  3. We were instructed to take an I-864 in wife's Taipei interview (a few years ago). If in doubt, take it. BTW, I would change profile country to Taiwan. Otherwise, any country/consulate specific stats and timelines will show under China instead of where the interview actually took place (Taiwan).
  4. Note that getting a US passport within a month might require some effort if oath is administered same day as interview.
  5. This might be helpful. It could take up to a year or longer for petition approval. Then add a few more months for visa approval.
  6. I would add them to your health insurance as soon as possible for several reasons. However, I haven't seen proof required in several years. Good luck.
  7. Wife filed more than a year ago. This is what my wife's account shows right now:
  8. It is a very important decision. The only thing we can do is offer our opinions and provide the info we have learned over years of studying the process and thousands of case histories. Good luck on your journey. You deserve a smooth trip.
  9. Co-worker is misinformed, but you are free to choose your own path. A Cr-1 will result in a Green Card much sooner than a K-1. One more thing: I have been here for 7 years. I have seen many people who regretted choosing a K-1. I have seen exactly zero CR-1 couples say they wish they had chosen a K-1 instead.
  10. On what does your co-worker base this analysis? VJ history shows the times to be almost the same. VJ average processing times show: K1: 593 Days Start to Interview CR-1: 606 Days Start to interview Your expedite reason might be tough to approve. "Expedite" does not mean fast. We have already explained the benefits of a spousal visa over a K-1. Your choice..
  11. No. USCIS will have considered your marriage consummated once you have been in the presence of each other either during or after the marriage ceremony.
  12. A real Visa Journey Wedding!!! Nice!!!

  14. If you are going upload new documentation, then I would upload an updated I-864 along with accurate supporting documents. If you wait until the interview to present a new I-864, there is a chance the Consulate Officer will require you to upload it to CEAC then. But, as the note says, the CO will make the final determination.
  15. You must either list tax info income in the 3 boxes, or you must indicate why you were not required to file for those years. You can enter "0", then annotate ""Income below filing threshhold" beside those boxes.
  16. Current income is king. What you reported on past taxes is not as important. Attorney is correct. If your income was insufficient on your initial I-864, then upload a new, updated I-864 with CURRENT pay stubs/employment letter to show current annual income. Current annual income is calculated as follows: Gross income from most recent pay period multiplied times number of pay periods per year (12 months) = Current Annual Income. Example: If most recent gross monthly income is $5,000, then current annual income is $60,000 (multiplier is 12). If pay periods are every 2 weeks, then the multiplier is 26.
  17. If there are 2 RFEs, then answer each RFE separately.
  18. @PWC Utah Marriage Over Zoom Is Valid for Immigration Purposes - Chodorow Law Offices (lawandborder.com)
  19. There are numerous examples of members who have done this. A Utah Zoom Wedding is not prohibited in the section you quoted. You are certainly not the first to ask. Here is just one example of a success:

  21. She needs to actually live only in the US to file an I-485 package. She can't legally file an I-485 if she lives outside the US. Once she files the I-485, she can't leave the US at all without an approved advance parole document or a Green card.
