  1. Becoming engaged prior to meeting is not something that will lend credibility to your relationship. In fact, it would behoove you to have as much time spent in person prior to filing any type of petition, particularly a K-1 for a country like Russia.
  2. There is a premium processing option for that visa class? There really is not sponsorship for F-1. You need to show that you have adequate funds to pay for your education.
  3. Oh, apologies! I thought you meant August 2023. Right, so you're well within normal processing time at 4 months in.
  4. What is your field office? That is way longer than most. Estimates for our field office, for example, is currently 5.5 months.
  5. Expect scrutiny with trying to bring over yet another immigrant, especially if they are from a high-fraud country.
  6. Make sure she is okay with not being able to work or travel for up to 8-12 months. Adjustment of status is not fast.
  7. It doesn’t matter at all, for the purpose of U.S. immigration.
  8. She will have to marry him and once she’s here with a GC, she can petition him as spouse of LPR. Will take many years.
  9. Doesn’t matter. Someone is adjusting from a nonimmigrant visa, rather than being petitioned. So- the trade off to waiting out the queue overseas is the extra expenses.
  10. If cost was a concern, she should have petitioned him for a proper immigrant visa, instead of adjusting from an overstay.
  11. Pretty sure the tickets the OP refers to are to get to the interview…
  12. OP, if you’re currently on your state’s Medicaid program, how do you plan to support another immigrant? I would think your focus should be on improving your skills and job prospects at this point.
  13. I agree you’ll have problems. You brought someone here that you promised to support financially, and she has used publicly-funded resources.
  14. Did you even read the guides or do any research whatsoever? You seem wholly unprepared. At the very least, look at the forms.
  15. That is not a reason to expedite.
  16. Not just risky, it’s FRAUD. Petition her for a visa, properly..
  17. K-1s do not submit further documentation or evidence at the NVC stage like CR/IRs do.
  18. He is out of status and needs to leave the US immediately.
  19. Isn’t an E2 visa an investor visa? Why would he have an employer?
  20. What government shutdown?
