Well, our local Chinese cuisine joints meet all of those except for #9 .... "Your order of six combo plates and four sides of pot stickers came to $2.99." I have no idea where that place is.

Honestly, if "its my fiance's dream to have some sort of celebratory event in Sayulita, Mexico since her father's side still has some family ties over there" then I would do that. I certainly wouldn't ruin my fiance's dream just to save what amounts to probably a little time for the immigration process.

Something to consider. Health can be a very fickle thing and often people don't just die suddenly in their sleep. My father (a US citizen since birth) for example got sick with a cold/flu and got bronchitis and as a result went to the hospital and there he acquired C-diff. To make a long story short, this was the beginning of an almost 3 year long and very unexpected battle which, sadly, he lost in the end. Now, I am pointing this out because in those 3 years it required multiple stays at long term care facilities/rehabs as well as hospital stays and constant battles between private health insurance and Medicare and Medicaid, hiring an attorney to sort it all out, and basically draining him of any penny he had left. The expense of the overall care was enormous and I can't imagine what would have happened if he was an aging, recently arrived immigrant with no or minimal healthcare coverage (and most won't cover LTC). Now, if someone is flush with cash maybe it's not something to be concerned with but the worst case scenarios should be considered carefully when making these kinds of decisions. In any case good luck.

PGA replied to vanhiscers87's topic in General Immigration-Related Discussion
I noticed that most, if not all of the reports that I have read are written by "journalists" who have either absolutely no understanding of immigration law and policies, or they purposefully omit important facts from the headlines, or both (usually both). -

tourist visa for me to visit her?

Yeah, I was planning on waiting like a week cuz I have heard that sometimes is an issue but I (well, my wife more than me) am a little worried about the 3 month absence at the beginning.

Convicted double murderer executed by firing squad in South Carolina

Hi All! Ok, so my wife received her IR-1 visa several years ago and we entered the US (Resident Since) 08/28/2022. We left the US on 09/12/2022 to go back to Peru to deal with ending our lease, packing/selling our stuff, etc. We returned to the US on 12/16/2022, and aside from a two short trips back to Peru (4 days, 9 days) since then, we have been residing in the US. Her eligible date to submit the N-400 (90 days previous) is 05/30/2025. My question is should we wait extra time or just apply in June? Any recommendations?
-
And, to be fair, I was thinking this should be like the old days....out in the city/town square with concession vendors walking around selling beverages and snacks.

I honestly don't have a problem with that. If they were caught dead to rights...

I'd like to see the Guillotine make a come back.

Trump Announces 'Gold Card' Visa Program Costing $5 Million

My wife had a B2 and we used it for years to go back and forth (I was living in Peru) even after the I-130 was approved, but at the interview they issued a 221g and voided the B2 (so there was a several month period where we were in complete limbo and had we not been able to overcome the 221g requirements, our future US travel vacations would have been nil) so consider that as a possibility when planning.

PGA replied to Ger Slzr's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
When my wife and I first met, I travelled back and forth to Peru so many times the airline flight attendants all knew my name and the customs officers in both countries were beginning to think I was a drug mule. On the bright side though, I do believe the absence in between did make the heart grow fonder. Just curious though, when did you file (it would be great if you could fill out the timeline)? -
I can only imagine that this would raise eyebrows over at USCIS.

Maybe it's a regional thing but MOST, not all, things I have purchased from Aldi is pretty good. Their fish selection here is excellent and it's my go-to place. Yeah, I like Costco too but the closest one to me is too far. Word is they're supposed to be building one closer but I haven't seen anything yet.

even though it's been 2 1/2 years?

OK. Where do we stand on me including a letter confessing to being an idiot?
