Then the joint sponsor’s spouse should fill out an I864A.

The joint sponsor only makes $27k? The I 864s are not additive, the primary sponsor or the joint sponsor must meet the I864P guidelines for their household size and $27k only meets the amount for a household of 2. Good Luck! https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p

So the new passport is wrong? Is the consulate requesting a new passport with the correct information before actually issuing the visa, or was the visa already issued in her old passport?

She can only work with either the EAD or GC along with her SSN. She can travel and re-enter the U.S. after getting the AP or GC card. There is no stamp, and you can expect a wait of many months before you see any movement. You also mentioned in your OP that you are anticipating an RFE. If you already know this, why not include that information in your initial filing to take care of it up front? Good Luck!

I am actually glad the Harvard President did not get ousted as it keeps the antisemitism story in these “elite” universities in the news cycle longer so more people can learn about it. Also, it allows more and more folks a chance to uncover the complete hypocrisy of her specifically, and the Leftist academics in general.

Having both the I131 and I751 in the system at the same time should not be an issue. In fact it will probably look better for the I751 that you did things properly so you and your wife can stay together during your international assignment.

Other than the potential of being called for biometrics or an I751 interview, you should be fine. Getting the re-entry permit before you leave and getting the I751 filed is the right thing to do. You may consider consulting your company’s HR and discuss the situation. Generally large companies that have employees on international assignments will assist with a spouse’s immigration issues as well. Good Luck!

I would have your wife discuss it with the consulate officer when she has her interview. Good Luck!

Gat a call yesterday on my work phone also supposedly from Amazon. Instead of hanging up I listened for a while, and the person told me there was a suspicious purchase on my Amazon account. Supposedly a MacBook was purchased by someone in New Mexico, and I said I did not make the purchase, and did not live in New Mexico. Then the person asked for my name and that is when I refused to give them any additional information stating that this was personal information, and I would contact Amazon myself. I also mentioned that they were calling on my work phone that had no connection to my Amazon account. The caller hung up at that point.

When your first DCF case was canceled by the consulate did you file an I130 with USCIS? If not, it seems your situation has changed, so you can request DCF again?

One thing I will add after you receive the NOA extension letter. Make a few copies of that as well, and keep the original only for international travel. Good Luck!

What I was getting at is what if someone only filed an I129F for a K3 and did not file an I130. I am not sure if that is an option anymore or if one is required to also file an I130 for a spouse.

You did not already receive an RFE for the final divorce papers?

I90 which is a form to renew a 10yr GC, or to fix errors on GCs.

You are all set with the GC. USCIS properly terminated the EAD application with the approval of the GC. Good Luck!

I agree, you are fine. Good Luck!

Honestly, I have not heard of anyone applying only for a K3 via an I129F. I suppose it is possible, but with the spousal visa route via an I130 being a far superior visa, K3s are all but obsolete.

If she arrives in the U.S. after the 2nd wedding anniversary, she is entitled to a 10 yr GC despite the visa being issued as a CR1. She can remind the CBP officer that the 2nd wedding anniversary has passed, and hopefully that officer will endorse the visa as an IR1, but it is USCIS that issues the GC. If the GC arrives with a 2 yr expiration date, she can file an I90 to get it fixed as USCIS’s expense. Definitely make sure she arrives after the 2nd wedding anniversary so you can avoid the I751. Good Luck!

So to me this is much more general than just the Hamas terror attacks into Israel (if mods feel otherwise, feel free to put this in the Israel thread). It is certainly true, people usually show their true colors. A great example is the racist attitudes of Old Corrupt Joe which shine through all the time. When People Tell You Who They Are, Believe Them On the one hand I think: surely this will be sufficient. Surely this amount of blood will be enough to shake the world awake. Surely no one can equivocate or justify this. As my friend Sarah Haider wrote, “How easy is it to simply condemn targeted violence against civilians? Can there be a lower bar?” And yet, across the world, people have sunk below it. Here you can watch people gathered at the Sydney Opera House cheering “gas the Jews” and “death to the Jews.” People are rejoicing in the slaughter on the streets of Berlin and London and Toronto and New York.

What I do not understand is the three Leftist justices voted in favor of religious rights on the postal worker case released yesterday, but voted against this one released today. Supreme Court rules in favor of Colorado graphic designer who refused to create same-sex wedding websites The U.S. Supreme Court held that a Colorado graphic designer who wants to make wedding websites does not have to create them for same-sex marriages, in a landmark decision that pit the interests of LGBTQ non-discrimination against First Amendment freedom. In a 6-3 decision issued Friday, the high court ruled in favor of artist Lorie Smith, who sued the state over its anti-discrimination law that prohibited businesses providing sales or other accommodations to the public from denying service based on a customer's sexual orientation. Justice Neil Gorsuch authored the majority opinion, which said that, "In this case, Colorado seeks to force an individual to speak in ways that align with its views but defy her conscience about a matter of major significance." https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/supreme-court-rules-in-favor-of-colorado-graphic-designer-who-refused-to-create-same-sex-wedding-websites/ar-AA1dg4M7

This AI will most likely be used for the next election. It will get interesting. AI clones teen girl’s voice in $1M kidnapping scam: ‘I’ve got your daughter’ It was a dead “ringer” for her daughter. Artificial intelligence has taken phone scams to a frightening new level. An Arizona mom claims that scammers used AI to clone her daughter’s voice so they could demand a 1$ million dollar ransom from her as part of a terrifying new voice scheme. “I never doubted for one second it was her,” distraught mother Jennifer DeStefano told WKYT while recalling the bone-chilling incident. “That’s the freaky part that really got me to my core.” This bombshell comes amid a rise in “caller ID spoofing” schemes, in which scammers claim they’ve taken the recipient’s relative hostage and will harm them if they aren’t paid a specified amount of money. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/ai-clones-teen-girl-s-voice-in-1m-kidnapping-scam-i-ve-got-your-daughter/ar-AA19LWPF

If the shoe fits. Twitter criticized after labeling NPR as ‘state-affiliated media’ (NewsNation) — NPR president and CEO John Lansing fired back at Twitter on Wednesday morning after the social media platform put a label on the news organization’s profile calling it “state-affiliated media.” NewsNation partner The Hill reports this designation is one Twitter uses for state news agencies such as Russia’s TASS and China’s Xinhua. “NPR and our Member stations are supported by millions of listeners who depend on us for the independent, fact-based journalism we provide,” Lansing wrote in a statement. “NPR stands for freedom of speech and holding the powerful accountable. It is unacceptable for Twitter to label us this way. A vigorous, vibrant free press is essential to the health of our democracy.” https://www.newsnationnow.com/entertainment-news/media/twitter-npr-state-affiliated-media-ceo-responds/

U.S. safety agency to consider ban on gas stoves amid health fears A federal agency says a ban on gas stoves is on the table amid rising concern about harmful indoor air pollutants emitted by the appliances. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission plans to take action to address the pollution, which can cause health and respiratory problems. “This is a hidden hazard,” Richard Trumka Jr., an agency commissioner, said in an interview. “Any option is on the table. Products that can’t be made safe can be banned.” https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2023-01-09/us-safety-agency-considers-gas-stove-ban?expandComments=true

Scammers are getting more creative. Be careful. 2 Michigan women tricked by convincing, sophisticated Amazon scam: What to know The calls appear to have three steps: The initial caller claims to be from Amazon and tells you there has been a fraudulent purchase on an Amazon account. Then, the conversation quickly turns to reveal that you have bank accounts with four or five well-known names — Wells Fargo, PNC Bank, Bank of America, Chase and others. Maybe that's where you really bank, maybe you don't and will let it slip where you do have accounts. Last, you're told that someone has used your identity to open up a string of bank accounts. A call that began from Amazon somehow ends up with a federal agent on the line to convince you that you'll be arrested soon because you're now suspected of money laundering. The caller might imply that hundreds of thousands of dollars were transferred into questionable accounts opened with your ID information. https://www.freep.com/story/money/personal-finance/susan-tompor/2022/05/19/amazon-scam-money-laundering/9794344002/
