  1. I guess the question though is: if you filed the N400 9 months ago, and are just now about to combo interview, did it really help? Or would your I-751 be approved by now anyway? The cases where it seems to have definitively helped are like those of @Crazy Cat, who had radio silence for 44 months, and then a combo interview almost immediately after filing. Our LIN filed I-751 was approved 18 months after filing, and the USCIS processing time for that center is 20 months. N-400 processing time for Seattle FO is 9 months. Whenever the husband gets round to filing it, I’m expecting it to be adjudicated within that timeframe. We’re in no particular hurry.
  2. No…..but we DO know how long the wait is for sibling visa numbers to become available, and that uncles cannot petition adult nephews.
  3. If the uncle had petitioned 20 years ago, and if the OP’s bf has not aged out.
  4. LOL? If you mean as a derivative on a sibling visa, then yes. Did the uncle petition your bf’s parent?
  5. No worries at all. They are looking for infectious disease more than anything, specifically TB, when it comes to CXR.
  6. No, he could not have. There is no visa pathway for a USC to petition a nephew.
  7. And every single person here has said that neither option will “satisfy” that requirement. The advice you’ve gotten has been dismissed by you immediately. Not sure what you’re hoping for. Someone to come along who did what you’re proposing? Won’t happen. If you don’t like the feedback you’re getting, that’s on you. It’s not because anyone is refusing to help.
  8. I don’t need to reread it slowly. You said “his uncle plans to send for him, too.” No one here knows what that means.
  9. If he lies on the application about having family in the US, don’t expect a positive outcome. Are you saying his uncle wants to petition him for an immigrant visa?
  10. See, that’s just the thing. YOU might do the right thing, but thousands from his country have not in the past. This is why he won’t get the B visa.
  11. This is a well known drawback to the choice you made to adjust on an ESTA. Not sure there is anything you can do but to wait.
  12. Boiler meant that your bf should be the one to travel, which is exactly what USCIS will say in their denial of a waiver.
  13. Like others have said, he can try to fly to Canada or Mexico. Look, you asked for feedback, right? You have VJ’s senior members commenting on your thread, which means years and years and years of experience with US immigration. Don’t like the feedback? Feel free to ignore it and pursue your path as you wish. Please report back to us how you fare, and good luck. Cool. Go for it.
  14. In denying your petition, USCIS will say that you could have met in a third country. Don’t think this is their first rodeo. Also it ours- we see denials for this all the time.
  15. No. You will not be approved without ever having met. Also, the “Mr and Mrs” thing, if that’s what you’re calling each other, could lead them to think you’re already married, and ineligible. I think you need to research the eligibility and requirements of the K-1 visa a bit more.
  16. You will not get a waiver, I wouldn’t even waste time asking.
  17. I’ve no doubt yours is next, as I know your file was meticulously complete!
  18. Never lie to DOS/USCIS. OP references ‘daughters,’ not ‘newborn.’
  19. Obviously the answer is “yes.” It doesn’t ask for the applicant to describe the reason for the denial, does it?
