Because you can't use a USCIS case number for CEAC. You can use the inquiry link to ask NVC for your DOS case #, or you can wait until NVC sends you the info.
I would read the I-864 instructions closely to become an "A student" of that form. Otherwise, you are headed toward an RFE.
A few things I see from your post:
1. Just your tax forms are not enough. You should include evidence of your current annual income. It isn't really "additional evidence".
2. Tax forms do not indicate CURRENT annual income unless you are self-employed (which does not appear to be the case). They reflect past income.
3. W-2s are part of past tax return income. They do not always reflect current income.
- Case example in point: A person who reported $200,000 on last year's tax return loses his/her employment since filing (and is currently unemployed). His/Her current annual income now would be $0.00. USCIS wants to see that the sponsor will have the ability to financially support a new immigrant for the future. That's why CURRENT & future income is king rather than past tax return information.
Current annual income is calculated as follows:
Most recent paystub gross income multiplied times the number of pay periods per year (12 months) = Current annual income
Good luck.
They will likely extend it themselves. You can contact them and ask them to extend if you like. The only real control of validity you have is if you want to withdraw the petition.
Tend to Agree. Some ideas to consider. Anyone else have thoughts?
OP can marry, then:
1. File an I-130 for each of them.
2. Spouse can file an I-485 to adjust status.
3. Children can do consular processing in home country.
This could cause issues for spouse due to travel/work restrictions after filing I-485
Option 2 after marriage
1. File an I-130 for each of them.
2. Spouse and children all do consular processing in home country (Spouse travels back to home country for medical & interview).
This is going to take quite a bit of coordination and travel.
Thoughts or ideas, anyone?
She should answer all questions, whether on the DS-160 or questions from an officer, honestly. You should NOT submit an I-134 since it will not help, yet, it could hurt her case.
Your I-134 could show that she has a reason to remain in the US illegally.....especially with a USC BF or GF. An I-134 would not overcome the fact that anyone applying for a B2 is already assumed to have intent to stay in the US. That is her responsibility to show strong ties to home country.
1. There is no sponsorship for a B2 visa. In fact, your submission of an I-134 showing she cannot support herself during the visit could actually harm her B2 case (if they even looked at the I-134). Don't do it.
2. She should NEVER, EVER lie on a US government form or to a US immigration official.....ever!!!
