    Tourist visa

    SalishSea replied to Lrss's topic in Tourist Visas

    They suspect immigrant intent. Very difficult bar to overcome, especially if other family members have adjusted status on B visas.

    Tourist visa

    SalishSea replied to Lrss's topic in Tourist Visas

    You can’t call to discuss someone else’s tourist application.

    Yes, the stepchild/stepparent relationship must be legally established by marriage prior to the stepchild turning 18.

    No thread jack. You should start your own thread.

    Well, what happens if you go, and they want to ask her questions, but she's at work? It's really not that complicated to work out why it is important that your spouse attends.
  6. SalishSea
    If you are removing conditions and naturalizing under a marriage-based GC, she obviously needs to go.
  7. SalishSea
    Your title and original post literally asks “when can I file.” Some people are confused about whether they are filing for a spouse, like they did for the immigrant visa petition.
  8. SalishSea
    YOU don’t file for that. SHE can certainly file for that when eligible.

    There may be info posted on the US embassy Haiti website. In similar situations we have seen, all visa operations would be deferred and any resources used solely for the purpose of assisting US citizens to get out of the country. There is not much you can do.
  10. SalishSea
    Ah, so two waivers needed?
  11. SalishSea
    Well then obviously a B visa is not going to be a viable alternative.
  12. SalishSea
    None of that is required for the petition.
  13. SalishSea
    They can't do that. They need a B visa to visit. And based on the fact that you posted this on the 'Bringing Family Members of US Citizens' board, you will need to petition your family member properly. They cannot visit and stay to adjust.
  14. SalishSea
    Or, if it is denied during overseas visit.

    In this case, CR-1 would have been a much smarter choice. If you need to travel, I wouldn't rely on advanced parole. There is no guaranteed timeline, and it is not a substitute for a green card.
  16. SalishSea
    That isn't it at all. US citizens have been scammed for green cards by people from third-world and developing countries. It pays to be vigilant whenever there is a large difference in equity in a relationship. Many of these marriages would never happen if living in the US was off the table....

    So does filing a fiance visa petition without being completely sure. After all, it does require intent to marry. It is not a "try it out and see" type of deal.
  18. SalishSea
    How is he legally in the US while waiting for CR-1 visa?
  19. SalishSea
    No, and no. Add things that are not required won't increase chance of approval.
  20. SalishSea
    Are you talking about petition denials? Because the State Department does not publish such info on visas.
  21. SalishSea
    Also- having kids neither hurts nor helps the chances of a denial.
  22. SalishSea
    No K-2 is needed.
  23. SalishSea
    This is also my observation.
  24. SalishSea
    They will wonder how you can afford frequent, long vacations. Many people don’t realize that even remote work is not allowed on a B visa.
  25. SalishSea
    3-6 months from start to finish, visa in hand? That has never been the case in all the years I’ve been on VJ.
