  1. Some people choose to include them. Some people don't. They are not required.
  2. That is an error in their letter. A DS-260 is not applicable for non-immigrant visas such as K-1. It will be a DS-160. In addition, a DS-260 will not be required when you apply to Adjust Status for a Green card. That will be an I-485.
  3. ***Please use ONLY English except in the regional forums****
  4. 4th box- Admitted to the United States as a fiance.......
  5. A pending I-130 should not be the sole grounds for a B-2 denial since a sibling (F4) cannot readily adjust status. Your brother still has a long wait.
  6. But must be disclosed with the I-129f package. I know of one case which was denied because the petitioner failed to disclose an arrest. It was discovered during DOS criminal background checks. Sadly, it resulted in a denial after the consulate interview.
  7. What kind of income are your 1009s for? Personally, I would send the entire 1040 package if not submitting a transcript. Transcripts are preferred. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-864instr.pdf "You must include each and every Form 1040 Schedule, if any, that you filed with your Federal income tax return.
  8. I would marry and file for a spousal visa. Note: Possession of weed is still a violation of federal law. It is EXTREMELY important that he discloses all arrests and criminal records. Failure to do so could lead to a denial..... Good luck.
  9. Unfortunately, unless her circumstances have somehow changed, I would not expect a different outcome. Being an immediate relative of a US citizen does not help her case. It sounds like she has strong ties to her home country.....but the consulate officer has complete discretion.
  10. Well, in general, I'd say yes. A few I-751s are processed fast, while others (such as ours) take a long, long time. Our I-751 took 44 months...we filed in March 2019....approved in December 2022...with no RFEs......weird, but true.
  11. You might be surprised at how many times a new member posts in the wrong forum.....however, generally, the applicant can choose between their country of birth or country of current residence. I realize that an asylum claim might rule out country of birth in this case....and his status in Sweden could rule out his interview there.
  12. I forgot to add that our ROC was still pending too, so we had a combination I-751/N-400 interview. In your case, 3 year rule, the evidence for the N-400 and I-751 will be basically the same.
  13. My wife attained citizenship in 2023, so POTUS proclamation had no effect on our case. We see lots of members still getting Naturalization Certificates....and I don't recall seeing any denials in years. The last one I remember was due to early filing. Some people hire attorneys, and some don't. Peace of mind is a great thing....but the N-400 isn't normally a difficult process. The most time consuming part of the N-400, for us, was finding the departure and arrival dates for wife's international travel...LOL.
  14. Non-Attorney opinion: Of course some attorneys would say that. Some attorneys prey on unfounded fear........and some make stuff up sometimes. My wife and I did the visa interview process, the I-751 , and her N-400 (5 year rule) processes ourselves with no issues. The N-400 was was the easiest. It was a guided online process of answering questions and uploading a few documents (5 year rule). Even with an attorney, YOU still have to gather the evidence and documentation. A denied N-400, in itself, would not cause an NTA. For an attorney to state that as a blanket statement is malpractice, imho. That might happen only in an extremely rare case where the legal residence was fraudulently acquired. I don't recall seeing any of those.
