  1. She said in her original post that she is ill and gets money from the state, so that means she's probably not working at the moment. My brother in-law lives in Amsterdam and he ,too, is ill and unable to work right now, and I know that his rent is 100% paid for by the state because of his illness and he gets money every month for food and living expenses, plus free healthcare. I could be wrong, but that would be my guess.
  2. This information is 100% incorrect. I know you're just trying to help, but answering a question when you're not sure of the answer can 100% be devastating for the person asking for the help. In this case, there are three options: They fly here in May before their visas expire and stay for good, they fly here and activate their visas, return home and come back permanently in September, or they allow their visas to expire and then they'll have to start from the very beginning again.
  3. What are you not understanding? Your parent CANNOT enter the U.S using a visitor visa with the INTENT to STAY and adjust status!!! It is visa FRAUD and will result in a lifetime ban for your parent. It's a big fat no. Your ONLY option is consular processing. Period. End of story.
  4. Real or fake, don't be sending money to random people on the internet.
  5. You're both adults and should be able to behave for an immigration interview. This is your future you're talking about.
  6. Nope, no phone or email. You must send a letter to withdraw the first one.
  7. There is no sponsorship for a visitor visa. The person must apply and be approved based on THEIR OWN merits.
  8. Out of curiosity: why would religion force anyone to overstay? Serious inquiry.
  9. Been here 12 years, never once heard of anyone being forced to open their envelope. Stop worrying about things that aren't a thing.
  10. I went to my husband's interview with him and the IO came out to the waiting room and introduced himself to me.
  11. What isa CS1 visa? Are you talking about CR1? This is a DIY site, the majority of us have done the entire process on our own. As long as your case isn't complicated, then no reason for an attorney.
  12. Get married anywhere. Spouse cannot live here until visa is approved.
  13. Don't ever assume anything when iy comes to immigration! How old are your children?
  14. You won't be getting a waiver for that. Just being honest...
  15. Several people have already told you that his conviction does NOT matter!!! It is HER visa, it's HER criminal record that matters!!!
  16. Not sure where you came up with a timeline of 5 months for an RFE, it's usually a lot quicker than that.
  17. Your brother will never be eligible to adjust status. As in never, ever. It's the law. Period. End of story.
  18. Yes, without a doubt. I'm a Bostonian, I fly in and out of Logan constantly and 3 hours is more than enough time.
  19. Another reason why the CR1/IR1 is the superior visa. The fees for a K-1 are astronomical.
  20. Absolutely this. There is no way I would ever reschedule and put naturalization in jeopardy. No trip is worth the risk.
  21. A green card is for living in the U.S., for all intents and purposes you have not done that. In order to qualify for citizenship, it's like everyone else said, 4 years and one day- BUT you MUST spend the majority those 4 years here in the U.S., no more long absences. Best of luck.
