GC for Parents - AOS and CP - Information Source

Hello, I have a question:

As I understand, two original Affidavit of Support need to be submitted for my parents application. However, besides copy of Federal income tax return and W-2, do I need to send pay stub(s) from the most recent 6 months? If so, can I send copies of pay stub(s) for each parent? I lost the pay stub for March, can I send pay stub for Jan, Feb, April, May, June and July?

Please advise! Thanks!
Yes, you can send copies of your pay stubs. The paystubs for the last month would be enough.
 
A quick update:
My mom got her IL today for an interview, end of Aug.
Yeah.. it's happening finally !! :D

Congrats, Jen! :)
Hopefully, the interview will be the last step for your mom, and she'll get her GC soon after that.

some general questions

I plan to file AOS for my parents who are currently in the US. I have some general questions.

1. Since my parents don't know English, I have to fill all the forms for them. Do I need to fill the Notice of Entry of Appearance? After they sign the form, do I need to notorize all those forms?

2. I read somewhere in this thread that since parents are visitors, so their current address on all forms should be their residence address in original country, not their current US address. Is that right?

Thank you in advance!

Thanks, gcmaze.
Your post is so damn funny :D
It reminds me of what I used to do till I got the IL. Can you believe it, I even made the case status page, my home page :D and am still checking the status, out of habit. (of course the IL came as a surprise b'cos the LUD didn't change at all)
I just read on this board that some one was still checking their online status, even after they got their GC - that's how habitual it gets us!

By now, even my li'l one knows where to find me when I'm home and when I'm not paying enough attention, wants me to click on all these emoticons (smilies) on this board for fun ;)

Update for Jenimmi~

Hi Jenimmi~

Just wanted to post a quick update for my parents case. Both of them recvd their papers from NVC and already mailed the signed choice of agent form back to me. I should recvd it within a week. Also I mailed the $ 70.00 Affidavit of Support fee bill.

I will keep you posted as the case progresses. Have a great weekend...!

Thanks for the update, Abs.
I received the DS-3032 signed and sent by my Dad today and I just mailed it back to NVC.
NVC has already received my fee bill mail on 7/3 (as per mail tracking that I used), but the automated msg just plays the old msg - DS3032 sent on June 19th blah blah. Let's see how soon they start processing after this.

You too have a fun weekend!

Suggestions needed

My sister is a US citizen and she filed 130 for my mom this April. My mom is currently in China.

Recently my mom got a B2 visa to visit US. It's actually quite surprising because on the visa application form, it clearly indicated that she applied immigration visa. But the visa official still issued her a one year multiple entry B2 visa.

My questions are:
1) Will it be faster to get GC, if she come to the US immediately and file AOS?
2) Will she need to file another 130 and withdraw the previous 130 CP?
3) If she doesn't withdraw the previous 130, can she file 485 based on previous 130?
4) What's the chance of being denied by an official at POE? I would guess the chance is slim since my visa is quite newly granted.:)

Any suggestions or related experiences are higly appreciated!
 
Help !

At this point I am beyond frustration. My parents' I-130 with VSC (ND 12/13/2005) is still NOT approved and it's been 7 months now. Last time I asked my congressman's office to inquire, we were told a background check is under way and the VSC is waiting for the result.

What options do I have right now ? This is turning into a nightmare...
