Take a look at my signature.....I know the feeling.

I would immediately request to have the joint I-751 changed to a waiver case. @OldUser stated it well. If either party fails to attend a joint I-751 interview, USCIS will deny both the I-751 and N-400.

I moved this to the N-400 discussion area. I don't see an issue with your N-400 filing, itself, under the 5-year rule. The underlying I-751 might be an issue. Is this a joint I-751 or did you change to a waiver since you are no longer together? You could change to an I-751 waiver at the interview, but be sure to go well prepared to show you entered the marriage in good faith.

That might be your opinion, but it is irrelevant. CBP needs only suspicion...and she is already on their radar. She needs to remain outside the US for an extended amount of time. I think @TBoneTX said it well. I would certainly refrain from trying to enter the US without a proper K-1 or CR-1 visa.

No. It is fine.

I didn't say that you should mail it. I said the opposite. I said you could sign a copy and email her a scan of the signed copy......either way, there is no need to mail her a copy of your tax forms. I should have said "email her a copy" instead of "send".

No. An email copy is fine......or you could print and sign a copy, then send her a scanned copy of the signed one.

I think consultation with a good immigration attorney might be in order regarding the child's possible legal difficulties.

This was a mistake by the CO. There is no way, they should be requiring 2024 tax forms this early. Unfortunately, the shortest path of resistance is to give them what they want. Make sure your new I-864 reflects accurate current annual income. Current annual income = gross income from most recent pay period paystub multiplied times number of pay periods per 12 month period. Good luck.

Oh no. I'm sorry to hear that. Hopefully they will reschedule soon.

A K-3 visa is a non-immigrant visa which allows the spouse of a US citizen to enter the US and apply for permanent residence.

Keep in mind that a person cannot enter the US as a non-immigrant with the intent to stay and adjust status (exception is a K-1).

Being apart is normally a part of immigration. Many of us were separated for more than a year. It isn't fun, but it can be done.

Sadly, many things are out of our control.

I would seek the opinion of another attorney. IMO, that advice is questionable at best. Evry time you have any contact with her, you are giving ammunition to a manipulator, imo. Divorce her asap, serve her in any way you can, then get on with your own life. Right now, you are playing her game.

Too late to fight. Just resubmit asap. Good luck.

Good catch. That proves that the applicant does not have to make the payment.

That doesn't make any sense. I have written checks to USCIS which had only my name on them....no issues at all. The last check I wrote to them was for wife's I-751..where she was the petitioner and also the beneficiary. My checks have only my name on them. I think is an error on USCIS....not you. I think you talked to a Tier 1 rep on the USCIS "disinformation line".

Every couple has their own priorities, and each couple must decide which visa is better for their situation. K-1 More expensive than CR-1 Requires Adjustment of Status after marriage (expensive and requires a lot of paperwork) Spouse can not leave the US until she/he receives approved Advance Parole (approx 3-6 months) Spouse can not work until she/he receives EAD (approx 3-6 months) Some people have had problems with driver licenses, Social Security cards, leases, bank account during this period Spouse will not receive Green Card for many months after Adjustment of Status is filed. A K-1 might be a better choice when 18-21 year old children are immigrating also In some situations, marriage can affect certain Home country benefits, making a K-1 a better choice A denied K-1 is sent back to USCIS to expire K-1 entrant cannot file for citizenship until after having Green Card for 3 years. Once an I-129F has been approved, delaying the case is difficult to impossible if the need arises. CR-1/IR-1 Less expensive than K-1 No Adjustment of Status(I-485, I-131, I-765) required. Spouse can immediately travel outside the US Spouse is authorized to work immediately upon arrival. Spouse receives Social Security Card and Green Card within 2 or 3 weeks after entering the US Opening a bank account, getting a driver's license, etc. are very easily accomplished with GC, SS card, and passport. Spouse has legal permanent Resident status IMMEDIATELY upon entry to US. The clock for citizenship filing starts immediately upon entry to the US. A CR-1/IR-1 case can be delayed indefinitely at NVC if the need arises.

Only the State Board of Nursing for Florida can answer that.

Answer all questions as completely as possible. Approximate dates and "unknown" are acceptable. Note: This will be the least stressful part of the whole process. There will be a LOT of "legwork" to do. Good luck. You have come to the right place.

No. Please don't repost. The Philippines experts will see it here.

*****Moved to the Philippines regional forum for the experts to see the PI specific questions*** You need to contact NVC asap and ask them to schedule both cases together.
