What are some valid reasons or excuses not to sponsor someone for U.S. citizenship? I am trying to avoid getting into any dishonest or illegal mess they are involved in as I live a pretty straightforward life.

I have a second cousin who wants me to sponsor him for U.S. citizenship. He recently got married to an American business owner, but needs a second sponsor because he works off the books and his wife is not entirely honest on their taxes.

​

I live within the lines of law, work a white collar job, pay my taxes, etc. I’m very hesitant to get myself involved in this situation and take responsibility for someone who’s a bit of a wildcard. Although this person is relatively loyal to me, I don’t know how amenable he will be to me about his life decisions now that he is married to a person very similar to him. I also don’t want to be responsible for someone who has shady dealings/business practices (NOT criminal) and cheats on taxes, nor do I want to share my social security and tax info with his wife. Although this seems like a pretty clear cut decision, I’m getting pressure from my closest Uncle (who thinks of him like a son) to help him with this. I also risk my relationship with my cousin’s family who have always been super kind to me. So I need to find a way to say that I cannot help him (perhaps for a legal reason) without looking bad and destroying relationships. Can someone please advise on how I can do this?

Immigration to USA [F2B or other options]

Hello, I would like to ask for your opinion. ​ My family received Green Card in 1998(Social security number etc.), we went to the USA once (me and my mother), however my father stayed to work and was returning home for a few months and coming back to the USA and doing this for 20 years, me and my mother stayed in Slovakia. He is paying taxes for himself and our family. My and mother's card were not renewed but from my father's side it was all time. I am currently 22 years old, born X.06.1998 I wrote to embassy in Slovakia and they wrote this: I regret to inform you, that then there is not a possibility to renew your card. The green card is valid only for one year if you are out of the USA. If your father is living and working in the US and has a green card, he may apply for the Immigrant visa for you in category F2B if you are not married- There is a five years waiting time since this category is numerically limited. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/v

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our
