1. 125 percent of current poverty limit for a single person household is about $1500/month. If that’s too much money to pay, one cannot afford to file I-130. Any beneficiary that tries to subsist on $1500 a month is not going to survive in this country. She will need to go to work. Each gross dollar of her non I-864 income knocks a dollar off the contracted I-864 support. 2. If the I-864 issue is brought up by in divorce court, the feds have ruled that they have no jurisdiction to order financial support beyond that ordered by state court: https://www.supremecourt.ohio.gov/rod/docs/pdf/6/2012/2012-ohio-2088.pdf To summarize the above: 1. Petitioner got ahead of the issue in divorce court and noted the I-864 that the petitioner signed. 2. Petitioner made the argument that because the married couple had a combined 40 SS credits during the marriage, the I-864 contract ended. 3. State courts ultimately upheld that argument. 4. Beneficiary did not like it, so tried to do an end run through federal court. 5. Federal court said heck no: the federal court has no jurisdiction on divorce cases. I’m curiously how many contributors to this thread have been divorced.

nope https://selfhelp.courts.ca.gov/spousal-support/longterm “For marriages less than ten years, support will last half the length of the marriage”

Looks like it is asking for Priority Date and not Temp Priority Date.

answer is yes maybe. Does it matter? Afaict: The paper form just asks for the SSN if any. So if filing by paper, leave response blank, and include a note in Part 9 stating beneficiary does not recall if an SSN was issued or not.

What is your bsckground?

You have jointly filed I-751. The moment you file for divorce you should immediately write a letter to the uscis address listed on her 48 month extension letter. Your letter should say that as the U.S. citizen co-petitioner, you are withdrawing your petition due to the pending divorce filing. Reference her A number, and the I-751 case number in the letter. Include a copy of the 48 month extension letter and the divorce filing. If she fails to (on her own) to request to amend her pending joint I-751 petition to a divorce waiver, then things could potentially go badly for her, including revocation of LPR status and deportation. That is her problem. If you fail to write the suggested letter, then arguably you are complicit in any accusation of fraud if the I-751 is approved without USCIS being notified about the divorce filing. Fun facts: * if she does amend I-751 to a divorce waiver she has 60 days to provide a final divorce decree * California divorces require a minimum of 6 months to get a final decree. So even if you filed March 20, 2023 and the court issued a divorce decree April 20, your divorce is not final until September 20, 2023 Thus there is high risk of her I-751 being denied, and ultimately losing her LPR status. She will potentially require an immigration lawyer. You have no authority to make that happen. As described above, you can take steps to make it harder for her to retain her LPR status.

yes For a such short marriageI do not see the duration of alimony exceeding 24 months

1. You have a previous post saying your I-751 was pending. Was it ever approved? 2. Are you still married to the person who filed your I-130?

“I’m the only Irishman you’ve ever met though that’s never had a drink,” so that he wasn’t “really Irish.”” And instead he appears to be in state of chronic inebriation due to dementia.

Yes to waiting for the card. Make a complete electronic copy of photo, signature, immigration visa, and immigration visa stamp. A green card is an I-551. Her stamped visa is a temporary I-551 good for one year from day of entry. She can do everything with her temporary I-551 that she could do with an actual green card with few exceptions such as use the Ready lanes at CBP land ports of entry. If she entered the U.S. less than 2 years after she married you, you will have to file I-751 2 years after she entered the US. So start gathering evidence of bonafide marriage. Get her an SSN. Then use that to open a joint bank account. Then auto pay all house hold bills out of this account. Get her a state ID or DL: Add her name to as many household accounts (utilities, warehouse club, auto club, auto insurance) as possible. Even if you were married for more 2 or more years, to naturalize under the 3 year rule, she still needs evidence of bonafide marriage. Lots to do to keep you busy for the next 11 months. You would be wasting your money and without an accompanying I-130 it would be denied. With an accompanying I-130 I’d say 50/50 it would be denied because she already is a valid lawful permanent resident. It would not get adjudicated for 2 years. It would be a greater waste of money. That little hunk of plastic is a hassle for some to carry around and safeguard. It is a blessing in a way to not be burdened with it. With the new mailed ADIT process, she will always have evidence of LPR status and she will not have the nightmare that millions of LPRs went through since the start of covid.

If the green card does not show up in 11 months, file I-90 and then request an ADIT stamp https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-announces-additional-mail-delivery-process-for-receiving-adit-stamp Meanwhile her stamped visa works like a temporary gc

Yeah well bug eating isn't part of my culture. Yet. Reminds of the claims: * the naked body scanner is optional * no one will forced to vaccinate * no kid will be forced to under go gender re-assignment surgery

When you imply there is no difference between eating shrimp and bugs, I infer if I am for example in the last row of long haul and all that’s left is grass salad, that’s going to ok. Well it should not be ok. If a different flight originating from or arriving at a Middle East or north African airport even served pork, there would be an uproar. Ditto a flight involving an Indian airport that served beef. But me, I have to up with being offered bugs because WEF et al says so.

“The government aims to cut nitrogen emissions” The air is 80 percent nitrogen. There is nothing the world, let alone a minor country, can do to move that needle up or down.

If you have their foreign passports containing their original stamped immigration visa, their passports with an ADIT stamp, or I-94 with an ADIT, you can submit those instead of GCs If their passport applications are approved, generally the passport agency will not return their GCs.

I can remove the indigestible outer chitin layer of a shrimp before eating it. And as shrimp mostly swim in saltwater the chitin is less likely to carry toxic microbes. Never heard of sushi restaurants serving up raw crickets. Of course if you google for it, you will find that sure enough there are chefs serving insect sushi. But being a thing doesn't make it a main stream thing. It is a puzzle to me why I am expected to embrace food I consider to be trash, while billions are not expected to embrace my food preferences: pork, beef, crustaceans, shell fish, booze. I am really getting tired of forced accommodation. Insects = poison. Not happening:. WEF, UN, EU, Ds, public schools, and whomever else are shoving this agenda can all go pound sand while I grill a steak on my gas grill.

Book tickets in your passport name. Bring your marriage certificate.

To answer the question, yes, so far because it expanded the voting base to a class that was both * economically under privileged * believed that the correct way to deal with economic inequality was through forced redistribution of wealth and income In time, as we look at trends in college enrollment, especially in law and medicine, the male voter base will be clamoring for redistribution of wealth. But men are in the minority, so in the long run we should see a meritocracy re-emerge.

OP works in software, not a minimum wage job. In a 30+ year career as a computer programmer, never had an employer that permitted moonlighting. Has nothing to do with judgement and everything to with good career advice. OP wants to hide the moonlighting from the primary employer. That should be clue that there is an issue.

Darn it. I was sure this wasn't going to be the Bee. Mix it up pls. More fun that way.

Yours is definitely an outlier and I presume your documents are now lost: * the state department lost them * usps lost them (they are sent first class mail) * usps delivered to a wrong address

Prenup early and often I say. And did. Relevant: https://www.supremecourt.ohio.gov/rod/docs/pdf/6/2012/2012-ohio-2088.pdf

so you have 3 last names: * passport name * maiden name * green card / spouse name ? depends on the answer to my question

I’ve nought cars in 4 states and always needed a state drivers license. The answer appears to be no: https://oklahoma.gov/service/all-pages/required-documents.html https://oklahoma.gov/service/sokonline/online-real-id-checklist.html Depends on the bank. Online, probably not. Bricks and mortar: varies. Wells Fargo will ime. yes no Yes. However there is less friction if you have an SSN. 2 working days after you arrive in the U.S. you need to apply for an SSN. And you need to do it before you are married (sone have had luck applying after getting married) .

And a 10 year green card 4 years after that 🎤
