I don't think it will affect his British citizenship process. Any US immigration uber an F4 visa is far, far down the road.

More than 20 years, probably. F4 Cases submitted on 1 August 2007 are just now obtaining visa numbers. It appears to have moved about 3 months over the last year. I would file as soon as possible.

Was the carrier late in delivering the package to USCIS? Did you send it overnight, priority??? You should have received an extension letter for 48 months from card expiration. Best course of action is to give them exactly what they want... if you have a valid reason for sending it late. Example: Did it take you longer than expected to gather evidence? Was there an illness in your family?

84% of America thinks the US is headed in the wrong direction. Now, the most unpopular VP in US history is suddenly a superstar? I'm not buying it. This is another MSM ploy...

I think it is required. I did one of those a couple years ago. No problem at all since it won't state that you are a US citizen.

1. Only a US citizen can petition a parent. 2. MIL cannot enter the US as a visitor with the intent to stay and adjust status. That is fraud. 3. If your wife is a US citizen, she can start the consular process at any time by filing an I-130 to petition her mother.

1. No biometric fee. 2. 18 months 3. Yes, you can apply at the 3 years minus 90 days mark....but I would wait a day or so.

I would mark it "NO".

Yes. Absolutely.

You must enter either before or at the same time as the beneficiary.

You realize that the prospective jury pool consists of more than just new citizens.

That is inaccurate.....although the more time you actually spend together, the better. There is no requirement to be married for 2 years prior to submitting an I-130.

Where is "here"?

Have you contacted the consulate to ask for an expedite?

You posted this under the CR-1/IR-1 forum, so I assume you are a US citizen. If so, the Visa Bulletin does not apply to your case since a visa number is immediately available. It becomes a matter of waiting to get to the front of the Morocco queue at NVC. This is how the process works after DQ. You might check the Middle East North Africa timelines for an estimate:: 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 date 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.

You have a valid Utah marriage certificate. You are married. Please let us know how it turns out. Good luck.

John and Rose met after the Utah marriage. I am very familiar with their case. Their K-1 was denied, so they married, met, then filed for a spousal visa. I don't recall anyone having done what you propose to do. Perhaps you will be the first since I have been here.

You are legally married in the state of Utah. Spouse is the correct answer. I hope you will keep us updated. This is an extremely uncommon situation. Your experience will be valuable to those who follow you in the world of US immigration. Note: There have been many, many K-1 cases denied at the interview due to being "too married" for a K-1, but not married enough for a CR-1".

Yes.

Thanks. Got it...

***Moved from K-1 Process to Adjustment of Status from K-1 forum as OP and spouse have now married***

This might be helpful: Next steps would be SSN and Adjustment of Status.

Your case is in a pile waiting to be reviewed. Next notification will be an approval or an RFE. Patience is a virtue in immigration. You just have to wait. You can't submit a DS-160 until the case arrives at NVC.
