  1. Are you trying to file I-360 to get a green card as a USC's widow?
  2. What do you need a lawyer for? If it's just for getting 10 yr card and getting it fixed by I-90 and filing I-751 - you don't need a lawyer.
  3. I'd look at the DS-160 those have your ever questions... Sounds like repeat disregard for US laws - that can trip you up.
  4. ~Topic moved to work visas.~
  5. Moved to Africa regional forum as post not in English.
  6. Given that it will be a minimum of 18-24 months before interview is even scheduled - I'd get started on that I-130 and think about sponsorship when your case is actually in NVC...
  7. A pdf scan of the marriage certificate is enough to file I-130 (among other things), keep the original for interview time when they ask for it.
  8. So many questions. What's friend's country of origin? How did he get to the US? Sounds like he came on some sort of visa - which one? Where did he meet his USC spouse? Is the USC spouse from the same country originally? How did they meet? Was the friend married previously? When did he get married to USC? When did he divorce his origin country spouse? BTW, it hasn't been INS since 2001...
  9. Why don't you get in touch with the cbp deferred inspection office closest to you to see if they're missing something? https://www.cbp.gov/about/contact/ports/deferred-inspection-sites
  10. Hopefully she was being tested throughout the year so she can go to the 1 year medical exam and pass and then medical office will inform the embassy and reschedule her interview. That seems to be the standard procedure when someone is denied based on using drugs.
  11. Actually, moral objection is one of the options for vaccine waiver. Besides, what falls under religion under freedom of religion also has the option of not following any religion at all. https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-9-part-d-chapter-3
  12. I wouldn't do binders as you have to hand in the documents as they ask for them - through a slot that most certainly does not fit a binder. Keep it loose leaf but organized (paper clips?) so you can give them what they ask for. Perhaps a small photo album (soft covers) would fit through the slot.
  13. Wasn't there a thread couple days ago about a USC woman who brought a Pakistani husband in and he took off after getting his 10-yr green card. I'd read that before deciding to proceed with this guy. Plenty of red flags already flying - refused visas, wants to get married fast...
  14. Give someone in CT (a lawyer, paralegal) power of attorney to go to the court and get it for you?
  15. There is NO option for someone who's being petitioned by a green card holder to hang around the US while the process is underway which will be several years. Reminder that overstay is NOT forgiven for family members of green card holders.
  16. Yes, up to you when you want to pay it. Your immigrant visa turns into temporary green card good for a year after you activate it at POE. To get the real plastic one, you pay the fee - takes them about 90 days to produce and mail you the card.
  17. There's a fee to get the actual green card issued. Once you get your immigrant visa in the passport, you go online and pay for it on uscis.gov (either before or after entry into US).
  18. Just make sure once you have your divorcee decree to check for any cool off period in your state before getting married again.
  19. The timeline is a bit confusing - why was his first I-130 denied and were both I-485s also denied? If so, you'll also have an uphill battle as there very well may be something not disclosed. It's often the person is still married in their home country and that information surfaces at some point making subsequent marriages null and void.
  20. They're not going to accept DCF when you have I-130 pending. Try the expedite or wait it out.
  21. Even if your new citizenship allows for ESTA/VWP, as you have overstayed (regardless of citizenship), you'll still have to get a B1/B2 visa. Actions have consequences.
  22. I doubt anyone would be calling you (from the UK included) when you're still waiting for interview letter.
  23. That's insane. If he wants vaccine, your local department of health will give them for low cost or free for most. Edited to add - just get the paperwork of what he's received to satisfy the civil surgeon requirement.
  24. Go get some mail sent in your name to the current address - you'll need it. Postcard from a friend, catalog, open a bank account and have them send you letter (or credit card offers), sign up for library card....
