    This is incorrect under normal circumstances. This applies ONLY if the couple did not marry within 90 days.

    Yep. Protect yourself physically and financially. His future is all on him.

    You got really lucky. They saved you another year of waiting to approve an I-824 (which is their normal procedure for this mistake).

    I think you will receive good news soon. Keep an eye on the USCIS status. Remember to collect evidence for your I-751 through the next 2 years. Collecting pieces of evidence of a bona fide marriage along the way will make the removal of conditions paperwork a lot easier. Good luck on the rest of your journey.

    USCIS says about 8 months for Dallas. I think it said 9 months when my wife applied in late 2022. It actually took only 3 months to get notification of an interview. Total time (over the holidays) was 5.5 months from application to oath (and that included a combo interview).

    Congratulations!!!! I'm sure you will to continue to provide valuable information to those who subsequently follow your path.

    Consulates have their own processes for DCF. Explain your situation, and provide them the job offer. Ask them for their procedure.

    You were misinformed. Why are you sending an I-864a?
  11. Crazy Cat
    I have seen no examples of people with authorized stay being detained.

    if illegally present. They aren't picking up people who have authorized stay, to my knowledge. Illegally present means deportable. Tom Homan has said they will pick up people illegally present.

    I believe this is the answer.....nice find

    DCF is completely at the discretion of the London consulate. You must request DCF submission prior to filing an I-130 through USCIS. For a DCF case, EVERYTHING is done at the consulate level. In fact, a consulate is not authorized to accept a case which has already been filed with USCIS. Contact the consulate and give them your exceptional situation evidence. They should provide you with guidance. If the consulate denied DCF (although a job offer is normally accepted), you would have to file through USCIS and request an expedite at USCIS, NVC, and the consulate. Good luck on your journey.

    You'll get to use some of that information when you submit an I-864 later. You will need supporting documents such as: Current annual income documentation Tax documentation Domicile documentation

    She became a legal resident (Green Card holder) the minute she entered the US via a spousal visa.
  18. Crazy Cat
    Your history indicates she entered via a CR-1/IR-1. She does NOT have to file an I-485. Her Green Card will be mailed to her. do not file an i-485
  19. Crazy Cat
    On what visa did she enter? K-1 or CR-1??
  20. Crazy Cat
    Yes, legal immigration is difficult. In our case, my wife and I (already married) were separated for a year during the process before she immigrated to the US.

    You could marry at a court house and apply for adjustment of status and advance parole right now. You could have an approved I-131 before your planned trip.
  22. Crazy Cat
    and now, it has returned.
  23. Crazy Cat
    You can now adjust status since you are now inside the US and you had no intent to stay when you entered. However, filing an I-485 and leaving before you have advance parole would abandon that adjustment.
  24. Crazy Cat
    90 days is irrelevant. A person cannot enter the US as a non-immigrant with the intent to stay and adjust status. That is visa fraud, and it is abuse of the purpose of a non-immigrant visa. Immigrant visas are intended for immigrants. Non-immigrant visas are intended for visitors and non-immigrants. This is not the time to try to get around immigration law, imo.
  25. Crazy Cat
    No. It is illegal to enter the US as a non-immigrant with the intent to adjust status. That is visa fraud.
