nd is intent to return to the US.

3rd is proof of domicile.

I believe what you have will be fine for 2 and 3 but concerning the I-864 we need to know if you'll be using a joint sponsor? If you are you should be able to get some help (if needed) from your joint sponsor especially if it's family with # 2 and 3 also.

Be aware this can move very fast! We filed our I-130 Feb 17, 2016 and were approved Feb 26th.

Just finished my wife's interview yesterday March 22nd. Approved..

So from start to end only took us 34 days.

It could have been 24 days if we had understood the process better and had all our docs ready.

As it was we had to wait for docs mailed from the US.

You will need lots of supporting documents, originals and copies.

Good luck

Thanks for your response and congratulations! Yes, we do have a joint sponsor, who is my uncle. He will also provide the letter of accomodation agreement for us. By the way, how long did it take for you to get the paperwork from the US over here? I just requested it yesterday and I'm a little worried that it might take long for the delivery and whatsoever. And is it true that there is a high chance of me being declined for joint sponsors? I'm also a little worried that if I book the one-way plane tickets now, I might get denied. ? hopefully not, though.

Hi!

My husband is a US citizen and we filed for DCF two days ago. The lady took our paperwork, clarified the forms and made sure everything's a-OK, made the payment, and we're out. I'm a little anxious about the interview, though we dont have my case number yet. We're having a hard time checking how we can prove domicile and/or reestablish here since he left US when he was 17 only for college here in the PH. He really planned to go back to the US after college, but I was pregnant when he graduated April 2015 and we just got married last January 2016, so he waited until we got married so it will be easier for us. Now here's the catch: proof of domicile. He didnt have any bank accoumts, a drivers license, voters registration, bills addressed to the US, since as Ive mentioned, he was underage when he left.

Is it sufficient if we just get a letter of accomodation agreement for the house we're planning to stay at, a copy of two one-way tickets booked to the US, copy of his college transcripts for proof he is sticking to the original plan, copies of our kids' birth certificates showing that his American citizenship is still acknowledged (he's a dual citizen, btw) also email correspondence for possible job opportunities? Im really worried about this part since this is essential for the Affidavit of Support.

Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Im just so worried about all of this

Got it! Thanks for your speedy response ?

But how about for the proof of domicile? He went back in the PH since he needs to finish college here. He just graduated last year. However he doesnt have any bank accts, a drvers license or rental leases or utility bills since he was still underage when he was sent back to the PH. What type of paperwork do we need to present for the proof of domicile? We'll be living with my uncle when we get there, though.

Hi,

Just need some advice here abt filing I-130 via DCF. My husband is the US Citizen and he does not meet the income requirement so we definitely require an affidavit of support.

Does he need to file an affidavit of support from himself even though he does not have a job at the moment? My uncle will be the co-sponsor in the adfidavit of support we will be submitting. Thanks!
