I'm completing the i130 for my wife on the USCIS website, it states..

"a few weeks after you submit your application, we will contact you to schedule an appointment at an application support center near you. At the appointment, we will get your fingerprints, photograph and signature"

however I don't leave the UK until Jan 4th 2022, which is when my flight is booked. 

I was advised that they wouldn't need my fingerprints etc. Only my wife's later in the process?

Found it, yes it was your wife, a week ago

 

 

ahhh! i never knew this! 

thank you for confirming this for me, i will be having a little chat with the woman later!

I believe all information should be for ME to understand as the petitioner, i'm somewhat annoyed that i haven't been kept in the loop, but she may just be trying to help. If you could help ME that would be very helpful, as this all doesn't make sense to me, and my wife gets confused with it all and then confuses me more!!!!!!!!!!

Could you help me going forward?

I am currently filing out the i-130 to sponsor my wife, i am currently in the UK with her and have been for 15 months. 

On the online form, it states 'mailing address' which is my mom's house in the states.

it then asks if you 'live' at your mailing address, which will b the case when we return. so not sure if i need to answer yes to satisfy the domicile element?

Then it asks for your addresses from 5 years ago, would i include my wifes address in the UK?

I will be staying here until her visa is approved, so not sure whether to add it, as it wants a end date from me?!

please help, i want to get it right!

Maybe have your cousin formalize the job offer in writing.  It sounds like you plan to be in your own place prior to your wife’s interview so you should also have a lease by then, but you could also ask your parents to write up a quick lease agreement.  Additionally, I assume you have written a formal declaration to establish domicile.

 

Good Luck!

My cousin said he can send me a letter from his own office, with letterhead and in formal text. so thats one thing i can confirm.

My parents would be happy to write up a lease agreement, so again another thing ticked off the list.

I can also write a declaration of intent to domicile, and/or prove domicile.

Would i be able to stay past noa2, if i prove INTENT to domicile, or would i have to return to the US?

I would really like to return on the same flight as my wifes, and have read intent to domicile isn't enough now?

Hi all,

I've been out of the states for around 15 months, my last tax return was 2018-2019.

I've been told on a facebook i130 page that i don't have a strong enough case to prove domicile, as when i return to the states I will be living with my mom & step dad, before moving into an apartment. I will be getting the next flight home once we receive noa2, and will have an immediate job with my cousin at our family shop, i can provide two affidavits of support, and after two months of being home i will have accomodation for me and my wife. My bank account shows both our names, and i have money going through that account regularly. 

I'm looking for your opinion and advice regarding my domicile, and whether intent to domicile is accepted anymore?

thanks

Mark.

I, myself, personally haven't posted anything on here, not sure if my wife may have? 

I know she posted somethings on a facebook i130 page, but we didn't get any answers.

& she may of  posted on here before we left the states, but not since we have been in the UK.

I myself, USC, would like answers for myself, so i can ensure that i file all the correct paperwork.

Hi 

I'm hoping someone would be able to assist.

In the summer of 2017 i started talking to my now wife from the UK over facebook.
(we met via a comment i made on a news video)
We met in person in the sept 2017, she stayed for two weeks.

When she returned during xmas 2017 i proposed and my wife chose to stay in the USA so we can marry and begin AOS.

I married my now wife, in March 2018. 

July 2018 rolls through and i'm made redundant, we had no money as we were made broke by bills (a only one working)

My wife was 112 days overstayed when i lost my job which is when my father in law advised he would sponsor me for work.

Once we got to the UK, my father in law made a confession that he had no means to sponsor me and my wife was unable to meet the visa guidelines to sponsor me.

Since then (july 2018) i have been living within the UK at my in laws house with my wife.

I have filed taxes for both 2017-2018 and 2018-2019, haven't worked since in the UK.

I'm ready to return home to the USA!

I've since joined a I-130 page on facebook, and was told i don't have a strong case for intent to domicile or domicile proof?

I have a bank account still in the USA which i use for money transfers from my family
I am able to provide an employment offer from my cousin who owns his own muffler shop,

My mail goes to to my grandpa's house which is were my mom & step dad live; this would be my intended resident upon return to the usa, until i am able to lease a house/flat for myself and my wife.

my step dad AND my mom can provide affidavits of support which far exceed the 125% poverty guideline. 

I've been gone 15 months, but i'm concerned that my petition will not be granted after being advised on facebook that my intent to domicile is not sufficient enough, not even if i return upon receipt of noa2 (which we have been advised as long as i return home upon receipt of noa2 everything should be fine?)

I sure do hope there are people who can assist with this!!!

I do not mind leaving my wife to go to the USA, as we have spoke about accepting the heartache for the time we have to spend apart.

P.s would my wifes green card be permanent as by the time all the paperwork has been filed we would have superceeded the 2 year anniversary of our marriage.

Thank you for reading and i hope i get some insight into this.

Regards,

Mark.
