But you asked the exact same questions back then and got lots of helpful responses, so it's definitely worth reviewing again.

If that's the truth, then that's what you tell them if asked. You seem to think that you will have a long interview with lots of time to provide explanations. But the truth is, that the interviewing officer will already have a good idea if they are going to approve or deny you before your interview even starts. Just go to the interview, answer all questions truthfully, and see what happens. There is no point in trying to come up with every little issue you might get asked about.

The truth...

Unlikely.

Again, you would tell the truth.

Only one option: the truth. But I doubt you will get asked about your "record" being accessed by a lawyer, whatever that means. When is your interview?

Seriously dude. Stop overthinking. Just apply for the visa, go to the interview, and be truthful. Don't worry so much about what you should or shouldn't say or have said.

You're kidding, right? What else do you need?

We can only really guess until you receive the RFE, but this early in the process they normally just scan the file, making sure everything is complete. So my guess is that a form or a page of a form is missing, or a signature or something like that.

It was not paranoia about Muslims. It was you telling them that you have a girlfriend in the US and then trying to correct yourself and hide the fact that you have a girlfriend in the US. I think it is very unlikely that your next attempt will be successful. For any kind of family visa (K-1 or CR-1), you will have to meet in person. Plus, it would probably be a good idea anyway to spend some time in person with the one who you think you want to marry. That meeting does not have to happen in the US; she can travel to you or you can meet in a third country. Without meeting in person, there is no chance to get a K-1 or CR-1 (there are some very rare exceptions to this, but being broke isn't one of them). You could explore other visa options, like employment or student visas.

One thing I learned about mail delivery in the US is that some mail carriers take their job very seriously and compare the name on the piece of mail to the name that is listed inside the mailbox they are delivering to. I have had mail returned to sender because it was addressed to my maiden name instead of my married name (which was the only name on the note inside our mailbox). We easily resolved that by just adding my maiden name to the note, but I believe that there is also a more official way to do that, with a form. Our current mail delivery person is not as strict as the previous one; we now receive tons of mail for previous residents, so the name is not checked at the moment. It just really depends on who delivers your mail. To be safe, I would make sure your last name is listed in the mailbox.

No.

What else do you need? I think you got all the comments anyone can possibly think of...

As others have said, you can not be married more than once. And if you are so concerned about him marrying someone else, the two of you may not be ready for marriage, which is based on trust and commitment.

Really? Many people have responded to your earlier posts, asking clarifying questions that you refused to answer. You will need to provide more information if you want help.

You are waaaaayyyy overthinking this. You were looking for information and you were confused about where to find it so you filled out the wrong form. That's all.

I really don't get what the problem is here. It is perfectly fine to request information about a previous visa. Asking for that information has no effect whatsoever on a new visa application.

Just because your aunt was somehow able to get a visa while the petitioner isn't even in the US, that doesn't mean that your whole family should get visas as well. This visa is meant for family reunification. If the petitioner is not in the US, there is no point in giving anyone a visa.

Where does the petitioner live now? You received excellent advice 6 years ago. No one is getting a family reunification visa if the petitioner is not residing in the US. Has the grandfather/grandmother moved to the US, and did you provide evidence of this move?

This seems like a classic example of what DCF is for. Does the job offer include that you are supposed to start July 1st? That would help to demonstrate the urgency of the DCF request. Good luck!

I knew all this sounded familiar... We went through this whole exercise with OP last year, and then they did not take these crimes very seriously either and even considered lying about them:

You will still have to disclose the arrests, and provide court records. Yes, "they" understand that people make mistakes, but they are also free to decide to not give you a visa because we don't need someone who makes these kind of mistakes in the US. And I'm glad that you feel like your sentence isn't that much, but the crimes really are a big deal. When you are asked about the crimes during a visa interview, your attitude won't help. It's a serious matter, and you'll have to take it seriously.

You seem to want to hear from us that there won't be any issues and that those crimes are no big deal. But they are serious enough to cause issues. We can't give you legal advice; you will need a lawyer for that. However, as already mentioned, the chance of being selected is extremely small, so this really is a non-issue at this time.

Please read the bottom of page 7 of the I-693 instructions: https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-693instr.pdf. If the DS-3025 is complete, and the I-485 was submitted within a year from their medical, they do not need an I-693. You may need to include a cover letter explaining this, maybe even quoting the instructions.

No, you do not need a visa: https://www.mofa.go.jp/j_info/visit/visa/short/novisa.html
