US Immigration from Australia

My husband (AU citizen) was just approved for his CR1. We were told we'd receive his visa to enter the country in his passport in a few days and that the physical Green Card wouldn't be processed until we enter the US. Does that mean that my husband can't secure employment until he has the physical Green Card in his possession or does the visa we will get in a few weeks act as an interim and he can go ahead and try to secure a job?

Hi,

My partner and i are getting married on the 1st of February and we are complying everything in order for our visa. This is currently the type of evidence we have and we were wondering if this would suffice?

Marriage certificate (1st of feb)

Joint debit bank account

12 month rental lease

Joint car insurance w/ petitioners car - listed driver on beneficiaries car (as it's under finance can't be joint insurance).

Airbnb receipts (with both names).

Boarding passes / passport stamps.

. 20 pictures including family, friends and wedding

. x1 Screenshot picture with the petitioners family & friends.

. 8 screen shot text messages from family members referring to each other.

x2 Affidavits of support from beneficiaries uncle and sister (if needed)

Will it matter we don't have much photo evidence with my partners family?

• We have screen shots of the petitioners mother thanking me (the beneficiary) and me talking to my partners sister on instagram.
• I work as a nurse and struggle to find time to FaceTime them as i'm always at work or night shift, considering the time difference it makes it insanely difficult.

We are unable to get joint health insurance as my partner is on a student visa and has to have her own type of insurance here in Australia.

Should i considering putting her on my credit card as an authorised user

or will this evidence be enough to prove our marriage?

Thanks for your help!

My partner & i both live in Australia and we are looking at the online application for the CR1 visa. In contact details it won't accept the Australian area code for our mobile number here. Should we consider putting one of my family or friends? What did anyone else do considering we reside outside of the states. Thanks.

Now I understand why some embassies may be stricter on certain things but I ve had a look at a few P3s and notice the required documents can be quite different.

Not only that, the formatting of the P3 is so drastically different it s unbelievable. Isn t the process suppose to be more uniform?

Even take the UK and Aus for example, while the requirements are similar the two embassies put different emphasis on what is most important and their websites are different as if the IT department is local and different embassies don t consult each other.

Is it really still so local that standard procedures were developed in house 20 years ago and not updated?

Hey guys,

I m just checking to see if anyone who has had their interview and been approved can confirm that the amount of copies I need to provide are as per the coversheet?

For example the i134 is greyed out on the checklist for the original... so I only need to bring 1 in total and not two copies?

Birth certificate for example has a place to tick both original and copy so that s clear.

I just want to double check because they put emphasis on the copies but it seems to only be the birth and police certificate that need a copy? (for a standard born in aus, never married case).

As most of it is copy only is that only 1 and not 2 copies?
