    Where are you located now?
  2. SalishSea
    Yes, it will be a negative. B visas are judged on the applicant’s ties to their home country, and a job is a reason to return.

    Sure, anyone with a spare $6k can file a WOM. Go for it.
  4. SalishSea
    They can ask for literally anything.

    It’s as accurate as the info VJ members are inputting on their timelines. The processing times on USCIS (by service center) is what I’d go with.

    Do you have other assets/investments which list him as a beneficiary? Whole life policies are not common. If you have retirement or other investment accounts you can name him as a. Beneficiary of, I wouldn’t worry about cancelling that policy.

    Don’t you think that lawyer could possibly have been referring to interview wait times for that consulate…..?

    Job offer for foreign remote job? Not sure that would compel an expedite….

    Can take 6-8 months, which is a well known drawback of the K-1. You cannot work remotely prior to having an EAD or GC.
  10. SalishSea
    Same here. Would never do a K-1 today.

    I think the recent huge increase in fees is what is preventing people from filing within 90 days more than anything else. There is not much else you can do ahead of time, since you will be waiting to apply for a marriage license and then later for the certified copy of the marriage certificate before you can proceed.

    It is considered spamming to start multiple threads on the same topic, which is why the mods discourage it.
  13. SalishSea
    No change to this answer since your last thread about same topic. 6 months from medical exam.

    AP is not intended for spending large amounts of time outside of the U.S. also- what will you do if your AOS is denied while you’re gone? You do realize you wouldn’t be able to come back, right?
  15. SalishSea
    It means “no” to the waiver request.

    Not sure where you’re getting the timeline info, but relying 8 year old timelines is not smart. There is no measurable difference in 2024 between CR-1 and K-1 timelines. Hopefully you also realize that the petition approval is only one step of the process?
  17. SalishSea
    And yet millions of people were not required to do that before being approved for a CR-1 visa. 🤔
  18. SalishSea
    LOL what? You need to do some more research, as your info is incorrect.
  19. SalishSea
    It takes up to two years total. You should familiarize yourself with the forms and current fees. Everything is available on USCIS.gov. If you’re looking at K-1, you also need to learn about adjustment of status and the fees for that. Be proactive.

    Just answer the questions normally. Conversational comprehension isn't black and white. The point isn’t that they care why you want to vote , they care that you are able to communicate the reasons in English.
  21. SalishSea
    Not correct for 2024. Either K-1 or CR-1 will take several years, particularly for a Russian. There is no way around her having to interview at a foreign consulate, since the US no longer has a functional consulate in Russia.

    This case will get all kinds of scrutiny for marriage fraud. I predict it will take several years. You should have the US citizen make an account on Visa Journey. There is nothing "fast" about immigration, especially when you are from a very high fraud country.
  23. SalishSea
    I would be worried about having the I485 denied. Doesn't sound like you can afford to bring an immigrant to the US.
  24. SalishSea
    Immigration officers look at EVERYTHING. Do not imagine you will get away with any type of fraud or document tampering. The US consulate officers in your vague African country know all the tricks.
  25. SalishSea
    You were rightly denied entry because you were de facto trying to live in the US on a nonimmigrant status. Going forward, you should plan to use the entry privilege more like a proper tourist, for reasonable periods of time.
