Hello! First of all, I want to thank VJ for the help over the past two years, ive been an avid reader although im not one to post much.

My timeline for my i-129f is as follows.
July 2019 - Application sent off
Jan 2020 - I-797 received
April 2020 - First Interview

April 2020 - First interview cancelled due to Australian Lockdown
Feb 2021 - Two weeks notice for new interview and failure to show up = cancellation of visa
Feb 2021 - I-129f Approved

Okay, so a few quick questions, because I found that I stressed so much before the interview, that when i went into the interview, it was not as i expected and i was stressing over nothing. I had everything required on that checklist, and i had it all organised so it was in order for them.

1. When moving, is there a certain amount of money I should be moving with? I figure this will only be an issue with what im about to ask in my next question
2. What is the process at the airport? Do you then have another interview with Homeland? If so, what are the chances of them for some reason saying no? Like, my partner did a affidavit of support obviously, but are they also expecting me to take money over? And if they deem my money isnt enough, will they refuse entry? If it is another full on interview, what types of questions do they ask?

Hi there, I figured I would add positive information I ve inquired on on the behalf of my fianc who lives in Australia.

I asked Sydney Embassy if there are any delays with appointments. Response below:

Public Response: Thank you for your inquiry.

Yes we are able to schedule K1 visa applicants. There are currently many appointments available.

As this point, once the case is received in our office, we are able to schedule an appointment within 10 business days.

Thank you,

Good luck to those upcoming on their NOA2s soon

HELP & ADVICE REQUIRED *Case transfer without notice

First of all, congratulations to those who have received your approvals on your I-130s!

I am a late June 2020 filer and I have yet to receive any update on my case on USCIS website. My spouse is a US Citizen and our case was assigned to Nebraska Service Center. It was later transferred to Potomac Service Center without any notification. To my understanding, they should have updated the case with a transfer notice but we never received anything via email, text, mail. and even under our USCIS account. We contacted them and they were not able to tell us exactly when was our case transferred or why was it transferred. All they said was, it was transferred probably around July 2020 and you should have received a notice BUT we never did. It has already been almost 8months and still the status has not changed since June 2020. My status still reflects "Case received and email notice was sent". And the officer told us that our case was actually opened for review sometime in August 2020 but then again, we never got any updates at all. Potomac has a much longer processing time compared to Nebraska which is 6-8months. I contacted them because I was not able to submit a case inquiry online when my PD was past due.

It is very frustrating to be left in a limbo like that. I've seen multiple June 2020 filers at Nebraska Service Center (with a later PD than us) getting approvals and already at the NVC stage while here I am not knowing what to expect or do. I felt like we are being singled out and transferred for no apparent reason. If they can review cases with a much later PD than us, why was my case specifically transferred out? And why was there no transfer notice at all? If my case was opened and reviewed, why is there no update at all?

I have seen on USCIS website that you can request for a expedite on your case if it is a clear USCIS error. Can anyone enlighten me if that is possible or share your similar experiences?

I just feel this is very unfair treatment especially since I paid the fees and collate the documents/evidences just like everyone else.

Thank you and God Bless.

Do I Have To Pay Tax Transferring Money To The US?

Hi!
I saved up for a house deposit in my home country and I want to move it here from my original bank to my US bank directly as it just seems the easiest way to do it - unless anyone has any better ideas.
Anyway, do I have to pay tax on my own funds?

Thank you!

I just checked my status and my daughters status today. We applied in August, 2020 and sent in our RFIE for I944 in January which is our last update. Never had a ready to schedule interview or an interview scheduled. It skipped straight to RFE received to new card is being produced. I thought this was only for longer applications? Is this a glitch.. I don't want to get excited or anything. I didn't expedite or anything but I am hopeful this is actually happening?

February 19, 2021 New Card Is Being Produced
January 5, 2021 We received your response for Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status.
