    I assume this is a rhetorical question. Obviously, health care in the United States is VERY expensive. A cancer diagnosis can easily bankrupt a family. It may not be *required,* but it is *responsible* to care about providing health insurance when you bring over an immigrant.

    Travel insurance doesn't cover residents of the US. She will need regular health insurance.

    You won’t get an extension- USCIS doesn’t admit people at the border, CBP does. No one is “owed” a 6 month visit. This is bordering on abuse of B-2 and you risk losing the privilege.

    Will take many, many years.

    People are responding to your question above, about how it could be an issue.

    Cancelling petitions doesn't mean they are "erased" from the system. Your immigrant intent and filing history remains on file.

    CBP may wonder how she can afford to take such a long break from work. Hopefully she realizes she cannot work while in the US, including working remotely for a foreign employer.

    Three months' supply of prescription medications for personal use is a totally reasonable amount to bring. Make sure they're all in the original pharmacy container with his name and the name of the drug. Do not bring ANY form of cannabis whatsoever, even if it is an Rx. Personally, I'd get cold packs for anything that must be refrigerated. Otherwise, you won't know whether it was kept at the recommended temps for the entire trip. I would stash it in the hand luggage vs checked bag. Amazon sells TSA-approved zippered thermal packs for medications that you can stick ice packs into.

    Think about it. No one goes on a "vacation" and then can simply uproot their lives and not come home. Unlike many Filipinos, she was given the privilege of a B-2. She has clear immigrant intent. Don't defraud the United States simply because you are disappointed that you have to wait in the queue like everyone else.

    Why have you not filed an I-130 petition for your spouse? That is the most common and straightforward way of getting him an immigrant visa.

    You're not being singled out. This is an issue for Pakistani males, for a variety of reasons, such as bad behavior and crimes committed by fellow Pakistanis, and lack of record-keeping in Pakistan. Had he been interviewed in Islamabad, the outcome would be the same.

    Yes, if it impacts your income. You will need to show evidence of current income, as per paystubs. You may need a joint sponsor if you time your pregnancy to coincide.

    Seriously?

    This. The USCIS instructions are the best guide.
  15. SalishSea
    The letter of intent can simply be a “to whom it may concern.” Don’t overthink it.

    You wrote that it says “refused,” which is the default term for AP.
  17. SalishSea
    That’s definitely not how that works.
  18. SalishSea
    Sounds like you’re in administrative processing. There is no timeline for that.

    Hopefully you realize he cannot work remotely while visiting.

    Which is fine, as long as he/she only wants to visit as a tourist. Your GF and her children need immigrant visas if they want to live here.

    These are real questions that will matter to USCIS/DOS. To ignore the legal implications of his case is foolish, IMHO.
  22. SalishSea
    Semantics, but what Boiler is saying is that it is not a visa.
  23. SalishSea
    Don't even think about lying on the petition. Also - just curious, but how is someone who sees fit to love and marry two women at once, okay with immigrating and living separately from BOTH of them forever? That seems incongruent.
  24. SalishSea
    Kind of like how crimes committed in other countries still count for US immigration.

    Use the search feature to search for VisaJourney timelines for those consulates.
