choochoo

thanks for your help!

I called NVC last week and they told me to put individual income. So, on I-864 question 25 you will put your wife's income and then on I-864 question 24b, you will put your income there. And then, on I-864A, you will put your individual income

hello

actually i am working on the same thing right now. and i have similar questions but i can answer some of your question.

Question#8 on I-864 you have to go with YES. becasue you are the primary sponsor. and your husband will be the supporting sponsor(i-864A).

Question #25 i have the same question. me and my wife are filled jointley. do i have to put her w-2 income or do i have to put our joint income. If i go with Adjusted gross Income(AGI) on tax form than it will be the same for i-864 and i-864A.

for your last question in I-864A you just change the name and of intending immigrant in question 13 A and leave everything same.

i am looking for some asnwer to income question too.

i own convenient store and my wife works under me and she does not have enoght to be a sponsor. so i am backing her up with my store profit which goes to me. for example wife income W-2 about $4500/year. my income W-2 aobut 11,000/year. but my yearly income with profit is between $50,000 to $85,000 on tax paper. this is just a example i am not putting my real income.

how do i put this on i-864(Wife) federal tax information and i-864A(ME) federal tax information . how do i put this in 3 years income. all my 3year income are similar.

do i put our joint income or do i have to break it-down to w-2 and put saperate income for i-864 and i-864A.

thanks in advance.

Hi,

I know this isn't the right spot for me to post question about parents application but I haven't received a response in the NVC forum or the family based forum either.

Hopefully you all can help me since you have to fill this form out for spouse application as well.

I have filed for both my parents and the case is now at NVC. I am working on the I-864 and I-864A (my husband is joint sponsor).

I have a few questions in regards to both forms:

I-864:

Question #8: I currently DO NOT work and my husbands income will be used to support both my parents. Do I put yes or no? Do I also check box question #9 and list my other parent in box A?

On question #25 it wants the total income. Since my husband and I file jointly, do I put OUR total income for all 3 years or do I ONLY put my indivual income for all 3 years?

Also, do I just make 2 copies of the exact I-864 form that I fill out or do I fill out 2 separate ones for each parent and just switch the names of parent on the pertaining questions?

I-864A:

Question #11: same question as above, does my husband now put total income for himself or OUR total income on tax transcipt as we filed jointly?

Quesstion #13: my husband will put both my parents name in A and B, correct?

Also, do I just make 2 copies of the exact I-864A form that I fill out or do I fill out 2 separate ones for each parent and just switch the names of parent on the pertaining questions?

Thanks all!

Hey,

Quick question. When filing for both parents, should you have 2 sets of the same documents? I know I need to fill I-130 for each parent, but should I make 2 separate stacks with the same documents for each? Also, should they go in separate envelopes when I mail or can I put them together?

Hi all,

I have a family member who had her interview today in Islamabad, so i thought it might help some of you here. She got the visa. They told her to pick up the visa from some place in about a week. They didn't even ask her any questions. Only asked if she had wedding pictures, but didnt even look at them. They didnt ask for any documents either. Her husband was there with her and they also have a baby which was there with them too, so maybe thats why they didn't question or put on AP. Hope this helps with some of you guys that have interviews coming up. Inshallah none of us will get on AP. Good Luck!

Yes, we are not. My husband has his interview 30th this month. I was just trying to figure out the trend. Hopefully i hope he doenst get AP. Good luck on getting your visa!

Thanks,

Hi,

can i ask is your spouse applying for the visa - male or female? Also, when was your interview? Just trying to figure out how long you guys were on AP.

I know this wont give me any idea for our case because every case is different but still just seeing what the trend is.

thanks,

dhobee congrates

have u got ur passport??????????????/

Rabi,

Did you get to reschedule your interview? I hope things are working out for you!

Salam all,

Who all has interview coming up? Just trying to see if anyone has one soon or even in the month of december?

My husband got his visa today, after waiting for 15 days for AMEX to call. He has a cr-1 visa but it says its only good for one year residence. I thought a cr-1 was good for 2 years. Does anybody know if it should be for one year or two? If its suppose to be for 2 years should we mention it at the port of entry?

Hi, it should be for 2 years. Maybe you should call the embassy and ask them before incase they tell you to bring it in to fix.

Can you tell me when your husbands interview was and if and how long the AP was for? Just trying to get ideas of what is happening over there. Thanks alot! and good luck!

Well we emailed them regarding our interview date and also about the police report. The thing is the interview letter says to bring the originial police report but we had already submitted the original to NVC. So, wanted to ask them and make sure if we should get another made or not. Well, i didnt get a reply from them today so hopefully by tomorrow. I emailed that PakIVQuery email address, is that one fine?

Hey guys,

For those of you that have emailed the embassy, how long do they usually take to reply your email?

thanks,

If you IV visa online says NOT PAID that means you CAN pay it now. The only reason you couldnt pay it was if it said NOT INVOICED. Since it says NOT PAID that means NVC accepted your choice of agent thats they have generated your IV bill meaning you can pay it. Go ahead and pay it now and send off your ds-230 form and supporting documents. good luck!

Thanx for ur reply.My wife is just waitnig for me badly coz she needs me, shes not well.

CO gave me blue slip in which he mentioned me the original Translated marriage certificate and he also showed me the green slip and he said besides it your case also need some administrative processing. He said you have to send us the original translated marriage paper.

Green slip was for AP and blue slip was for missing document.He also asked abt my passport.

So he put me on AP and as well as in missing document.

What u can tell me abt it.

Waiting for ur response.

Sibtain

If you dont mind me asking but is your last name common like Khan or all those other ones? I know there is no specific reason to AP but I hve heard some people say this matters too. Interviews have become more scary then exciting these days because we dont know if we will get AP or not. I realy hope you will get your visa soon. good luck

Hey guys, thanks for the replies!! Well am not really a virtual person so don't know how to do the timeline or where to go but i'll give you a brief summary right here

First thing first, I'm waiting on my sis-in law not husband, thank God LOL.

*So around oct 11, 2007 we filed for 3 members of our family a marrige visa. (so three diff applications)

*March, 2008 is when they notified us and said all three were approved

*I don't know about the process in between, but yada yada all three were granted their interviews in sept 2008.

*Two members got their visas the day of the interview (the passport was kept and a week later mailed to them)

*one sad member was put on AP and according to DOS office she was granted her visa on the Oct 14th.

*On oct 28th bro in law dropped off her passport at the ISL office and was told that it would be mailed back w/in a week.

*it's been a week and no response, now i'm wondering if dropping off the passport rather than waiting for the phone call would affect the time? He spoke to the people and they seemed fine with taking it. But I'm worried I hope they don't lose it.

I hope that helps many of you. And good luck to all those waiting on Ap and interviews. My prayers are with you

Thanks for giving us the overview. That helps us alot out in someway or the other. I hope inshallah your sis in law will get the passport back very soon. Quick question though: the other 2 that got approved and visa in a week, were they male or female? I hope that doesnt sound strange but a lot of the times we noticed that males were getting put on AP but if the 2 family members of yours were male, then that will give alot of us hope. Especially me and my husband. Thanks again!

Hey salam everyone. My questions keep being ignored

I understand I'm not your efriend yet, but dude help a sista out.

How long does it take for them to send your passport back after they receive it? We've waited for over a week now and no news. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I believe Revived answered your question but could you please fill out your timeline? Usually people are able to answer better if they know the timeline and history behind the case. If you dont mind but i think it would be realy helpful to all ofus if you share a little about your case. Like if you were put on AP? Or did you they keep your passport at the interview? Lots of people lately have been put on AP lately and there are alot that have interview coming up, so your experience would be helpful to all of us. good luck on getting your passport back soon!

thanks!!!

ok so my case at nvcwill be completed in a week or two since we have sent the entire package at once.

can anyone gimme an idea on how i can get the interview date? over the phone? and will i be able to get the interview date for dec?

it will be done by 15th of nov for sure

Once case is complete, NVC will schedule your interview date. You can call them once completed and ask them if you have been given a date yet and they will tell you when and what time it is. Even if your case is completed by Nov 15th, it is not neccessary that you will be given a december interview date. The reason for that is because Islamabad has limited capacity. They give NVC the count of how much capacity they have for that month and they schedule based off of that. So, if that gets full once they get to your case, then you have to wait for the second week of the following month to find out when your interview will be for the next month after that. The reason i know this so well is because we went through this same #######. Our case was completed Oct 16th while they were still scheduling interviews for November. But, we were not given a November date because Islambad's capacity was met. Therefore, we had to wait till now to find out our interview for December. Anyways, I hope you can get a December date because I know how much this waiting sucks. But, there is always a good reason behind why Allah does things. So, there must be a good reason why we were given a December date.

Good luck on getting a december interview!!

yo!!1 found out last time that my case got completed at nvc on the 4th of nov already:)

i am so hhapppppy

they said they will start giving the interview dates next week so call us next week!!!!

i am so happy!!!!!!!

now i have a fair chance of gettin an interview date in dec i think!!!!!!!!! i wanna know one more thing!!!! do they put females on ap?

i am so worried

":[

GOOD!!! Worrying for nothing. You have a very good chance of gettin a december interview now. GOOD LUCK!!

hey!!!! ur interview date is the 30th of dec? that means dec is full too? or no?

how long did it take for u to find out abt ur interview date?

i dont know why does it take so long to get an interview date?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

its been 4 days my case got completed and am still waitin for it to be sent to isl.

hey!!!! are u a male or a female?!

Yes, our interview is set for Dec 30th - my husbands. I dont know if that means it is full or not. But by your recent post i saw that you didnt get a december date, i guess that meant it is now full. I am soo sorry but i know exactly how that feels. Our case was complete on Oct 16th and they were still scheduling for November but we didnt get it b/c it was full. But dont worry, you will get a January date for sure. It just sucks because you will have to wait till first/second week of December to find out when it is in January.

Good Luck!

Has anyone here heard anything about NicoleX?

Shpat: Are you really working hard? like 15 hours per day. I don't see you much or you don't like us anymore?

Is Baby in the US now?

Master, Are you happy while you are so close to interview and youcan see you hubby after a long time?

Ilya, Are you cool?

Martina, Happy that this is an end for you with big parties.

Choochoo, you are there and just couple more days.

MsZ, Any updates?

CHD, You are done almost.

Its really nice to see all of us are still around and chit chat. Thank you guys

Thanks... found out little while ago they sent it off to the embassy yesterday. I guess it's included in that 5 pound package. lol. No more calling NVC now. YAY!! Instead it will be the embassy.

Our interview was scheduled on Oct 30th and till today they still havent forwarded our case to the embassy. They just keep saying we will send it soon! This is so annoying. Anybody know how long it usually takes them to send it to the embassy. We called the embassy and they said they will reschedule us for an earlier date but they cant do that until they have the file because dont even see our case number in the system.

Should I possibly try to speak to supervisor to send it off since it has been a week now and they still havent sent it? I asked them yesterday to speak to one but they wouldnt let me.

ChooChoo, if they have already scheduled you for an interview, then don't worry and they will send it off to embassy ASAP. My case was expedited but it took them a week. Depeneds how many cases are going to that embassy per day or per week. They will try to ship as much as they can to save the money. I know its frustrating for you and everyone else but we are almost done and we should wait little more. You should definitly call them up and ask for supervisor and follow up with the case.

Good Luck

Thanks alot, i really hope they send it off soon. Funny thing is that since there has been packages sent off 3 times already since our interview been scheduled. So, not sure why they wouldnt have just included in those packages. Well, DHL website just got updated and another package was sent today. And today it was 5 pounds, so maybe ours is in today shipment. I will call again tomorrow and find out I guess. Thanks again!

Yes i m going on the CR1 route but inshaAllah will get IR1 coz we have celebrated our 2nd aninversary.No i did not take any privious vaccination or medical reports for the medical coz i had nothing,and its ok if u have nothing.

I cannot tell u exactly which vaccinations would be required but i noticed they gave the similar vaccinations to approx to all.

Just relax and dont worry everything will be fine and there is nothing for u do to in advance.

Best of luck..

Ok, great! Thanks so much...

Salam to everyone!

Today was my medical.I got four injections of vaccination & X ray.Every thing was fine and they only charge Rs.8825.

The experience was very good.

Here is a question that i m on expidition request coz my wife is not well so will they put me AP in this cirumstances while theyalready expidite my case?

Best of luck for all

Hi,

I noticed your are going on the CR1 route as well and had a question on the medical. Did you have to take your vaccination records to your medical? If not, how did they know which vaccinations you need?

I am just trying to figure out what we need to do before the medical? Do we need to find out about prior vaccination records before the actual medical or can they check there which vaccinations you need?

Thanks,
