  1. How were you planning to sponsor the fiancé? You need to move to the US, establish domicile, get a job etc.
  2. They won’t expedite that form, since it was your error in the first place that made it necessary.
  3. The service center assignments are not related to state of residence. Ours was adjudicated at Nebraska!
  4. It is a generic USCIS message that everyone gets. It just means more waiting. Hang in there!
  5. In other words: anyone who is not a $400/hour immigration lawyer killing time on a free DIY visa website, need not respond. Got it 🤣
  6. You are in administrative processing. There is no timeline for that. Was the extra documentation requested the DS-5535? What country are you from?
  7. Your class of visa will not have a number available to you for >15 years, depending on what country you’re from. There is nothing you need to do until then.
  8. Have you checked the website for the consulate? They have been evacuating diplomatic staff, but it is a volatile situation. If it isn't safe for staff, there will be no interviews.
  9. Most of us here have endured even years apart from our partners. It’s kind of just par for the course when you choose someone from overseas.
  10. Well, but it is a choice to live where you can’t work…
  11. Many, many people are able to learn to adapt to driving on the other side of the road. I drove the length of NZ's north island without a problem. That will not be considered in the totality of your financial situation and the choice you're making to not work.
  12. Only you can determine your own priorities. Waivers are currently taking >one year. One concerning thing - are you really okay with allowing your elderly, retired mother to support you and your wife indefinitely? What is your plan for providing for your own health insurance, and insurance for your wife when/if you are able to bring her here? It doesn't sound to me like you're prepared to support an immigrant in the United States.
  13. Then it is even more perplexing, because how is anyone here going to know the answer to when you knew you wanted to get married?
  14. Oh whoops, I must have misread and didn’t realize that you’d already redone the original Mexican divorce. Yeah, I can’t see how you can satisfy the requirement of showing that you’re both legally able to marry, as your marriage to the UK husband was obviously legal. Which one are you thinking of annulling? If the first marriage, the dates would still be problematic. I think you’ll have to divorce and remarry the same person in order to satisfy USCIS, and then file for a spousal visa. Legal ability to marry and legal (non-bigamist) marriages are non-negotiable.
  15. Again, it doesn’t sound like you qualify, for multiple reasons. But it’s free to ask. Most of us here on VJ have had unavoidable periods of separation from our partners. It’s just the nature of US immigration.
  16. You should have a tax transcript for 2022, because the filing deadline for that was 6 months ago, in April. Best evidence of current income is current payslips or employer letter stating current annual income. If your income is marginal, you may want to consider a joint sponsor, especially for when it comes time to adjust status and the income requirement is higher.
  17. Let me guess, now you’re in a bind because household income is inadequate for sponsorship? Yes, that’s tax evasion, and yes you need to pay taxes on your income like everyone else.
  18. You make it sound like you want to obtain residency there in order to file for DCF, rather than already living there and needing to move back for a legitimate, documented job offer. You’re free to ask the consulate of course, but I think your chances are low.
  19. No, it will actually be the receipt notice after your packet is accepted for processing.
  20. LOL. Dude, there is NO way she will get a new GC before traveling. Have you looked at the processing times? Up to FOUR YEARS. what she will get is a 46- month extension letter, which she can use for travel along with the expired GC. It really is not advisable to use an address other than where you live. USCIS has been known to make unexpected home visits, to verify relationships. I would guess you’d want them to show up where you live together, since that relationship is the entire basis for removing conditions.
  21. To be fair, the option OP chose was the second of two offered.
  22. What a huge mess. This won’t be simple, cheap or fast to fix. May take years. I think you need to re-do the divorce that was done in Mexico. I agree that the USCIS/DOS will not recognize it as legal, as neither of you resides in the jurisdiction of the court that granted it. I have seen this many times before. Then you’ll need to remarry current partner and petition for a spousal visa. Unfortunately, it’s irrelevant of whether the UK recognized that divorce, as US law counts for US immigration.
  23. The answer is no. He doesn’t qualify as follow-to-join and will need to be petitioned by her if he wants to immigrate someday.
  24. You’re asking strangers on the internet to help you fabricate something? SMH…..
