You must have income of $ 19387 per year for the family of two for the purpose of I-864. You can use your assets or savings and can include assets and savings of principal immigrant to make the difference in your income. You may need a co- sponsor but for purpose of this form co-sponsor has to be a relative who has the same principal address as the sponsor and is related to the sponsor as a spouse,adult child,parents or siblings. May be you like to Waite till Jan 2014 get a job which pays more then 20K a year and then send I-864. 

well this is really disapointed cray5ol.gif , an a co-sponsor should be a friend?

VietnamCr1 interview question
Had our interview on march 24th 2014 and it was a breeze. Im the petitioner and they let me inside, as a matter of fact they ask me like 5 question and ask my wife only one question. They ask my wife do i shave LOL. But for our experience i see alot of blue slips and only several people pass. They are tougher since the visa scandals in vietnam, but since i petitioner for my wife and 3 years old daughter 3 years ago makes it easier i guess and good luck with your interview. I think is better if you can accompany your husbamd to the interview

USCIS Service CentersInterview done, request for evidence?

i had an interview on december 17, 2013 after the interview i ask the office is everything ok? he said yes from  what i see everything is good but i still need to go over your files. it was a large stack of paper that i saw in his hands. in 2007 i had an arrest for possesions of heroine so i had to wait 5 years to get my citizenship. in march 15, 2012 when i came back to the state at port of entry i was held in immigration for 3 months from vistiting my wife and child that lived in vietnam. in june 2012 i was released from immigration jail the judge granted me from REMOVAL. So my question is why do they still need an RFE (regquest for evidence)? i sent everything in and even hired an immigration lawywer. what do they need? do they need me to get a drug test or something to make sure i quit everything? i smoke weed hopefully dont dont require drug test.

how long will my wife get an interview date after her visa is paid? also im permanent resident and my files is F2A.
DungXNot TellingVietnam2013-01-22 20:44:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)Help please!!!!

Ok couple of questions-

you filed paperwork in Jan 2011 (which gave you an earlier priority date) and then you had a baby in Aug 2011 --- were you expecting the baby to be on the earlier paperwork?

You had to file additional paperwork for the baby after she was born right?? That would mean the childs paperwork is going to be dated later. She would have a later priority date. Because its Nov 8 2011, it seems they received your completed application Nov 8.

Theyre not going to back date the child to Jan because the mother was submitted in Jan.

You have 2 different visas for 2 different people. One has an earlier priority date then the other because they were filed at different times. One can technically leave before the other. The first one can wait for the second one. But they will not bump up the second one to leave earlier with the first one, even if she is a cute little baby.

so yeah, youre going to have to wait until both their dates are current. (I dont know what the current dates or how long of a wait it will be- sorry)




damn forreal? i was expecting for both of them to leave at the same time on the earlier priority date which i filed back in january 2011. my lawyer say 5 months til they get here after i pay for the visas so i do not know. oh and i also paid for the AOS invoice too

Dear Sir or Madam:

The National Visa Center has received all documentation necessary to complete pre-processing
of your case. As soon as an interview date has been scheduled, the applicant, petitioner
and attorney (if applicable) will be notified.

The applicant should NOT make any travel arrangements, sell property, or give up employment
until the US Embassy or Consulate General has issued a visa.

The US Embassy or Consulate General may require additional documentation at the time of
the interview. Additional documentation requirements if applicable can be referenced at
the following URL: http://travel.state..../info_3742.html










 

 

It has been almost 2 months since i received that email and i was wondering does that mean the case is complete and how long should my wife expect an interview?

How long does it take after you get that email on average?

Yes you can go to the interview. It is better if you can go with her. There is a chance you will be asked questions as well. My wife and I had our interview last week and they asked me questions too. You can read the consulate review I wrote about our experience here: (http://www.visajourn...php?entry=13934)

 

wow nice review trinh thanks! all of our original documents were sent to NVC and i tihnk NVC forward it to HCM consulate but they told us to bring all orignal documents so im a little worry. and my dumb lawyer made me sign an expired  i-864 affadavit of support so now we have to redo that form again and to bring it with us to  the interview.

Wife had an interview on march 24 with our daughter derivative with mom and got a blue slip stating "please come back to the consulate when your daughter's IR2 case is ready to be interview."Originally it was f2a and i filed 2 seperate petition. Had my citizenship about 2 months ago and didnt contact NVC since my wife case was already in vietnam for interview, so i sent an email with my naturalize certificate and request an expedite for my little daughter case and was approved. I also request the consulate to give my daughter case for an early interview and also got approved. Now my daughter got an interview on april 29 super excited!!! Now my question is do they still need my daughter to pay for visa fee and aos fee since i already paid with her mom when it was f2a? And also do they require her to do the DS260 again??? Please help im nervous. Im in vietnam rigjt now and had to delay my flight back to the state and waiting on my daughter interview.

When you file for F2A - your spouse and children can be included on one I-130 - but it has to be seperate once you upgrade it to IR-1/2. They each need to have their own petition with two seperate IV and other fees paid at NVC ...They cease to have the derivative benefits..!!
 


well i did file 2 seperate petition while i had greencard, both visa and aos fees paid and both did ds230 , i still have reciept
