but he had an Embassy income verification so it is accepted for both the initial Non-O and extensions so again I am confused why income verification from his embassy is not acceptable for his extension of stay.
surely they would have required that for the original Non-O. If his proof of income granted him his Non-O why not also for his extension. This makes no sense.
being ex-military is irrelevant. Having a VA disability is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is you satisfy the financial requirements of the DTV.
