I am confused. Are you in the US now? What is the status of the spousal visa? If outside the US, I am not sure there is anything that can be done.

She can travel with her expired GC and extension letter fairly easily. There are some airlines that may not recognize that combo, but you can take a copy of the CBP carrier guide with you just in case. The only issues is making sure any travel dates do not conflict with anything scheduled by USCIS. Good Luck!

He’s right, you get what you vote for. Progress I guess.

Kind of states the obvious, at least to those with their heads out of the sand. Why the Hunter Biden scandal matters https://www.spiked-online.com/2023/07/28/why-the-hunter-biden-scandal-matters/

Enough With Half Measures, Throw All U.S. Code at Trump I have a suggestion for Jack Smith, one of Joe Biden’s official Rottweilers in charge of taking out Donald Trump. Throw the book at him. I mean the whole book. So far, Smith has taken a sort of piecemeal approach to suffocating the former president. His opening gambit was a 37-count felony indictment over Trump’s possession and handling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach. A couple of days ago, he added three more counts and yet another defendant, Trump employee Carlos De Oliveira, to the list. But I say: enough with half measures. The obscenely bloated, contradictory, and embarrassing compendium of the laws that supposedly govern this country is known as the U.S. Code. Among other things, it is a monument to the malevolent frivolousness of the people we elect to govern us. The Greek lawgiver Solon believed that a good society should have few laws but that those laws ought to be strictly and impartially enforced. Among the most amusing video clips I have seen recently was Jack Smith’s first announcement of his indictment of Trump. “We have one set of laws in this country,” Smith said, face straight as a meter stick, “and they apply to everyone.” I’m not sure when I have laughed so hard. Hunter Biden was unavailable for comment. So was his dear old Dad, “the Big Guy.” So, for that matter, was Sam Bankman-Fried, swindler and mega donor to the Democrats, who just saw a campaign finance violation against him dropped because, like Hunter, he is a member of a protected class. Did I mention that Bankman-Fried was the number 2 top donor (after George Soros) to the Dems, having contributed some $70 million to its coffers over 18 months? https://amgreatness.com/2023/07/30/enough-with-half-measures-throw-all-u-s-code-at-trump/

This may lead to talks of impeachment, and if it does, and enough Democrats get on board, I see this panning out like Watergate, Old Corrupt Joe resigns, and Kackling Kamala pardon’s him.

Certainly understandable. Just keep in mind what has been discussed here when your spouse actually gets the visa as that may be a lot closer to the 2nd wedding anniversary. Good Luck!

Leave them again? When you enter the US using your spousal visa there is no reason to leave. The question is do you want to deal with an expensive process (fees for the I751 are expected to increase significantly soon ~$1200) if waiting a month or so avoids all that. In the end it is your call. Good Luck!

I agree with @Mike E, the reason you stayed away was due to you relationship with your now ex. Good Luck!

The President of Turkey is exactly wrong in this part. The Freedom of Expression is all about having the freedom to insult anyone. Now of course there may be consequences, but the government tasked with protecting that freedom should not be the ones meting out those consequences. On a side note, we certainly see a strong attack on that freedom in the US by the Left. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan blasted Sweden for allowing the protest. “We will teach arrogant Westerners that insulting Muslims is not a matter of freedom of expression”, declared the head of state during a televised intervention, adding that he condemns this incident “in the strongest terms strong”.

If you enter before the 2nd wedding anniversary you will get a 2 yr GC based on the date of your entry (not the wedding anniversary date). Then 2 years after entry less 90 days, you will have to file the I751 to get a 10 yr GC per the instructions @Lemonslice posted. I also agree, if you are able to delay your US entry until after the 2 yr wedding anniversary within the validity of your visa, do it. You will thank us later as the I751 process is a pain. Good Luck!

Completely up to you if you want to spend the money. I know we did it all ourselves, but if you feel the need for peace of mind to have someone review it, that is your choice. As to the I864, that will come in about 12 months or so when the I130 is approved by USCIS and it is sent to NVC. Good Luck!

Was the visa “Denied”, or “Refused”?

Mitch McConnel served his purpose, he kept M. Garland off the Supreme Court. Time to retire along with all the other DC geriatrics.

Heck, the company should be happy that they are getting an employee coming over on their own immigrant visa, saves them a lot of money.

Reading through these, I would choose "none of the above applies.." in the first section, and "I need to register for an immigrant visa" in the second section since you are actually applying for an immigrant visa. Good Luck!

Not the Bee in this case, this was a real stunt.

Don't really care about Trump. I do care about a two tier criminal justice system that you seem to be fine with. Whatever, it is what it is. For all we know, Trump is doing this to expose the system as it stands today. Regardless, it was very predictable what happened yesterday that even Helen Keller could have seen it. I am sure Superman Smith wanted a Jan. 6th indictment, but short of that, apparently he had these charges in his back pocket to be used when politically expedient.

I do not think this guy would have much luck trying to observe Ramadan. 'Squad' member faces more mockery after hours-long ‘thirst strike’ Progressive Rep. Greg Casar, D-Texas, a new member of the "The Squad," faced waves of mockery on Twitter about his "thirst strike" protest lasting less than 10 hours. "Yesterday was incredible. I was honored to be joined at my thirst strike by workers in Texas and across the nation—and by lots of colleagues pushing for federal heat safety protections," the congressman tweeted Wednesday. "9 hours without water or food, but I’m more energized than ever to get this done." Many commentators across Twitter saw the demonstration as far less of an achievement, with some claiming the premise of his protest was not even accurate in the first place. "Democrat Greg Casar went 8 hours without eating or drinking something. To normal Americans, that's just skipping breakfast or lunch at work," Canary CEO Dan K. Eberhart tweeted. "To him, it's a hunger strike that he set up media cameras for once it was over. What a pathetic stunt." https://www.foxnews.com/media/squad-member-faces-mockery-hours-long-thirst-strike

I guess it is true, if Leftist didn't have double standards, they would have no standards at all. AP Curriculum Touted by Progressives Also Includes Section on Slaves Learning Skills The 2023 AP African-American studies curriculum released by the College Board, the body that oversees SAT and Advanced Placement (AP) testing, argues that slaves learned “specialized trades” during bondage and parlayed “these skills to provide for themselves and others” once free. In Unit 2 of the AP’s syllabus on “Slavery, Labor, and American Law,” a chapter on the slave economy suggests that slaves learned to become “painters, carpenters, tailors, musicians, and healers” and subsequently “used these skills to provide for themselves and others.” DeSantis has been widely criticized in recent weeks, including by Vice President Kamala Harris, over a singular passage in Florida’s 2023 social-studies standards which said that students will be taught “how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/ap-curriculum-touted-by-progressives-also-includes-section-on-slaves-learning-skills/ar-AA1eqScp

I really do not care about being mean. DiFi is a joke, heck, she fostered a Chinese spy for years, made a lot of money on her position, and is now just a laughingstock. Whatever, I expect if she ran again, the people in CA would vote for her which really says a lot about the people in CA. I fully expect the idiot Adam Schiff to be elected next as the reasonable people in CA have left.

If you have not officially entered on your immigrant visa yet, then you are not officially an LPR yet. If they are searching for your official status, they most likely will not find anything. Let them know your plans, and when you will officially be a GC holder. Good Luck!

And some seem so worried about Trump. I guess they are fine with slow, steady and corrupt elite controlling them. Hunter Biden Plea Deal Blows Up All roads lead to a a corrupt President Joe Biden. Aside: Keep in mind that Biden’s kid wasn’t the only Burisma connection. John Kerry’s stepson was in business with Hunter Biden, and Mitt Romney’s former staffer was on the Burisma board as well. Nancy Pelosi’s kid was part of an oil company with business in Ukraine. The country, which Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham have visited multiple times, seems to make politicians and their families wealthy. https://spectator.org/hunter-biden-plea-deal-blow-up-the-questions-that-need-to-be-answered/

No doubt. The DC elite are doing so much to destroy the reputation of the DOJ it is amazing. I guess they feel there are enough gaslighted folks out there now it doesn’t really matter (I.e. they feel they have a firm grip on power).

Hmm, seems Superman Jack Smith is following a political playbook here. Who could have guessed, after Hunter’s farce of a plea agreement fell apart, and it being covered by the Leftist media, we would not see Old Corrupt Joe, and his minion Garland directing Jack “Lex Luther” Smith to get Trump back front and center in the MSM. I guess since Jack did not do his job initially, probably more grounds for delaying everything.
