  1. Possibly, hard to say, but people change jobs all the time. If you show a good history of working, and meet the financial requirements, I would not hold off bettering yourself employment wise. Worst case scenario, the consulate requests a joint sponsor.
  2. Some eye opening facts and calculations. People do understand that batteries do not actually generate electricity. The Home-Based Battery Storage Fantasy In the U.S., a typical residential household consumes around 10,800 kWh annually, or about 30 kWh per day. Of course, the amount varies depending on the size of home, the region of the country, and the season of the year. With electrified space and water heat, some regions of the country where electricity demand now peaks in summer will see demand peak in winter, while existing winter-peaking regions will see winter demand spike even further. According to a U.S. Department of Energy model, a heat pump in a typical home will consume about 5,500 kWh annually. That alone represents a 50% increase in electricity use. Charging a typical EV adds another 4,300 kWh annually. In total, those will add almost 10,000 kWh of consumption annually, roughly doubling current consumption to about 60 kWh per day, although the increase will be greatest in winter when heating loads peak. Supplying the additional electricity while ensuring the same level of service reliability (i.e., no extended outages or limiting consumers’ access to electricity because of insufficient supplies) will require enough battery storage to provide electricity at night and over multi-day periods when there is little wind and sun available to recharge those batteries. Although the article recommends using consumers’ EVs to supply electricity, few consumers will likely wish to wake up to an uncharged EV and an inability to travel, especially if there is no stored electricity available to recharge their EVs. Using the U.S. consumption averages, if existing local distribution systems can serve today’s average load of 30 kWh/day, then enough battery storage must be built to supply the remaining 30 kWh. and, more importantly, the peak power demand of electric heat pumps and EV chargers. A typical Level 2 home EV charger, for example, can draw 20 kilowatts (kW). A heat pump can draw 7 kW. The largest Tesla Powerwall, which is designed for home use, provides a maximum of 11.5 kW of power and 13.5 kWh of storage under ideal conditions. (When temperatures fall, so does battery capacity and efficiency.) Hence, at least three Powerwall units would be required to provide a typical home with sufficient electricity to supplement existing grid capacity. For one million homes, that means three million Powerwall units providing a maximum of 40.5 million kWh (40,500 megawatt-hours) of battery storage. https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2024/11/21/the_home-based_battery_storage_fantasy_1073913.html
  3. No, the I485 being filed does not allow anyone to work while it is processing. If she wants to work legally while the I485 is processing the I765 will be needed. Good Luck!
  4. You don’t send the I134 with the I129F, the I134 comes later when the interview occurs. You are free to change jobs throughout the process, but if a job change occurs after you send the I134, you will need to change that form. Good Luck!
  5. Looks like the Mayor of Denver is planning on protecting illegal immigrants, so maybe that is something. Denver Mayor Promises Armed Resistance to ICE The vast majority of law enforcement is local. Johnston is doubtful that federal forces would raid Colorado to round up immigrants, even if Trump tried to mount a national crackdown. “I do not believe that our governor is going to let them use our [Colorado] National Guard at the state level,” he said. “Unless they were planning on bringing national guards mobilized from Texas or Alabama to come invade Colorado, I don’t know where they would find the forces to begin to do that. “And that seems to me like a very, very bad idea from start to finish that no reasonable American would support,” he said. The mayor also takes heart that the people of Denver — not just the administration — would likely resist a mass deportation effort from federal forces. “More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you would have 50,000 Denverites there,” Johnston said. “It’s like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right?” You’d have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants. And you do not want to mess with them.” https://hotair.com/david-strom/2024/11/21/denver-mayor-promises-armed-resistance-to-ice-n3797209
  6. This seems to be a common denominator as I saw almost the exact same comment in the story I posted. He was taken into custody by US border patrol agents at the time, but later cut loose with a notice to appear before an immigration judge in New York City, the federal sources said.
  7. Don't make any quips about only coming in for a short visit, or something like that. Also, you can check out the POE reviews for the crossing you plan to use. Good Luck! https://www.visajourney.com/reviews/poereviews.php
  8. Quite the speedy trial. Killer of Laken Riley found guilty on all counts https://www.yahoo.com/news/killer-laken-riley-found-guilty-070256405.html
  9. If Democrats wonder why Kamala Harris lost, here is a great example. Remember, there is over 300k missing children that illegally crossed the border, I wonder if some of these Democrat governors that are being vocal about defying Trump, and specifically Holman’s plan to go after the worst criminals can be charged with child trafficking? ICE arrests 3 illegal immigrants in Mass.: 2 charged with child rape, 1 convicted of same crime in Brazil U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Boston announced on Wednesday the arrests of two illegal immigrants who have been charged with forcibly raping children in Massachusetts, as well as a third individual who was convicted of raping a child in Brazil, and was hiding in the U.S. after being caught and released at the U.S. border in 2022. The arrests come after Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said her state would not cooperate with President-elect Trump’s federal immigration enforcement efforts once he returns to the Oval Office in January. ICE said one of the suspects, an illegal immigrant from Guatemala, was arrested for forcible rape of a child, but was released in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, by authorities, who ignored a detainer request made by the federal agency to hold or transfer him to federal custody. https://www.foxnews.com/us/ice-arrests-3-illegal-immigrants-massachusetts-2-charged-child-rape-1-convicted-same-crime-brazil
  10. Posting this in two places as it fits in both.
