OK, so the withdrawal route might be worth the risk. Have you talked to the consulate as @Redro suggested to see if they would entertain a DCF if you withdraw the I130? Here is the thread of the person that went through it recently (it was very complicated), and it appears they talked to the consulate ahead of time. Good Luck!

No minimum amount of time, enter the US, get your visa endorsed and you are now a US LPR albeit with a temporary proof (endorsed visa). The only issues I saw with that recently was when a couple entered via land and somehow insinuated to the CBP officer that they really did not plan to reside in the US. This was a foreign spouse from Canada (sorry, I don't have the link), and it was an interesting story. That being said, quite a few folks need more time to wrap up their lives before moving to another country permanently. The only thing I will add is you USC husband needs to enter the US ahead of you or at the same time. I saw a story where the spouses were heading to the US, but from different parts of the world and the foreign spouse with their IR1 arrived first, so keep it simple. Good Luck!

It was asked already, but I did not see an answer, when was the I130 submitted to USCIS (i.e. how far along are you in the process)? Expedite and maybe some help from a Congress member might be the best course at this time. Your wife may also ask the school if they are willing to wait for the immigration to be sorted out. Good Luck!

What a joke It does seem that petulant Joe Scarborough is trying really hard to gaslight folks.

Another petulant Democrat. This winner is even more ego driven than Biden. Democratic Illinois 'super mayor' vetoes attempt to probe her lavish spending https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/democratic-illinois-super-mayor-vetoes-attempt-to-probe-her-lavish-spending/ar-BB1jrLvQ

No, it was the 5 yr thing, I expected a 10 yr visa, but apparently that is the agreement between the U.S. and Australian governments. You should be fine, the general rule of thumb is more time outside than inside the U.S. Good Luck!

Unintended consequence of Bidenmentia? Biden's OTHER Immigration Calamity But there's an even larger casualty of this mindless policy. Biden has contaminated the historic public support for LEGAL immigration. And he has done so at the very moment in time when we need to continually increase legal visas. Right now, America issues roughly 2 million legal visas a year. https://hotair.com/stephen-moore/2024/03/06/bidens-other-immigration-calamity-n3784167

This is what I found. I was a bit surprised by the 5 year date, but apparently that is the case for Australians, but it is multi-entry over that period. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/australia.html

So get married and file the I130 now and in 1-2 years you can upgrade it to an IR1 (from F2A), and he should be very close to getting a visa at that point. He can continue to use his B2 visa for visits, but don't abuse it, short visits with plenty of time in between visits. I know LDRs can be a real pain, but for a couple years of pain, it can be a great many years of joy. Good Luck!

You should be able to straighten things out. Your plan of trying to get to a Tier 2 person is good, but it might take some time to get a response. You could also try your US representative, or senator, they might be able to expedite USCIS to send out the RFE copy. Meanwhile, review your package with a fine toothed comb and see if you can detect anything obvious. Other than that, maybe they are looing for more relationship evidence, but that is just a guess. Good Luck!

So tolerant the Democrat Left, if you don't do what we demand, we will destroy you.

The problem is Biden cannot run on being Biden either, so all he has is to demonize Trump.

Trekking it might work. Here is a similar story of someone trekking an area with very few roads. https://explorersweb.com/solo-labrador-trekker-enters-new-phase/

More of the Democrat stale recycled narratives. Greedy corporations are now the cause of shrinkflation, which of course is simply Bidenflation. I love it when the Dems/Left bring on the greedy corporation argument and then suggest we need to raise corporate taxes. Aside from the fact that supposedly smart Democrats don't realize that corporations do not pay taxes, if corporations are so greedy, won't they find a way to pass on any tax increases to their consumers?

It does seem our current administration is sending mixed signals to Israel. Not really surprising considering the total chaos in the WH. Israel Prepares to Go It Alone Biden has spent decades, of course, getting into rows with Israeli leaders, and he’s been on the wrong side of many of them—including recently, as we’ve written here. He is neither more Catholic than the pope nor more Israeli than the Israelis. It’s just that there seems to be one line that Biden cannot be pressured to cross, and that is forcing Israel to stop fighting when it cannot afford to. He will almost certainly be the last Democratic president, at least for some time, who is able to withstand the immense pressure from within his party and cross that line. In truth, I can’t think of a president of either party who has been hounded by his own party over Israel the way Biden has been. His vice president and presumed successor, Kamala Harris, clearly cannot wait to fold. And the Israelis seem to have noticed. Yediot Ahronot reports that Israel went on a shopping spree to stock up on U.S.-made rifles while also setting into motion plans to build similar versions domestically to ease its reliance on American weapons. Israel will also produce a domestic line of bombs for its air force. https://www.commentary.org/seth-mandel/israel-prepares-to-go-it-alone/

So are you planning to follow the USCIS path or attempt to see if the consulate will accept the filing? If you submit online, the DCF at the consulate is no longer an option. Good Luck!

So in you free time away from VJ you haven’t been practicing spelling? 😂

Little brain?

Did the receipt you received in 2023 have a physical address on it? What I am getting at is just uploading a request to withdrawal to an account may not be enough, you may want to send a physical letter to any address on you receipt notice. Good Luck!

Did you receive a NOA when you submitted the I134A?

Have you already submitted the I130? Do you as the USC have an urgent need to repatriate to the US?

Yes, this is possible. Follow the advice of @Daphne ., short trips with plenty of time in between, and don't try to abuse the B2. Good Luck!
