    If you are worried about this for the I-134, what will you do for the I-865 when it comes time to AOS? Time to get a job or find a joint sponsor.
  2. SalishSea
    How did they get admitted at the border without requesting asylum?
  3. SalishSea
    Lots of people. All you can do is wait. AP timeframes cannot really be predicted. Like Boiler said, the only status with meaning is ISSUED.
  4. SalishSea
    No.
  5. SalishSea
    Please familiarize yourself with the USCIS.gov website. The requirements are all spelled out, along with forms and instructions. It’s in your best interest to be informed of basic requirements.

    Nope. The process of getting here on an immigrant visa will take two years. Anyone with $160 is free to apply for a B2 tourist visa. Her chances of getting one at low, and she cannot use it to live in the US.

    Why would someone need to have established US credit history to used a credit card while on vacation here? Tourists use credit cards from home while traveling all the time.
  8. SalishSea
    There is no visa that allows her to live here while it is processing. If she has a B-2, she can visit, subject to CBP approval.
  9. SalishSea
    Sounds like you have some basic reading to do.
  10. SalishSea
    Not possible. Your visa is not yet available.
  11. SalishSea
    Nope. Biometrics are part of every immigration process. USCIS happily collects biometrics fees for applications or petitions that are later denied.
  12. SalishSea
    What are the options for those who would like to switch from USCIS to another service for our immigration needs?
  13. SalishSea
    There is no “quickest.” The process will take a couple of years. She cannot legally live in the US while waiting out the process.
  14. SalishSea
    We didn’t even have AOS pending when I added my husband.
  15. SalishSea
    Best bet is to follow the instructions to the letter, rather than sending unsolicited items.
  16. SalishSea
    No. Go about it the right way and petition her for the proper visa. The petition phase for the K-1 is 15.5 months currently. Either fiance or spousal visa will take two years. There is nothing fast, or cheap about US immigration, and she can't come here on a visitor visa to live permanently anyway.
  17. SalishSea
    'Late filing' isn't a thing for citizenship. There is no need to file, ever.
  18. SalishSea
    There are no US consulates in the US. You've been petitioned for a visa, therefore the interview happens at the US consulate in your country. The visa is what you enter the US with. It seems you both should do quite a bit of reading and research, as 9 months in, you still don't have a basic understanding of the process. Not understanding it can cost you money and time.
  19. SalishSea
    Both options will take at least two years. You can live wherever you want.
  20. SalishSea
    God, no. Never, ever give out passwords! That is basic internet 101. They are asking for social media usernames.
  21. SalishSea
    Sounds like it was an overstay from a nonimmigrant visa, not a K-1. OP, choosing to overstay and AOS (rather than going through the proper channels for an immigrant visa) does result in being in limbo in some ways. That’s just the deal.
  22. SalishSea
    They can make an appearance at any time, but again, it’s rare. Why are you so nervous about it? If there are no red flags about your relationship and AOS, there is no need to worry.
  23. SalishSea
    Reusing biometrics is done sometimes, but not always. Lick off the draw maybe? Even if they’d opted to reuse yours , you’d still have to pay the biometrics fee.
  24. SalishSea
    Home visits are quite rare. As long as your marriage is bonafide and you have plenty of evidence to back that up, you should be fine.
  25. SalishSea
    She was referring to the language barrier that the OP is fixating on in terms of whether the fiancé can have an interview in Russian. This thread is one of the most bizarre in all my years of reading VJ.
