Omg, thank you everyone. This saved me, I would have submitted the wrong one.

Hi Pushbrk, I'm not good with tax forms so I will post images. https://postimg.cc/xkwNhw7G https://postimg.cc/rdBR3Bbx Is there anyway to post images? Or is posting links allowed? The 2 links above are tax transcript and 1040 for 2024.

I forgot to clarify that the tax return numbers are taken from the site I did my taxes.

Tax Transcript shows: Adjusted gross income: $46,741.00 Taxable income: $25,713.00 Tax per return: $9,961.00 SE taxable income taxpayer: $46,446.00 SE taxable income spouse: $0.00 Total self employment tax: $7,106.00 Return due date or return received date (whichever is later): 04-15-2025 Processing date: 05-12-2025 The above is all numbers dealing with amount, rest is just dates and personal info. Tax Return shows: Line 9 is amount of 50,294$ Line 11 is amount of 46,741$ I thought line 9 amount of 50,294% would show up on tax transcript but I couldn't find it. Something must be wrong. Should I just enter $46,741 for I-864?

Hi guys, Which number should the petitioner enter as income for i-864? Line 9 from tax return or adjusted gross income from tax transcripts?

Thank you for clearing things up. Much appreciated.

Hi Gabriel, Thanks for the input. My dad usually sleeps at both his work and the place I live at. All his mail comes to the location I’m at. I forgot to add that my wife owns a home abroad and has 2 cars under her name. It’s getting more scary out there. But I have a clean record. I have asked around for joint sponsors but no definitive yes, my American friends have never dealt with this before so it’s completely new stuff for them.

Hi guys and gals, I am sponsoring my wife and stepchild. It says that for 2025, income requirement for 125% of family of 3 is about 33,000. Past 3 years I have made the following: 2023 - 41,014$ 2024 - 50,294$ 2025 - 43,000$(roughly, not filed yet). The numbers above are from line 9 of tax return. my income source is mainly from Uber/Lyft and some in cash. Is this enough or will I get denied? right now I live in Philadelphia. I only have 3k in savings(over 2 months). I can save up to 10k but it’s only about 6 months old during the interview. I read that it needs to be 1 year at least. Should I continue to save? how does I-864A work? If I file for family of 3 now then I can’t ask for my dad to file I-864A later?

Married first visit, first time together was almost 2 years

I don’t know how to use the timeline thing as I’m on mobile. China.

Hi guys, I want to visit my spouse overseas, I’m thinking 13-15 days. Is this long enough? I’d assume longer the better but the petitioner also have to worry about income requirements.

I can’t express in words how much I wish to thank you. I got so paranoid I even thought about applying for jobs at consulate if worst possible happens. 🙏

Hi appleblossom, I filed both I-130s for my wife and stepdaughter at the same time. Now the case is at NVC, need to send in my 864 and tax info. I read that amends take a while. Does anyone know if IRS website's tracking of "amend received" is suffice for NVC? Or do I have to wait until amend is done. I know if I don't prove that I amended, NVC will likely RFE.

I know I will probably get an RFE if I only upload my tax returns(since it says I filed single) to NVC, should I wait for the amended tax return or can I send in photos of 1040x before I send it to IRS?

Will the tax return transcripts change? Or will the Consulate still see that I initially filed as single? I don't really mind the money, I just want to be with my wife.
