    So she will need a waiver?
  2. SalishSea
    No, he won’t be able to do that.
  3. SalishSea
    “Opt out”. Does she have the cash to pay for whatever medical services she might need, like surgery, cancer care, drugs, etc?
  4. SalishSea
    Kinda like how Stockholm covers Norway…..
  5. SalishSea
    How is this even relevant? And why not direct the “friend” here to ask his own questions, rather than trying to impart third hand info?
  6. SalishSea
    Exactly. OP assumed those of us responding didn’t have first-hand knowledge because our replies didn’t fit with his incorrect assumptions.
  7. SalishSea
    I agree. Because of the time sensitivity, and how convoluted this case is, I would try that, OP. There may not be much help available until after the new year, though.
  8. SalishSea
    Then I wouldn’t worry. You should get the NOA1 receipt shortly.

    “They” don’t “expect” anything. Why did you choose to pursue a K-1, instead of the CR-1? We have all had to wait our turns in the queue. US immigration is a series of long waits for each steps. If you decide to marry, you’ll abandon the K-1. You can then start the CR-1 process if you want. What method of payment did you use? Was the check cashed/card charged? Did you correctly send your packet to the lockbox?

    Exactly . Coming in confidently incorrect, and asking VJ veterans offering CORRECT advise to not comment….. so tiresome.
  11. SalishSea
    In that case, why did you create this long, unnecessary thread and reprimand those of us trying to help by explaining how this works?
  12. SalishSea
    Time to remind you of the TOS for this site…… Also- why do you need to redo the medical? We didn’t. If you voluntarily deferred doing part of it (vaccines) then that’s on you.
  13. SalishSea
    And fire the attorney for giving very bad advice. There is no way out of removing conditions, even if USCIS makes an error. You should have filed while the 1-90 was pending.
  14. SalishSea
    You most likely can’t.
  15. SalishSea
    You don’t qualify for the visa. There is no appealing the decision, if that was your question.
  16. SalishSea
    If she’s working remotely while in the US on a tourist visa, that is illegal, and could compromise her ability to get an immigrant visa or green card in the future!

    The “front-loading” for difficult consulates is done in case further evidence isn’t looked at at the interview, because the CO isn’t obligated to look at it. it would be helpful if you did a timeline or told us which consulate you’re going through. There is a yes/no check box on the form that pertains to criminal history. Therefore, no further info is required from you. Background checks on the USC will be pulled by USCIS and/or DOS to confirm. edit: just noticed that you did say in the OP it is Brazil! I’m not familiar enough with that consulate to know whether it is wise to front-load. You can get country-specific info by clicking on the portal.

    No, you don’t have “either option.” Either they are currently here, or they are not. They can’t enter with intent to adjust status- that’s immigration fraud. They have not paid into Medicare/social security, and will not be eligible for the benefits. As others have said, after five years they may be eligible to purchase Medicare benefits. Won’t be cheap.
  19. SalishSea
    If so, you’ll receive a 221g, pending medical results. Probably smarter to just delay interview.
  20. SalishSea
    In your other post, you’re asking about the petition. If you’re at the pre-petition stage, you don’t need to be worrying about W2s, as that’s 1-2 years from now.
  21. SalishSea
    You have just explained precisely why photos are NOT evidence of the one required meeting in the two years prior! Letters/affidavits are also nonsense; not required, or requested. Please download the instructions for the I-129F from USCIS.gov for reference.
  22. SalishSea
    I think you’ll find that it takes longer than 15 years. His country of chargeability will still be India.
  23. SalishSea
    You cannot expedite for pregnancy. Sure, you can ask- but don’t be surprised if they refuse. And HCMC is not an “easy” consulate.
  24. SalishSea
    It will be processed at California, unless you have certain AWA-related criminal history, in which case it will go to Vermont. The random assignment of other processing centers is for other petition types, not 129F.
  25. SalishSea
    The thing is, the “ongoing relationship” evidence isn’t required for K-1. The requirement is evidence of meeting once during the immediate prior two years, and evidence of both partners’ willingness (and eligibility) to marry each other within 90 days. That’s it. Feel free to send what you wish. For some high fraud/high risk consulates (Lagos, for example) it is beneficial to “front load” the petition with additional evidence of meetings, and ONE meeting (minimum requirement) might not be enough. But for low/average fraud locations, the requirements set by USCIS are usually adequate. YMMV.
