Africa: Sub-Saharanaffidavit of support

Hi Dawarig,

Since you became a full-time employee earlier this year, did you not file income tax for at least the previous 3 years?


Yea I didn't filed tax income last year.

Africa: Sub-Saharanaffidavit of support
Hi helpful people finally my package is in Nairobi now, I have question for affidavit of support. I don't have W2 form or tax transcript the only thing I have is pay stubs and letter shows the day I start the job and how much I earn I became fulltime employee earlier this year. Does the consular accept pay stubs as proof?

Thanks

Africa: Sub-SaharanNairobi Embassy Thread!

I brought 6 mos of pay stubs, my employment verification letter and my tax return for 2008 (this was in Jan 2009) - all the CO cared about was the pay stubs & the employment letter, but if you made sufficient income and filed taxes for the last 3 years you may as well go ahead & get the transcripts - you'll need them for AOS and can use them again.


Katie&Sifa,

I didn't filed my tax income last year I just have my pay stubs I will use them.

Thanks

Hi friends how things going on I hope y’all doing well, I have question in the consular stage do they ask to show pictures of party engagement, is requirement to have party engagement?
Thanks for your help



They didn't ask for that specifically in my husband's interview. In fact, they didn't ask for any pictures at all. The interviewer just looked at the pictures we had put in the original K-1 petition.

Obviously, bring pictures/e-mails/etc documenting an on-going relationship just in case. But the reality was we were never asked for them.

I have heard some people say they were asked when they got engaged. But I don't think they specifically asked for pictures.

Basically, if you don't have pictures of the engagement party, but have strong proof of an on-going bonafide relationship in your petition and you can answer straightforward questions about your relationship during the interview, you shouldn't have a problem. Nairobi is not the hardest consulate to go through by far.

When if your interview date? Good luck! good.gif

It shouldn't hurt your case since you are applying for a fiancee visa. This means that they really only look at YOUR finances and whether you can support her when she gets to the US. That's why they have you (and not her) fill out the affidavit of support with your tax returns, salary, etc. They never even glanced or asked about my fiance's finances so I don't think you should have a problem. But just to be sure, don't mention it in the interview! whistling.gif

Seriously though, people send money to their significant others all the time. No big deal smile.gif

You can accompany her to the interview, that will be good.


I'm thinking about that, how was your interview.


Hi Dawarig,

I accompanied my fiance to his interview in Nairobi and we went through NO PROBLEMS. We just had to sit and wait for about 2 hours....but if you're patient, it shouldn't be a problem. I just walked right up with my fiance to the window and stood with him while they asked the questions. You can read the interview experience on the previous pages.

By the way--while we were sitting there we met a somalian translator that was helping translate for many somalese. However I don't think he worked for the Embassy--I think he was paid by the Somalese.

When is your interview? Good luck!

Hi Dawarig

Welcome to VJ! Yes there are Somali interpreters at the embassy but i think its also good if someone who speaks English (if she has any) accompanies her to the embassy; it could be a friend or relative. All the best!



ddartt1 thanks I'm planing to go the interview with her if that is acceptable; are they too picky about that what do you think.

Thank you, for your help; I have one more question can you tell me, what is inside package 3 what kind forms.


Whatever forms are rwequired by that consulate for that visa application. It varies somewhat by consulate. DS156, DS156k, DS230, DS157 are all common, though not all are used by all consulates, and some are used differently by consulates. Kiev does not use the DS230 and the DS157 is for males over 16 only...at Kiev. Other require it for all applicants. The I-134 is usually included also. Specific instructions for that consulate are the most valuable thing in the packet

Dawarig they will require proof that you communicated frequently.
In my case they chaecked emails, snail mail, photos, Fedex/ hl receipts. Anything that could show we were in contact.
I showed my western union receipts but just a few. That is good if u signed up in that should work well. I use rebtel to call my parents and it keeps all the records.
I wish you all the best in your interview. we have a Nairobi Embassy thread. Search for it and you will read all the interview experiences posted there.

The more you have the better.

I have money transfer receipts; and I use onlinephonecard it shows how many phone card I purchased, but it dont show where I called do you think that will be a proof. Since I'm using onlinephonecard and her number is not showing up, does the embassy require her number to show.

Remember all consulars are not the same some are too picky they ask more evidence, and some are easy they are not too picky so it depends.

You can tell yourself that all you like. Your question has been answered numerous times. I'm sure you don't like the answers that you've received, but that's not going to change the harsh reality of this situation. Used phone cards are useless. They prove nothing. They prove that someone called someone else. Only with call logs can you prove that you called your fiance.
