    That doesn't sound right. What makes you think the application hadn't been accepted? Accepted just means received and not rejected, a process that happens a week after you mail it. I have never heard of requesting a change to consular processing by sending a letter to USCIS. I think you would have to use an I-824.

    If MIT is your goal, you may want to write using proper spelling, grammar and syntax. The shorthand ("ur", "n" for and etc) you use in your posts is not typically used by adults in the United States.

    1) He was making conversation. He doesn't care whether you apply to MIT. 2) If you want to attend MIT or other university in the US, you need an F1, NOT a B visa. 3) If you truly just want to visit for tourism purposes, why are you so anxious and posting the same questions over an over, and why fixate on the conversation with CBP?
  4. SalishSea
    This was an American just making conversation with you. You are reading way too much into it.

    What an odd statement. They have created a mess for themselves by lying on the forms. They will be required to show either evidence of that marriage or evidence of a divorce.
  6. SalishSea
    No. The AP is done when the status changes to "ISSUED."
  7. SalishSea
    There is no "re-sending." YOU can file ADDITIONAL petitions for them. It will take a year, but they will get visas faster than in the family preference category.

    Do you understand how the Visa Bulletin works? I feel like you do not, so I suggest reading up on it.
  9. SalishSea
    Correct, you cannot enter the US with a cancelled visa. Doubtful whether she would even be boarded by the airline.

    Actually, more evidence is required for AOS than for the K-1. Way more.
  11. SalishSea
    In the late 1800s.

    It may take 8-12 months for him to get AP. You will need a Plan B. K-1 is not a good choice if you want to be able to travel before the GC is received. Probably best if he delays travelling and sorts this out before coming over. In general, the visa will be valid for six months from the date of the medical.

    Not only that, but he would have had to sign the I-864. I don't understand how someone could not recall this process.
  14. SalishSea
    We’ve submitted NO photos for any part of the process thus far….1-129F, AOS and ROC. No RFEs or delays.

    Is he originally from Pakistan? Did he submit police records from his home country?
  16. SalishSea
    Okay, well @Lemonslice went through Montreal, so I'd follow her advice that post-interview processing of additional documents is just slow, and it's not unusual.
  17. SalishSea
    Not uncommon for Montreal, especially if the beneficiary is originally from a different country.
  18. SalishSea
    Just the deal with busy consulates. It could be related to his country of citizenship. Did they request a form DS-5535?
  19. SalishSea
    F2A retrogressed and is no longer current.
  20. SalishSea
    Lots of people are asked to submit additional documents, in particular, the DS-5535 for Canada. No one here can possibly know how long it will take. There is a very long thread here on VJ for Montreal applicants who had to do a DS-5535, if that is what you were asked for.

    Obviously they found something and cannot make a decision without another interview. But: if he needs the passport back before a decision is made, he can ask for it. DOS isn't concerned with his Canadian work visa. His legal status in Canada is entirely his responsibility, and if there is no decision by the time it expires, he would have to leave.
  22. SalishSea
    No one is ever "in the mood" to collect documents for USCIS. But I agree with @OldUser: wait until you have the mental bandwidth to do things properly. It's worth it, after all this process is not cheap or easy. I would either do the work, or wait and naturalize under the 5 year rule, like the Cat suggested.
  23. SalishSea
    I wouldn't fret about this. Typographical/form errors can be easily corrected at the time of the interview.
  24. SalishSea
    I don’t think she can adjust status, since she’s out of status.

    Which border crossing? My husband came in on a K-1 via the Blaine, WA crossing after flying from Auckland to Vancouver. We had no issues at all. The CBP officer processing us had never done a K-1, so he needed a little help from his colleagues, but it was no big deal. We were done and through in < one hour.
