    At one time that omission added around a year's time....not sure if it still does.
  2. SalishSea
    No. You don’t get to choose field office or processing location. It is assigned by USCIS.
  3. SalishSea
    The transcript is a record of taxes paid/filing info. So if you haven’t filed, you won’t have a transcript. Filing status and W-4 are unrelated.
  4. SalishSea
    Do you understand that you can file MFJ even if she doesn’t work? Anyway, you can’t bring what you don’t have. You’ll need to focus on whatever evidence you can gather.
  5. SalishSea
    And here is where you’re confused….by the two meanings of AOS…. The tax transcripts referenced in the list are joint tax transcripts, filing MFJ, which shows marital commingling of finances (the point/focus of even having an interview), NOT a repeat of the same documents sent with the I-864.
  6. SalishSea
    You’re using AOS as affidavit of support, and I’m using it for adjustment of status. You need to show marital commingling of finances and other aspects of life. Yes, they looked at everything we brought. They asked for a new I-94, and we hadn’t brought that. Husband had travelled to Canada on AP, so they wanted the I-94, but the passport entry sufficed.

    They can’t ask for a waiver until the visa is denied for an incomplete medical. The waiver will add an extra year to the overall process.
  8. SalishSea
    How would you have already had joint tax transcripts when you filed for AOS?
  9. SalishSea
    Normally, a year at least has elapsed between sending your packet and having the interview, so there is a lot of updated info to bring. Most people won’t have tax transcripts or joint bank statements at all when they send off the AOS packet, if they marry and file immediately.
  10. SalishSea
    Print out and bring an updated I-94.
  11. SalishSea
    Won’t the 21 year old age out?
  12. SalishSea
    Does your lawyer think you are a US citizen? Because for your visa class (F2A) the wait time is years, not months.
  13. SalishSea
    It will entirely depend on whether you can convince them that you will comply by the terms of the nonimmigrant F-1 visa, and return home after your degree is completed. If you’ve had family members come over as nonimmigrants and stay, that doesn’t bode well.

    Unfortunately, a “100 % guarantee” from friends to help you may not be acceptable.
  15. SalishSea
    In theory, but it’s no more likely to work out for him. Unless the CO failed to consider evidence that was presented or could be presented, it will be denied. Cant show evidence you don’t have. Usually, this results from marrying at first sight and very little time spent together in person combined with other red flags/fraud indications, etc.

    So you’re now trying to sponsor a second relative to adjust from a tourist visa? Eventually they’ll stop giving your relatives visitor visas…..
  17. SalishSea
    As you found out in your previous thread, you can’t bring a sibling to the U.S. for at least 20 YEARS. these visas are for “family reunification.” If you’re not even living in the U.S., there is nothing to reunify.

    A friend’s just took over a year out of Seattle. Hopefully it has sped up by now. She received her new card in October.
  19. SalishSea
    Then why are you worried?
  20. SalishSea
    So she will need a waiver?
  21. SalishSea
    No, he won’t be able to do that.
  22. SalishSea
    “Opt out”. Does she have the cash to pay for whatever medical services she might need, like surgery, cancer care, drugs, etc?
  23. SalishSea
    Kinda like how Stockholm covers Norway…..
  24. SalishSea
    How is this even relevant? And why not direct the “friend” here to ask his own questions, rather than trying to impart third hand info?
  25. SalishSea
    Exactly. OP assumed those of us responding didn’t have first-hand knowledge because our replies didn’t fit with his incorrect assumptions.
