  1. Agree. My new car has no way to de-activate the feature except by pressing the button after starting the engine...every time......however, I can order a short jumper cable from Amazon which will supposed permanently deactivate the start-stop. Thinking about buying one. Just ordered one from Amazon.
  2. Filing date generally determines I-130 approval date. DQ date determines placement in the interview queue at NVC. 1. Case is DQ'd by NVC. 2. Case then enters NVC queue for your consulate and waits at NVC. 3. Consulate informs NVC of available interview dates for upcoming month. 4. NVC schedules interviews for cases at the front of the line. 5. NVC schedules your interview when your case reaches the front of the queue for that consulate. 6. NVC notifies person of interview date via email. 7. NVC then sends case to consulate. After the interview is scheduled, it can take several days to several weeks for the consulate to receive the case.
  3. Probably not an issue. However, iIf the difference is so low, why would the attorney use something other than what USCIS instructions require? This is not sound practice.....
  4. I agree. That would be the logical and most efficient way for them to process your case. USCIS doesn't always make sense. Some people who file an I-751 get approvals within a couple months. My wife and I had to wait for 44 months (done during a combo interview). Hopefully, you'll have USCIS off your back in a couple months.
  5. You aren't alone......The "what if" mental game can be tortuous. Hang in there....
  6. An internet search shows that USCIS Chicago is experiencing a backlog of N-400s. Some info indicates about 7 months is current wait time. I haven't seen anything which suggests they have stopped processing them. Maybe a couple months more of waiting.
  7. They will know of all her legal entries.....and I would expect some serious questions about the length of her stays (those are not authorized tourism stays) and how she legally re-entered with overstays. An overstay will immediately and automatically void an existing B2.....and getting another B2 with previous multi-year overstays is difficult. Therefore, these dates, if for legal entries, just don't make sense to me. I would not be surprised if they look for misrepresentation of some kind. She might even need a waiver. Which entry did the attorney omit? The 12 year stay?
  8. Not forgiven for issuing of a visa....but would be forgiven for immediate relatives if applying for adjustment of status from within the US . The length of time outside the country could negate any required entry bans.
  9. I wouldn't worry about it. I don't see any requirement to have a strong social media profile. Just be truthful and give them what they want. The mental gymnastics during the immigration process can bring on anxiety. Just stay busy and keep learning the process and forms. Good luck.

  11. NVC does not schedule K-1 interview dates. They schedule only immigrant visa interviews. They send emails by mistake, sometimes.
  12. ***Old Thread Locked to everyone including recent spammers......Spammers, be gone!!!***
  13. There is your answer. Use the email as a written reference at the interview. ***I am moving this discussion to the Asia: South regional forum****
  14. Exactly what fees are you trying to pay? For an immigrant visa (CR-1), that would be the NVC processing fee and the Affidavit of Support fee....which are not applicable for K-1 cases.
  15. Yes. Nothing in immigration is fast.
  16. OK. Thanks. Sometimes NVC incorrectly sends immigrant visa email to K-1 applicants by mistake.
  17. For a K-1? What checklist? There is nothing to submit to NVC for a K-1. For a K-1, NVC simply assigns a DOS case number, then forwards the case to the consulate.
  18. I don't see why that would be needed. Good luck. The journey is near the end.
  19. I have never heard of that. If asked, just refer to your Green card your Social Security Card.
  20. @Jajajajaja **Another duplicate thread removed. Please Do NOT repost this as a new thread in another forum area. Keeping the focus on this single thread reduces confusion and avoids scattered responses***
  21. No. There is no requirement for immigrant applicants to have ties to home country or country of residence.
  22. Then, you will not qualify for a K-1 visa. K-1s are for couples who wish to marry inside the US. After marriage, you would qualify to apply for a CR-1 spousal immigrant visa. You can interview in Australia.
