Hey, for those of us that use Skype to call and those of us who use Skype to video chat with our significant others, I've got good news. Verizion has a few phones out now that are Skype usable. A couple blackberry models and the droid. I bought the droid 3 weeks ago and Skype wasn't available yet. Well today, I was able to download Skype. I called Vika using Skype on her cell, gave her my Skype address. She went to her laptop, put on her headphones, what do you know, now she can talk to me no matter where I am at all day, for free. Wait, darn it, now she can keep track of me to make sure that I am being a good boy. I might have just shot myself in the foot with this one. LOL. Good thing is, anytime she is a work, we are talking for free. I did remind her about the seven hour time difference and that I need my beauty sleep, so not too early. I figured I would just throw this out there for those who use verizon and have the compatible phones.

This thread needs some CPR and a defibrulater. Let's start dancing.


I have been using skype on my XV6700 windows mobile phone for 1 yr now, i also have a program that allows me to log into yahoo and chat with rhio also.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Affidavit of Support

Both you and the co-sponsor need to fill out a separate i-864 form. In Part 1 you check "petitioner" and he checks "only joint sponsor" (unless you have more than one co-sponsors). You also need to attach your tax transcripts, even if you have zero income.




Thank you :)

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Affidavit of Support
Hello Everyone!

I am very confused regarding Affidavit of Support, I'm petitioning my husband.

1) I have 0 income since i don't work.

2) A family friend is sponsoring my Husband

3) Which form do i fill?

4) Which form does the Sponsor fill out?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Affidavit of Support sent separately!!!

Did they print the Bar-coded cover sheet and also put your names and case# on every page. If not expect a delay since they have to marry up these documents.




Yes we both included the cover sheet and stapled all the papers together!

Hello again everyone!

I wanted to know if anyone else has done this or if anyone knows that is it ok to send your Affidavit of support separately? For example my joint sponsor sent out his paper work without including my I-864 form, so i had to send mine separately!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)UGHHH HELPP PLZZZ NVC!!

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/417050-nvc-filers-march-2013/

Go to the link. Read the first two posts and every link therein.

It'll be okay, stop stressing. Assigning an agent simply states who they send the information to but because they have both emails, they normally send it to both. It's an outdated form but is necessary for them to invoice the IV and make it so the beneficiary can send the IV package with the ds-230.

Thank you the link is superr helpful!!

You are required assign an agent. It does not have to be a lawyer. My husband assigned me as I am here in the US and it is easier for contacting purposes. The choice is yours, but you must choose. None is not an option.

After the affidavit of support there is still the DS-230. Once this is paid for online it can be sent in to the NVC as well. Once they have reviewed these things they will decide if they approve the case or not. Assuming they do and all goes well, you will receive an email from them telling you the next steps. OUrs took about a week after receiving everything, but that is just a rough time frame. That the case is done and waiting on an interview date. You can track this by calling the NVC and asking for a case update.

Good Luck with the final phase of your CR-1 journey! :star:

Thank you :)
Fatana AnsariFemaleIndia2013-03-27 09:12:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)UGHHH HELPP PLZZZ NVC!!

DS-230 is a different form, its not for choice of agent. DS 3032 is choice of agent form and you can email it using a template, you can find it on this site. Choice of agent has to be selected so they can contact this person for all communication, like interview letter and other things. The template is straight forward and i emailed it like everyone else and it was accepted. DS-230 has to be signed by beneficiary on page 2 only, its 4 pages. You send ds230 with police certificate and other documents. You track your case by calling. Did you pay iv fee? Its $230 and when it shows paid online then you send ds230.

Thank you soo much for your reply! our IV bill is not invoiced yet!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Missing Documents Checklist from NVC

It could be that they didn't see your co-sponsors information. Also, you need to attach a written explanation saying you only had three seasonal jobs. Make sure to sign the written explanation!! Very important!! :) If you have proof like pay stubs or a W-2 that would be helpful, but if not just state how much you made and attach it to the IRS publication here as proof: http://www.irs.gov/p...rs-pdf/p501.pdf
Attach the part that says "Who must file taxes" and highlight the situation that relates to you. I am in the same situation but haven't gotten approved for the I-130 yet! :)

-Marisa

Thank you so much Marisa!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Missing Documents Checklist from NVC
OK so even though i have already sent the I 864 form stating that I'm not currently employed and in the past I've only had 3 seasonal jobs so i was never eligible to fill income tax they still sent this checklist! My mom's finance is our sponsor!

My question is what should i do?

Also since my sponsor and I sent our I 864 forms separately do you think this checklist was sent to me because they haven't combined my packet yet?


[Supporting Documents Missing or Incomplete]

[x] It appears that there is no proof of current employment (a recently dated job letter or pay stub), or of
self-employment status (a recently dated letter on business letterhead or a business license).

[x] A written statement/explanation as to why tax returns were not filed is required if you are/have been
unemployed, retired or dependent
.
[x] The submitted income tax documents/IRS statements for the years marked below are missing/incomplete (if
you have lost any of the requested tax information, contact your local IRS office to obtain a copy) (Only
Federal returns (not state or local) are acceptable unless the sponsor's income was earned in Puerto Rico.)

• Schedules are missing for the year(s): [x] 2011 [ ] 2010 [ ] 2009 [ ] 2008.

• Federal income tax returns, literal printouts from the IRS (RTFTP) or a Letter 1722 issued by IRS

are missing/incomplete for the year(s): [x] 2011 [ ] 2010 [ ] 2009 [ ] 2008.

• W-2 forms are missing/incomplete for the year(s): [x] 2011 [ ] 2010 [ ] 2009 [ ] 2008.

[x] You have not enclosed an explanation of why you were not required to file income taxes under Federal tax
laws for any/all of the 3 most recent tax years. (Residence outside of the U.S. or retirement does not exempt a
U.S. Citizen or LPR from filing a Federal tax return. Individuals who were required to file a Federal tax return but
failed to do so are advised to file late returns.


All your responses will be greatly appreciated!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - March 2013

Either one can mail the package, but the form needs to be filled out by the beneficiary and all the supporting documents are of the beneficiary.

Is there a reason why you're waiting on correspondence from NVC? As long as the IV bill shows as PAID in the payment portal, you can send the IV package.



Thank You so much!! :)
& nope no reason just very confused lol
