  1. “Please advise” about what? What they were told is correct. We always tell people here on VJ to apply for the SSN immediately when arriving, before marrying.
  2. There is no “waiting period” for refilling a second K-1 after a denial. Not sure where you’re getting some of theee ideas.
  3. Have you read the requirements for a K-1? None of that is required. We didn’t submit any photos at all.
  4. Your 129F will be adjudicated at the California Service Center, not Texas. I think it’s taking 6-12 months on average.
  5. Your brother lives with you and contributes to your household income?
  6. As with visa denials, you must have some idea of why your AOS would be denied….. Could even be because of statements made to CBP when you entered (presumably on a non-immigrant visa?), questions about the bonafides of your marriage, etc.
  7. No. You cannot file to remove conditions until two years (minus 90 days) from the “resident since” date on your green card. There is no “additional” to pay for requesting an SSN on the visa application form. You can call (or go in person) to the SSA to check the status of your card if you’re worried about it.
  8. What visa are you trying to adjust from? Tax returns and marriage certificate should have been included in the initial packet, not brought to the interview. The interview is for providing additional evidence collected since filing.
  9. Yeah, but not everyone will have a Duterte hotline to call ahead and pull the strings.
  10. But wait: above you said “no way they’ll say no if I’m there.” Why would you not take full advantage of such a guarantee?
  11. 1). Yes 2). No
  12. The post you’re replying to is not actually incorrect. You may want to re-read it.
  13. How did he enter the US? Who petitioned him?
  14. Is she your spouse or fiancée ? You refer to both, which can lead to problems for you.
  15. Depending on the reason, marrying may not lead to a visa either. May want to consider the USC moving to your country if you still want to be together.
  16. Any sort of deception at a consular interview is not recommended, and can come back to bite you later. Obviously he was planning to visit you had he gotten the visa. There is no way to know at this point if it will be an issue for an immigrant visa, but going forward, just be truthful.
  17. OP are you already married?
  18. Why did you leave all your documentation in the UK? And sorry, but nothing adds up about your story. Particularly the idea that you are in the US on a visa afforded only to high-achieving geniuses.
  19. If all it takes for you to guarantee your MIL gets a tourist visa is to “pull strings” via a phone call, why would you even consider making a 15 hour $2k flight?
  20. You can absolutely ask for your passport back and return to the UK.
  21. That doesn’t make sense. CBP “confiscated” your passport? Where are you now? Were you admitted? EB1A visas are for Nobel/pulitzer prize winners and the like. I hardly think you’d be fired from such an esteemed profession for something like that.
  22. No, it won’t. All immigrant visa interviews for Canada are done in Montreal.
  23. That’s not how that works. Doctors don’t make the vaccine requirements. You definitely need a waiver, which is only approved by the consulate, and adds 1+ year to the overall wait time for a visa.
