  1. Go for it!!! My wife's I-751 was approved after waiting 44 months.....with no RFEs.
  2. Some people have applied and succeeded on Day 1 after entry. Modern data processing has helped the efficiency.
  3. If you reread the comments, you will see that marriage is totally irrelevant. A person, married to a US citizen or not, cannot enter the US as a visitor with the intent to stay and adjust status. Her marriage to you gives her NO rights to stay in the US. Marriage to you does not make her a legal resident....nor does it give her the right to enter the US with a tourist visa, then remain. That would be fraudulent. That would be misrepresenting her intent under a tourist visa.
  4. No. Tourist visas are non-immigrant visas. Entering with the intent to use a tourist visa to immigrate is fraud. Misrepresentation is not taken lightly.
  5. **Thread moved to the Philippines regional forum where the PI experts will see this question***
  6. Next communication will be approval or (much less likely) RFE. Good luck.
  7. USCIS site maintenance is causing an issue it appears. It happened about a week or two ago for a short time. I think all cases will return within a few days.
  8. Rule #1: Never lie to an immigration officer or on a US government form.
  9. 1. DCF is not available if you aren't married. 2. Marriage is not possible until her divorce is final 3. She cannot enter the US as a visitor (including VWP, an F-1, etc) with the intent to stay and adjust status. You can move back whenever you want. Then you could establish physical domicile and find employment. No couple likes to be separated, but immigration, sometimes, requires it. Some of us were separated for more than a year. It isn't fun, but it can be done. Another option is to re-locate to SK, marry, secure employment in the US, and seek the DCF route. Good luck in your journey.
  10. It takes longer when a fee waiver request is sent. I wouldn't resend anything yet.
  11. The interview is in a few weeks. A gap in employment is normally not an issue. Your income over the next year (current annual income) is the key.
  12. Well qualified joint sponsor if your consulate accepts them. That is the only route. Denial due to Public charge is a real thing....and living in the US is expensive.
  13. Site maintenance has caused this to happen in the very recent past. Try again in a day or so.
  14. Good idea. You just never know if the officer will conduct the interview or not.
  15. No. In our case, the local office notified us by email us 2 days prior to wife's N-400 interview to inform us that it would be a combo interview. The N-400 interview letter did not mention the I-751. Others are informed when they arrive for the N-400.
  16. Chapter 5 - Conditional Permanent Resident Spouses and Naturalization | USCIS " In general, USCIS requires that an applicant for naturalization must have an approved petition to remove conditions before an officer adjudicates the naturalization application. However, certain CPRs may be eligible for naturalization without filing a petition or having the conditions removed if applying for naturalization on the basis of: Marriage to a U.S. citizen employed abroad; or Qualifying military service.[4]"
  17. Once the case has been sent out from NVC, it is no longer their case. The cases have been solved as I stated. Since you have already contacted both consulates, you just have to wait.
  18. Here is the actual official source for fees: G-1055, Fee Schedule (uscis.gov)
  19. Already answered in your previous thread. ***Similar topics merged*** if the case was already sent from NVC to the wrong consulate, you must contact the CORRRECT consulate and ask them to initiate a transfer. You can also contact the incorrect consulate and inform them.
  20. You both need to study the requirements for a K-1. Not meeting prior is not an option. You will not meet a "USCIS staffer" for a visa. My advice is to become an "A student" of the process before attempting to apply. Good luck.
  21. But USCIS does not issue visas of any kind. Anyone applying for a B2 visa is already assumed to have immigrant intent......that obstacle must be overcome with strong ties to your country. Religion is irrelevant. Good luck.
  22. There is no biometrics fee. The fee is $750.00. The biometric fee was included in the April 1 fee increases.
