    Carpe Vinum reacted to Crazy Cat in It's 2024.. Why are we sending in paper?   
    Just wait.  The I-751 can't be done online, either....and it will require a great deal more paper......a GREAT deal more.  I have found it is best to just jump through the hoops rather than letting them frustrate you.  Good luck on your journey.  It will be quite a ride.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to MalloryCat in Visa interview canceled because I filed for non immigrant appointment!   
    while on the US side the K-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa, embassies process K-1 visas (including the interview) as immigrant visas (meaning the immigrant visa side of the embassy is the part that processes it).
    it is weird and doesnt make a lot of sense. that is probably why they canceled the interview, because it was with the non-immigrant visa department and not the immigrant visa department like it should have been.

    Carpe Vinum got a reaction from Wisa in Is it advantageous to get married twice: Philippines and Online Utah Marriage   
    Good. We are leaving today to head back to the Philippines. The process to travel there has gotten much easier. Mothers are going to worry. Rightfully so. The more time he spends with you there the better you will be able to determine if you can trust him to follow through with a petition for you. Good luck!

    If your mother can guess at least month, just go with day 1 of that month and say  (on/about - o/a). Your father is deceased, doubt they'll check.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to Joyoussinger in Nine days to N400 interview, no word on I-751   
    My husband's I-751 was still pending at the time of his N-400 interview. We mentioned this to the security guards, to be sure they would let me in, too. He also told the IO and she looked it up. It was approved that day because of this. He was actually able to take the oath that day, too. You should all go to the interview,  because not going could be a missed opportunity. Best of luck!

    Carpe Vinum reacted to Uther in I-129F processed WAY faster than intended. Is there any way to slow this process down?   
    So we filed the paperwork a little over 10 weeks ago and despite seeing any other case taking upwards of at least 7 months we are already approved. The thing is this is way too fast of a timeline for us due to extenuating circumstances. Is there any way to slow down the process going forward? We were expecting all of this in total to take at least 14 months or more.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to TBoneTX in A Child/Minor was illegally attempted to be brought into U.S. and turned around, now as adult will that be held against him if he tries to enter legally?   
    It's not obvious at all that the person seeks to "immigrate" with use of a tourist visa; the OP asks about "applying legally for a visa" that happens to be a tourist visa.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to OldUser in British Airway refused daughter boarding with I-551 stamp   
    I think there should never be expired Green Cards in the first place. Extension letters, stamps etc confuse other countries and airlines. USCIS should be printing limited term green cards whenever somebody is waiting for N-400, renewing GC or waiting for I-751.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to K1visaHopeful in AOS Filing another Affidavit of Support i-864? (Already did one for k-1 visa petition)   
    The petitioner provided the K1 beneficiary with an I134 (not an I864) for their K1 visa interview.
     
    An I864 is required for I485.
     
    I134 and I864 are not the same.
     
    The I864 must be filled with current details and have current supporting financial documents so even if they were the same form, your documents would be not current.

    They forward the medical to the embassy in Manila. Lowers the risk of shenanigans. 😉 The sealed envelope may or may not come after visa approval. Depending on if your one of the lucky ones that gets a digital record.

    Carpe Vinum reacted to K1visaHopeful in Request for Evidence on I-485 regarding I-864   
    Income must be proven by the listed formats in the instructions.
     
    Because your taxable income as reported on your 2022 Tax transcript didn't meet the FPGLs, you'll need to provide proof in the manner of an employment verification letter and 6 months of paystubs (so getting a job now isnt gonna cut it) or other means if self employed (however that would be proven by your tax transcript). You have been very vague with your employment info so that's all I can provide on that front.
     
    If you don't have proof of employment, you can use assets however they will need to meet 3 times the FPGLs. How do you plan to prove you've had 3 times the FPGLs stashed away in crypto assets and that amount has been there for a year? Ie. Somebody didn't give you the money to deposit yesterday and you are sending it all back to them tomorrow).
    Assets are hard to prove never mind crypto currency. If they were cash in the bank, you'd need to provide a statement from the bank stating the conditions  and history of your savings.
    Are you able to retrieve that from somewhere/someone as concrete proof?
     
    The I864 is more important than you think and should not be taken lightly.
    You will not pass go if your I864 is not filled out properly and the amounts within it must match the VALID proofs exactly. They do not do math for you.
    PS. The tax return rolls over to 2023 tomorrow so if your tax transcript shows you met the FPGLs NOW, you can now use that instead of 2022. Your RFE may have even requested that. Look carefully.
    PSS. Although a JS seems to be your only option, your form still must be complete and correct regarding your info.
