  1. And yet your history says otherwise. I can't see you getting a visa to the US given your track record.
  2. It is true, there is now a special marriage visa for the UK. Did not used to be the case.
  3. Apples to oranges, comparing B refusals of a non-VWP country to a VWP country.
  4. Problematic to use equity in your primary residence, as you can't both house immigrants and use the value of that house to support them. I wouldn't be surprised if the consulate asks for another joint sponsor. @pushbrk
  5. It isn't recommended to lie when asked about friends/family in the US.....
  6. Then you may have to wait until she completes her education and can afford to bring an immigrant here. Btw, why isn't she the one here asking questions?
  7. That's not how that works. The legally enforceable document is signed by the sponsor and is between the sponsor and the US government. If your GF wants to sponsor you, she will need to find an eligible joint sponsor, or improve her own financial situation.
  8. You did not know your wife's name?
  9. I have no info, other than what has been publicly stated by the incoming president. I suspect nothing will happen there, but stay tuned.
  10. Also, if they do away with birthright citizenship as promised, OP will not be able to get an immigration benefit via the younger child.
  11. It is a very backlogged consulate, so even if there are no true AP type issues, I would imagine it will be some time for them to review the additional info they've received. Good luck.
  12. You are welcome to go back to Pakistan to visit, arent' you?
  13. Warm?
  14. Did you bring the first wife over on an immigrant visa also? There must be some reason why they focused on that during her interview.
  15. She will be in AP. It will likely not be fast. Sounds like you have a number of red flags.
  16. It means exactly what it says. There is no visa number available for you yet. Are you familiar with the Visa Bulletin? If not, best to research and learn about how to read it.
  17. You seem lack information about adoption as it relates to immigration. It's not as simple as that. You need a lawyer and to do some significant research into Hague Convention adoptions. Definitely not possible unless the child is an orphan, and also you would need to move there and live with the child for two years.
  18. Sounds like you have a charlatan lawyer. A change of status (COS) from B to F1 would have been possible if you hadn't overstayed, but not now. Also: an F1 is a non-immigrant visa, which I can't ever see you getting again with an overstay. Why would they take your word for it that you would leave after completing your education? You have violated the terms of one visa, and likely will do it again. Are you really happy to stay here as an illegal immigrant for 20 years? Have you read about what is coming down the pike for undocumented immigrants next year? If it were me, I'd take my child and leave while I still had control over the situation.
  19. I would expect 4-6 weeks from the time the completed application was received by them on 10/29/24.
  20. Not sure what you mean by "restart," but clearly they cannot process incomplete packages. Your processing started once your application was complete.
  21. Normal passport processing is currently 4-6 weeks. You're well within that, since you originally sent an incomplete packet. No, a senator will not help with this.
  22. It comes down to your tolerance for risk, I guess. Living in a border or checkpoint area would be a big reason to do it, in my opinion.
