Affidavit of Support / Tax Returns

My friends,
I would appreciate if anyone knows & I wish to be clarified properly on the Tax Returns that will accompany the Affidavit of Support. If the Tax Returns is that of 2005 and your Visa Interview comes up 2007, can one still use the tax returns of the 2005 together with the Affidavit of Support or one is expected to produce tax returns of 2006 ?
 
why i have not contributed for a long time

i started reading this thread for about 6 months now. and each time i always feel frustrated cos the case number of everyone is quite low compare to mine, which is 31,000. pls any hope
 
Do Not Despair Oliveboy

Sample Interview Questions

Hi Guys,

Compliments.

Here are some sample interview questions which my husband and I compiled from various sources and rehearsed for our interview. Virtually all the 13 questions he was asked were on our list.

These are simple questions which you could assume you have correct answers to but you may be surprised at your performance the first time you go through them. In our own case, one of us was mixing up dates etc. until we had gone through the list about twice.

You may notice that some of the questions on the list are very similar but that was deliberate so that no matter how the consular officer chooses to ask the question, your answer would be the same. E.gs When did you marry your wife? 32.When is your wedding anniversary?

So please rehearse well and make your mistakes at home and not in front of the consular officer! :D

Sorry, forgot to add the last question - What was your matric no. in school?

I asked my husband this question a day before the interview but he said he couldn't remember. Question also came out at the interview and my husband again said he couldn't remember considering he left school many years ago. The official told him those who left school much earlier than him usually remembered.

Thank God he didn't use it against us though I guess it means there's no crime in saying you don't know a question or can't remember a piece of info but just make sure it's not a vital one like "what's your spouse birthday?' :D
But to be on the safe side, revise the data you filled on the first forms. The questions more or less center on those forms.

Later, after we got the pink form, my husband confessed he could have searched his documents for the matric no but he was just too lazy to do so during our rehearsal prior to the interview. Can you imagine?

Men will always be men :( !

Hi soken02000,

Compliments!!!

I think it will be better for you to get the most recent tax returns which in your own case will be that of 2006. From the instructions that came with our second package, it states that the most recent tax papers must be included.

All the best

Thanks MamaJ for the encouragement.

I actually began to think I was getting too boring and 'efiko-ish' with all the details I was posting and thought I should take a back seat. I'm happy some of you have found them useful.

My objective and prayer is that all of us on this forum get the pink letter which is why my postings are usually long and perhaps too detailed :rolleyes: 'cos you never can tell what one little info posted could do to help someone achieve a lifelong dream of going to the US as a permanent resident.

I wish everyone all of God's best in the coming year.

Hi all, especially Jrcies, Pastor Adebayo, 2Tee and a special congratulations to people like WLD and family. I am a single DV winner, and I am having a bit of a problem securing an Affidavit of Support. But because I am in Education, I already have a Job offer. Besides my sponsor is promising to send a notarized letter stating that I will be given six months accomodation. Will these documents make up for the absence of an AOS. I also plan to complement these documents with my Nigerian Bank Statement. In other words, DON I NEED AN AOS BEING A SINGLE APPLICANT. Please advise!

Hi Migo,

You dont need AOS as a single applicant. The is stated in the instructions sent to us along with the second package. I dont think your bank details will be considered also. Your Job offer will give you a push.

Wishing you the best.

MamaJ,
I think it would be wise of you to say the truth as it were as
you will not be denied the visa because of not meeting with your sponsor.
