Applied in Guayaquil for I+130, said was approved, waiting on background check. Just got a call, we need you to return for fingerprints. (I am the U.S. citizen applying for my wife Green Card DCF)

Why would they want this, Is it random?

Went to consulate in Ecuador, approved I-130 application, but, said I need co-sponser because I have been out of country (USA)for more than one year. New rule.

My brother will complete an I-864 also for me as a co-sponser. When I look at the form: Item 24 "D" and "E"

not sure what they mean here. Can anybody help me? thanks, Joe

I receive social security benefits not taxable + veterans disability benefits not taxable. I have docs to show this.

However on the I-864 form block 25 it only gives you (2) choices, neither applies to me. A. I have filed last two years or B.(optional) I have attached photocopies.

If neither applies, what do I put and where? thanks, Joe

Hope someone can advise on this: I will be filing for DCF in Ecuador. I-130 - I have been divorced 3 times, have the last 2, but no document from divorce in 1980. Will this be a problem? thanks, Joe

I-130

The addresses in part B2 and C2 are current address (in Ecuador).

C18 - The actual address where you will live in the US. (You need to establish as US domicile as part of this process. See this link for help >> http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3183.html )

C19 - Current address in Ecuador

You do not complete DS230, only the immigrant.

DS 230 line 13 = present address (Ecuador)

line 30 = All places that the immigrant has lived since age 16.

I-864 I gave you the answer in previous post about your income tax filing. The responsibility is on you to prove why you are not required to file a tax return. Use the address of the domicile that you establish in the US.

As suggested in the DCF guide, contact the Consulate in Guayaquil to learn what they expect. Each embassy/consulate operates a bit differently. Guayaquil is known to be tough for fiance(e) petitions. I do not know how they are for DCF petitions.

Thanks , That was incredibly thorough, however, on the top of the DS 230 form it says "one for yourself and one for each member of your family" thanks again, Joe

I really need some help with my specific questions. the example forms did not help me. Maybe I R dumm. Can anybody help? I will be happy to pay for advice. Joe

Hello, I have searched for help, but no luck. Maybe somebody here can help me. I would very much appreciate it.

I am a disabled veteran living in Ecuador for (1) year. Before that I lived in Colombia for (4) years. I lived with a Colombian lady in Colombia and married her here in Ecuador. (tons of docs, but finished) I will receive pemanent residency in about 2 more months (all docs approved and waiting) I plan on filing for DCF, I-130 for my wife.

The addresses on the forms has me very confused. Because of my disability, I am trying to reduce the amount of trips I have to make to the Consulate.

Facts:

I have a valid georgia drivers license. but with the address of my previous home that I sold.

I forwarded my mail to a mail forwarding address in Miami (so my taxes, u.s. bank, show this address)

I have a couple of friends who will give me a lease agreement or use their address in the U.S.

I-130 - address in block 2 (my address here in Ecuador ? ) or?

address for my wife? same question

block 19 " your wife's address abroad ? same question

DS-230 - (need for both my foreign wife an me USC) block 13 "present address" ?

- block 30 - asks for addresses since you were 16 years old.

I have lived in approximately 100 locations in my lifetime , I am 66 years old.

father military and I military. (I have listed back to year 2000, think this is enough, or is problem?

I-864 - My income is a little Social Security and Military disability (+$42K)

Do I have to prove that IRS does not tax my Military disability, I do not file taxes. Or do they know these kinds of things?

#2 - Sponser mailing address ? My miami mail address or???

thanks a bunch in advance, Joe

Thanks in advance. I am really lost. Joe

I am an American living in Ecuador with my new wife. I am going to file DCF, on the I-130 it asks for my address.

Do I enter my permanent address in the U.S. or my address here in Ecuador.

#2. For my wife, do I enter our address here in Ecuador or mine in the U.S. ?

HELP. thanks, Joe

How critical are items like, birthdates of parents and how many marriages you have had before. I am 65, not known parents since 18 years old.
