No. USCIS could revoke visas, but courts could review those revocations. Seems courts will now have less authority to review.....just my interpretation.

You did. My mistake for missing that. I still wish you luck.

Ohhhhh. You're right.......LOL......It was early for me......my only excuse. Thanks for pointing that out.

By law, every person who applies for a B2 visa is already assumed to have intent to stay in the US. Having a US GF is a very strong tie to the US. It is always up to the applicant to overcome that suspicion of immigrant intent. I wish you good luck.

Wife got a real ID DL in Texas as LPR (CR-1). 6 year expiration.

Then BC is the only option. But US domicile is equally important.

You MUST provide the numbers for all 3 years if the sponsor was required to file taxes those years. Otherwise, you must provide the reason the sponsor was not required to file a tax return.

Agree. 9% seems too high.

That is exactly why. Sometimes COs want both spouses to sign I-864s when they file taxes jointly.

Based simply on my memory, most of the very few spousal visa denials I have seen were due to the Consulate Officer doubting the authenticity of a marriage. It seems to me that marriage of longer duration (IR-1) would lessen those doubts. I have no hard data to support that, but it seems logical to me.

Biden just promised another BILLION to Ukraine....Total is now 62B.....wow.

I'm not sure how that would work......

What is preventing you from doing it now?

Either a US birth certificate or a US passport is evidence of citizenship.

Can you clarify? You entered the US during AP then adjusted status?

You: Evidence of US citizenship (or LPR) and evidence of US domicile. Also consult this list Civil Documents

This was your original question. There is no indication, imo, to worry about her being able to adjust status after President Trump takes office. In fact, Trump has talked about Green Cards for those foreign students educated in the US. International students unsure of Trump’s green card promise – The Columbia Chronicle " One of former President Donald Trump’s “Day One” promises, if elected, is to give all foreign students a green card upon graduation. Trump proposed the idea during a podcast appearance in June, saying it would keep students from going back home to “become multi-billionaires, employ thousands and thousands of people, and it could’ve been here.”"

I agree with @appleblossom.......and I would submit an I-130 asap.

He said "“If they come here illegally but their family is here legally, then the family has a choice: The person that came in illegally can go out or they can all go out together.”" I don't think the spouse of the OP would have any issues. Besides, deportations for non-criminals are way down the line, imo. Time will tell.

No. There has been no mention of effects on people lawfully present in the US. I would not advise anyone to let his/her legal status lapse.

I can see every conversation my wife and I have had via FB messenger from today stretching as far back as I can scroll. I got tired of scrolling at May 2023. You could always just show snapshots of the dates of your conversations throughout your relationship.

Tweaking a date format is one thing....."tweaking" the actual dates is a recipe for disaster under some circumstances.
