Edward and Jaycel

Ok cool... I had heard that making it out to USCIS can cause "Issue With Payment" problems

Just curious, who did you make the checks out to?

Jaycel's was in the lower right of her visa and the letters were red and started with a letter followed by 7 numbers We put "K-1 Visa Holder" Jaycel's was printed above her name on the I-129F NOA2 - Starts with an A and has 9 numbers after Yes It would be the date the officiating person (In your case the judge) signs it

Current Income for your household Yes - This is independant of the I-864. That's why the answers are in ranges as they want an overall picture of your finances as part of the determination of Public Charge Inadmissability. Yes - You should include it as part of the liabilities in determining the range of your liabilities This would be professional Certifications - Again this is part of determining the Public Charge Inadmissibility question. When they do this, they take an overall picture of your fianances, education and any professional certifications so they can make a judgement call on your prospects of being able to find gainful employment, not get sunk by a ridiculous amount of debt, your age, health, if you are prone to institutionalization at public expense, etc.

It’s pretty accurate as far as I can tell… come back and update this thread so that your experience can help others

For immigration purposes, the most recent tax year is 2023, until April 15th then the most recent tax year will be 2024.

Thinking the same since it’s looking for a “Reference Number” and the ROM we filed here does not have one of those

IMHO… She is a master manipulator and is being g coached what to say. She basically told you she needs you to stay married to her for immigration purposes. I hope you sent the withdrawal request for the I-130. Get with your attorney. Protect yourself. What happens to her is a result of the choices she made.

I can't get it to return any results... Our "Registry" number is ROM-SF-2024-XXXX. On the "Stamp Section" of the ROM there's also a sticker with a "DOC No." which is the same as our Registry No., a "Service No." (7 digits) and a "O.R. No." (6 digits). I've tried various combinations of all of them in different spots and I keep getting "No Match".

We just filed our ROM in December.... Let me see what I can see

Or if he withdrew the petition because she was scamming him.... Or if she was not eligible for a K-1 visa (not legally divorced from a prior marriage for example)

So I'd think the infidelity question would be an issue more of concern to you. The concerning part when you get to the embassy stage is if the ex withdrew the petition and ended the relationship because he discovered issues from her past that would cause her to be inadmissible to the US and thus be denied the K-1 visa at the interview.

Yes I was just about to ask which country also... but @Boiler beat me to it

It may cause additional scruitny from USCIS and/or the Embassy. It should also trigger extra scruitny from you. (Not in a bad sense... you just need to be aware because your girlfriend will have to be forthcoming with the embassy about this once it comes to the interview stage. She should be completely honest with you about it as well). It should not be cause for denial unless there is more to the story than it was just withdrawn following a breakup.

I sent a photocopy of my BC and my passport bio page and did not have any issues. The instructions specifically state to include a copy.

Let me clarify.... that is if you are owed a refund or have zero balance. If you have a balance due, they process your return in June and you can request a transcript in mid to late June

The IRS website says 6-8 weeks after they receive your paper return

No.... you select the 2nd option "Another individual who is the beneficiary" You skip part 4

The US citizen petitioner is supposed to fill out the I-134

This is just for the tax requirements. You also need to have proof of current income and that is done with payslips from your employer and an employment verification letter from your employer (The payslips are paramount for proof of current income and the letter is just a bonus)

So the first question is, has your spouse filed the I-130 petition for you yet? If not, the current timeline for the approval for that form is 15-18 months. You do not need to provide any financial details for sponsorship until after that form is approved and the case is sent to NVC. So you will most likely be looking at 2025 being the tax year in question and hopefully by that point a nice, solid job record to prove current income on the I-864 Affidavit of Support.

You need the tax transcripts OR the 1040s & W-2s, not both. Embassies prefer the transcripts. Make sure they are the TAX RETURN transcripts.

Great news!!

Let us know how it works out!

I have seen many timelines over the last year or two where Advance Parole takes so long that the GC is approved before the AP is adjudicated.
