Hi Tymani,

 

Did you figure out what to do?

I'm in the same situation as your right now, me being the petitioner and my father (who has listed me as a dependent) filling an i-864.

I really appreciate your response!

We filed with the household size of "2" and didn't include his income as household income. Everything is moving smoothly so far. It should be just fine as long as you either meet the income requirement or have a joint-sponsor, like we did.

Good luck!

@Lucky Cat Hello,

I just updated my timeline. Yes, it is in accordance with the I-765, which we filed concurrently with our I-485. I am now realizing that the office would not issue a SSN on the basis of our K1 visa because it has been over 75 days since entry. We will have to wait until the I-765 is approved.

We checked on our I-485 that we would like USCIS to forward our information to the SS office and generate a new social security number. We only did this because our local SS office was closed due to covid-19. We can now get an appointment at the office, and a social security number. Is this still advisable after checking "yes" on our form? Will the overlap cause any issues with our application? Other thoughts?

Thanks!

Yes, I would still list her.

Hello,

I received an RFE for my i-944 and am currently filling it out. For "household size" we should include the beneficiary filling out the i-944 and myself (her spouse) - 2.

My father, who listed me as a dependent, is also our joint sponsor and filled out an i-864. Do we include him and his income as part of our household in the i-944? The instructions state that someone who lists you as a dependent should be included. But I am the spousal household member, not the declarant. The declarant is not listed as a dependent anywhere. 

Thanks!

Hi All,

My wife and I sent off our AOS packet without the i944 (in early September before the ruling was reversed). Because it is retroactive, we will likely receive an RFE for this. Can we go ahead and send the i944 to USCIS to add to our packet before an RFE to keep this as efficient as possible? 

Anyone else in the same boat?

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

My fiancee successfully entered the USA on a K1 visa 2 weeks ago. We have just moved into a new apartment (before filing adjustment of status).

Do we need to update our addresses anywhere? Or just be sure to update the information when we file for AOS?

Thanks VJ community!

I wish Australia would let me out as essential travel.. Well once I can get my interview anyway.

Yeah, sorry about that. I'm only confident in Canadian / US land border crossings. I can't speak to any airports...good luck!

Awesome, if i have  connection in Canadian airport i will be able to enter to US ?

It is always up to the discretion of the border officer. But, at least at this specific border crossing, their immigration desk said they are accepting K1 visas as essential travel. Take what I say with a grain of salt - these are confusing and volatile times - but at least it is encouraging. Good luck.

I called the actual border crossing location that my fiancee will be driving through next month (on her K1 visa). They said, as of today, they are deeming valid K1 visas as essential travel. A Canadian entering the USA on a K1 visa, under the current regulations (4/14/20), should be granted entry.

Had trouble getting this info so I thought I'd share:

As of 4/10/2020, the Canadian/US border is accepting K1 visas at the border crossing and deeming them, "essential travel". Just got off the phone with a border agent stationed at a crossing in New York.
