AOS and IV Application

I've been hearing that you should send them separately,but last week when I called NVC and spoke with an operator, I asked if I could have sent both together and if it would create problems, and he said it is fine to send together.
I mean, i sent my separately, but I was just curious....
anyway, he said it is ok, because they are being mailed to same address, with attention to CMR, same everything, so...

The DS 3032 is the choice of agent form. This form the beneficiary completes and generally will appoint the petitioner as the agent. That means that the petitioner will receive all correspondences from NVC.

The DS230 is a 2 part, 4 page biographical information form filled out by the beneficiary. The beneficiary will sign part 1 but NOT part 2

Good luck.

I have a question..If the beneficiary can email the DS 3032 to NVC, it means they don't need an actual signatue right?

Correct. They can just type up the info that's on ds 3032 form in the body of the email, and that's it.

This topic is obviously about mail delivery receipts and such.

I would not be satisfied with talking to any old agent next time I call, if I were you. Ask for a supervisor or whatever next time, nasty people always get what they want, so abuse your right to customer service and you should get your answer.

Photos for DS-230

Geez, has anyone really ever gotten an RFE because they didn't properly submit passport photos?!? I mean, seriously...
I understand if you get them the wrong size, exposure, or whatever, but they way you package them or if you forget to write name in the back of the photos? Really?
As far as I know, spousal visas are not being processed for same sex partners, so what if I send them pictures of me and my husband and do not write names in the back, what are they not going to know who's who?

I would like to give USCIS/NVC just a liiiiiiiiiittle more credit than that.
I think the petiotioners/applicants stress a little too much over nothing, just my two cents. Relax and just submit the damn thing.
Peace out!

Don't get me wrong, I am happy for you as much as the next guy, but...
Imagine you are a newbie, completely confused and you are having to search through dozens and dozens of (useless) topics before you find anything relevant.
I would just like to suggest that you post your happy news in an existing thread, it sure would make things easier. There are many threads "divided" by region, month in which you filed, etc... why not post your good news there where other people can benefit from comparison with your case, because then they can expect similar timeline?
I feel like I am being bombarded with "congratulate me" and "pray for me" threads, and I just think it is unnecessary.

I wanted to leave an update here for another poor soul who goes through this process, so that you may know how long it takes ...
We sent in W-7 application and tax return on 28.May, and my husband just received his ITIN yesterday, 26.June.
Just waiting on our tax return to be accepted now ...

What we sent in:

W-7 that husband signed and mailed to me - not notarized or anything

Certified copy of his passport biographical page

A statement which we both signed and dated in which we have written that we would like for husband to be treated as US resident for tax purposes
We also declared in that letter that husband is currently a student, that he had no job in 2008 and therefore no foreign income to declare.

Marriage certificate

Tax return (1040)

w-2 forms for me

Hope this helps, good luck!

arrrrrrrrgh those IRS agents are F-ing useless, what ever question you ask them they read something off of the information that you can see yourself online. I can read, I don't need you to repeat it to me lady, I am calling because it makes no sense to me, frickin' clarify it for me!!!!!!!!!

I am reading over the info that accompanies W-7 application, and it says that any visa information showing in the passport must be entered on line 6c.
My husband came to US only once in 2007 on a B1/B2 visa, which expired last year. He left before it expired, of course.
I called to ask whether I need to put that info onto W-7 even if it is expired because it is in his passport, or does that question pertain only to visas that are still currently valid.
The IRS lady did not know, she kept reading that script and at times sounded like yes I should enter it, but it was not clear at all... she was very mean.
I mean, it only asks for entry date to united states, nowhere does it ask for when he left US, so if I fill out the form like she is making it sound then it will sound like my husband entered US in July 2007, has not left, and expiration date on visa was August 2008.
I don't wanna cause confusion on that form to raise flags, but if it is important that I put the visa info, then I guess I should.
I am just so confused.

Dealing with immigration visas and taxes sucks, I am so ready to throw in the towel, I cannot deal with it any more, I am exhausted and no one can help when you call them, they just make you run in circles.

What should I write in on this damn W-7 application, should I just write NONE since his visa has long expired and he has not overstayed his visit, and just not think about it any more? I am so lost...

for all of you that decided to take the ITIN route, how long after sending in W-7 did you receive the ITIN?
I am mailing my W-7 tomorrow, so I was just wondering how long of a wait am I looking at....

Thanks!

my hubby received my ITIN 6 weeks after he mailed his Tax return with my W7 and a notarized photocopy of my passport..

thanks so much for your quick response!

i have somewhat of a stupid question regarding W-7.
It asks for mailing address and foreign address. Husband obviously has a foreign address since he never lived here, but I was wondering if under mailing address i should put my address here in the US, and put his address under foreign, so that all communication comes to me. Or is that not gonna fly?
What did you all put under those two questions? For right now the mailing address for him and foreign address we put same address (his address), but I was just wondering about that other option

i put our address in the US as the mailing address and my address here in PI as foreign address.

You rock! Thank you so much!

CR-1 process from those who have done it, or are almost there!

QUOTE (imaisha @ Jun 25 2009, 01:11 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

They will talk to either the petitioner or the beneficiary. When you call you'll have to confirm both of your names and dates of birth (and the case number of course).

As soon as you have your case number, call and speak to an operator and give them both of your email addresses. They will then email you everything rather than send a hard copy. This will save you weeks.

And yes you probably should make your husband the agent, assuming he'll be the one paying the fees.

It's really weird but we never called NVC to give them our case number. They must have gotten it from the cover sheet of our packet, because one day out of the blue they emailed us choice of agent form and invoice number...

DS-230 Question 35: List dates of all previous visits to U.S.

QUOTE (canadian_wife @ Jul 2 2009, 08:43 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Canadians do not need a visa to travel to the US. In the early years many times the CBP simply waived us through and we were never even stopped. I listed what I could remember to the best of my ability (I had a student visa as well and traveled numerous times on that). I attached a separate sheet of paper and simply said that I had traveled many times to the US and although not all visits are listed, I listed the ones to the best of my ability.

No RFE or questions or anything.

Good luck

I know sometimes NVC and USCIS people seem to us like blood sucking leaches, here to suck the life out of us for no reason, but they are actually pretty flexible. I had some holes in our documentation, and for everything where I was unsure about something (dates, places) I would make a statement and list what I knew for sure, and I would write: this information is true to the best of my knowledge bla bla bla
I would explain why I do not have exact dates (no one would have record for the last 30 yrs of travel, I think they are only concerned about maybe last 2-5 because who would work on fraud case longer than that, you know

)
And then sign the bottom of the sheet and write: I declare under the penalty of perjury that the information submitted is true and complete to the best of my knowledge. Copy the pages of passport where she does have dates, or find her travel info and that's it ...
In my humble opinion that should be enough, but you can always call NVC and speak to someone to ask for their advice what to do.

Best of luck to you!

Stressed over passport photo size!

QUOTE (goldfishfolife @ Jul 3 2009, 02:16 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Hello all! Just got married and I am back in the states to fill out for the CR1. I am working with a lawyer, they are filling out all my papers. One thing they told me is the passport photo of my wife needs to be 2in. X 2in. We had to take the photo in to make it a hair larger to cover that exact size. But in her original passport picture, her shoulders weren't all the way in. So what it seems(I am going to see the picture tomorrow) is that her shoulders are somewhat cropped. It shouldn't be bad, but noticeable. They say it will be fine and it happens all the time. But I am sitting up at 2 in the morning thinking about it. I am worried that they won't accept it, overall, its a fine picture, but it had to be a little wider. They are sending out the papers on Sunday, so I wanted to get some feedback on opinions. My wife is in Mexico, so its not the easiest thing to get another passport photo, but I hope its fine as is. Thanks! I'm off to bed.

I don't think they are that strict with photos, to be honest. My husband's photos were some kind of weird size, muuuuch larger than the photos I had taken here in the US and we didn't have any problems ...

But if it worries you so much, I mean she lives in Mexico, not some God forsaken country. It takes less than a day to take new photo and what... couple days for mail to arrive to US ?
Good luck either way!

I came to the US with K1 visa and didn't go back. What do I need to do now?

QUOTE (AngelnSteve @ Jun 23 2009, 11:15 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

From my understanding of the situation the course of action is clear (as you are well aware by now) you must return to your country of origin and go through the legal process as we all have to.

The majority (I would hope) of the visitors to this forum are law abiding people who find themselves many miles from their loved one/s (partner, kids, other family members) for a very uncertain period of time - many of us are extremely stressed as a result and have bent (and will bend) over backwards to comply with the rules, therefore sometimes we're prone to snap at something which seems a little untoward.

I have my own (perhaps judgemental) opinions on your situation (from the little you have written) but see no sense in joining the pack and ripping shreads out of you - I hope you will do the right thing and fix your predicament as we've suggested, it may not be easy for your family but it is your only sensible option.

You have yet to tell us what your country of origin is despite having been asked several times, also how soon after your original fiancee backed out did you get married?

And can anyone tell me what a MENA man is (mentioned in this thread)?

I was wondering the same thing...
My educated guess would be pple from Middle East/ North Africa region? yes? no?

I came to the US with K1 visa and didn't go back. What do I need to do now?

I just hope these two do not have children yet ...
Since he's put himself in a situation where he is staying here illegally, not working for 2 years and depending on wifey, I am assuming that he was not well off in his country of origin, which leads me to believe that the option for wife to accompany him to his country and work on visa from there may not be a feasible option.
If he leaves and there are children involved... poor babies living in a separated family because their parents did not think things through, were selfish or just plain ignorant or lazy to arm themselves with information about something so important as one's legal standing in US ...
I don't know, I just keep thinking and hoping that there are no children at this point ...

CR-1 Evidence of Relationship

QUOTE (AngelnSteve @ Jul 3 2009, 01:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Okay NVC have received our case from USCIS and I already have a near complete set of folders including various "evidence" of our relationship.. however upon reading various posts I'm a little confused as to what exactly I should have and who will want to see it?

Petitioner: US citizen (in US)
Beneficiary: UK citizen (not in US)
Married since: 08-08-08 and only lived together for just under 3 months (following marriage in US, though known each other many years).

So as the UK citizen:

1) Who will want to see this collection of photos, call logs, phone bills, boarding passes, cards (only a couple mostly used online), letters, letters from people who know us etc?
2) How many duplicates of this pack do I need (if more than one can I photocopy boarding passes etc?)
3) When will I need this prepared by?
4) Do I need to send my wife a pack also?

Sorry to ask what is probably a very tired question.

Evidence of relationship is given to USCIS, and you are already done with that process.
NVC stage deals with providing proof that you are able to support your beneficiary when he/she gets here.
Evidence of relationship may be needed again at the time of interview, but definitely not for the NVC phase, so you have plenty of time to get that ready.

Read the NVC guide, it's all in there

Hi,

I wanted to go to my wife's interview at ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN. I have only one week of vacation time. Does anybody knows how long it takes to get the actual visa. Does Amex send it to your home or you have to go and pickup the visa.

Thank you and best of luck to all.

Why not go and stay for the time you can. If you can bring SO back at the same time GREAT if not, you know they will join you soon.

This is what I am doing. I fly to Senegal on the 3rd and fly home on the 7th. I'm HOPING they will issue visa the same day (they issue on Tues & Thursdays and our interview is on Thursday the 6th), but if they don't then he'll get the visa on the 11th and fly home on the 12th.

Just my humble opinion.

Also Remo has an interview on Wednesday next week in Islamabad so we'll know soon enough

My reason to go to Pakistan is to bring her with me, otherwise it does not really work for me. I do not want to go if she is not coming back with me. Let see how Remo interview goes. Good Luck to Remo. I have noticed now a days they give the visa after at least one week delay through courier service. Thanks for the reply

Being there for her at the interview is a good reason to be there also.

I'm going not because my husband NEEDS me there but because it helps to show bonafide marriage.

Same here. It will be heart breaking to leave him behind yet again, but ... :sigh:
He'll be here in no time, I come back end of August, and he will follow either last week of September or early October.

QUOTE (Armin @ Jul 14 2009, 07:37 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Thanks dear friends.

I have already prepared every thing for NVC and maybe that's the reason I'm becoming frustrated.

The other issue is I was expecting NOA2 by late Aug or later but then I checked Vermont processing time and it says 5 month for I-130 and mine is already 5 months and 17 days... and counting... Do you think if goes into 6 month time, should I contact USCIS or it's a waste of time and maybe writing a letter to senator and explaining the situation might be of little help?

ps) hopefully so far things have been gr8 b/w my wife and I, knock on wood though

I remember when I was calling to check on our status they kept telling me that it takes 6 months for approval, so definitely once it hits the 6 month mark you can dig in with your teeth and request to speak with supervisors, senators, whoever ... Because their "standard processing time" IS 6 months as they state, before then you really don't have any grounds to request that they look at your case. 6 month mark, however, is a whole 'nother ball park
I wish I can be of help, but it seems all you can do for the next couple weeks is just wait...
At least you are all complete with NVC stuff, because that phase is a breeze if you got all documents ready!

I'm becoming frustrated with this process. Every day I check USCIS - though I have signed up for email notification - to see if there is any good news.
My wife is in Iran and you probably know about the situation there. I'm just praying to get her out of the country ASAP, safe and sound.

What can/should I do?

All you can do is wait. DON'T rely on the emails from USCIS. My case is already complete and I have an interview scheduled and the USCIS site STILL has the last info as of 3/5 when the NOA1 was generated.

Armin, I second this. Exact same thing is with my case, USCIS site is useless and so is their personnel.
However, you can research the next phase, prepare your documentation (birth certificates, marriage cert., taxes, financials,... do all the translations needed, etc. Be as ready for NVC as you can be by reading the guides and reading the forums.
Most importantly, work on your relationship with your wife, this process sucks the life out of you, my husband and I were so many times at a braking point since we started this process, we have never felt more distant to one another than through this process. At the same time, when we tried to make it better, then it was never as good as it was when we would successfully complete a part of it. So, just keep in mind to talk to her openly and calmly about everything and don't let the wait suck you two dry.
Good luck.
If you have any questions, PM me and I will answer to the best of my abilities. Husband and I are currently awaiting an interview...
Again, I wish you the best of luck!

I864 form

I don't think that the annual income you present on I-864 has got to match what's on your W-2.
Mine did not, because my W-2 shows my past income, and for annual income I wanted to show how much I will be making this year, so I got paperwork from my employer that shows my annual salary and I submitted some paychecks that show same bi-weekly amount I receive, so my annual income is not the same as what I earned last year (i.e. w-2).
So, I don't think that the problem with your I-864 is that the numbers simply don't match, you really should ask to speak to a supervisor and ask to clear that up for you what exactly is not jiving on your form...
Good luck!

Best,
LGG

I am not sure I understand your question ...
If you're filing taxes married jointly, then you both need to sign the tax return forms. At least, that's what I was told by IRS when I called and HR Blok reps I talked to.
Have you already received ITIN, or are you applying for one?
I sent my (well, ours

) 1040 form to my husband (beneficiary) to sign, and I signed also. He returned the form to me, and then I sent it in to IRS together with the W-7 application (husband signed), copy of his passport and W-2 to accompany the 1040 worksheets. I also sent copy of our marriage certificate juuuuust in case

No problems, just got our tax refund this week.
Hope this information helps you somewhat...

QUOTE (kerran @ Jun 9 2009, 06:18 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

...............
She then asked:

How did you meet?
How long have you been intimate?
When did you decide you wanted to get married?
.....................

Am I reading this wrong, or...?

No one else here posted that they have been asked this question in their interview

Congratulations to you!
Did you get your visa the same day, or is it gonna arrive later?

G325A question

Instead of waiting to get all your questions answered, fill out the forms, mail them to her and then wait to get them back, why don't you have her sign several blank copies and mail them to you right away. By the time you receive them you should be sure of everything, then just fill in the forms and send your petition. Plus, in case you make a mistake somewhere, it is good idea to have an extra copy or two signed by her, and then you can make last minute corrections before you send it of to USCIS.
Just an idea ...
