GM everyone! I GOT THE LETTERS! 

Alo buenas!
Mujeres, mi PD es enero 2016, ayer estuve hablando con NVC y me dijeron que no me pueden dar una fecha para el WL pero que ya estan trabajando con los casos de mi fecha y que el WL sera enviado "en las proximas semanas".
 
Cual es el PD de ustedes?

I would take that:)
 

Oh I don't care about the credits no worries, I enjoy this blog and it helped me a lot also. God bless your journey!

Your wife has to fill out an  I-864 even if she doesn't work and then will have to write a letter explaining her situation, what ever it is-stay at home mother, disabled, whatever and why she doesn't have tax returns.  Her uncle (or someone else) will have to be a joint sponsor for your application or else it will be denied.  As long as the joint sponsor meets the guidelines (found on form I-864P) for her/his family/dependent size, your wife not working will not have bearing on the outcome of your case.

Hi. Did you mean January 2016? My PD is April 2016 and I was soo delighted to see the movement in the Dates for Filing. I called NVC and they said that I will be receiving a Welcome Letter sometime in May (same goes for you). Then we can start the 6-step processing.

Oh, you are doing the Adjustment of Status? My husband is doing Consular Processing. For AOS the rules are slightly different. 
"When USCIS determines there are more immigrant visas available for the fiscal year than there are known applicants, you may use the Dates for Filing Applications chart to determine when to file an adjustment of status application with USCIS. Otherwise, you must use the Application Final Action Dates chart to determine when to file an adjustment of status application with USCIS.
Unless otherwise indicated on www.uscis.gov/visabulletininfo, you must use the “Application Final Action Dates” for determining when you can file a Form I-485 with USCIS."
 

Oh ok, so we are in a same boat. Yes, the reason the Welcome Letter will come in May is that NVC has to wait for the May Bulletin to be official. Right now we are still on the April Bulletin. In your Welcome Letter you'll get the crucial numbers you'll need to start the 6-step process that is beautifully explained on this website:

I already have most of my Affidavit paperwork ready to go.

Oh thank you! My name is Anna by the way:) If you have any questions please let me know and I'll try my best to answer.
