Hello,I'm petitioning my mother to come to US.My income isn't enough so my fianc is willing to be a co sponsor.I moved in with my fianc 2 years ago,we file our taxes separately,I'm ready send my affidavit of support but I'm confused which one does he have to fill?I-864 or I-864A?or both since he is joint sponsor and also a household member?TIA!

Hello,

Like many people my wife and I are considering options for our futures. We are both retired and have been married over 20 years.

I am native born Canadian and now hold US citizenship also.

My wife is a US citizen. She has however had a Canadian permanent resident card - twice before. The first was acquired shortly after we married in the US and she moved to Canada to be with me. A couple of years later we moved to the US to help with an illness in her family. I got my green card for the US with much help from Visajourney folks! After the illness was resolved we stayed in the US for a few years (4) and when the economy fell apart and I lost my job we ended up getting an offer to move back to Canada. My wife once again applied for and was granted a Canadian permanent residency card. Again due to family issues we returned to the US after 2.5 years. We have been back in the US for 11 years.

My questions are regarding how we go about getting her approved for permanent residency in Canada again.

1. Is there some process other than starting all over again?

2. Can we move there and have her apply from Canada or do we have to get approval before she arrives?

I am sure I will have other questions but let's start there.

Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.

Hello

I am wondering if there are any time based exemptions of the 5 years for the mentally and physically disabled to file the N400.

Hello. I apologize in advance for any mistakes, because my English is not rlly perfect.
I am a citizen of Russia. We met with my fiance once in Turkey and stayed there together for 2 weeks. It was in December 2023. We filed a petition in April 2024 and received approval in July. All this time, we communicate in Discord almost 24/7, we literally have daily calls for 10-20 hours and endless text messages.
So, the US Embassy doesnt work in Russia, so we moved our case to Hong Kong. The interview is planned for January. We want to meet there again, and at the same time visit Thailand before the interview itself. Then we will go back to Hong Kong, and he will wait for me at the building while I go through the interview.
We do not have any criminal or illegal stays. We are the same age (25 years old).
But I am worried that two meetings may not be enough for visa approval.
The Hong Kong embassy has few reviews and is poorly known for Russian citizens. Could we run into difficulties due to the low number of mettings? thank you

Just need thoughts and/or opinions on a case matter..

A us citizen is petitioning a fianc ..

the fiance (beneficary) 3 years ago made an illegal entrance through ground and was caught 4 times. 3 of those times fingerprints and pictures were taken and sent to jail .. only lasted for a few days and sent on a bus back to the border and the fiance voluntarily went back to their country. Was given no documents no paper NOTHING!!!! whatsoever. Not considered deported if voluntarily went back. Pictures were taken in mcallen tx & mexico

So.. the petitioner had the fiance fill out fingerprint cards to turn into and send to FBI and FOIA to look if appeared in the system to fill out the k1 fiance visa without any issues.

the results came back in 2 months .. and showed clear with nothing was found with the information we gave meaning the fiance has a clean and clear background.

The petitioner took those results to 3 lawyers and they all said there was no problem in processing the k1 fiance visa because that indicated that the fiance was never deported. And has a clean background.

The question is.. where is the fiance information at then? The fingerprints & the photos taken?

will the fiance have problems in the interview when asked have you ever been to the us what will they answer?

The petitioner sent those results along with the I-129 .. so far no rfe it s been 51 days since uscis received.

Please share thoughts or opinions.
