  1. Sorry, “jokes” was a typo, and it’s too late to edit. I meant “holes.” You left some vital details out of your original post.
  2. Okay so zero percent of this was clear from your initial post. It's not our fault if we can’t understand a poorly-explained story with jokes in it. You were denied entry for immigrant intent. You will need to develop stronger ties do Canada if you want to be admitted to the U.S. With a history of illegal crossings (into either country), that will be challenging.
  3. So you crossed from the US into Canada illegally, and then tried to come back into the U.S., on what type of visa? What is your citizenship?
  4. “Insulted” you for crossing the border? What does that even mean? If you want meaningful feedback about your situation, you’ll have to try to explain it adequately.
  5. I can’t speak to the laws of other countries, but the bottom line is that people visit the U.S. on nonimmigrant visas are not permitted to do any type of work (including online) without authorization.
  6. Anyway, all of this was explained to you in depth in your previous thread about it: https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/812878-please-help-travelling-while-adjustment-of-status/#comment-10918339
  7. You entered on ESTA, then decided to marry and try to adjust status. They will rightly assume you’ll try to do the same thing, to avoid the queue. You could try for a B visa, but I don’t see that happening either, with your history.
  8. OP, have you read the guides? The petition processing time is only one part of the overall process.
  9. What do you mean? That affidavit isn’t a thing in the U.S. If that is a special requirement of the Chinese government, you should ask a mod to move your thread to the China forum.
  10. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/
  11. One year? Where are you getting that timeline? I believe the petition processing time for the I-129F is still 15 months, is it not?
  12. If you do a CR-1, there is no way to know which processing center the petition will go to, as it isn’t based on the petitioner’s state of residency. All immigrant visa interviews (as well as K-1) for Canada go through Montreal. Both K-1 and CR-1 processes will take up to two years start to finish.
  13. You will not be authorized to work remotely until you have an EAD, so being able to “work from anywhere” isn’t actually an advantage.
  14. Since at least 2018 (the year we did our K-1), possibly before.
  15. 99% of I-129F petitions are processed at the California Service Center. The other 1% are sent to Vermont for processing due to certain (AWA) criminal history of the petitioner. This is true for other petition types. I-129F are ALL processed in California, and have been for years.
  16. Nope. She can only enter the U.S. on her immigrant visa if you are already in the U.S., or are accompanying her.
  17. Certainly seems like a communication mishap. Perhaps they mistakenly thought you were married? There is no visa that allows for anyone (even U.S. citizens- except for K-1 fiancé visas) to bring over unmarried partners.
  18. You can't combine your brother in -law's income with your husband's. Yes, not working will affect your chances of him getting a visa, as will you not being domiciled in the United States. I suggest you read the I-864 form to get a better idea of the requirements.
  19. No, they can't just "stay." They have to be petitioned for an immigrant visa. The brother is very unlikely to get a student visa, as he very clearly has immigrant intent.
