    DV Lottery of K1 Visa - Can I file for both?
    I applied for the DV lottery 2025 and hope to be selected this year. My fiancé and I discovered that there is a fiancé visa for the USA. Do you think if we apply for the K1 visa but are selected for the DV lottery that we can stop the fiancé visa process? What are the timelines and options here :)?

    Confused about steps after marriage
    My fiancee arrived last month on K1 fiance visa and we got married yesterday. It seems from what I have seen online that I made a mistake by not getting SSN prior to marriage? I am going to the SSN office on Monday to gather more information... also worried about employment authorization and travel authorization(s). Thanks for any insights!

    Tourist visa cancelled by CBP agent.  Can we still get a CR1 or K1 Visa?
    Upon my gf's most recent arrival, her tourist visa was cancelled at the airport due to her frequent visits last year and suspicion of working here. She was denied entry and sent back same day. Is a CR1 or K1 visa process an option still? I would appreciate any advice or tips you can provide!

    Recognition of Divorce - Questions?

    Here is my understanding of divorced process, if married to a pinay and being US Citizen and non muslim marriage: If US Citizen petitions for divorce then pinay could get recognition of divorce in Philippines, If the pinay files for divorce then the marriage can never be divorced only annulled.

    Part 2:

    How big of a pain is it for a pinay to get a recognition of divorce done in the Philippines court system? Is it like an annullement where it takes a long time and lots of pesos? Does anyone know the timeline and estimated peso amount for a "Recognition of Divorce" and I assume a Philippine lawyer is involved?

    NVC is again asking for files already uploaded + slight rant

    I legit am unsure of who is behind their own workers/computers. I feel like they don't check through what is uploaded.

    I finally figured out the household member bit regarding their initial demand of putting my spouse as one (when I did for the 864). They were demanding he basically fill out his own 864 (some intending immigrants can, but he isn't eligible to).

    When I inquired about it, they outright ignored my question and went on to say "upload a W-2, 1099, and Schedule form or we cannot proceed".

    I worked abroad. I don't have a W-2. I have the English translated equivalent with an explanation and it was accepted.

    I uploaded my 1099. It was accepted.

    My schedule form was one of the first rounds of submitted documents and was accepted. All they are asking for, more or less, is there. Before they sent this response.

    Also for my joint sponsor his California license was enough for domicile but mine wasn't for my own? Huh?

    It feels like I'm going in circles and the people responding in inquiries are just AI Bots or something.

    Hi! I have a question related to the employers address.
    If I am working remotely, do I write the address of my home in employers address section? Or do I write the address of the company I am hired by?

    Birth certificate with the AOS package and other

    I'm filing for adjustment of status after being on k1 visa

    the official uscis website is requiring a birth certificate with the form i485

    I already submitted a birth certificate and a translation for the k1 visa a few months ago

    Do I need to submit again with this package or not because I read in some places that they would still have it on record but I'm not sure ?

    Did anyone face a problem when they didn't re submit it ?

    and if I do, do I need a translation, and does the translator needs to be in the USA or I can submit the same translation from my country ?

    and what about the police record if I have no previous record?

    Also do I need all the tax returns for the past 3 years or just the one tax return for the last year for the affidavit of support?

    Also if I file within the last week of my 90 days k1 status would there be a risk of me being in no status for a while, like how quick do they process the status thing?

    I know it's a lot of questions and this process is many layers and many elements in one thing and I'm trying to do my best that's all

    I find a lot of help and support in this forum

    Thank you

    I-751 with 10 year green card
    8:04 pm yesterday

    Hello and happy new year! My husband s AOS was adjudicated 6 weeks shy of our 2nd year anniversary. We were surprised to see he was granted a 10-year card. I had read on here previously that if you don t qualify for it, it doesn t matter if you get it. We decided to wait to deal with the issue by just applying for ROC when his card should expire. His application has already been mailed in with the last page for extra info explaining the incorrectly issued green card.

    I just had a thought that maybe his card should have been sent in as well, instead of just a copy. But I m pretty sure this idea is a terrible one as he will need his card. I came here in the hope I could find some posts in the forums about what others have done in this situation. But I m either terrible at searching or not seeing anything.

    Can anyone point me in the direction of information about applying for ROC with a 10-year green card? Thank you!
