    Northern hemisphere summer, or southern?
  2. SalishSea
    Fare-dodgers.

    Well, it was winter, and it did force me back into my craft room to work on my dollhouses, so in a roundabout way, yes.

    I was banned twice in one month! Am lucky the TOS doesn't apply to private messaging......LOL.

    I think the USCIS.gov published processing time for 129-F is still 16.5 months, so you’re right around that.
  6. SalishSea
    That could be problematic for receiving USCIS mail, even if you reported the address changes. Do you have an online account, and if so what does it say when you log in?
  7. SalishSea
    That would probably only be @Family, the only truly nice one of the lot here 😅

    Or a staycation if one chooses to lurk as guest (I’d never).

    How about “which member has spent the most time in VJ Jail”? 😅
  10. SalishSea
    Only 1099-INT would come from bank.
  11. SalishSea
    Yes, and provide ALL supporting court and police documentation.

    With the many years it will take, you may want to plan to live in the Philippines.

    Are you sure you’ve gotten the whole background story from your wife? The pages and pages of redacted documents makes me think there is more to this than just an unfounded suspicion that she was already married at the K-1 interview.
  14. SalishSea
    I don’t think you understand that your usc child will not need a visa or be added to any application.
  15. SalishSea
    How would you plan to bring a baby across the border then?
  16. SalishSea
    Let us know how it goes.

    This seems like a clerical error. An undeliverable notice of receipt shouldn’t result in a cancelled petition. Do they have your correct current mailing address? This may be one of the times that a call to USCIS could be in order. I would also notify them in writing that you want the petition to remain active.

    I’d make 100% certain that it was a certified copy of the marriage certificate. Our “on the spot” marriage certificate was a commemorative one, similar to the souvenir “birth certificate” the hospital gives you when you have a baby. Suitable for framing, but not a legal document. YMMV.

    That is why Mike posted the link to the reciprocity schedule for NZ documents.
  20. SalishSea
    Different jurisdictions do things differently. You need to research how to go about that for your specific location. I can't imagine a legal document such as a marriage certificate being given out on the spot.
  21. SalishSea
    This is an obvious drawback to waiting until the end of the 90 days to marry. It can take several weeks for the marriage to be recorded and for the certificates to be available. A cursory glance/click shows exactly how to order one.
  22. SalishSea
    Most people try to come over prepared with such documents before immigrating. But did you read the link Mike posted? USCIS has info on which types of documents are acceptable by country. For the marriage certificates, you will need to figure out how to request those from your county/state once you are married. That info will be easily found on the website for your local county government.

    Now I'm thinking perhaps you don't understand the meaning of certified copy? It isn't a process of "certifying" a copy of something already in your possession. It is an official copy of the original document (owned by the county/city/state), certified by the county clerk or registrar, and usually has a raised seal. It is equivalent to an original.
  24. SalishSea
    You should have certified copies of all of these things, regardless. Why do you not have a certified copy of the marriage cert? You'll need several. Most vital records offices charge a couple of bucks per copy.
  25. SalishSea
    I don't think that is what Boiler meant. It is much more likely to take two years than one. There is a long queue for the interview. There is a significant wait time even for CRBA appointments, from what I have heard.
