Hey guys, Posting on my friend's behalf to see if anyone has any experience with a familiar situation. So, here’s the story: my friend got married back in 2017 and unfortunately marriage took a sad turn and while her I-130 and I-485 were pending, she has filed for I-360. In 2020 her petition was approved by USCIS, but there have been no changes with regard to I-485. In 2021 she received an interview notice for I-485, which she attended with her lawyer, but still, there have been no changes/updates at all. Now she is searching for another attorney in hopes that someone will handle the case better and just last week, this new attorney that she is thinking to hire told her that after reviewing her documents - she has to file separate I-485 in order to receive a green card. His theory is based on the fact that the original I-485 was marriage based and will not go further until she files a new one based on I-360 approval. Not sure if I have presented everything in an understandable/clear manner but I hope you get the idea. Any ideas/suggestions are highly appreciated. Thank you!

Hey guys, My mother had just recently had her N-400 interview. She passed the test, but since her trips within the last 5 years outside the U.S. were about 800 days, he requested additional evidence to make sure she did not abandon her residency. In the letter one of the suggested proof is: Your immediate family remained in the U.S. I am thinking of ways to provide this evidence and can't think of anything other than my lease agreement and tax returns, but not sure what would be the most effective way to get this done. Has any of you guys had similar experience or do you have any suggestions? Any feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you for making this crystal clear. Your answer directly addresses my issue and is exactly what I was looking for. Much appreciated!

Thanks for response. Just trying to wrap my head around this - so if I'm getting this correctly - joint sponsor has to fill out both I-864 and I-864A? Just as a side note - joint sponsor is not married nor has any dependents. That's the tricky part - joint sponsor is single, not married, no children and no dependents. I am not sure why 864A was requested..

Hello guys, I am having a little confusion regarding my spouse’s IV documents and hoping that you can in a position to navigate me through this process. So recently my spouse had IV interview at U.S. consulate overseas and CO has asked for updated financial documents to be submitted via NVC portal. When we originally submitted documents to NVC they were 2020 docs and it is totally understandable that they are asking for 2021 instead, but they have also asked for I-864A. Now here is where I get confused: Here’s what I have submitted before (2020): My I-864 (petitioner) & W2’s (my income was low and we have used one joint sponsor) Joint Sponsor’s I-864 & his W2’s This year I was my father claimed me as dependent in his taxes because I had no income. My spouse presented these updated documents (I-864 and 2021 taxes) during his interview, but CO asked all of these docs to be uploaded on NVC and I’m not sure what triggered requesting I-864A but either way I’m not sure what should I do. Joint sponsor’s updated income didn’t change much and he is single on taxes, claims nobody so I have no clue how I-864A came into play. Who should fill out this form? Is it supposed my father because I'm claimed on his taxes even though I'm not a main sponsor? I am pretty confused and any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you in advance guys!
