US Immigration from Lithuania

Hello, my mom s adjustment of status was approved last week. Just wondering how long it takes them to send the green card in mail if we are located in US?

A friend of mine is nearing the point of the K-3 visa process where his wife will be able to join him in America. They're both older (>55 yrs old), and he doesn't want to make a third several thousand mile journey in a year to meet and travel back, mostly due to the cost and toll it takes on his body.

Does anyone know of any service at airports that would allow for someone (working for the airport, airline or CBP I guess) to meet and escort her through customs, to the baggage area and out of the terminal or connecting terminal/flight? She's working on improving her English skills, so the primary concern is being able to communicate, and providing extra assurance/some comfort things will be OK. Her native language is Vietnamese.

Airports could be either JFK, EWR or BOS - each is within a reasonable distance

I feel like this is a common problem with a solution, but my google skills failed me -- lots of posts about people's partners working as escorts before, or it's for older relatives that are wheelchair-bound.

He's confided in me because he knows I went through the K-1 process with my wife. Visa Journey was an invaluable resource and I thought I'd ask here.

My LPR wife (Lithuanian citizen) needs to go to Russia due a death in the family. She is in the process of obtaining a Russian tourist visa for this purpose.
1. Should she anticipate any issues at CBP on return, due to current strained relations with Russia?

2. she is a conditional GC holder. Will her trip to Russia negatively affect her ROC?

Thank you in advance.

(Asking for a friend)

I am dealing with a situation where my employer is sponsoring AOS from H1B, but the contracted law firm seems really slow and inept. In short, bunch of docs collected by law firm but application hasn't been submitted as of yet. I am losing patience and trust in them. It's been about 2 years since they "started" to work on my case. In the meantime, I got married to a US citizen a few months ago.

I've been in the US for 7 years and am a Canadian citizen.

Given that I have a choice (if I even do), would you recommend that I continue grinding out the H1B AOS or ditch them and do my own marriage based AOS? Once applications are received, all things being equal, is one type more advantageous than the other in terms of wait times, 2 yr vs 10 yr GC, etc?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

We had our K-1 based I-485 interview scheduled for 9/16 and today (9/2) we received a cancellation notice which also states:

We will notify you by mail if the appointment is rescheduled, a decision is made, or if we need something from you. Please follow any instructions in the notice

I read the following in a few posts on this topic:

- this is a glitch - ignore it and go to your interview anyway.

- you may be granted a green card without an interview or with a delayed interview (post GC receipt)

- you are being pushed out because your interview was mistakenly scheduled too soon

FYI - We submitted our I-693 already and had no RFEs.

This seems to be a pretty rare situation, so I am curious if anyone had any recent experience with this and how it eventually panned out.

Thank you in advance.
