    Not crazy at all. Decide based on your mutual priorities.

    So, yes two visas issued. I misremembered his explanation. Still there never has been a limit on K1 visas. IMBRA requires asking for a waiver for a second I-129F petition filed within two years, but it's best to make the waiver request no matter how long it's been. I'm one of the few members who was here and became fully versed on IMBRA when it was enacted in 2006.

    I meant exactly what I said. His clarification indicated he filed two petitions. One visa was issued and used but the fiance left the USA before marriage and before 90 days. Requiring a waiver for the second petition within two years is not a limit of two K1 visas. The limit IS on petition filing/approval. You responded to your RFE and the waiver was approved BEFORE petition approval. USCIS does not issue visas.

    Exactly, but note there is no such thing as an NVC interview. You are waiting for an interview with a US Consular Officer. NVC, will schedule that, when a date is supplied by the Consulate.

    To be clear, the OP did not have any approved K1 visas, and there is not a limit for K1 visas. The limitation is on filing of I-129F for fiancee filings, but is overcome with a waiver request, usually.
  12. pushbrk
    There is no numerical limit, period, but no, IMBRA does not apply to spouse petitions.

    And that is absolutely correct. The affidavit of support is not just about qualifying. Primarily, it is a contract to repay the US Taxpayer for any public charge benefits the immigrant receives.
  20. pushbrk
    That's good. It looks worse if all three are Ukrainian, but not a deal killer. The totality of circumstances comes into play here. They key will be the actual bona fide current relationship and the evidence you have to support that. Evidence of time spent together in person, is the most important.
  21. pushbrk
    Possible, yes. Note that your previous history regarding those petitions and beneficiaries are going to be relevant in your new process. Any who currently have green cards are going to count in your household size regarding sponsorship income requirement, and if it appears you are serving as a serial source of US Immigration Benefits, you may have a petition or visa denied. The actual facts matter, but having filed previous petitions is not in and of itself a disqualifier. The I-130 asks about previous petitions and results. You must be accurate and truthful when you answer.
  22. pushbrk
    Safer to wait until you are back working, Since you don't know whether you will go back to this job, it is possible but risky to state your current income as the amount you are receiving in short term disability income. Your choice. In my opinion, advising a joint sponsor for responsible and financially capable adults, is just not something I would do unless it is really necessary and the person has easy access to somebody willing to sign that contract and take on the associated obligation. Many of us, are proud of and attached to our adult independence. It's much easier to type the words "joint sponsor" than obtaining and using one is.
  23. pushbrk
    You are correct that Boiler's answer is vague. Read mine again. I'll be a bit more specific. Once he is back to work, there is no need to mention a short or two or three month absence from work. Until he is back to work, he is NOT WORKING, and unemployed with no income. That means he will not qualify as your sponsor. He needs to get back to work before completing, signing and submitting the affidavit of support.
  24. pushbrk
    Depends on the actual facts on the date he will sign the form. If he is back to work by then, he will state his current income as it will be for the next 12 months. If he is not back to work, he cannot state that he is employed, or that he has any current income to use to qualify as your sponsor.
  25.    pushbrk reacted to a post in a topic: Friend was scammed. Is there recourse?
  26. pushbrk
    No, not really any kind of recourse at all. Unfortunately scamming foreigners is an actual industry in many countries including the Philippines.
  27. pushbrk
    It seems your Filipino attorney did not consider the US Immigration part of the equation.
  28. pushbrk
    Correct. This happens when there is reason to verify your identity relative to some issue that may or may not be relevant to you. Could be somebody with a similar name, or yourself, with a previous immigration related issue. The biometrics will rule you out or in to the relevant concern.
