What evidence are they asking for if you don’t mind me asking?

Since I only applied our marriage certificate and photo of our relationship before marriage so they requested more evidences about our share life after we're married. Good thing that I've been collected these documents in the past 2 months.

They updated through my email and I login to see the action. 

Just an update on my case lately.

May 10: Received RFE for more evidences 

May 15: Interview was scheduled (haven't known the date yet)

May 15: EAD card was produced

I-485 got approved today! So excited we made it to this point. Almost seems like there was no need to file the EAD and AP but ill take it! To everyone else hang in there your day will come hopefully real soon!

Congratulations 🎊🎈 

I saw my AP showed case was closed and I check the document tab under EAD and I my combo card was approved today. So happy!

Same for us! Only I130 got approval from last month. Still no EAD or AP.

I filed I130 online because I don't want to print out all the pictures from our timeline 😂

Then 1 month later I sent my I485 package with I130 receipt of notice. And My I130 was approved this weeks after 2 months. 
So I think they are 2 different applications and you can file either way, but online is easier because the system receives it immediately. It's my opinion.

No. From our personal experience ..

 

Each I 864 form is only for 1 immigrant .. the other parent is not added to the other parents I864. This is because there is no actual sponsorship yet.. Only potential sponsorship until the visa is approved and issued  

Got it! thank you so much for your help!

Part 3 number 2 it said "Do not include any relative listed on a separate visa petition". That's why I didn't add me mother as family member in my father's affidavit of support. 😫

You include them in family and list relation to principal immigrant. But you don't check the box 2 in part 3.

 

You're sponsoring them in different petition.

Ok so I will check only box 1, then put my mom's info in family member 1, then part 3 number 29 I have to input 2 right? does it conflict with my mom's affidavit?

Part 3 Question 1 - Yes.

You're sponsoring principal immigrant on each form. Each parent is a principal immigrant and they don't have derivatives.

 

My understanding is #2 is for derivatives. For example, when you file for spouse and minor child of yours.

I agree about part 3 not mention my mom in as family member. 
The only thing we're stuck is part 5 I don't know where to add my mom in so the total household size is 5. Maybe I just add 1 in number 6 (doesn't matter she is not LPR) so the total can be 5?

Wait...

 

Part 3 - should enter information for both mother and father he's sponsoring.

 

Then in part 5:

1) 2 (both parents)

2) 1 (himself)

3) 1 (wife)

4) 1 (kid)

 

Total = 5

 

Same total for mother's form and father's form.

That's the total perhaps? The question about LPRs 

I agree the total should be 5 but if I fill number 6 is 0 then the total I count on the form is only 4. The whole thing is so confused 🥲

He is sponsoring both of them so 2 plus him plus anyone else.

Yes himself, his wife, his kid and my parents but he fill 2 different form I864 for my parents and we're stuck at Part 5 we don't know should we put 1 in number 6 because both my parents are not LPR yet. 

11 minutes ago, OldUser said:

The count should include the other sponsored person, of course.

Thank you but I'm confused because it said "if you have sponsored any other persons on form I864 or I864EZ who are now lawful permanent residents" but both my parents are not LPR. What should I put in here? ☹️

Hi everyone, if my brother is sponsoring both my parents at the same time but in 2 different application. in form I-864 part 5, number 6 (person that you have sponsored in form I864) does he needs to count 1 for my mother in my father's application and 1 for my father in my mother's application? 

Thank you for your help.

Hi everyone, my brother is applying for IR5 visa to bring my parents here. Their I130 was approved, my brother is filling form I864, his tax return is filled jointly with his wife and their household size is 3, total income is around $40k. So he has a co-sign sponsor but the co-sign sponsor is co-signing for another case, her income is around $60k and her tax return is filled jointly with her husband (he's retired). 
is the co-sign sponsor qualified to co-sign for 2 more people? Does my brother's wife need to fill form I864A?

We appreciate for your help!

Hello guys. Has anyone had success with calling the USCIS contact number and speaking with an agent to get their online access code? I’ve tried the “live chat” with Emma three times (on three different days) but every time the agent declines to go provide me the code. And they log out before I even have a chance to ask a follow up question. The last agent I chatted with was kind enough to let me know when our biometrics was scheduled for but I’m concerned the biometric appointment notice may not come in the mail before the date since they scheduled the biometrics so close to when they received our AOS packet 
Any advice/tips will be much appreciated. 

I stayed up until 3am to start the live chat with them since I live in Hawaii, people said there is no waiting line if you start early around 8-9am EST. I connected immediately with a live agent, I told her I would like to have my online access code, she asked my information then gave the code for me. First try worked well! I changed my biometrics appointment to the next day and 5 days later I received the letter from them.

You will have to connect to a Live Agent in order to ask for the online access code, from 7am to 7pm EST. 

I tried various times last week, and finally was able to get my online codes from a nice agent this morning - only for a letter to arrive in the evening with the code haha

 

You can either try via the chat, but likely a letter will arrive shortly with your online access. 

Once you have the code, you can choose to see if there is an earlier biometrics appointment available. 

 

 

Thank you so much!

Hi everyone,

My husband and I used to applied for K1 visa in 2015, I passed the immigration medical exam in my home country and had vaccination record. My K1 visa was approved but we didn't get married at that time until now. I entered the US with my B2 visa, we got married and I'm going to apply for AOS. My question is do I need to finish form I-693? I only have vaccination record because at I submitted my medical result at the US customs when I entered the US by my K1 visa.

Thank you!

Hi everyone, my fiancé sent out our package in March, later then he lost his credit card and had to cancel the card. We knew our payment wouldn't be made at USCIS and they will reject our application. So should we wait for the package is being sent back or resubmit another one since it's been 2 months? Thank you for your help!

Hi everyone, we sent out our package on March 15, 2021. But my fiancé lost his credit card so he had to call the bank to cancel the card. What should we do now to update the payment information? Will they contact us if they can't charge the card before they send it back to us. Thank you for your help!

Thank you guys for all the advice ❤️

You have to answer the questions before first. Those fields will only open up if you answer with yes on the question before

I did, but it's still not available.
