  1. One Visa Journey member (in a thread you have seen) said: "I traveled 7x in the last year on advance parole as a long time overstay and never had any issue. I did a ton of searching on this forum and others and could not find someone with issues using valid AP to re-enter. It's not zero risk, but it's minimal. Matter of Arabally has not changed and this issue has not changed. "
  2. I am truly sorry for your loss. I have always found that advice from an attorney to be boarding on absurd. Ask him how many people with a valid AP document has he known to be denied entry. I recall none since I have been a member here (April 2016). Travel is why they issue AP documents. Many, many people travel and re-enter the US via AP every day. Bring passport, AP document, EAD, and receipt for the I-485. Personally, I would go. Do you want to miss this trip based on a fearful attorney's advice?
  3. Never heard of that even being in the scope of CBP duties. The visa is approved at the consulate...not at POE.
  4. Visa Journey history says otherwise. Where are you seeing this stuff? I have heard of only ONE K-1 entrant being denied entry...ONE!!!!!! That was because when the CBP officer asked "Do you plan to marry withing 90 days?", the guy said "Maybe...maybe not". Stop reading FB and Reddit horror stories. They are not good sources. Among valid reasons to worry, this is NOT one of them.
  5. Yes, They do background checks on sponsoring spouses during AOS. Very, very good attorney territory, imo.
  6. ***Moved to the Philippines Regional forum where similar PI questions are answered by our esteemed Philippine Experts.***
  7. The VJ guide says 2 photos of petitioner and 2 photos of spouse.
  8. ****This topic is locked to prevent violation of the VJ Terms of Service***Do not restart this topic in any way*** Condone or instruct, either directly or indirectly, others on how to commit fraudulent or illegal immigration activities in any way, shape, manner or method.
  9. $625 for online filing for an I-130 is paid to USCIS upon filing. The two NVC fees will be paid to NVC after I-130 approval.....that could take about a year.
  10. It is very easy to drive yourself crazy with the "what if" game. I think we have all played that "game".
  11. Personally, I don't expect a problem. The photo doesn't look a wedding to me. It looks to be just a photo-shoot. I don't recall your country as having been an issue with "too married for a K-1" in the past. All problems of this kind are normally handled by the Consulate Officer at the interview. I wouldn't worry about it.
  12. I would hire an attorney to help draft a letter to support an N-565. You may be out of luck until you can get the NC corrected.
  13. @Squiggle, As you know, extended AP for Pakistani cases is extremely common. In addition, AP cannot be expedited. I agree with @Boiler that suing might be the only option....and that doesn't guarantee success. Please keep us updated.
  14. ***Moved to the Africa: Sub Saharan regional forum***
  15. If given the choice, I would return to home country and finish consular processing. The niece cannot adjust status until the primary beneficiary is inside the US. She would be a Green card holder immediately upon entering the US with an immigrant visa.
  16. That was, imo, the answer every CO should give. All visas go through some sort of administrative processing and verification after the interview. There is no way to predict how long that will take. Seems normal. Just watch the CEAC status. Good luck. If there was a problem, the interviewee would know. I don't think there is an issue.
  17. A few more years to go. People with priority date of 01Aug2007 are just now becoming current.
  18. F-4 visa. This is completely normal for visas which have priority dates not yet current. Please check the current visa bulletin. Visa Bulletin For September 2024 (state.gov)
