Correct I believe the I130 will result in an IR2 visa for your step-son. Not entirely certain, but I believe children over the age of 14 are required to attend an interview. This is more of a legal custody question. I would defer to your lawyer handling custody documents, and if they believe everything is in order, he should be fine. Good Luck! https://www.uscis.gov/adoption/immigration-through-adoption/family-based-petition-process/immigration-adoption-and-citizenship-for-stepchildren-of-us-citizens-and-lprs

Honestly, I could not care less about Hillary Clinton, but I do love that the favored fact-checker of FB/Meta felt the need to fact check this. Video is evidence that Hillary Clinton is a reptile. This is not the first time such a claim has surfaced. In 2009, Richard Heene, who fabricated a story that his son had floated away in a UFO-shaped balloon, also made false statements about Clinton being reptilian. Claims that high-profile people are reptilian are unfounded and part of a long-running conspiracy theory. PolitiFact has debunked similar claims about President Joe Biden, Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla and Queen Elizabeth II after her death in 2022. We rate the claim that video is evidence that Clinton is a reptile Pants on Fire! https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/dec/21/instagram-posts/this-video-does-not-prove-that-hillary-clinton-is/

Have her show the GC, but keep the NOA from the I131 in case CBP asks her anything. A lot of GC holders apply for a re-entry permit and their plan change and they come back to the US prior to the REP being approved. She should have no issues. Good Luck!

I am going to report this thread and ask a moderator to move it to the Russia/Ukraine/Belarus regional forum as you may get more answers there. As to the point, I think she should be fine, but I am not certain. Good Luck!

This is probably why the consulate and CBP has the note about having a child after the visa is issued but before immigrating to the US. Essentially, this should be a reason for DCF if the child does not qualify for CRBA as in this case, but they are saying no visa is needed when this happens if the newborn is traveling with the parent that has a valid visa, and the birth certificate verifies the parenthood, so no I130 is needed, and no special circumstance required.

I agree now with @carmel34 and @Boiler, if this petition was denied due to an AWA issue, a lawyer is needed for the spousal visa.

If you are worried about being allowed on a flight with the baby via the Consulate information you can refer the airline to the CBP Carrier Guide Page 10 (see below). Another option is to fly to Canada and drive across the border. Good Luck! Child born abroad to an accompanying parent after issuance of an immigrant visa to the parent but before the parent’s initial admission as an immigrant may be boarded as long as the child has a passport and birth certificate. https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2023-Nov/Carrier Information Guide ENGLISH.pdf

This entire episode was just a testament to how the Left Identity Politics and DEI stuff works. Harvard tried so hard to re-define Gay's stealing of other's work to get where she was at. Then of course we get the racism angle, when if you really look at it, it was Gay, and Harvard that was being racist. If I were a Harvard student, or alum, I would be disgusted.

Not really sure anyone can answer this. The CO may ask why you requested the case be transferred, but then again, they may not. Good Luck!

I agree, this cannot really be answered without a few more details as to why the I-129F petition was denied.

Then I would pursue the information you provided. I assume you have a US passport, so you will not be getting a visa, and the child, if born after your husband's spousal visa is issued, appears to not need a new petition provided you have the long-form birth certificate. The key is in bold. If the child is born before your husband gets his visa, then you need a new I130 is how I interpret this. Good Luck! 12) I've had a child after receiving my visa. Does my child need a visa? If your child was born after your visa was issued but before you move to the United States, you should first check if your child may have a claim to citizenship as the child of a U.S. citizen. If not, then your child may travel with you when you move to the United States using your visa, provided that you show the child’s long-form birth certificate which states the names of both parents. If you are a Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR) and you have had a child overseas during a temporary absence from the United States, click here for the information you need. https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/after-your-immigrant-or-fiancee-visa-has-been-issued/?_ga=2.108036226.1045392846.1704281189-214534049.1704281189

Are you able to pass on US citizenship to you upcoming child? If so, CRBA. Good Luck! https://uk.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/citizenship/consular-report-of-birth-abroad-crba-and-first-u-s-passport/

I just assumed the $150k was for First Class, and the $48k was for Coach. Sure the plane is dead-heading back, but to me, it seems if you can afford this price for a ticket, are you really in need of asylum in the US? Seems it could be much more inexpensive to look else where if one is being politically persecuted.

Happy New Year. We had a nice dinner on NYE's, I watched a little football, and we went to bed.

In what you described, you cannot. You can visit, your spouse can visit, but there is no living together visa while awaiting the spousal visa process.

I agree this will not be an issue. She can clarify the difference at the interview if the CO asks about it. Good Luck!

Canada - ESTA? I am confused apart from the plan being fraud.

I thought Biden was all in until Russia was trounced by Ukraine? The Biden Administration Is Quietly Shifting Its Strategy in Ukraine https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/12/27/biden-endgame-ukraine-00133211

Ukraine needs 500k troops. I wonder where they will come from. Zelensky says Russia made no military gains in 2023, expresses faith in U.S. Kyiv’s situation seems increasingly difficult, however, with crucially needed military and economic aid stalled in Washington and Brussels, and with frequent reports of shortages in military personnel and weapons. Ukrainian cities are still under constant bombardment by Russian missiles and explosive drones, and Moscow’s troops are pushing to advance at several points along the front line in the east and south. While the European Union agreed to open membership talks, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban blocked a proposed $55 billion aid package. A proposal by President Biden, for roughly $60 billion in aid, has been blocked for months by Republicans in Congress, who are demanding sweeping changes in border security and immigration policy in exchange for approving the funds. At his news conference, Zelensky expressed confidence that the U.S. aid would be approved in the near future. “We’re working very hard on this. I’m sure that the U.S.A. won’t betray us,” he said. https://www.spokesman.com/stories/2023/dec/19/zelensky-says-russia-made-no-military-gains-in-202/

Nothing will happen to these people, or at least the highest profile people. Bill Clinton will still be out there sleeping around, Bill Gates will be doing his thing with his lady friends, Prince Andrew may not be a working royal, but he is still part of the royal family. What needs to happen is for people to start showing these "elite" no respect, and stop listening to them. I know, it is hard, especially given the make-up of the MSM, but it can be done.

These folks should be prosecuted for terrorism. However, I am sure we will get a lot of the same as this.

Also fascinating is the price quoted for those on the plane.

Yeah, in my case it was all about Leftist politics. If I did not adhere to her leftist views, I was out. In the end, it was for the best, as back then, I was naive to the intolerance of the Left/Democrats and it opened my eyes. Live and learn.

Most politicians, and most MSM mouthpieces, and analysts know little to nothing of immigration/migration. Case-in-point, Kamala Harris and her root causes ploy.
