All, I (US citizen) petitioned my mom and dad by filing I-130. I am filling out I-864 for my mom first and I have some questions to ask for I-864. I started working in 2024 and made 65k which my spouse and I filed 2024 tax as married jointly. We filed tax together as married jointly since we got married. However, I had no income in 2023 and 2022 but my spouse income had been steady around 80k the whole time. I am still currently employed and expected to make around 75k in this year (2025) however the tax 2025 might not be filed during NVC step. I assume I need my spouse to file I-864A. I have question relating to I-864 incomes for 3 previous years in Part 6 questions:16.a, 16.b and 16.c. which is total my income as reported in federal income tax returns fir most recent year was 16.a) most recent year 2024, do I put 65k or my spouse plus my income together in irs transcript? 16.b) 2023, Do I put 0 or total income from irs transcript that only has my spouse income? 16.c) 2022 same as 16.b) Thank you.

same i got two emails about it. I checked document tab and all tabs but I could not find anything. It might take time to show up.

All, I (US citizen) petitioned my mom and dad by filing I-130 in early 2024. I am filling out I-864 for my mom first and I have some questions to ask for I-864. I have read instruction form few times and I still confused. I started working in 2024 and made 65k. We filed tax together as married jointly since we got married. However, I had no income in 2023 and 2022 but my spouse income had been steady around 80k the whole time. I am still currently employed and expected to make around 75k in this year. I have few questions and hope someone can help me out. 1. My first question is do I need my spouse to do joint sponsor for my mom meaning that my spouse will file I-864A form as I heard somewhere that I need to have two years income tax? 2. Part 3) Question 2 is the one that confused me” I am sponsoring the following family members immigrating at the same time or within 6 months of principal immigrating in part 2 (do not include any relative listed on separate visa petition)”. My dad will or might fly on same day with my mom but since it is two separate visa petitions and not dependent, I would not checked this box for question 2? 3. For total household size question since I have filed for mom and dad. Our household size is now 3 (Spouse, son and me). For my mom’s I-864, is it going to be 4, and my dad’s I-864 will be 5? Thank you for taking time to read.

Yeah. I am filing online for him as well.

Agreed. I think Timona thought I might answer the question 61a/b Part 4. My mom lives outside of US that is why I dont fill in City/ State questions for 61a and 61b Part 4. I only filled for 62a/b/c Part 4 questions for consulate process. I was asking what city/state the application was filed for my mom when I submitted her application online in Part 5 for questions 3a/b.

Yeah I did not enter US city state in other question for I-485 because she lives outside US. I chose outside of US and entered city/ country for consulate process. This question in other hands do not pop up country and it is same on hard copy with city and state.

I cant because state drops down button only has US states.

Hello, I filed petition for my mom online using I-130 form where she is living outside of US. I am now filing for my dad. I have question relating to Part 5 I-130 as followed: 1. Have you ever previously filed a petition for this beneficiary or any other lien? Yes as I filed for my mom. Provide name, place and date of filing where I have a hard time with place: City or Town and State. I filed her application online and she will have to go through consulate process. Which city and state I need to put here? Is it my city and state? There is no service center either as this is online process. Thanks.

Thank you. It will be repeated many times if I am going to apply for my sister and brother as well.

Hello, I am in process of filling out I-130 to sponsor my parents and I am now US citizen. I have few questions relating to I-130 Part 5 Mom petition: I am filling for my mom and I need help with Part 5 questions 1. Have you ever previously filed a petition for this beneficiary or any other alien. The answer should be No. No problem with this question. 2. If you are also submitting separate petitions for other relatives, provide names. The answer is I should include my Dad name there even I have not submitted it yet? Dad petition: 1. Have you ever previously filed a petition for this beneficiary or any other alien. The answer should be Yes as I filed for my mom at this time and provide my mom name/ date file etc. Is this correct? 2. If you are also submitting separate petitions for other relatives, provide names? Do I need to provide my mom’s name or I already filed for her and her application has my dad name already hence I dont need to mention it again? Thanks.

I would not prefer to put fake end date on my current marriage to prevent further misleading information.

I am planning to do online and clarify at interview as I hate to print out a list of evidences for 3 years marriage. Any issue came up when you clarified at interview? Thanks.

I am his second marriage and I did fill out the first marriage that he divorced with date etc. I was thinking to add myself into it but it wont allow as it will ask date of marriage and end date of marriage. I will check all question again but this is weird to me.

Hi all, I am trying to file N400 using online tool and got a roadblock. My current husband divorced his previous marriage to marry me. When I reviewed application before submitting, it said my husband got married once which is incorrect so I paused my application until I know how to fix it. On paper form, the question 8, part 10 I can type 2 easily but online tool does not have this question. It asked my husband prior marriage info date of marriage and divorced which I filled it. I might misunderstand the question 8 part 10 which might only ask total prior marriages without including current marriages which is me? Question8 part 10: How many times has your current spouse been married (including annulled marriages, marriages to other people, and marriages to same person)? If your current spouse has been married before, provide the following information about your current spouse’s prior spouse. Can someone educate me on question 8 part 10 whether it needs to be 1 or 2? If it is 2 then how can I fix by using online tool? I have not submitted the application yet. Thanks.

I have heard multiple cases in Vietnam got denied because divorced and then re married the same person. Lets not talking about visa thing and ask ourselves: How many percent of people will remarry the same person in real life after divorced ? It is really rare so IO wont believe it.
