dnoblett Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 1) Do not need joint sponsor, only if current and future income falls below $19,000 US per year, working for a company like HP I suspect being paid much more than that. 2) Before tax, is the agreed salary that current job is paying. 3) What is current income, take weekly gross income before tax and multiply by 52 4) Tax list? Not factored into support, only income before tax. What is current yearly salary, as in what would be made if starting today, what would be the total made by this time next year? Link to comment
bullmastiff Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Letter of Employment please ! include that in I 864 docs. Link to comment
dnoblett Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Letter of Employment please ! include that in I 864 docs. Yep, a letter from HR or supervisor at place of employment. Basically, your employer letter should state "To whom it may concern: (first name,last name) has been employed full-time with the XYZ Company since 200_ as a (name of your job), and is an employee in good standing with an annual salary of $XXXX. Signed, John Doe, Supervisor (or whatever title)" The letter should be on company letterhead. Link to comment
david_dawei Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Everyone could give me some suggestion or help to analysis case You asked... hold your breath. Why are you here asking and not your husband? I cannot tell you the red flag I get from this... This is just MY opinion. You know way too much about the process... I cannot tell you the red flag I get from this... This is just MY opinion. Your advantages are just 'ok'. But you postulate a lot of 'evidence' which you never provide here... Disadvantages are NOT economy assurance but WAGE assurances: Chinese wages + American wages... FORGET Chinese wages! That has NO FUTURE MEANING. DO you understand the filing requirements? Again; why is he not here asking these questions???? Your being apart for almost a year is also not good... I can't say enough the wrong direction your questions go. Plan a 2 year idea. My Analysis; My Opinion. Easily forgotten. Link to comment
Kyle Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Really, my first thought was similar to David's. Where's the husband? Link to comment
Randy W Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 There are MANY American husbands of Chinese wives who are not Candle members. There are several Chinese wives of American husbands who ARE members of Candle. Would you say the same things about Joanne? Why is this (the husband not posting the questions) ANY kind of a flag?

Why is this (the husband not posting the questions) ANY kind of a flag?I don't compare many years past to today. I here now; posting now; answering now. Why would I appeal to Joanne? Your above that. I am posting to today's climate... and my intuition of seeing posts; and the absense of the man posting... I can't force intuition on you or another. IT IS JUST MY OPINION. Easily forgotten.

david_dawei Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 That is AFTER the FACT... we are talking two different things again and again... aside from the point of the thread. I'll bow out. Link to comment
Randy W Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I just don't mind at all disagreeing with you - sorry. Link to comment
sichuan red Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 Just a thought, but why is everyone assuming the husband is an American??? I could not determine that from the original post.Another point is that we don't know what kind of visa they applying for either. Too many assumptions being made without facts. Some rather harsh comments considering the above. Link to comment
