How much longer will she need to finish her work?

Once she enters, her stamped (endorsed) visa will/can serve as her green card for 1 year until she receives physical greencard.

Can she return immediately after entering the country? - Yes And how long can she be away? - If she intends to stay more than 1 year outside, she will need to apply for a re-entry permit before leaving.

While that is true what is also true is the USEM will have the final say depending on the totality of the circumstances. A lot of USEMs have routely requested updated documents (including I864) 'at' the interview. What I will suggest is upload a new I864 after interview has been scheduled. Good luck.

Oh you were going to need a new I-864 regardless of new job or not since your wife has been DQ'd since 2022. The embassy will need a new one based on latest tax filing year. So definitely complete a new one with latest income. Good luck.

Yup, since you've not resided in the US for more than a decade, NVC needs proof you intend to do so before your spouse migrates to the US. Family petitions are for family unification/reunification physically inside the US hence the requirements. Also you must enter the US before or at the same time with wife. Send all the documents you've stated above in previous post to NVC. Add more if have them like Driver's License, voting records, investments, etc.

You mean certificate of naturalization. Congrats.

So is it a situation where he submitted I-751 to remove conditions before he left? Or no?

Op, the fundamental requirement for a K1 petition is to meet (physically, face-to-face) within a 2-year period before applying. No meeting, no K1 approval.

Correct at interview as others have already recommended.

Fix it at the interview; shouldn't be an issue.

Ok, so you filed adjustment of status for your parents by filing two I-130s and two I-485s. And now the I-130s have been approved but you want know if that means USCIS will start looking at I-485s immediately? If so, it's not necessarily so. Processing of I-485s is by field office. You'll have to check your field office processing time here: https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

Can you clarify. You are a USC filing for parents?

Apparently, there was a 5-year plan from 2021 to make all forms electronic, and we all know how that's working out. All their IT budget will be from fees. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/reports/SIGNED-Section-4103-FY2021-Report-9-7-21.pdf

Op, you submitted photo album as evidence which they won't accept. You are better off using MS word for the photos and add descriptions to the photos. However, concentrate on better evidence because photos just by themselves are not strong evidence to satisfy the two year period of having met requirement. Good luck.

Op, I definitely understand where you are coming from. It's 2024 and the govt still dealing with paper paper paper. But to the govt credit they have gradually albeit slowly been converting some forms/applications to digital. I think it will take time and many years to get there. This doesn't apply to K1 but not so long ago NVC was all paper and physical mails. Now NVC is all electronic/digital. USCIS will get there at some point too. In fact for those applications that have both online and paper applications, USCIS has recently deliberately made the paper applications more expensive so to push people to use the online version. I believe the intent is to eventually kill off the paper version once more people go online. And then they can focus on converting more paper forms to online forms. Good luck on your journey.

Op, you can choose 3-year or 5-year rule whichever is convenient for you. But with naturalization, your whole immigration journey is looked into. I think you should have listed only the last 3 years of travel history if applying under 3-year rule. Either ways, can't you just provide the relevant evidence being requested? Lease, bank accounts, driver's license, etc etc

No need to lie about current physical location; you already have plans to return to the US after school so you won't have a domicile issue at NVC/embassy stage when you are ready to move forward with paying the fees at NVC. However, make sure to use a US mailing address in your application.

Don't wait to apply. Submit the I-130 whenever you want (seems you want to now, so go ahead) and let it go through the USCIS adjudication process. Once it reaches the NVC stage, that's when you stall it by not paying the fees (but contact NVC once in a while with a simple message to keep it active). When you are ready to move back to the US then you'll go ahead and pay the relevant NVC fees to get it moving again. Good luck.

I'm with you on this one. Her window open on 02/03 and she submitted on 02/05 which seems fine so it's confusing why she was asked to withdraw. Are you sure she didn't submit on 02/03? Unless the timezone/computer glitch thing is now is even more out of whack which won't make sense. This is a head scratcher.

No need for physical presence test in this situation. Op, you are a US citizen. You child entered the US as LPR. Your child is in your full and legal custody. So therefore your child has acquired US citizenship pursuant of section 320 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA 320), just as you found out. No need to pay immigrant fee. Use your naturalization certificate to apply for child's US passport. Both parents need to be present at submission. Highly recommended you also apply for N600 certificate for the child after receiving passport. Good luck.

This doesn't apply to acquired citizenship upon landing on US soil as LPR in custody of USC parent.

1. Document by itself shouldn't have an impact. Don't worry yourself as it relates to that document. 2. That by itself shouldnt impact. Why was sister deported? 3. Personally, I will add the father 4. Yes 5. Count people at the time of filling. If it's before birth, it's 2. After birth it's 3. If birth happens before actual interview, provide new affidavit of support to beneficiary. Answer questions literally; that simple. I864 does not apply to K1. I134 from you both.

Op. IMO and unfortunately, the very things you've stated are typical (not always but typical) in denying B2 visas. + Fiancée + On top of that pregnant Fiancée + On top of that baby soon + On top of that pending K1. K1 application does not in a slightest prove you'll return to home country. Not even close. The pending K1 itself should(or could) be fine as long as there aren't any schenegans belong B2 denials.
