Quick question about the resume for the interview. Does it need to be translated from English to Chinese at all?

Great, thanks! I think we are all set!

One final question about the I-864 (I hope). Am I correct in saying that nowhere on my husband's I-864 form will he need to include information about our co-sponsor's assets. Correct? We are not completing an I-864A so I assume this is the case? His mother has completed a separate I-864 wither income details.

Also, do I the beneficiary, need to show anything by way of funds? The instructions say that I will only include any income that will continue to be earned once in the US, of which there will be none until I secure employment. Outside of that, are bank statements or any such thing required of me?

Hi there! Having read this thread, I just went to the above thread to check on the status of my application as a matter of interest, and much to my suprise, my application says "Ready" and that I can now go to the consulate website to book an interview!! I am not one for looking a gift horse in the mouth but just want to be sure that this means that I can actually start looking into booking the interview. The reason I am surprised is that I only submitted my documents to the CITIC bank (in Shanghai) on Monday (5 days ago). I know there are many documents to be prepared before we can schedule the interview anyway, but just wanted to be sure that I can take this as confirmation that we are ready to move onto the next steps. Very excited either way!

Congratulations talsi!! That must be a massive weight off your shoulders and gives me (and many others going through the process) some hope!! Best of luck as you start your new life! Do you know how long it will be before you get your passport back? Good for you!!!

Thank you Randy!

Hi folks, My husband is currently trying to sort out his taxes for 2013. My question is, since he is late in doing so, but is filing for taxes in the year 2013, does he file under :"single" status since we only got married January 20014? Ie since he *was* single during the timeframe for which he is filing, does he file as single (even though we are married now).

Hello All, I am a newbie on this site and am already super pleased with all the useful information I have found on this former. My husband is American and i am from Zimbabwe. We got married in January and have since submitted the I-130 application which has now been approved (yay!) and are now waiting for further instructions. Regarding the next steps, I wanted to ask about tax filing in particular. I know my husband will need to submit some sort of proof of filing but given he has been in China for 4 years, he has not had to file in the US as his wages fall beneath the threshhold. My question is then, what does he need to show as proof of taxes? I also wanted to find out if it would be worth having a co-sponsor (ie his mother) to help to support the move. We are in a good position financially, but will not have jobs when we get to the US. Will this be an issue? I also wanted to find out whether the Guangzhou field office will be contacting us via email or snail mail. Thank you so much!!
