I do not doubt the former. I do doubt the latter. http://theconsulsfiles.blogspot.com/2016/09/ali-is-still-in-business.html?m=1 “ Here is Ali, at work on a third-country visa application for some lucky customer. One might notice that Ali was able to provide the blank form. He can also provide forms and fill in very convincing data for property deeds, automobile titles, bank statements, birth certificates, grade reports, school certificates, and census registers.” https://theconsulsfiles.blogspot.com/2011/?m=1 “The NIV chief had a problem. Her officers were […] unconvinced by their chief's assurances that these customers […] evidence could be fabricated. "Do this," she told the officers. "If you intend to refuse an applicant for any reason […] tell him in exactly these words, 'I'm sorry but you don't qualify for a US visa. After all, you've never traveled out of your own country before. You've never even been to France.'" “In less than a month, every single NIV applicant's passport showed a week's recent travel to France: a visa, and Charles de Gaulle airport arrival and departure stamps” Ali is everywhere

Report to ICE https://old.reddit.com/r/immigration/comments/101ff5h/fraud_marriage_do_your_thing_but_dont_do_this/j2n5hcm/ Few other types cases gave me the satisfaction that putting away a marriage scammer has. The emotional toll on the conned partner was intense. Most people don’t even realize it’s a crime and we surely prosecute it

Good point. HKG’s and FRA’s transit zone is designed for this. BKK’s not really, but I have had good luck talking my way through without a BP. KUL is really easy too, as long as you don’t have to go between international terminals.

False choice. I wrote before: ”OP should also file a separate I-130 for this 16 year old sibling as an insurance policy.” There should be 3 I-130s for child The first one to get to NVC wins.

I am not able to answer CRA questions.

There are still lawyers and COs who think waiting 90 days cures immigration intent when entering on a nonimmigrant visa.

Yes that was what you said in a previous thread. But now you are considering I-485. That is likely best. But if the purpose of I-20 was to further your relationship with your future spouse, that too can be a problem.

I have seen at least one case posted on VJ where it went all the way to N-400 before the immigration journey ended.

IME no visa and instead cursory q and a by the U.S. immigration officer at the pre-clearance airport ”I am entering as an I-20 student” The problem is that it is difficult to rebut an accusation of immigration intent given the history

Did you know this American before you applied for an I-20? Edit: see

Each files I-864 2 Enter 1 in for persons being sponsored Leave currently married as blank Numbers 1-7 will add up to 2 On the asset stuff change total to 45,000. Leave rest blank yes No Yes If principal immigrant does not live at the mailing address, enter the name of any adult resident who lives there. Otherwise leave blank

Yes.

Your spouse does not need your total. However if you are going to file a MFS tax return with the IRS, your spouse needs to know if you will itemize tax deductions or take the standard deduction.

And with it you can get an SSN sooner

You will not need their DCs. The point of a MC of the parents is that it is evidence that you are a sibling of your brother. The reciprocity link I gave discusses alternatives, if any, to MC. Worse case, USCIS and/or the U.S. embassy will require DNA testing.

try https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/Intro.do select “did not receive document by mail”

I-130, your birth certificate (BC), his BC, his marriage certificate (MC), his wife’s BC, your parents’ MC, BCs of his children. Also if your brother or his wife have been married before, the divorce decrees (DD) or death certificates (DC) of former spouses https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Pakistan.html for specific requirements on BC MC, DD, DC

99.99 percent chance it was 48 month extension letter

Does the image show a statue of liberty?

And that he be under 21 when I-130 is filed. OP should become a student of CSPA and the visa bulletin. OP should also file a separate I-130 for this 16 year old sibling as an insurance policy.

Airlines can ban passengers that make a habit of this

From I-864 instructions Item Number 6. Type or print the number of lawful permanent residents whom you are currently obligated to support based on your previous submission of Form I-864 as a petitioning, substitute, or joint sponsor, or Form I-864EZ, Affidavit of Support Under Section 213A of the INA, as a petitioning sponsor. Include only those persons who have already immigrated to the United States. Do not include anyone for whom your obligation to support has ended through the sponsored immigrant’s acquisition of U.S. citizenship, death, abandonment of lawful permanent residence in the United States, acquisition of 40 quarters of earned or credited work in the United States, or obtaining a new grant of adjustment of status while in removal proceedings based on a new affidavit of support, if one is required.

Yes.

Do you know his SSN?

Yes it is. What is likely going to happen is that when she gets a green card, if her sole name is say Aisha, the green will have: First name: FNU Surname: Aisha If she is not OK with that, then she has 20+ years to do something about it.
