US Immigration from Netherlands

Hello Forum,

I (from netherlands) just recently married the love of my life (from Texas) and we are starting our my CR-1 application.

The one bit of information i can't seem to find is wether or not my wife should register being married before the application or not.

The county clerk in Texas told my wife that she has to do that at the appostile office and the appostile office told her she should do that at the county clerk.

So what we are trying to figure out is if it is even necessary to do that or that applying for the CR-1 is doing that in itself.

For info, we got married in the Netherlands on the 14th of August 2021. My wife is back in the US and i'm still in the Netherlands.

I've been to the US several times, and my now wife has been to the Netherlands even more.

Thank you in advance for anyone who responds.

I entered the US on my K-1 visa last month, but during entry the officer didn't ask for the sealed packet, so I forgot about it. I've tried contacting USCIS about it, but it's impossible to actually speak to a person and the robots don't know what I'm talking about. Can anyone tell me what I'm supposed to do with this packet now?

Hello!

we just started our own timeline on visajourney and after receiving NOA1 we got the processing estimates, but we don't understand , is this the estimate of starting to process our filing or the estimate of the the date when the beneficiary will get the visa?

Thank you!

My husbands sister will be our joint sponsor. She is married. My us partner who is the sponsor without enough income,

will be at another adress. So petitioner and sister are not part of a household.

Does his sister's husband have to fill out form I-864A since they file taxes together?

Thank you Leon

Your NOA1 date, just some info.

I see alot of people saying their NOA1 date is their "notice date", while in fact it's the "received date".

For example:

I-129f sent: 2020-12-01

Notice received: 2021-02-15

NOA1: 2021-02-15

So you sent your I-129f in December, received a notice in February. But since it only takes a couple of days to get to the Lockbox, your NOA1 is the date "they" receive it, so somewhere in December, like this:

I-129f sent: 2020-12-01

Notice received: 2021-02-15

NOA1: 2020-12-05

Because some people put the wrong date in their timeline, the estimate approval date will never be right. I know you can't hold on to that, especially now, but still.

I hope this is helpful
