Some Questions Regarding Immigration (F2A)

Hello, everyone. I need some help answering these questions. I am a soon-to-be LPR and my fiance is in the US on an F-1 visa. After I receive my green card (currently being sent to me), we are planning on getting married and initiate the immigration process for her as well. Both of us are full time students and do not work. We have been surviving on private student loans yearly so we are not sure if we could afford an attorney (if we have to, we will. But neither of us has ever done anything or been illegal so I assume it would be an uncomplicated case. She entered the states on an F-1). Basically I will be petitioning for her to live in the US as an LPR. So here are the questions.

  1. Does either of us need to prove our sufficient financial ability (i.e. a bank statement)? If yes, How many years do we have to show the financial support for and can the sources be changed once the beneficiary has her own source of income/job? Can a student loan be used for this purpose?
  2. If the sponsor cannot show financial support how much money does the joint sponsor have to show on an annual basis?
  3. Can other forms such as I-765(Application for Employment Authorization), I-944(Declaration of Self-Sufficiency) be filed later separately?
  4. What documents can be concurrently filed along with I-130 (i.e. I-485, I-765, etc.)?
  5. What supporting documents are necessary from our parents? (i.e. evidence of parental relationship from home country)

Thank you.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

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 ...
