Don’t even bother. Put 0 for everything. Less paperwork and less hassle. Their income doesn’t matter only yours.

As long as you have met once in the past 2 years you meet the requirement. Just make sure to submit plenty of evidence to prove your relationship. Plenty of couples have been approved in situations like yours. As long as you don’t have any other possible red flags like large age gap etc you should be ok. Just keep in mind its at the officers discretion so be prepared, and submit all required documentation.

1. You will need to fill out a separate I-134 for each of them if they are both applying for a visa through you. 2. Correct, she has 1 dependent. 3.correct, 0 dependents for you. 4. Yes. I was a bit more detailed putting “provide housing, food, health insurance, and any living expenses” 5. It’s always better to be over prepared than underprepared. If you’re income is well over the minimum requirement you should be good with the tax transcripts and a few months pay stubs though. I took everything to the interview to be safe and let them decide what they actually needed at document submission. I recommend taking 3 years tax transcript from IRS website, 3-6 months pay stubs, and a letter from work stating your salary. If you take W2s probably just the most recent year.

Currently trying to solve the "do i need to fill out I-693, or is my DS-3025 sufficient question. We opted to have all the vaccines administerd at the medical exam to avoid the headache and financial burden of paying for another exam in the US. However, in mexico they didnt have all the vaccines that are required. So for Example on the "Tdap" column for my wife they put "D" (not availible in-country) for the blanket waiver. Is this sufficient? If not, what is the best resolution? Do I have her get the vaccine administerd from a doctor here, then pay a CS to validate it? And my second question would be could I submit my AOS package anyways and deal with it later if I get an RFE? Reason being is that It would take a week or more just to get an appointmet and I am running out of time. The reason for my concern is becuase I am in a time crunch to get everthing submitted before April 1 to avoid fee increases. I have my wife and her 2 daughters so it would be a huge fee increase for us and I want to avoid that at all cost.

Don’t worry about the socials at all! I think it could only hurt you if you’re posting things on there that could incriminate you or make you non eligible for the visa. (Example: already married to someone else, criminal activities, terroroistic posts etc.)

Hey! Looks like Armenia schedules the interview for you. So I don’t think you get much choice in it. However it may be an option to call the consulate/embasssy directly and ask to be rescheduled at a later date. here’s where i got the info from: https://www.visajourney.com/consulates/index.php?ctry=Armenia&cty=Yerevan

Don’t over complicate it. Just take your average weekly income and multiply it by 52 and put that number for yearly salary.

Yes tell them to put it in form of yearly salary. (Even if you’re paid by the hour not technically salary) In all the guides and advice I’ve read it is always recommended to do it this way. Makes it much easier for the consular officer to see your salary, and se that it meets the minimum. so for example if you are making $1000 per week, then just have the write $52,000 yearly salary.

USCIS Filing Location (I-129F): To find the USCIS filing location, visit the official USCIS website or use a reliable search engine. Look for the specific address of the USCIS Texas Service Center or the appropriate filing location for the I-129F petition. Ensure you include this address on the first letter of intent that you'll be submitting. U.S. Embassy Address (Interview Location): Determine the country where your fiancé will have the visa interview. Visit the official website of the U.S. Department of State, particularly the section on U.S. embassies and consulates. Locate the embassy or consulate in the relevant country. Find the specific address for the U.S. embassy or consulate, along with any additional contact information. Letters of Intent: The first letter of intent should be submitted with your initial I-129F filing and should include the address of the USCIS filing location. The second letter of intent will be written when you are given an interview. Sign a similar document closer to the interview date to further prove your ongoing intention to marry.

Taking into account your specific situation, here are some additional details for your supporting evidence: Tax Transcripts: Include tax transcripts for the last three years, even if they are below the poverty line. This helps provide a comprehensive financial history. New Job Pay Stubs: Attach pay stubs from your new job this year, especially since your previous year's income doesn't meet the poverty guidelines. Include all pay stubs since you started the new job in October. Employer Letter: Ensure the employer's written letter contains your yearly salary rather than weekly or monthly pay. This is crucial for clarity. Explanation Letter: Consider writing a letter explaining that last year you were in school, which affected your income. This context can help clarify the situation for the immigration authorities. Asset Documentation: If you have assets like a savings account or retirement account, include documentation to showcase your financial stability. Remember to make clear and legible copies of all documents. Additionally, a cover letter summarizing your submission and expressing your commitment to supporting your fiancée during their stay can add a personal touch.

Thank you for the clarification

title basically says it. My beneficiary has a different address on the DS-160, and on my I-134. The reason is because she was living at a different address when we filled out each document. Is this going to cause an issue? What should I do if anything.

Sorry! My beneficiary’s interview. It seems like mine since I’ve spent so much time preparing all the documents hahaha! it was a dui, but got reduced to reckless driving. good to know. So I should be fine without having any court records of it? Because I’m already on the airplane lol

Petitioner

So when I submitted the I-129F on behalf of my fiancé I didn’t have any arrests so that’s how I filled out the application. But then sometime between NVC welcome letter, and now I ended up getting arrested. I now have my interview scheduled for next week. Is this going to affect me negatively at all? Do I need to take any documents or proof of the arrest.

Yes! My version does have my parental information on it

I am the petitioner!! So I am just now finding out that I may possibly need a long version of my birth certificate to take to the interview in ciudad juarez? in my I-129F I only submitted the short version along with a copy of my passport and our case was approved. now I am hearing people say that you need the long version? I don’t even know if they have those in Kentucky? anyways let me know if you all know, thanks.

I just checked. So did ours!!! Amazing. What do we do next 😫 pay fees and ds-160?

Not exactly sure what my case creation date was. They finally replied to my inquiry and gave me my case # last Friday, September 8th. my NOA2 was july 01, 2023

I’m transit today 🥳

I’m a little confused. Attached is the email o received with my case number today. am I able to take any next steps? Or do I have to wait for another letter. when can I fill out ds-160, pay fees and submit other documents?

I got my noa(2) on the exact same day as you, and I also submitted my inquiry on the exact same day as you. I just got my reply in my email about an hour ago. they gave me my case number, but no invoice Id. I don’t know if I have to wait to get that from the actually physical letter or what….

Got my case number today 🥳🥳🥳via inquiry email

Well, not my proudest moment. But I got a dui last weekend. I haven’t been to court or anything yet so I don’t have the final ruling. but I am a bit concerned it could cause some issues in the process. No any advice or experience would be greatly appreciated. to be clear I am the petitioner. We already have our noa2, and are waiting for NVC to give us our case number. what should I do, if anything?
