  1. Not sure what you mean.....You don't "file" those forms at specific offices. They are to be sent to lockboxes and then they get dispatched to service centers or NBC. Makes sense if he is randomly "filing" forms at different offices.
  2. There is no way a 2016 case should still be pending. There must be something up with that.
  3. Well, but…..your spouse made the choice not to join you. No one here needs to be convinced, but it could well look suspect to the officer. And nearly zero financial commingling is a high bar to overcome with such a short marriage and never having lived together. The totality of your circumstances is not favorable.
  4. When you get to the interview stage, you’ll be able to ask for any type of accommodation you need related to being blind. I don’t think it’s relevant to the petition stage. Using a visa service or attorney will not cause extra time for your overall case, but being from Iran is very likely to, especially with only one visit. International relationships are very expensive.
  5. Agree with the others, you’ve got your work cut out for you with that dodgy timeline.
  6. Exactly. The details of a couple’s financial arrangement is not an immigration issue. It only becomes so when the immigrant seeks public benefits.
  7. No!! They cannot enter with the intent to adjust. That is FRAUD.
  8. I don’t think the Utah marriage should be an issue. VN is a high fraud country when it comes to US immigration, and one of the ways to mitigate that is lots of time spent together in person, which you definitely seem to have.
  9. A large deposit for the purpose of appearing to be your wife’s asset will attract scrutiny. personally, I think you should just look for a better qualified joint sponsor.
  10. I assume this is a plan to bring over a relative? You would need to go through your company’s lawyer. Sponsoring foreign workers is not DIY. Just curious why you wouldn’t look for local candidates? Are you aware of the costs to the employer, of sponsoring someone? And what about the logistics of a foreign born vet practicing in your state? You’d also want to look into whether someone could practice remotely (your L visa idea). Even within the US, there are telehealth laws that vary by state, so I would assume they apply to unlicensed foreign providers.
  11. Keep in mind that with the K-1, he won’t be able to work once he arrives, until he receives an EAD. This could take up to one year.
  12. You have no path to stay on this current visit without risking an overstay and a subsequent bar.
  13. No, I am a USC, born and raised in Seattle. I married a kiwi.
  14. Is this newish? I went to Japan some years ago (2008ish), and it wasn't required then.
  15. An easier solution would be to eliminate the option to adjust status from NIV. Want to come to the US, meet someone and marry? Great, but you have to go home afterwards and be petitioned for an immigrant visa. How do they do it in Britain, @Boiler? Aren't there special visas required for foreigners to marry there?
  16. No, this is immigration fraud. You should petition her for an immigrant visa asap. Some time apart is often unavoidable.
  17. I wouldn't count on anything being "approved" until the status is "new card is being produced."
  18. If you're suggesting that he can petition her if he isn't necessarily her biological father, then that would be a no. And with them being unmarried at the time of her birth, and him not being on the birth certificate, DNA would be the only option I can see. The burden of proof of relationship claimed in petitions for alien relatives is 100% on the petitioner.
  19. I would be very surprised if they don't request DNA evidence, especially with the birth certificate not listing him as the father. Sending money abroad is not evidence of a biological relationship.
  20. Really, that is your question? I'd be way more concerned about the communist party issue.
  21. I agree. A moving traffic violation would need to be, but not a parking ticket.
  22. Uh, as evidenced by the incorrect advice OP got from his accountant.....lol Provide just means to dispense. Doesn't mean it is factually correct.
  23. It would be DOS, not USCIS. Nigeria is in its own category in terms of fraud, and it sounds like they are investigating him. Typical fraud for that country is related to fake documents or falsified marital histories and familial relationships.
  24. May want to avoid using accountant as source of US immigration info. Your girlfriend will want to join VJ, and read and research the visa process thoroughly. There can be challenges that are unique to India.
  25. Have you checked the US Embassy for Haiti's website? I may be wrong, but I thought I remember seeing somewhere that Haitians are currently eligible to interview in Santo Domingo.
