US Immigration from Ghana

Finally , I m getting stronger and taking the right steps . I called 911 today to talk about my verbally abusive husband . They wanted to send a team over but I was so scared of police showing up . I just called a womens shelter , I want to silently move all documents and my stuff and go to the shelter on Saturday then file for divorce on Monday . I m still so scared , I don t think he will sign the divorce papers . But I m really scared of the anxiety and panic attacks. I pray this does not mess up my green card when I m going to remove conditions. It s gotten worse . After almost suffering a heart attack from my iron infusion he yelled at me for speaking my local language with my friend on the phone .
please keep me in prayers . Any further suggestions are welcome

Can I change my status in the US if I entered with media visa (I-visa). Thanks

When will 2021 DQ start getting their appointment date this year or next year ?

Hello,

I was married 6 years ago and had my husband's visa process approved. However he died back in his country before he was able to travel on his visa. Moving forward I befriended someone online some years after this and began a relationship online. We had this relationship for about 4 years online. In 2020 I had purchased a ticket to travel but covid hit and borders closed so my ticket had to be cancelled. I recently went to visit him and we want to be together so we married. I would like to petition for him but don't know if maybe I should wait until I see him again to start the petition or should I start it now even though I've seen him only this once in person. He is from Ghana.

Hi everyone,

We're working on bringing my husband's teenage sons (from a previous relationship) to the US now that he is a citizen. One is 16, the other 14, and I really want them to do their first entry between the ages of 16-18 so that they are citizens upon arrival and get 10 year passports the first time around. We are planning to submit I-130 for the older one now and I realize that this is actually a dangerous timeline now with how slow things go.

They will definitely need to do DNA tests because none of the other evidence they ask for is possible to get (they don't have baptismal records, the school records from young childhood don't exist, etc.). I've heard that there's a backup of getting the DNA tests done at the Ghanaian Embassy right now. A few questions:

(1) Does it make sense to apply ASAP and wait for the USCIS to demand the DNA test?

(2) Or is better to submit the application along with an AARB approved DNA test, even if that means waiting 2-3 months to submit the I-130?

Other questions:

(3) Can we submit the I-130 (like, today) and then update the application with the DNA results once they become available?

(4) Does the testing HAVE to be done at the Embassy, or if there is an AARB approved lab in the country, can the two of them visit there together with their passports and have a chain-of-custody process done there? He visits his home country every few months to see the kids, so he could possibly do this in July.

Thanks for any help!
