US Immigration from Canada

So, Ive been hearing a lot of people saying Canadians can visit the US, so I looked it up and found that the border closed thing, is only LAND based.

They all say we can fly there. What do you all think?

Hello there,

I am weighing the pros and cons of AOS on a visitor visa in order to stay with my US husband. My main reason is uncertainty; I have no idea when my interview will be scheduled (consular processing interviews cancelled due to covid) and I also have no idea if travel restrictions and mandatory quarantines will lift or will be lifted then reinstated in the fall.

With the i-131 travel document (how long does it take to get one of those??) can you go back and forth to visit friends and family (in Canada specifically) in general or do you actually have to provide specific dates? Why would they reject you if you have one of these documents? Thanks!!

Hey y'all!

I had a question about working remotely for a Canadian company while living permanently in the US (I'm going to be entering the states on my K1 visa this July). I will get paid in Canadian dollars and have a Canadian bank account open to have my wages deposited in here. Is this allowed according to the rules of the k1? Also, the company in which I work for is Canadian, has international offices overseas but not in the states.

My fianc e is concerned that working remotely will complicate things down the line such as filing my taxes, however, I disagree. I don't have major assets in Canada.

I've never really filed taxes by myself, and always had my dad do it for me but it shouldn't be too difficult. I know that when I file my taxes for this year I will have worked half the year in Canada and the other half in the states, does this still mean I file as a non-resident?

I've also read somewhere that if you have a tax-free savings account and physically reside/work outside of Canada, the funds in this account are subject to be taxed up to 50%. Is this true?

Does anyone have any information regarding this? I would appreciate any help thank you!

Hi guys! so I was looking at my application (sent it Jan 30) so I am still waiting on a response obviously.. AND I noticed two mistakes that I did..

FIRST: I only added one address for my the past five years but I haven't been in this address for five years so i needed to add a second one

SECOND: The were two questions: one that asked where I would be filing change of status and I answered and I also answered that he lives outside of the country..

I guess I didn't understand the question of the change of status because I thought he would come here once approved and then we would have to go through the USCIS office to get the actual green card...I now understand the whole process

My husband actually lives in Canada and all of the evidence plus his address indicates that he is not in the US, are these silly mistakes going to affect us?

Also I e-filed and so when I download the application on the website it looks so different..

I have several questions so I've split my post into 2 part. I am new to this, so hoping I'm posting in the right forum, as people seem to be picky about that. Please bear with me.

Part 1.

Upon reading the DS-260 Exemplar I found on NVC website, one question in particular asks if I've had any other visas before. In 2011 I applied for and received a study visa. I then entered the U.S. and, being an immature 18 year old, dropped out of University the next day, leaving the America and driving back to Canada that same day. I then drove back down to the border a month or so later with my dad to drop off my visa with the border because I didn't think I should have had it with me in Canada when I was no longer attending school in the States.

Things the DS-260 asks:

visa classification - I don't know how to find this out

visa number - I don't know

whether it was cancelled or revoked - I'm guessing it would be considered cancelled.. but am not sure.

Is there anyone who has knowledge of this or who can point me to someone who does?

Part 2.

As for the I-864. My husband is my sponsor, and his father has been kind enough to be a joint sponsor since my husband is living and studying in Canada and doesn't have a current American income. From other posts I've read, it's a good idea to have the MIL file form I-864a if the joint sponsor and his/her spouse file taxes jointly. We will have her do so, but we are just unsure about how to fill out the forms.

The way I see it, we have two options:

Option 1: On I-864 part 6 question 7, Put down FIL's individual income as only his and not MIL's. Then we would put her individual income on the I864a and add it to FIL's income and the sum total of their incomes would go under part 6 question 20 on i-864 which states, My current household income is:

Or Option 2: on I-864 part 6, question 7, Put down FIL's individual income as the exact amount that is shown on tax transcripts, which includes MIL's income. But then I'm not sure what we would need to put on MIL's i864a.

We are considering consulting a lawyer but I thought I'd try on here first.
