US Immigration from Canada

We're not filing yet, but I want to make sure that I have this all figured out before we do.

I (the American petitioner) am disabled and currently receiving social security disability benefits (which I will lose after getting married, but that's mostly beside the point here). Because I have been disabled since before I was old enough to work, I have no work history, and because I receive no taxable income, I do not file taxes. I'm worried about how this will look in our paperwork and if Immigration will deem it suspicious. I have a few questions here:

1. On the I-129F, should I explain the above in the "additional information" section? Should I write "unemployed" in the "name of employer" section?

2. When it comes time for the I-134, I do not meet the income requirements, but I have a relative who is willing to be a joint sponsor (co-sponsor? are those the same thing?), who can cover the required income amount in full. Do I also need to fill out the form, even though I make no taxable income? If so, should I put down what I get from social security as income?

(As a side note, money for fees/living expenses while my fiancee cannot yet work in the US will not be an issue. My fiancee works, has savings, I have some savings, and I have family who can help us.)

3. Is any of this complicated enough that we should seek out a lawyer, or does it seem like we'll be fine?

I'm probably overthinking all this, but I just worry. I'm anxious not to get anything wrong or give us any reasons to be denied.

Hey y'all, I have a couple questions!

First Question - When looking over the DS-160 form (just trying to gather what I need and get ahead for when the consulate in Montreal finally reopens), theres a section that asks for you to document all the times you have entered the United States from entry date to exit date. The problem is, I live in a border town and have done for the past almost 11 years now since. I've crossed back and forth into the United States almost every other weekend since then (from the age of 13) even for day trips to the shopping malls and grocery stores around Buffalo, NY.

When I met my fianc , we started taking turns going back and forth across the border to visit one another on weekends. He'd come one weekend and I'd go down to Buffalo the next.

I truly don't have any idea how many times I've been in the United States. Not to mention the family trips to Florida I would take every year from the age of 6 months-12 years of age before I immigrated to Canada.

Is there any way to get a comprehensive list that would tell me all the times I've travelled with dates of entry and exit even? I can't get any further with the DS-160 form at the moment because this looming part.

Second Question - When you check your case status on the CEAC website using the case tracker what is the difference between the first ready and the second ready? With all the stress of everything and having to reschedule our wedding I hadn't paid too much attention to what it said in the little box underneath the "Ready" part.

Third Question - I was planning on flying from Canada to the US in a few weeks as travelling to the US by air is still allowed for now. I've checked and saw that they're still granting ESTA's which led me to believe that VWP countries are still allowed to enter too. My ESTA is still valid so I don't need to apply for another, however I do get an I-94 when I travel by land which lasts me 3 months, I haven't travelled by air to the US in years, but I read its just given with the stamp when you fly into the country. I also saw that travellers from the UK are only banned if they've been present in the country in the last 14 days.

I'm a Canadian Permanent Resident with a UK passport, I've lived in Canada since 2009 I know that routine visa services have been suspended but since the I-94 isn't an actual visa will I still be allowed into the US if I fly there?

Again I have a valid ESTA already and haven't been present in the UK in the past 14 days. I just want to make sure everything will be okay before I book any flights.

Thank you all!

Which affidavit do we have to bring to the K1 interview at the US Montreal consulate?

I've read online it's just the I-134, but in an email from Montreal it says to bring ALSO the I-864...

Hi, a few questions regarding the I-129F:

1) Employment History - End Date field for current employment: This field is only numbers and slash format with my version of Adobe at least. Can I write 'PRESENT' in ink after printing the forms? This is the case for both petitioner and beneficiary.

2) Beneficiary Information Item 38. "If your beneficiary is currently in the United States, complete Item Numbers 38a-38h."

Fiance is currently not in the US. Do I still fill out Item 38a-38h?

Typically I would think not, because of the "If". The I-129F instructions from USCIS website don't mention anything about the "If fiance is currently in the US" part. To me, the I-I29F instructions imply to fill out Items 38a-38h regardless. It also seems like important information to leave out. The evidence section states to include the I-94 and passport number. Can anyone please clarify?

(I ticked Yes for Item 37 as beneficiary has been in the US to visit several times)

3) Evidence: Boarding passes vs airline booking confirmations. Would

booking confirmations help? Or do they assume you could have changed your flight? Fiance and I also have passport stamps from 2 trips. Fiance has bus tickets which are more like booking confirmations also, from Greyhound trips to visit me in the US.

4) Should "N/A" or "None" be used in every field not filled out? I have read that suggestion on the forums. In the same case of numeric and slash only fields, would I write "N/A" or "None"?

5) Payment G-1450: If my beneficiary pays by credit card would a non-US, issued in Canada credit card be okay? Alternatively can ask her local bank if US money orders are drawn on US banks, which I think might be the alternative.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have a habit of overthinking things mainly because I don't want to overlook anything also. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Hello everyone, like so many of you, my fianc and I are patiently waiting for our embassy to reopen for interviews. Since we want to be as prepared as possible to prevent any further delays at the interview stage, I was wondering if anyone has an exhaustive list for reasons a case can go into administrative processing after the interview? I know the basic reasons - background check, incorrect documents, original copies of documents needed, etc. but does anyone have a complete list? Thanks
