IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	I-864 pain in the arse	petitioner doesn't meet the 125 percent of the poverty level guidelines, so petitioner must secure a 2nd sponser, a joint-sponser, a co-sponser.       Im aware of that.   petitioner WILL BE the primary sponser, even showing 0 income on the I-864.    Im aware of that aswell   petitioner MUST show proof of re-establishing domicile into the USA - the deadline for showing this proof is interview day at the IV Unit.     Would appointments with real estate count? Or do we actually need to show a signed lease?	Sean Irish	Male	Ireland	2013-05-27 09:17:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures	I-864 pain in the arse	Ok, i'll try explain this as clear as I can, hopefully somebody knows exactly what the answer is.   I married my wife in April, She is a US citizen by birth and I am Irish. My wife has Irish parents and they left the States and returned to Ireland when she was 5. She hasnt lived there since only visited on holidays (vacation) since. Also she has been in college in Ireland up until May 2012 hence not working full time.   So basically now we are at the stage where we want decide what to do next and moving to the States is what we want to do. My wife's sister is also a US citizen and now living there as his her Aunt she though is a LPR.   So I know we (I) meet all the criterea for the first part of the CR-1 application my problem lies with the I-864 affadavit of support. She wont be able to be my sponsor on that for a few reasons, She hasn't filed a tax return with the US IRS before we only just found that out she might have to! She doesnt have a job there yet, but she should get one easily enough once we get there, and the domincle issue, we probably will be living in a hotel or with her sister when we arrive before we get a place sorted.   So I need a Co-Sponsor? Her sister and aunt both pass the 125% min poverty guideline and they both have said they would sponsor me. So is there any point in my wife going true all the hassle trying to back date her taxes etc if her aunt will be the one financially supporting me? I also think there is an excemption from filling with the IRS as long as she can prove she has earned below $90,000 and has being paying taxes to the Irish goverment.   Thanks for taking the time in reading my rambling post.
