    Hi everyone, I just found this excellent resource. Wish I'd seen this at the time of filing. I filed i130 for my parents online, on Feb 7, 2022. Got the NOA1 the same day. Haven't received any updates since then.

     

    We then filed AOS I485 on May 11, 2022, and marked it for concurrent processing.
    In November, got an RFE for i864, since I'd mistakenly filed it using an expired version of the form. No progress since then.

     

    I'm wondering, will the RFE move the priority date to the RFE date? Other than that, waiting for an approval on the i130, hopefully soon.

     

     

    Your parents live abroad? 

    My sis-in-law filed for her parents in April and we're still waiting for a reply. Was she supposed to file I-864? I thought it was supposed to be filed if the parents were in the USA

    Hi, they did context within 2 days but they were not helpful at all. I hope that you will get a nice agent, but I was just given standard bureaucratic speech and was even given advice that didn't correspond to how things work (I.e  the agent told me to mail an expedite request which was then sent back to me. The sum of it was that I lost  $10 for nothing).

    Thank you! They sent us the text on Thursday so today Monday would be the 2nd business day but nothing as of now 😩 

    I hope we get a nice agent as well because we're going insane

    The situation has changed slightly since her bank has been banned from Swift. But generally, I do believe that it was incorrectly denied.

     

    In short, the reasoning is financial hardship in that the current war makes it impossible for me to provide support and for her to live comfortably. I cannot transfer money and it is too dangerous to support her in person. It would be a huge burden on me to be able to give support and it is needed on her end 

    Hi ! Did the tier 2 officer ended up calling you? And how did it go if you don't mind me asking.

     

    We're trying to expedite my husband's EAD and we received a text message saying we will be contacted in the next 2 business days

    For ours we used financial loss because he had a pending job offer. We had to try a few times before the expedite was approved. You can also try to expedite the I-485 using financial loss as the reason, they will most likely deny the expedite request but it might help trigger them to approve the I-765.

    I'll try that way, thank you! 

    My husband has two pending job offers plus we have some bills due both medical and taxes.. yet they still denied us. Jokes on them because I'll continue bothering them lol

    I what you're attempting will cause more confusion. The RFE letter is pretty straight forward on what needs to be fixed. From what I read, the petitioner also had his own I-864A/ you attempted to list him as a dependent. RFE says that the only allowed legal dependents are the ones listed on IRS...so if he wasn't, you can't list him. Additionally, the criteria to who is a qualified household member does not extend to your husband. 

     

    So, I'd suggest do the OR (last paragraph of page 1). It's the easiest way out. 

    @Rocio0010 @ROK2USA

    Oh wait I see what's the confusion. So in the first page (second pic) the crossed out names are my mom's and my dad's name, not mine or my husband. They both were the only ones to fill out form I-864A. I filed I-864 as the sponsor. 

     

    And thank you! Yes, I believe it's the easiest way out just doing the OR 😂 sorry, I'm overthinking this so much

    1. If you no longer “ live with” your parents , they cannot do an I-864 A ( as household members)…BUT they CAN do an I-864 as Joint Sponsor. 
     

    2. The qualifying income on your taxes is ONLY the part that YOU ( the USC earned ) see your W-2 and your husband’s income cannot be used to qualify unless he had a work authorization ( example DACA, H-1 works visa etc)..

     

    So you can just respond with a short letter stating , what you are enclosing 

     

    1.We still live with my parents in the same apartment and share utilities.

     

    2. I have a rental house and a part time job so it's pretty much only my income that's in the taxes. 

     

    I think you're right. I'll add a letter along with evidence, just in case lol

    He shouldn't be. Even the RFE is telling you to prove that. That's where the problem is.

     

    Lemme call @JeanneAdil. I think she's good at this area

    Thank you so much! 

    My husband didn't sign form I-864A. The ones that signed were my parents. 1 form for my dad and another form for my mom as they both are my household members. My husband didn't sign anything.

     

    So far I'm thinking of sending our driver's licenses (parents and I) to show proof of shared address and will send my birth certificate with my parents name and mine to show proof that we are related. Plus will send an updated I-864 with my recent taxes and I-864A. What do you think?

    You submit what they asked for.  

     

    So for parents to be considered as household members you either need to be listed on their taxes (you aren't right?) OR you submit proof they are your parents and you share an address.  Your birth certificate with their names shows relationship. Driver licenses can show shared address. 

     

    You can also send your most recent taxes (2021) along with an updated 864 and 864a. 

    Thank you so much, I really appreciate your help 🙏

    If you can't delete your previous post due to forum time limits for editing you can use the report button on the top of the post and ask the mods to delete it for you ok? :)

     

    Please re read the 2 scenarios. In scenario 1 the household size is 3. Using dad as a household member means you only include dad. This is the best option. With your assets (30k in bank) and dads income (25k)+ assets (67) you should qualify. 

     

    Scenario 2 would be your 864 showing assets that won't be enough. Adding Dad as a joint sponsor on a second 864 would be for him, mom, 2 kids and immigrant. Size 5. 

     

     

     

    Hi, I received RFE for affidavit of support. Could you please advise what would be better to do? 

     

    They're asking for evidence to proof my household members (parents) and I are related and that we live in the same house. What should I submit for it? Also I filed 2021 taxes and make above poverty line..should I send my tax return as well, just in case ?

  10. Hi ! 

    So my husband (beneficiary) and I (petitioner) received this RFE for AOS.

    Short story long, we filed form I-864 and form I-864A with my parents as we lived with them. They sent us this RFE (attached) but now we don't need their affidavit anymore as we finally filed our taxes and made a bit above poverty line. 

     

    Should I just submit our taxes and a letter explaining that we no longer need my parents? Or if it's easier what should I submit of proof that my parents are my household members and that we are related? 

    IMG_20220801_150005.jpgthis is 2 page

    Is your mom prepared to move back to Ecuador to live with the child after she has been adopted? Because that might be the only way she can live with her as a parent. If the adoption is only something she is prepared to consider if she can bring the child here, then the first thing to do is see an immigration lawyer to see if this is even possible given the child’s circumstances- it may not be. 
     

     

    Thank you! I'll def look for a lawyer as I believe time is running out unfortunately 😓

    In the first post you claim that your cousin is 6 years old. In the above post you say your aunt (mother of the 6 year old) passed away in 2012. This year is 2022. Lot of inconsistencies in your story. It is none of my worries! I am just pointing out the discrepancies!

    Oh man! Yes, she's going to be 10 this July 😅 For some reason all of my younger cousins are still 6 years old in my head 😂😂😂

    From OP's other posts it appears that the mother in question is a USC or LPR, living in the US, as dad and mom were joint sponsors for her husband's K-1 process.

     

    For OP, assuming that your question about your mom adopting her niece is related to bringing your cousin to the US legally, you need to invest in two experienced attorneys--one in the country where your cousin lives with her father (assumed as Ecuador but not sure), and one in the US.  This is not a DIY case.  The first question for the US immigration attorney, on the first free consultation visit, is can your mom even do this.  No need to spend thousands for legal fees for two attorneys in each country if the plan is not even possible.  What about your cousin's mother?

    Thank you and the previous poster for the quick reply. I'll only answer this as I don't want to hijack the original poster. 

     

    Long story short, my little cousin is the daughter of my mom's sister (my aunt) but she passed away when she was just months old (back in 2012)..and my cousin's dad is my father's cousin (3rd degree?) they're very close.

    My parents pretty much help him out financially with school and things like that and take care of her whenever they go back to Ecuador. 

    Thank you everyone for your answers! I see how this could be a very extensive and difficult process 😔
