November 2009 family based filers, post here

So i have a question..
I hope you guys can help me.
I have to send in my fathers 2008 tax returns..
he is self-employed and on the tax return his income is sufficient but after the business and home expenses it is now..
I don't even know if i'm explaining myself right but which is matters?
the initial income or the net profit?
 
Thanks Naas for your reply.
I have applied AOS/I-130 for my mother she is here on non immigrant visa.
application was recieved by USCIS on Nov 12th 2009,got email about RFE on 3rd.I am sure it is for medical as I didnot send the medical forms with the application.
What is the RFE for I-130 Naas?

I am no expert on this, but I think the required income is just gross income. If he is doing business, it should be the income after all related business expenses. Home expenses are irrelevant and I don't think he reported home expenses on tax return, right?

For birth certificate.. I had sent it in, but they want a different one...
Have you done your medical?
 
I agree, we also received a FP notice for 12/21/09 at San Jose, but will try to do a walk-in tomorrow(12/7).

My wife was able to do a walk-in FP today at the San Jose office. Hopefully she will get her EAD soon.

Don't want to cut your expectations but seems that doing FP early will not speed up EAD.

I did early FP, two weeks ago and no EAD/change in status yet (other than normal touches second day after FP)

Good luck and patience to everybody ! :rolleyes:

Well, even if it doesn't speed up, it's good to get the task done :). Hope you are wrong :p
 
I wish so badly to be wrong :)

I'll keep you posted but I looked on the October thread and looks like if you go on the requested appointing date then you get EAD approved almost the same day.

I guess there is a trigger somewhere there to 'wake-up' the processing on the real FP date.

My real FP date come soon (12.10.09). I'll be able to prove my theory then.

Again, I could be wrong ;)
