So I'm about to send of my aos package and my iv package, should I send them in the same envelope or two seperate ones?

Also, I have one aos from my husband and one package from my mother in law who's my co sponsor, can those be sent in the same envelope and with the same bar coded cover sheet? Or two seperate?

what is in package iv, let me know

You can only file 2013 taxes in 2014, so of course 2013 tax transcripts won't be available, you haven't even filed that years' taxes yet!

 

To show proof of CURRENT income, send in an employment letter and pay stubs. Any W2s you send are for previous years, not the current year.

 

I'm not sure if it's before or after taxes, but if you're that close to the poverty line, you may want to consider a joint sponsor.

Thanks for reply

i did file taxes for 2012, 2011, 2010, so i will show income for 2012 and 2011.

 

but in 2012 and 2011 i did not make enough maybe around 10k per year 

in 2013 i made around 24k before taxes. so i was thinking about using the w2 for my current work which i should get it next week after December ends. 

the 2013 w2 will be enough to pass the i864 poverty line. 

 

 

so on my i864

i plan to use 2013 W2 showing i made around 24k 

and 2012 and 2011 income

 

plus i already got a letter from my management and signed saying that i plan to be with this company for a long time and 

i have been a dedicated blah blah.... for last 2years. 

 

 

what do u think 


rickkantMaleIndia2013-12-24 14:14:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - December 2013

so i went to Irs.gov to order my tax transcript, they have only for 2012 and before only, NO 2013 info 

any one knows when the 2013 gets available, 

is it after i file my taxes. 

 

when i send my i864 will W2 work for 2013 proof of income  

because i made good amount in 2013 and very less in 2012. 

 

also the poverty line question

I will have 2 people in my household, me and wife

so that $19864 limit , is it before tax or after tax i have to make . 

 

Thanks

Hi everyone!  I am working on the I-864 now while waiting to receive my case # and IIN.  I know not to leave any blanks.  However, when typing into the form on the computer it does not allow the "/" in N/A.  Can someone please tell me what they did.  Should I put N A and then add the "/" in black ink after I print it?  Thank you so much!


Iam starting preparation for NVC too today.
I ll see what answer u get. This will help me too.
Have u got ur case number assigned. Since it's more than 2 weeks

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - January 2014

So my question was missed, but how long on average does it take for NVC to assign case number and IIN number, the operator stated that it will take 10-20 days from the time they receive the case to get the case number.. Our case was received on Jan 13....

Mine was recieved by NVC on Jan 3rd and until today still no case number,

after looking at so many timelines it normally takes a month to get case number

Question On i-864

Part 6 Q5.

My current individual annual income is:

 

Iam slightly confused,

should i just put the 2013 annual income, lets says $20000.00 i made ( i got a 500 pay increase in October)

or the new total for 2014 annual income which would be $26000

 

$26000 sounds better, 

but should i put 2013 annual income or the newer estimated income $26000

 

Thanks 

 


rickkantMaleIndia2014-01-20 16:26:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - January 2014

still no case number yet but today when i called NVC, he said the case is getting processed,  

Some thing different then all the other reps  (normally all the reps say it has not been put in our system yet)

 

is it something to get excited about??

Ok here you are:

 

-email from NVC to pay AOS fee

-AOS payment by your husband

-I-864 docs mail by your husband to NVC

-IV fee to pay

-IV package sending to NVC (IN THIS PACKAGE MUST BE YOUR POLICE CLEARANCE, BIRTH CERTIFICATE, MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE, PHOTOS, COPY OF PASSPORT)

By the way if Police clearance not in English you MUST translate it.

 

So if all is ready you can send it to your husband now.
