Immigration Forum / USA Marriage Base / August 2004

I posted before.  Husband's friend married a Canadian woman here in

Rather than investigating further into ways that he could bring her ...

After an AOS case approved by a local office, do they internally fill
out both I-181 and I-89 and forward to the regional office? In my
case, the local NYC office told me they have forwarded my file to
Vermont and they gave me an I-181 case number, but not I-89. Is it

My wife just received her EAD card in the mail today, but still no approval
or anything on the AP.  I called the disinformation line today and she said
that they are only working on 24 Apr apps.  We cant believe that we got the
EAD before AP?  ANy others with similar circumstances?

Something I just want to verify. On the I-864 it is 2004 poverty
guidelines that I enter on the I-864 Section D "Determination of
Eligibility Based on Income" even though the latest tax year is 2003 ? I
have entered here the 2004 guideline of 4 people at $23,562, the

Hi K-1/K-3 Experts:
My wife is in the U.S. on a K-3.  In the process of applying for her K-
3, she's received a full medical exam overseas.  Per I-485 instruction,
a K-1er (probably applicable for a K-3er too since the form was

I submitted my I-485 in June 2001. The case was approved at USCIS NYC in
Aug 2003, after 26-mo wait. Then, according the NYC, the case was
transferred to Vermont office for card production, and they gave me an
EAC number. Now one year after my case being approved, I am still

I am in the K1 process with my fiance.  I have sufficient funds from my
last year's income + savings to satisfy the minimum amount required but
I am a full-time student and do not have employment or income this
year.  We were to live off my savings until my fiance can legally work.

I read on VisaJourney of another DCF applicant's denial because they
used foreign earned income excluded from Form 2555 on their tax return
on the I-864 Affidavit of Support.
So what should be put down in section D of the I-864??  The instructions

My wife is coming on a k3 visa soon, how do I get a ssn for her once she
arrives in the usa?

Dont know if anyone remembers me lol its been a looooong time since Ive

Sort of surprised, but if there staff have been 'lectured' in the past,
well would you not have a look?

There seems to be conflicting information on this. My question is this.
Now that I have the conditional greencard, can I go back into the SSN
office and have that certain line removed from my SSN card?  Our
interviewing officer at the local service centre said to make sure we

Hey there
Amazing to think after 6 months of unemployment I can now work.  In a
way I am nervous about job hunting and dreading the thought of no more
sleep ins for me.

Ok, so I've been reading through posts all afternoon and am still a
little fuzzy on the work situation. When my fiance comes over, will he
be able to work immediately or will he have to wait a few months or how
does it work? Also, do we have to be married for him to work? I'm very

any experieces with this? Thank you
