Hi guys,

I got the same "Request for Initial Evidence". I'm sending all the taxes returns again plus W2s and 1099s.

But I have a question: Should I send another form I-864 attach to the docs? What did you guys do?

Thanks

Mona

Can anyone help????

Please!!!

Hi,

My husband is sponsoring me, but he doesn't meet the Income Requirements. We are gonna use his stepdad as a household member. His stepdad and his mom fill the taxes forms jointly, but his stepdad is the one that makes the money(I am sending his W2s as well).

On the form I864A, Part.1, question n.8: Its asking my husbands stepdad what is his relationship to the Sponsor, its no alternative for stepdad, should we put parent anyway???

Should I use just his stepdad as a household member or should we use his mom as well? If we decide to use his mom, she needs to fill a I864A as well, right? I preffer not to use her because is kind of hard to split their taxes once they fill it together and she doesnt work(no W2s).

We also have to provide proof of their relationship...Is the taxes papers enough(there it is that his mom and his stepdad are married filling jointly)???

How could we proof that we have the same residence?

On Part 2., n.13, they are askin for a Indicate number, what that would be???

All my forms are ready to go I just need to finish the I864A to send everthing, please help!!!

Thanks a lot,

Mona.

Hi,

But on the form I-130, part 22, its asking my husband : " Your relative is in the United states and will apply for AOS to that of a lawful permanent resident at USCIS office in: ....

Should I put the office in Chicago/IL??

Just wanna make sure,

Thank you,

Mona.

You put your local USCIS office down.... not where you are sending the form too..

So...Should I put Anchorage/Alaska???

Oi Mona, se este é o escritório local do USCIS, então é este que vc deve colocar =)

Temos um grupo aqui onde nós brasileiras nos encontramos "virtualmente" para conversar, se chama "Brasileiritchas". Fica o convite para vc aparecer por lá, ok?

Hi,

I am a brazilian citizen got married to USC and I'm fillin up all the paper work to get the green card. We are planning to send off all my paper work this week but I want to change my last name for my husband's last name and I was reading some of the topics and wondering if would be smart to change my name now, before to start all the process, or after, on the interview or after that.

I need some advice.

Thanks a lot.

Mona.

The answer is "A". Your I-130 will be approved by the time they approve the I-485, even if it's approved only minutes before.

Thank you so much!!!!

Hi,

I came to this country on a J-1(not subject to the two-year residence requirement), got married to an USC but my visa has already expired. Now I'm filling all the forms to become permanent resident but I have a question on the form I-485...

On Part 2 they ask for my Application type and I dont know what I should put there...

letter "a"- an immigrant petition giving me an immediately available immigrant visa number has been approved (Attach a copy of the approval notice, or a relative, special immigrant juvenile or special immigrant military visa petition filed with this application that will give you an immediately available visa number, if aprooved.)

or letter "h" - Other basis of elegibility. Explain.

Then explain that "I came to U.S. under J-1; however, now patitioning for permanent residence by marriage to an USC."

I dont know what to do because I call the USCIS number twice and they gave me this 2 different answers.

I think the answer would be "a", but I am not sure because I'm filling the I-130 and I-485 together so the I-130 hasn't been aprooved yet. But if they will approved my I-130 and then Adjust my status (I-485)(I dont know if its like this that the process happen) letter "a" would be the right answer for sure.

Can anyone help???

Thanks a lot,

Mona.

Mas no AP eles falam que eu posso ter problema pra voltar se eu tiver mais de 180 dias out of status ou overstayed...nao??? Tem 5 meses que eu sai do programa...e se deus quiser vo mandar meus forms semana que vem...Entao acho que nao vou ter problema se sair do pais com um AP.

No meu I-485 eu nao sei o que colocar no meu Application Type, como estou mandando todos os meus "forms" juntos(I-130, I-485,I-864, I-765, I-131) nao sei se deveria colocar letter "a"("an immigrant pettition giving me an immediately visa number has been aprooved (Attack a copy of the approval notice, or a relative, special immigrant juvenileor special immigrant military visa petitionfiled with this application that will give you an immediatelyavailable visa number, if approved) or letter "h" (other basis of eligibility. Explain.)...se eu marcar letra "h" eu iria explicar que eu entrei no pais com visto J-1 e que estou aplicando para ajustamento de status by marriage to USC.... O que vcs acham????Alguem tem alguma ideia???Estou em duvida pq eu liguei no 0800 do USCIS para tirar essa duvida e eles me deram duas diferentes respostas.
