Thank you for watching!! Let's get these approvals!
I have looked at dozens of sources for ideas of what to include with the form and this was very helpful... I learned even more. Thanks for sharing. Food luck in your journey.
PS: My case is a little different, as I am sponsoring my wife, we have been married for 7 years and have two children together. I do not foresee any issue, but you never know, right, so I am making sure that I include enough information that any intelligent person would come to the conclusion that our marriage and life together are real. Thank you, again.
I'm glad I found your videos. Wished I had seen your channel when I was starting my process. Now I'm just waiting for the interview date. It's been a long process. You have a lot of good advice. Probably the best I've seen in detailing the steps and process. I went thru lots of TH-cam videos trying to help me compile my documents and prove a bonafide marriage. Was hard, because we live countries apart and had nothing that was joint. After going thru it, it wasn't as complicated. Just need to be prepared, organized, and a step ahead of the process.
hi there! thank you so much for being here and for you kind comments! glad to have you here :) Congrats on getting to this point, I know the process is so daunting at times, you should be proud for navigating it. Did you get an interview date yet?
Can i ask you what you used to prove your marriage?
@@blackwaltz3135 I used my WhatsApp call logs and chats with my husband, his family, and friends. My husband and I chat and talk daily. I did a screen shot of the call logs for one month. Picked a recent month close to my filing date of the i130. For the chats I did a flow of different dates to show how the relationship progressed from friendship to relationship to marriage. Few pages here and there of the chats. I also included chats with his family. I wrote a summary of our relationship giving details about myself and how it lead to our marriage. This was my first marriage and I never thought I would ever get married. Somehow things changed when I met my husband. I included pictures of when I went to see him, things we did, our marriage, and pics with his family. On the back of the picture, I wrote what was going on in the picture. We don't have any joint accounts due to distance. After marriage I listed my spouse in my 401K. My i130 got approved without any additional requests and was forwarded to NVC. I had spent a lot of time questioning how I can prove a bonafide marriage. Watched a lot of videos. Hope this helps.
@@DeviOhira yes it's a very long process that started in September 2019. Case got sent to NVC April 2020. Case got documentarily qualified January 2021. Just few days ago I finally got the interview email we've been waiting for.
This is a wonderful video and so helpful in preparing your evidence for the I-130 packet. There are a few things I am going to add now because of this video. Thank you so much!!!!
ohh thank you so much for being here! happy to have helped, really appreciate you letting me know!
Thank you for this detailed video, i wish your approval fast enough for you n hubby to be together finally.Congratulations
Wow! This is so insightful. This is by far the best video I have seen on I-130. Thank you. I have a question, how do will our family and friends address the affidavit of support that the marriage is a bona side one?.
Secondly, how do we upload the evidence? Note: we are filing online.
Thanks.
This is super helpful but also makes me anxious. We don't have much photo evidence because we don't like taking pictures. btw, I found that the friend and family affidavit of relationship doesn't have to come from U.S. citizens.
I think it actually does need to be US citizens
Wow! This is amazing.. thankfully I found your videos.. this so helpful. Thank you keep safe and healthy ma’am 😊
Super useful video explain everything in detail. Thank you it's extremely useful.
This is a good job and fully explained which more informative.
Awesome video Devi. Thanks
SAGAPOOOOO MY BEAUTIFUL WIFEEEEEE. I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVEEEE YOU
SAGAPO PERISSOTERO MY BABY LOVE
i have been going thru this as well to have that much help wow you blessed I'm following
Thank you so much for your reply. YOu are so accurate and correct in your guidance that i truly can say they should hire you. No kidding. I wish and hope that either you go and get your law firm and helping people or one of the offices with immigration agencies watch your video and hire you. I keep my finger cross. As I am waiting to hear from the prosses, I hope that you do not mind if i have any questions come up, return and bug you again. thanks once again, stay safe.
hi there! oh my goodness, you flatter and me and made my day. Thanks so much for your kind words and even more for being here! Yes whenever you have questions please do post about them here and I am also wishing you a quick process
Thank you for the video it truly was helpful and the link to the templates is great. super helpful thank you so much
Hi Giovanni! thanks so much for being here and for your words, I really appreciate it!
Great review and so much good information. thank you Ohira! if you dont mind me asking. As the petitioner did you change your last name to your husband's name after you submitted the form to USCIS or before starting the petition?
Do it before is best
How were you able to have bank account open together since your husband was not in the United state? Please show me the way
You don’t need to do this. Confidence with some nice pictures in different places or weeding ceremony is sufficient for proving it.
How many photos do I need to submit? Also, my wife lives aboard and I only spent one month with her. Do I need to provide hotel bills , plane tickets, etc?
@@boysovereign yes,the more the better
As someone whose husband's case was denied due to "lacking evidence," this is HORRIBLE advice.
@@jewelweed6880 hello. As someone who's husband is about to file , which evidence did you attach initially?
@@misanyazura6321 one thing we couldn't give was financial proof - our joint account was too new and we didn't use it enough to prove anything. We live rent free with my mom and no house bills in our name. We don't have joint property yet that they would take as proof we own big things together. They didn't care about the proof that my mom loaned us money so he could attend a graduate school program. It could have been more expensive, but it isn't cheap. Why would she do that if we weren't really married!???
These documents must be printed or the electronic versions are enough? Thanks for your help 🙏🏻
Informative & helpful. Thank you.
Hello Thank you for this video but I got confused... I just started my petition and I'm at the point of ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE
*Religious Records
*School Records
*Census Records
*Written Statement
Is this necessary please
How long dd u date before marrying? And how long between wedding & filing ?
Damn we didn't do captions 😱 great advice. Anyway, if relationships are pure and real I don't think that there gonna be any problems...🙏
omg How will i get all my travel proof! 😭😭 I have been traveling for 3 years and i would stay months overseas with him and i have not been documenting since i am not a social media person 🤦♀️🤦♀️ i have some pictures but not too many i enjoy my moments and forget everything
Hi! There's a CBP (customs border protection) website where you can find your departure/arrival history for the last 5 years:
i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/#/history-search
Just input your information and then you can download a PDF.
Hope it helps you!!!!
It’s all on your passports
This was super helpful! I did have a question, did you submit a letter from yourself about your spouse or just the affidavit?
thanks luv! I didn't submit an affidavit from me personally, but I did submit a cover letter which did explain a few pieces of the timeline of our relationship, and I also had my best friend and my dad write an affidavit to also give further support of the timeline of my relationship and the legitimacy of it. they further vouched that they love my husband, they see we FaceTime eachother everyday, etc etc. be sure to have the people writing your affidavits include their full name, dob, city and state of birth, passport number
@@DeviOhira but what if they don't have passports??
@@msphae30 do they have other credible ID? tax id? drivers license? anything that establishes them as a real person that can be looked up in a system
@@DeviOhira okay thanks.
Hi, in filing an I-130 and I-130A together. does it also need to file an affidavit of support of financial evidence right away?
Thanks for your video. If you file online, when do you submit proof of marriage pictures of the couple? TIA
Hi thank you for this very informative video. I am about to start the process. How long does the process takes?
@Selenia Jones thank you
OK, so it's been 4 years and we know that your husband's with you Now or at least I hope so.Could you let us know how this worked out for you
Very informative and thanks for sharing 👍
thanks so much for being here!
Thank you
My question is a
if can long time waiting biometric uscis in
Form N-400 three months
What happen?
Not once have I heard she mentioned anything about having a baby together.
Thanks so much for this video. I just chanced on it whiles completing I 130 for my husband who is in Ghana currently. I want to know if I have to file a separate application for our two under 18 year olds or they will be covered under my husband’s application. Thanks
my wife n i have a joint bank statement but we dont have enough money in there now because we are building our house. does it matter how much we have in there or not?
For the I-130's evidence, did you have to translate everything via a certified translator? Or was it okay to translate it yourself if you are bilingual?
YOURSELF
A certified translator. They might reject your documents.
Wow! Thank you so much for this video it helps me a lot thank you for some of your tips 😊
hi Hazel! thank you girl for being here :)
I don't have an insurance plan and I don't have a bank account with my spouse what can I do to show Evident
Will children pictures & thier Birth Certificates sufficient ?
Did you uploaded the photos under pdf before printing them out to add to your package?
we could not activate my cc as i do not have a ss even though it was joint.
I admired your video and it is educative. Mine was rejected because of signature, according to the Form I-797C. What is the acceptable signature???
HI Michael! thanks for being here - by chance did you sign in blue ink...? they always say you have to sign in black. Other than that, I would submit an inquiry into your myUSCIS account to have more clarification if there wasn't any addt'l info provided
I keep hearing that the K1-VISA is a much faster one, right? Would Money gram receipt be sufficient proof?
Thank you for all of this information! Very helpful! So... did all go well?! Did your documents get approved?
Hi Devi, I'm so happy that i found your channel, i do have a question, do i need to translate and certified Facebook messages if they are in foreign language ?
Yes. All documents in foreign language needs to be translated to English.
@@chosenone5536 thank you
USCIS is problems, problems, problems!!!! We are a gay couple and married a year ago and living together most of the time in Colombia. My spouse is not out to his family and afraid to tell them. So, they were not invited to our wedding....only a few of my spouses friends attended. No invitations used, or necessary for our wedding. We do have a large age gap 42 years, which I am sure USCIS will question along with the fact that he is Colombian. I have decided if we are denied a CR1 in the future, that we will live together in another country, Spain, Uruguay, ect are options. I will not let USCIS cause me and my spouse to separate....we love each other too much.
oh John, im so sorry to hear that. Have you tried direct consular filing through the columbian embassy? especially if for the time being you are mostly living abroad there, but can prove domicile (a US address that you'll move to once both of you are here) then that might be the better faster route. almost always the DCF is faster. I know you will make it work
How can I let them know my marriage is real we both speak in Arabic ?
HELLO ..if you are a legal permanent resident, do you have to file two(2) i130 petition for spouse and child?
I send my all File last week and good the ioe msg on my phone today I send all evidence that my lawyer required marriage pictures marriage certificate his information mine every thing but know my watching your video and think I can send more better evidence I don’t send any evidence that show how we mat and where do u think that’s ok or I can send it now
hi Gorri! thank you for being here & so sorry for delay! the more evidence you can send, the better, as long as it is a variety. did your lawyer update you with the latest progress on your case?
Hi. My husband is the one in the US and is filing the i130 for both daughter and I and i130A for me. We're in a long distance relationship since 2016 and came to see me a couple times in my country. W E don't really hv pics together besides the wedding day with family and our daughter. We also have screen shot chats on whatsapp, money transactions sent to me and only one letter he sent to me since he is in the military. Will these evidence be enough? Which cover page should we do since its for my daughter and I, saw there's two?
Hi Elsa. Is there any 1) letter correspondence between the two of you? 2) proof that you sent eachother gifts like receipts 3) travel bookings or records of any travel together like hotel, reservation, train tickets etc 4) Him adding you to his retirement accounts as a beneficiary or a will or something like that. If you could also have friends and family members write an affidavit or support to serve as testament to the bona fide marriage. also, which cover letter are you referring to?
@@DeviOhira he just joined the military so there wasn't much. All we did was talk at nights not for long since they had curfew and all. We hv pics of wedding, text messages from last yr and this yr. I don't have receipt of anything since I've thrown them away. We got married in 2018 and he was the one who came down for us to get married in my home town. I'm from the Caribbean and we hv never travel together since I've never left the Caribbean. Will our names on tricare be one a proof.
@@elsa6520 do you have screenshots you can pull up of your call logs for when you called at night? I would also write a cover letter explaining all that so that uscis has a better understanding. I'm not familiar with tricare - is that a bank? if so, if it's anything where your names are together on an account, thats a great form of proof!
So you can get a non immigrant visa while waiting for your I-130 application to process? For example a student visa or tourist visa?
Hello
Good video and information.
So who is supposed to be signing I-130A my husband is in different country. Can u give me a example of the letters that u family wrote please 🙏
if your husband is in a diff country you don't need to have him sign the I-130A. but for good measure I would just include a cover letter articulating that so they have no chance of mistaking an incomplete app
Do I have to send the application without sign? We make some bank transactions between ours back accounts can I add as a proof.
@@rosarivera3003 you can submit the I-130A without the signature of your foreign spouse but definitely make sure to sign everything else! if going hard copy, It must be in black ink
I was looking at you and listening to you suddenly I disappeared on your eyes 😂😂😂
Hello, where can I find affidavit of support for friends and family to complete
Thank you so much for this info ❤️
thank you for being here Kenya!! xo
Hi guys how did u prepare the photos you add to the i130? How do be sure that it’s gonna fit their measures? Is there a website to check? Thank you
hi Renata! I literally just did it through google drive docs and inserted a table where I placed a photo in each section of the table 3 x3 on each page (doesn't have to be the biggest ever) so I could also write a caption under each photo. Then I printed it on regular printer paper. Just as long as the photos are clear and bright enough to see.
Devi Ohira im gonna upload the form online but still trying to figure out how to make sure it fits the requerimentos
I'm beneficiary of I 130.can my sister write Affidavit for me?My wife is petitioner and she is an USC
My fiance's k1 visa interview got denied and they asked for more information and resubmit more evidence. I think they called this the green paper more evidence to see if it's bonifide. I had a question if this gets denied can I Go to Vietnam and marry her there and then apply for a spousal visa. Someone said I had to wait two years for this. I'm not sure let me know please thanks and God Bless.
Hi! Is it required for the affidavits to only come from US citizens? How about from the other side of the spouse?
It has to be from a us citizen, that's what they told me.
Or unless your spouse has assets of his or her own that can be turned into money. Like owning a home in there country, business or stocks and bonds and savings accounts that can be transferred to the US
Hey Devi, a question for you, we do have a lot of proof that we do have a real relationship but financial ones are really hard for us because for me for example, I can`t have a US bank account or be living with my spouse so we can have something like a lease together because I don`t have a social security number, do you think Immigration takes that into account ?
Damn!! Your too much. You have it all mama. Too explicit and clear.
haha thanks for being here hun!!
Can I sign as the preparer if I prepared it for my spouse
for the I-130A? you don't need to have sig on it technically
How long did it take from mailing of petition to visa interview?
im still in the middle of the process, im at NVC stage so interview I cannot yet be sure how long it will take. on average they say a year for people from I-130 filing to visa interview
@@DeviOhira i have question please i send nvc 1040 and w2 to prove my income is it enough or i need something else ? Please
@@DeviOhira Hi how is life going for you now? have you been reunited with your husband? Did sending all of the documentation assist you? thanks so much for helping all of us like this!
@@TwoTrees777 hi Hun! you're so sweet to write in! We are very much enjoying life together and FINALLY jumped through another hoop- we finally got his green card this week, after almost 6 months from POE. Crazy. How have things been for you? Sending hugs
My spouse I130. What support documents I have to send. Marriage certificate both birthday certificate my us passport copy and us citizen ship certificate is that all or do I have to send anything else I mean other than cover letter and pictures.
When you are international, how you can show financial ties?
Document showing you send money to support your wife or husband
Quick question we have videos too is it a good idea to send videos of us example family bd Christmas vacations?
nope they won't accept videos
that being said many I-130s online don't require pictures to be accepted
I want to know when I can receive my application because I have my brother live in America he has nationality American and he sende for me and my. 3 kids 16 14 12. And my hisband an application for alien relative in 2016 october but i haven t got answers intel now i want to know when I can have answer
you can submit an application at any time - do you mean when approval will be? it will come down to many factors - how well the applications were prepared being a major factor, service center assigned, which visa type (different for siblings than say children)
If i am doing the form i-130 online, where i have to put the additional evidence like weeding photograph?
Question! So the affidavit of support. They have to be US citizens? Because it doesn’t say anything on the I-130 form. For example, I was born and raised in the US, but my husband is from Mexico. My husband sister (my sister in law) can’t write me a affidavit?
Hi Karla! it's a great question - the reason I went with and advise US citizens is because there's a way for the US to easily vet who is an actual person, if you're providing ID info like a passport number. I think when it comes to other countries, the ID process can be a little bit harder, but with that being said, I wouldn't rule it out entirely. Just make sure that when your sister in law writes it, she also puts as much identification info in the signature of it so if USCIS needs to run a background report to check that this an actual person, they might be able to do so
I got rfe for bona fide marriage..can I respond by myself or I need lawyer.
Thank you
My spouse file i-130 online but I don't know how I am going to file i-130a?Is it advisable to mail my i-130a and i-485 together?
Good morning ms devi how are you my question to you isit for couples who's married whit out child or couples with children please i like to have en answer please thank you may lord bless you for all the work that you are doing
hi Pierre! thanks for being here. Not totally sure I understand your question - regardless of children or not, couples can file for the spousal visa. Then it becomes a matter of whether or not your kids are young enough (under 18) for the US citizen/LPR to sponsor them too
Good morning
What about photos?
How do you add captions to photos online...?
Cool so even if the foreign spouse was never in the US it shouldn’t be a problem for her to possibly get her CR1 issued as long as I submit plenty of proof that we had an engagement party etc and WhatsApp transcripts from the 1st day we started talking as well.
hi Brayant! yes, not ever stepping foot on US soil still qualifies a CR-1 approval, granted you have solid evidence of the bona fide marriage and have seen eachother at least once in person. It sounds like you have all of it. Supporting affidavits from friends and family testifying about your relationship might help too
@@DeviOhira so if my wife has never been to the US what's the best attainable proof of bona-fide marriage? will pics (recent, marriage, honeymoon,zoo and activities) and screenshots of chat and logs (4 years ago up until today) and maybe plane tickets from honeymoon do or should we get a foreign joint bank account aswell?
13:00 regarding screenshots of conversations. What if the conversations are not in english? We still want to use them but immigration officer will not understand foreign language. It would cost to much to get them translated. What do you think?
I think for screenshots, they might not need to get translated by an official translation company, if your foreign spouse can do a side by side translation instead. for more official documents like birth certificates, etc, then use a certified translation company. Because you are right, it gets expensive. The company I use is $20/page
Hello! So my quick question is do you know if the pictures of the wedding dress has to be white, because during my wedding it was not white it was red, do you think that matters too much? Thank you!
hi Lana! I think youre lovely red dress is totally fine, but just explain it with a photo caption so they get it. "This dress is my wedding dress. I chose a red wedding dress instead of traditional white because ___"
Thanks for the informative video. I guess that my next step is the financial support documentation. Where can I find a schedule of the minimum financial requirements in dollars?

@@DeviOhira Thank you so much for your reply!!! I have had such a hard time understanding this and there's no one to speak to at the moment due to Covid.
i need some information regarding the i-130. my case just got approved. My sister in the U,S petitioned for me a couple of years back when I was single. Now I am married and am wondering how to proceed.
hi there congrats on the I-130! are you married to a US citizen or LPR? at this point since you already are approved via your sister, it would be best just to complete the process with her as the petitioner rather than starting over via your wife
@@DeviOhirathank you so much for the warmth. just wanted to add that I have been written to by the DVC and asked to open an online profile as my case has now been transferred to the embassy in my country where I reside. Does my sister still have access to the application?
@@DeviOhira also, I am married to a foreign citizen. We have two kids that were born in the United States of America.
@@lordhamiltonbingers as long as your sister is still the rightful petitioner, then yes she should have access.
If your spouse works overseas will they let them come for visits on a visitor visa, is their job enough evidence they won't try to come in on the visitor visa and just try to stay? Or are all your times together traveling around?
Since filing the I-130, my husband hasn't yet come into the US, but he plans to soon. He will be on a Visitors Visa. Is your spouse from an ESTA visa country? We're hoping all goes well, since he will be on a tourist visa while our I-130 is processing. I highly suggest your husband, if he visits, has 1) proof of a return ticket home back out of the country and 2) a letter from his employer stating he's expected back at work on a date following the trip. That way it proves to the border patrol that he doesn't plan to overstay
@@DeviOhira no not from a ESTA country. Good luck to you
@@AmirA-zv6uk many people have found this untrue, and are still Able to travel on a visitor visa. its not always a guarantee entry, but it does happen. just be 100% honest with border control that you have a pending application
@@AmirA-zv6uk I believe it will vary from country to country and whether or not you already have an existing visitors visa
Hi, please I need some clarification:
1) I am applying for my Husband and 3 kids (below the ages of 8 years) using form 1-30 (petition for Alien Relative), am I suppose to complete form 1-30 for EACH of these family relatives or just one package for my husband OR do a total of 4 applications of 1-30.
2) Also regarding the current fee of $535.00, does it mean it has to be $535.00 x the 4 relations totally $2,140.00
Awaiting your response/reply.
Thanks
hi there! you can file altogether under 1 account if you filing online you can make your spouse the principal beneficiary - as for the fee I actually am not sure and dont want to misspeak
@@DeviOhira
Thanks.
what if the communication via Viber app is in a diferent language? and there is two years of communication? do we need to get all those messages translated in English language?
I would take the best parts of the communication and translate it. You can even have a friend or family member do it, but make sure they sign a statement and date it saying that they have proficiency in translating and they certify that it has been translated to the best of their ability
Hell mam cal you help me My additional evidence sent but No any response so what well happen plz mam ??
Hi 😊 I was wondering if you had any affidavit of support letter template, I found the cover letter pretty good to organize the information but I can't seem to find a letter template for the I-130 affidavit of support. Id really appreciate it and thanks for the videos!!! 🥰

I got my i130 approval since March 15 2021 but I haven’t received anything thing from nvc when I contacted nvc they said uscis haven’t sent the file as yet it’s been 70 days since the approval letter should I be considered?
I would call uscis to ask and follow it up with a contact form inquiry and choose that you did receive notice in the mail egov.uscis.gov/e-request/Intro.do

I filed online and signed electronicaly but I have just noticed that my signature disappeared. Does anyone had the same issue ?!
oh wow haven't had that experience before, has the app already been submitted? call USCIS and ask if they can see the sig on their end
Devi Ohira The form was already submitted and my signature isn’t there when i open the application snapshot.
I just sent my i485 via mail and I didn’t include the i130. My package won’t get at UsCI until Saturday. Do you think I still have time to send it online? Would that be enough to say that I send it before? I want to avoid my i485 to be send back
does the courier in which you send it have a way to cxl the package? I would file everything in one place - so if you did it online, do everything online. if you submitted hardcopy, submit it all hardcopy
Hi Devi, If i want to do the same in regards to open a bank account, Would you tell me more detail about what i need to do to open an account under both of us since she is not here in USA. It will be with Wells Fargo bank as well. thanks
hi Bay! I dont think the dual account ownership will be possible. under both names if your wife is not physically present in the US with you. My husband happened to be here when we got married, so thats why we were able to open together using his passport and national ID card (2 diff forms) but with that being said, both parties have to be there to physically provide docs and sign
@@DeviOhira - Hello Devi! Can you open a joint bank account with a US Visa number. My wife does not have SS or ITIN. Thank you
@@madisonone8929 hi Madison! Wells Fargo allowed us to open a joint one without my husband's SSN or an iTIN. He just had to provide 2 forms of ID as well as proof of credit or debit account info from other bank institutions
Hi, i am planning to book bind my proof of relationship, you think it will be fine? Do i have to provide 2 copies of my proof of relationship? Thank u
keep an extra copy of everything for yourself before you send it off to USICS so you know what. you sent in and can always reference it later. I wouldn't book bind because they have to take it off to make scanned copies. Just a two hole punch up top with a fastener is best
@@DeviOhira thank'z a lot! I really appreciate it.
