    You’re sure it’s 18, not 21?
  2. SalishSea
    Ah, right. Somehow I was adding the time it will take for the kid to become a USC. I did think it was 21 though, not 18.

    That would not happen for years and years. At least 25+ years from now.

    Our re-use notice was Dec 29, 2021, and received date was Dec 1, 2021.

    I can't see how they would not - after all, you will need to submit your passport, which will clearly show your status.

    Potential green card how?

    Crazy Cat answered initially, and you still seemed to think it could be because of beneficiary's country, so that's why I was expanding on why it is not. You're in for a long journey, might as well buckle up and learn as much as you can about the processes involved

    You are talking about travel, not immigration. Those are two very different things in terms of family court. Unless your husband can demonstrate that the mother allows the child to move to the US permanently (full-time), I don't see an immigrant visa being approved. In many divorce settlements for which children are involved, one parent cannot move the child to another school district without the other's consent, let alone to another country.

    In what way does this make sense? The lockbox that receives and unbundles the packets, and processes payments is in no way looking at any detail about the packet, such as beneficiary's country or whether you're eligible. That comes like 15 months later, when the petition is adjudicated. The lockbox is simply making sure that the forms used are current and that the payment is correct.

    16.5 months.

    The burden is on you. They’re not going to do any of your legwork to help you get a visa.

    You’re making it sound like the OP can just saunter in to the consulate with this stuff. Is that how it works? Are you suggesting he will get a B visa after all?

    Your husband will need to complete an I-864, and you will need to complete an I-864A (I am assuming you file federal taxes as MFJ?). The intending immigrant's spouse is the primary sponsor, your brother can be a joint sponsor if eligible and if he agrees to it.

    In the nearly 8 years I've been reading VJ, I have been both denials and approvals. You just have to use the search option, or look at the IMBRA/Special Topics lower subforum of K-1 for historical posts.
  15. SalishSea
    Petitions submitted by people with AWA-related criminal backgrounds take much longer to be adjudicated. There is no way for anyone on VJ to know whether you will get a denial, anything is possible.

    Financial hardship for expedite in this case doesn't make sense. It could bring up public charge issues.
  17. SalishSea
    Right, and their decision cannot be appealed.
  18. SalishSea
    USCIS and DOS are different agencies, with different rules and guidelines. It could have been different had OP stayed, and been subject to USCIS rules.
  19. SalishSea
    You can't fabricate reasons just to get an expedite. The medical was about your husband, and it was denied.
  20. SalishSea
    Medical expedites are generally not approved for the benefit of the immigrant.

    You’re getting into TOS and fraud territory now. I’m out. FYI, marrying a USC in order to get an immigration visa is 100% FRAUD, and something the consulate will be looking at, given that you now have an inadmissibility for overstay.
  22. SalishSea
    You won’t be getting a waiver for another B visa. They already know you are an overstay risk. You are many years away from needing an I-601, since you haven’t been petitioned for an immigrant visa.
  23. SalishSea
    Are you asking this because you’re considering marrying a USC for this reason?
  24. SalishSea
    Next step: wait out the ten year bar and try again. Good luck.
  25. SalishSea
    Read the guides here on VJ - all of the info on forms are there. Don't be lazy and ask people to do your work for you. It is your process, and you need to own it. Since you are the second person visiting on a B2 to marry and adjust status through here, there will be scrutiny.
