    Option 3.

    Dual, not duel - may want to fix the poll.

    Who's older here by 27 years? How old is the fiancee? Also, with your history and length of time - spousal visa would be a much better choice.

    Proceeds as normal until at/after visa interview. Then you get refusal for as long as the ban is in effect. I wouldn't be going for medical as long as ban in place - that would be a waste of money.

    I hope your husband has a good health insurance and will be able to cover you upon arrival. But even in regular cases, dental insurance is separate from health insurance and will cost $$$. These days when they're looking more closely at all types of applicants (health, potential for earning and not relying on government assistance) - careful how you present yourself at interview.

    What job does she have now and can she find something similar in the US in the near future? Then you'd just need a letter from employer to qualify for DCF at the US Embassy Sarajevo. You can even do online zoom marriage if you want the US marriage certificate, otherwise get married in Bosnia - blue form aka international marriage certificate is what you need. If you can swing getting married before end of this year, you can figure out taxes as married - a CPA can advise. And hopefully she's been doing taxes in the US - all US citizens need to do it. I would never in my life do a K-1 visa, spousal only as more protection and can work from day one after entry.

    You want to escalate that with USCIS.
  8. milimelo
    She should raise that at PoE AND you should put the new address when you're paying for her green card issuance.

    Nice catch - yes. looks like OP already filed and didn't think things through.

    Wait, you actually petitioned I-130s under these conditions? This is not going to end well - regardless of what administration is in office currently.

    So is this based off of congressmen/senators having dual citizenship in which case, make it so whoever wants to run for public service needs to relinquish any other citizenship(s) X years before being eligible to run for an office. Or is this based off of Americans leaving US and living overseas (retirees, expats, students, and similar) - still paying taxes even when not in the country, or is there a third reason? Germany used to have something like this but even they made exceptions to loss of citizenship when their folks would naturalize for example in the US.

    Your best bet will of course be getting married ASAP and your spouse adding you to their insurance policy - marriage is a qualifying life event. I'm not sure what other insurance you'd qualify for as you're not really a tourist given that on K-1 you're expected to AOS and become an LPR. I know our company when sending folks to the US for training gets them seven corners health insurance policy - may want to check if they cover K-1?

    I wouldn't be surprised if there was an extra long admin processing for all types of visas for this country now.
  14. milimelo
    OP, I think you're getting swindled. Plenty of US citizens or LPRs in the US for the receptionist and sandwich maker positions. Cut your losses now and don't pay whoever this middle man agency is. That is not how either USCIS or visa issuance works.

    Are you not familiar with uscis.gov? If not, time to get very familiar because it has fee calculator and the list of filing fees - https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-fees

    They're no longer doing interview waivers. Expect your father to have to go in for an interview.
  17. milimelo
    Umm if she's in ROC stage, she'll be fine. ~Moving to removing conditions forum, OP's case is well past AOS.~
  18. milimelo
    From what you listed DV, assault and similar - stay away - not worth it your life to end up dead for a visa. Find someone else. I'm sure not just consulate but also the CFO process will flag your petitioner.

    30 cases in 24 years? Did he do time? I wouldn't be considering K-1 under these circumstances.
  20. milimelo
    When we did DCF close to 20 years ago, both of us went to the embassy - petitioner and beneficiary.

    Not PI related, but affects everyone overseas who has a bank account - FATCA reporting on yearly basis - I believe accounts with more than $50k in them. In a lot of cases, they won't easily open a local bank account for a USC given all the reporting requirements. There's also FBAR reporting. https://www.irs.gov/businesses/corporations/summary-of-fatca-reporting-for-us-taxpayers
  22. milimelo
    You won't qualify for DCF as you have already filed I-130. Best option would be to ask USCIS for expedite - in the meantime, hold spouse and child's cases at NVC until daughter's case makes it there.
  23. milimelo
    Yeah that address where his ex wife still resides - that's a problem. She better find a different residence before you move there. He should figure this out well ahead of your interview time.
  24. milimelo
    This would've been one case the K-1 would've been advantageous but you're past that now.
  25. milimelo
    She was a young teenager then so CSPA wasn't a consideration. But yes, normally you do want it to take as long as possible if there are derivatives involved.
