Let me start with a lil' background story.My fiance,a USC came to live with me in Nigeria in Feb 2008 and we got married in August 2008 and because we didn't know much about immigration we didn't start the procedure until September 2009 about the birth of our daughter.We sent off the I-130 in September 2009 and we got an approval in Feb 2010.All the while my husband was with me here in Nigeria,but his parents and younger sister were in the US.We decided he would return to the US as soon as our case got to NVC cos it's was really hard to decide to live apart.While he was in Nigeria he wasn't working and so we relied on just my income but we were comfortable as long as we were living together.And so in July after paying the AOS fee online my husband headed off to the US.He filled the AOS forms already and got his dad and mom to both fill the I-864A cos he's living with them.they will send off the AOS on Monday.But what we discovered is that we only filed 1 I-130which we assumed covered our daughter and i but apparently we were wrong so my husband sent off another I-130 on the 26th of July for my daughter which the post office confirmed that it was received at USCIS on the 1st of August.But to our surprise my husband hasn't received the NOA1 till now.He called the yesterday and the person he spoke with said they do not even have it in their record cos the money order he sent is not in their record.What can be the problem?I really want our applications together so we can have our interview together cos shes just 18mths old

For me i never knew that we were suppose to fill another Form I-130 for our daughter,NVC sent the invoice for the $400 dollar payment and we were wondering why our daughter's was not included with mine and when we called they said we have to file another form I-130 for her.The challenge now is "are we going to interview at different times cos she's only 16th months.

My daughter was born here in Nigeria and she is in Nigeria with me,the last time my husband was in the US was in March 2008 when he got his citizenship but before then he was a PR always traveling to and fro US cos he was in School in Nigeria

Yeah i know that as the primary sponsor he gets to fill the I-864 but does his dad fill the I-864 too or he fills the I-864A considering the fact that they all live together.and whis one does his mom fill the the I-864 OR THE I-864A

My USC lives with his parents in the US,and his parents file their taxes jointly and add him and his sister as dependents.Which of the AOS does each one of them fill?Am a bit confused with the I-864 AND THE I-864A

Hi all,my husband is a USC but all in all he hasn't lived in the US for up to five years.Can we notify the US embassy in Nigeria of the birth of our daughter so that they can issue her an american passport?

My husband is a USC and he has filed the i-130 for our daughter and I. Our petition was approved and a case number assigned.We paid the AOS fee recently but we have a challenge!MY USC husband has been with me in my home country since we got married 2yrs ago,without a job therefore he hasn't been filing his tax.He intends to go back to the US NEXT MONTH SO HAS to get a job but in the meantime how do we fill the AOS?His father who is a USC is also ready to sponsor us

Thanks,i just stumbled on a piece of information.'Intent on establishing domicile'.My husband intend to go back to the US next month, how will he proof that he intends to establish domicile in the US?Then can we still use the tax return he filed in 2008 and the ones before even though his father will co sponsor my daughter and i?

Thank you so much this has been very helpful.We don't have the AOS at hand right now cos we paid the $70 dollars early March and we are still waiting for the AOS by mail.My husband intends to go back to the US in June though so as to accelerate the whole process.His parents are US citizens.

My husband is a Nigerian trained lawyer,he isn't making so much.

What kind of reason can he give?He filed for our daughter too.

His parents are domiciled in the US and they are ready to sponsor us too

Just so i understand you,What is USC?

Hi all

I am Nigerian but my husband is an American citizen who has been living with me in Nigeria since we got married about 19months ago.We now have a daughter who is about a year.My husband filed the I-130 for us in Oct 2009 and it was approved recently and we were advised to pay the $70 for AOS which we did.But considering the fact that my hubby has been in Nigeria for the past 3yrs and hasn't been filing his tax return,we are at a loss as to how to complete the AOS.Kindly advice us on the way forward
