It's not a stupid question. First, there is a difference between tax transcripts and copies = copies of what you sent is not free of charge ( around 40$/ year asked ), when transcripts are a summary of your returns in a standard format, and come for free. Second, transcripst come from the...

Hi again, Yes, individual transcripst for 2004. Then obtain transcripts for the years you have been married. ( If I well remember the transcripts will show your filing status and names )

2007 tax year is not done yet. So, if your appointment is sometime soon, then 06; 05 & 04. If it is after the 2007 tax filing season ( feb to april 08 ), then it would be 07; 06 and 05. Thanks thoughcase for quoting me! ( I would have copied and pasted too if I had seen that question first ! )

Hi, If you get married before your number becomes current, then you should send updated forms for yourself and forms for your spouse. Also enclose a copy of the marriage certificate. If you get married after KCC has sent you the 2nd package ( but before the true interview ), then you should...

In therory the Lottery select candidates randomly. There have been some debates already on this. So, in theory, nothing can increase your chances. However, what happens is that most people do not get pictures meeting the requirements ( for example ), thus get rejected for that, but they do...

Evidence of Support : It can be any combination of the following three : _ Affidavit of Support : form I134 filled by a US Citizen ( USC ) or a Legal Permanent Resident ( LPR = GC holder ) http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/affsupp.htm _ Job offer in the US : it is better to obtain a job...

Hi, 1. I do not think it is that much of a deal. I had copies, but was not asked for them. The good thing ( but stressful ) of having copies is that you can check what you wrote and possibly send a corrected version to the KCC. 2. If you mean you got a degree higher than the HS from a US...

What Entermate wrote is correct. Your time counting towards the requirement for citizenship ( 3years for marriage to a USC, 5 years for GC ) only starts when you get the immigrant status. I wish non-immigrant time would count though...

Simply do not return the forms. But keep in mind that the Lottery is the easiest and fastest way to a GC, so think and then decide for yourself.

Ultimately, it's your decision. I had to get married quickly. I'm a female who had dreamed of a fairy tale wedding. Well, there was only me, him and the officer. But I'm married as much as any other couple who had a big reception. You could always do a reception later. That's waht I had...

To Toto: Yes, as a GC holder, you have to file a US tax return ( as resident, not the NR forms ). Even if you made 0, you should file a return. LPR as well as USC have to report their worldwide income. But there are tax treaties so that you do not pay have to pay taxes to 2 countries. I...

Evidence of Support : It can be any combination of the following three : _ Affidavit of Support : form I134 filled by a US Citizen ( USC ) or a Legal Permanent Resident ( LPR = GC holder ) _ Job offer in the US : it is better to obtain a job offer on the company's letterhead and have it...

As you are not yet a LPR ( thus not a USC either ), you can NOT "sponsor" yourself by signing the form I134. The Affidavit of Support, form I134 for DV, can only be done by a USC or a GC holder, which you are not ( yet ). The problem is not that you were out of the US for a few months, but...

From my "big" post: _____________________________________________________________ Evidence of Support : It can be any combination of the following three : _ Affidavit of Support : form I134 filled by a US Citizen ( USC ) or a Legal Permanent Resident ( LPR = GC holder )...

Same question is asked frequently. Here's one: http://immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=249769 You can also read my experience post for example. But there are other postings about it. It is advisable to return the forms ASAP ( for CP, for AOS, you have to wait based on your case# ).

Response to the rpivate message I received from nassnass: Download the forms here : http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/forms/forms_1342.html If you call KCC, you'll get a reply faster, but you will have no written proof. So, email KCC ( do not forget to mention your case number ) and ask...

Unless the rules have changed since I won, your NL should say that you do NOT need to obtain US police certificates. But you need police certificates for all the countries you have lived in since your 16th birthday ( as a general rule, check the attachment : it is one of the pages from my 2nd...

Hi, I do not know if you have won at the Lottery and if you currently live in the US ( it seems that you don't otherwise, you would probably already have your opinion ). Here's MY opinion : I'm French. I have received good education, and the French system is quite good in terms of help for...

Read my experience post for example. And there are several others with the marriage issue. Yes, if you want to benefit from her luck at the lottery, you would need to be be married before her interview. Just be prepared for questions on your relationship. The IO might have some doubts, and the...

Suggest your friend to do some research here. There are a lot of posts on the AOS topic, so he should be able to find the answer to his questions.
