    I think was good for them to ask......and I think you are also correct that citizenship cannot be passed directly.
  3. Crazy Cat
    Sounds like they are trying to determine the status of the child, and/or whether the US citizen would pass citizenship to the child immediately upon entry into the US. Those questions would be relevant to that .
  4. Crazy Cat
    Yes, I think you are correct. I asked the question because something is missing in the situation, imo, if they are actually paying income taxes regularly....since a visitor visa does not allow a person to work, obtain a SS number, or file taxes. Maybe they are asylees.
  5. Crazy Cat
    They have work authorization? Social Security numbers? On what basis have they remained in the US for 25 years?

    1. Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) section 203(g) provides that the Secretary of State shall terminate the registration (petition) of any alien who fails to apply for an immigrant visa within one year of notice of visa availability. 2. If they file joint taxes, I would include a spouse I-864a. 3. I would find a well-qualified W-2 joint sponsor. 4. See #2 above. Perhaps other members have a different opinion.

    I just saw this. Not sure if it is widely known: According to the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) the United Kingdom is now poorer per capita than all 50 American states, having recently been overtaken by Mississippi.

    According to VJ Member reports, these are dates for I-130s for immediate relatives of US citizens:

    Congratulations......As a graduate of the US immigration system, your experience and comments in the future will be valuable to those still navigating the process. It's a great feeling being free from USCIS....

    He was a floor above the gathering. He would have had to navigate an escalator which was manned at the top and bottom, I have heard. He would not have made it inside the room, imo.

    You do......Everything you leave after death is part of your estate.
  12. Crazy Cat
    Years of Visa Journey history indicates otherwise. But as @appleblossom said, you can certainly try at no cost to you or your case.
  13. Crazy Cat
    Many people come into the immigration process unaware and uneducated. Members here are just trying to provide you (and those who read this thread) with as much info as possible.

    @Boiler brings up a good point. Your employment contribution after arriving via a K-1 will be $0 until you are authorized to work....which could be 6 or 8 months at least. A CR-1 arrival is authorized to work immediately upon arrival.
  15. Crazy Cat
    Great point.

    ****One comment containing an outside link removed*** There are plenty of N-400 interview experiences here on Visa Journey

    Getting married via Utah online marriage is extremely fast. Good luck on your journey. Hopefully, your K-1 will be issued in a few months.
  18. Crazy Cat
    If you are living together, why go the K-1 route? If you marry now, the US citizen could seek a spousal visa through Direct Consular Filing directly through the consulate. The Consulate might agree that his urgent relocation is an exceptional circumstance. That could cut the process to only a few months in total. But step 1 is to legally marry.

    Are you expecting a hard copy via the post office? I thought communication was strictly by email......
  20. Crazy Cat
    Yep. Too many people make assumptions and allegation without enough information. The "it was staged" thing is beyond belief......

    There is no sponsorship or route to legal residence for a nephew through you or your wife. Employment based visa is possible for legal residence later. A student visa is a possibility for extended stay, but it is a non-immigrant visa. He is free to apply for a tourist visa which would allow him to temporarily visit the US for up to a few months, but is a non-immigrant visa.

    Did you send the entire 1040 package including all schedules such as Schedule C (Profit/Loss)? I don't think the transcript will be as beneficial as the cover letter explaining the mixture of W-2 employee income and self-employment income. I think a clear explanation on your cover letter will show they overlooked the self-employment. Hopefully, your visa will be issued soon.

    ***Similar topic thread merged. Please do not post a duplicate in another forum which would scatter information about your question. Thread moved to the Africa: Sub Saharan regional forum for a Ghana related question***

    K-1 is a non-immigrant visa. ****I moved this topic to the African: Sub Saharan regional forum as it is country specific***

    1. Has the interview been scheduled by NVC?
