I am looking at petitioning my father to the US, unfortunately my income does not meet the poverty line, I am married and my husband and i have always filed a joint tax return. I have been the “official Breadwinner” in our household ever since my husband returned to school full time, he works at the hospital every Saturday but that still won’t let us qualify to meet the poverty line, however we do receive Monthly Housing allowance from the GI bill and also almost 600 in VA disability. Can we use these as additional income even though these aren’t taxable? And do you have any other suggestions I can do to qualify? Please help. Thanks everyone!

Hello

I mailed my petition March 30st and they received it April 1st, so im guessing i can be an April filer too?? Tried adding myself to the list, but i think i messed it up a little, so anyway here is my update so far.

03/31 - filed I-751

04/01 - Packet received by VSC

04/02 - date of NOA

04/12 - date of Biometrics Letter

04/30 - Biometrics Appt.

xoxo.

Will you be including pictures as well? Wedding photo ie.

no i am not, it is not really necessary right now, but its probably upto you if u really want to send some wedding photos, but u can go ahead and file ur aos package w/o wedding photos and later on when they call u up for an interview, u can bring them along

Send a letter,you need to mail em your vaccination record from your foreign country anyway.

Write a check that is fine.

Thank You
