Hey guys May filer here!

Sent the documents on the 21st

Just got the email and text this afternoon notifying me that the case has been received on May 22nd  and I’m very happy and excited! The case is now being transffered to California SC.

I guess 6 months is the normal wait now? 

My fiance has been to the US back in 2008, it's been almost 10 years since she left the US. I tried retrieving the I-94 info from the CBP website but it can only provide info for the last 5 years?

Hey guys, so my Fiancé traveled in the US using the J-1 visa back in 2008. My question is, do I need to provide anything from that travel in the I-129f? Also I found out that the I-94 form is still attached in her old passport and she can't remember why she didn't surrendered it. It was stated on the back of the form to surrender it when leaving the United States. Yes she still has her original boarding pass when she left the United States tho but is this gonna cause problems? Hi my Fiancé has been to the United States but she still has her I-94 attached in her old passport.

As for employment history.. be honest and factual.

5 in the household.. are they all claimed as dependents on your mom's tax return?  If no, they are not included in the count.     Poverty Guidelines

 

USEM does accept co-sponsors with the K-1, but it is a case by case decision (much accept a qualified co-sponsor with the immigrant visa).  One thing the embassy does look for is the co-sponsor with the K-1 be an immediate relative, your mom is a perfect choice in that regard.

Yes we’re all dependents. Myself, my brother and grandparents plus my Fiancé would be 6 in total including my mother.

I might not making much, probably just a grand a month at best, I only work 15 hours a week, I can’t work a full time job because I’m the only person that can take my brother to school and look after my grandparents while my mom is out working. Should I make a written explanation for that so my fiancé can present it to the Consul?

I’ve heard that the USEM favors students? plus my mom is my co sponsor. Do we have greater chance of getting approved? I’m going to school next year around August if lucky, I want my fiance to be with me before that.

Some embassies do not allow co-sponsors and, a few others, allow the beneficiary to sponsor themselves (as JFH pointed out).

 

As a suggestion,  evaluate the cost of the entire process, including Adjusting Status after you have married. Both processes are very expensive.

I’ve read through forums that the Manila Embassy does not allow co/joint sponsor?? wow that is kinda stressful. My mother comfortably earns more than $100k a year. My Fiance has a bachelor’s degree too. Are the CO in US Embassy Manila leniet to that?

Your mom can be your co-sponsor but she will need to meet the minimum income requirements for the household, including your fiance.

 

Thanks for the response!

I see.. my mother earned $70k last year, now she has 2 jobs and makes around $100k but we're 5 in the household including me. So my fiance doesn't need any income right?

So I've just started to fill out my K-1 Visa for my Fiance.

A little background:

I arrived here in the US back in 2010 with a IR-1 Visa and I am a USC now. Since then I have never had a job for a couple reason, 1st being I did not bother to look for one 2nd, I'm a babysitter for my younger brother (my mother is a registered nurse)

so I never had a real job for 7 years. I started to work as an Independent Contractor for Amazon called Amazon Flex. It's a delivery program that uses your own car to deliver packages to customers much like Uber. I can choose whether to deliver or not an I can pic a schedule. I started on September 2017 and still currently delivering. So my concern is, I don't have any tax return yet..

so my plan is to use my mother as a co sponsor because there is no way I can file my own since I don't have a tax return. What are the steps do I need to follow? will it hurt my application?

I have a question regarding on what to put on my "Employment History" on I-192F becuase I am an Independent Contractor/Self employed.

Any help, tips will be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
