US Immigration from Cambodia

Wife got a biometrics appointment notice in the mail.

Appointment is for next week. In Nevada.

We're in Rhode Island.

Google maps lists a USCIS Providence field office in Johnston, RI and a USCIS Application Support Center in Cranston, RI.

Can she just walk into one of those at the appointed date and time, and if so, which one?

Has anyione else had this happen?

Filed I-751 for my wife on October 3.

On December 9, saw her online myuscis account was updated to say:

"Case Was Updated To Show Fingerprints Were Taken

As of December 9, 2022, fingerprints relating to your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number XXX have been applied to your case." No mailed paper notice.

On December 10 submitted change of address from Las Vegas to Houston and got email confirmation.

Then on December 17 USCIS sends a mailed notice to our old Las Vegas address with appointment to take biometrics in Las Vegas next month. Code 3. Her online MyUSCIS account doesn't reflect this.

Please make it make sense.

Does anyone have first hand experience using zoom wedding and spouse from Cambodia arriving usa ? I understand Philippines other applicants it has worked , but have yet to read Cambodia success story /or failure . Seems no one tried it yet (I hope I'm wrong I haven't read up recently)

Reviving this post, apologies if maybe I should start my own post, but I'm planning on doing a Zoom wedding with my Cambodian fianc next month. I'm nervous at the lack of anecdotes around the Zoom marriage in Cambodia specifically... I have read many success stories, but knowing that it may be more strict in Cambodia is giving me a little bit of pause.

My partner and I are planning on getting married via Utah Zoom ceremony as soon as possible. We had previously submitted an I-129F (K-1) but are now planning on withdrawing it and submitting an I-130 for CR-1. I have a few questions before we do this.

• I was married (but separated for a long time) until just a few months ago. The finalized date of my divorce, per my divorce decree, was in October 2022. Does that pose any problems (or red flags) if my new partner I were to get married only 2 months later (December 2022) via Zoom?
• If we go this route, the location of our marriage would be Provo, Utah, I believe. Will this be a problem (or red flag) when they see that he has never been to the USA before, but we were married in Utah?
• Is it a problem (or red flag) if the beneficiary is currently unemployed?
• We have never lived together, but we did buy a condo together in his country in October. It s a new build and it ll be a couple of years before it s actually finished. We intend to submit the paperwork as bonafide evidence. Any issues with this? Should we submit other evidence of bonafide marriage, just in case? If so, I think it d just have to be sworn statements because we don t have any of the other suggested items.
• Will I need certified copies of court documentation for criminal records at any point in the CR-1 process? I know it s not needed at the time of application, but what about at the time of interview? I don't have any original certified copies, only photocopies.

Thanks in advance!

I went to the court recently to request certified copies of a court case I had more than 15 years ago, but they said since the case was dismissed after I completed my probation and it happened so long ago, the case files were not migrated to their new system. I asked if they will provide a statement saying that they no longer have the case files and they said no, they don't do that. So I sent the one and only original copy of my court records with the I-129F application.

Now I'm considering withdrawing the K-1, getting married (via Utah Zoom ceremony), and applying for the CR-1. I know the court records are not asked for during the application process, but according to the immigration guide on this website, these documents will (may?) be needed for the interview.

I do have photocopies of the certified court docs, but not the originals. Will I get them back if I withdraw, or do I take my chances with the photocopies?
