Hello! My husband has tax returns for 2018 and 2017. He did not work in 2016 as he was a student and he only worked for half a year in 2017. He worked in 2019 but my k1 will expire and I will need to file for adjustment of status before the 2019 w2 and tax returns/1040 arrive. Will it be an issue that he can only show income for 2018 and half of 2017? We aren't sure what to do because the aos form says 3 years. 

Thank you for your help!

Maybe the real Russian assets were the friends we made along the way.

did you attend the interview? how was it... that was super quick to already say issued!!! how exciting 

I did not attend but I was told the interview was very short and not so difficult 😁

4chan /pol/ trolling prank. The idea is to force people who support both Islam and feminism to condemn one of them. 

The ceac says our case is ready for our interview when scheduled. Does this means it is at the consulate and it is time to do the ds160/medical/I-134? I thought that NVC or the embassy would contact us when it arrived at the embassy?

Please look at this post that someone put up yesterday. They obtained some stuff from a immigrant group that will help lay out some of the new rule for you. 

 

 

I didn't see anything about english fluency in this or anything on who exactly needs to be earning the 250% threshold. 

What a scary thread to read. A lot of people are saying a lot of different things. Is this, in summary, saying that the intending immigrant needs to earn 250% of the American poverty line while they were living in their home country? Or is it saying that the immigrant needs to earn, independently 250% of the poverty line for adjustment of status (I thought the immigrant isn't even permitted to work until after the adjustment of status)? Or is it saying that the household has to earn 250%?

Edit: Also is english proficiency now a part in this? What is the arbiter of whether or not someone is fluent I wonder.

The caveat there is that that document is specifically about the I-864, and not the I-134.

I did notice that, I'm just hopeful that since it references affidavits of support that the omission of the I-134 was a mistake. I suppose we'll find out soon.

Not true - please see https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/visas-news-archive/20161228_ink-signature-no-longer-required-on-affidavits-of-support.html

 

op you are fine with a scanned copy.

Thank you for this

Does anyone know for certain whether or not Moscow requires a wet signature on the i-134 for the k1 visa interview? I was planning to send photo copies and I didnt find any confirmation in the i-134 instructions pdf

NOTE: The I-134 requires a "wet" signature. They will send you the P3 through the mail. There are some documents that need to be completed which you will return and then your interview is assigned.

 

If you find anything not up to date or the information is wrong, please share your findings. Please compare the date of the P3 of mine with the date from your copy, once you receive yours from your embassy.

I wasn't aware a wet signature is required. I've been reading the i-134 instructions and it says photocopies are fine if they are legible but signatures cant be stamped or typed. Does that mean I can't fill out the form, sign it and then scan it to my fiance? The Russian post isnt really known for reliable or fast delivery so this is concerning. Also where you able to get info on the P3 stuff? I'm trying to find out if our consulate will send via email or physical mail. Thank you! 

We received our NVC case number over the phone and updated the beneficiary's mailing address and email address. Hopefully they contact her email rather than physical mail because the addresses are quite difficult and unusual (hard to find on Google maps but not so difficult on yandex) and i forgot to include the postal code. I was told the case would go through administrative processing and then go to the embassy but I thought AP was after the interview.

Got my noa2 dated July 11. I called NVC a while ago to update my fiance's address because it has changed since I submitted the I-129f. They told me to notify the embassy once they finish, which was strange because uscis told me to notify nvc once they finish. Anyways, nvc told me they didn't have my case yet so I dont have a case number at this time, but I feel like I'm supposed to be doing something other than sitting and waiting for a piece of mail. Should we be doing the ds160 or medical or background check for the beneficiary now?

Finally got the noa2 approval on July 11, so now I guess our case is going to the nvc. My fiance changed her address since I originally filed the petition in February so I'm not sure what to do. We don't want the embassy mailing packets to a residence she doesn't live at anymore. 

Uscis received my rfe submission June 13, still have not had an update so I am worried about it. That is like 3 weeks and counting 

Hello! We have RFE for criminal records but my fiance received an RFE some information already submitted and some that is unattainable. The rfe ask for court records for 3 citations and police records for them. He submit the court record with original document but only have 2 police record and both redacted his name because he was child at the time, the third record does not exist. How can this rfe be satisfied when it is just sending same information and new information that redacted his name? 

Thanks in advance 

Got an RFE asking for court records for 3 C misdemeanor convictions as a juvenile. I sent court records for all 3 with the original petition. I dont know what to do

Depending on how digging they have to go through social media it may or may not take some time. I agree it simple just isn't data collection that is why I said it just is more information to give them. What they do with the information is up in the air. 

 

They are already looking deep into people's lives so that is why I say it is not much of a big deal. People already send in criminal /history/records, years of financial records, travel history, family history, and beneficiaries must also go through a physical. Social media to me is not going to push a case past extreme delays.

I think instagram has like 800M accounts, VK around 150M, FB around 2.2B, so just to guess probably something in the order of 99% of potential beneficiaries will have social media. With social media having been around for a while (my post history going back 10 years and my beneficiary's going back 9) that's some serious, time consuming digging to do. I'm not really an optimistic person by nature but in my view with this being applied to just about all of immigrant and non immigrant visas, with the overwhelming majority of applicants being subjected to it, this seems like a death sentence to a lot of petitions, mine included. Maybe this will push k1 and cr1 visas to the same 12 year wait time that sibling visas are. We'll see I guess.

It is just more information to give them. And to be honest, it is nothing to worry about if you have nothing to hide.

Well I wonder how this is going to affect people's timelines. I'm assuming this isn't just data collection and they actually intend to do something with this information, like go through every applicant's social media. Also, my beneficiary and I keep our social media profiles locked and set to private so no one other than our friends can see what we post, I'm curious if that will trigger a USCIS friend request or if that will just frustrate the case. 

I just tried the ds160 and it is on there.

How did you get through to an officer?! 

I asked to be transferred. Had to leave my name and number and they called me back around 5 hours later.

Yes that background check scares me. I have 2 DWIs from 14 years ago but I documented them in the application, unfortunately the courts purged those cases long ago since I fulfilled the sentencing.  I’ve also moved around quite a bit in the past 3 years, but I also try to document it all out carefully.  

Just not knowing what the hold up is agonizing.

I also have a background, granted all of my stuff is class c misdemeanors (lowest level offense) from 9-10 years ago for stuff like underage drinking and disorderly conduct. Anyways, I submitted my certified court copies and such but found of yesterday I had an RFE coming in the mail. I called today and eventually got transferred to a tier 2 officer who told me the rfe related to my background. Hopefully you avoid this problem because it sucks.
