1. IMHO no. Where you sleep matters and that is my interpretation of the law. 2. Same as number 1 to me. No 3. I believe you would be fine if you apply February 21, because the majority of your days in the previous 3 months would be in your state of residence. Assuming you stay inside your state continuously from Jan 1 to Feb 21. 4. For each trip, the form asks for the date you departed the U.S. and date you returned to the U.S. If you are not in the U.S. on the day you file, I do not understand what day you will enter for the day of return. So, no. At least not without perjury.

The end of DACA may finally be drawing near
Mike E replied to TBoneTX's topic in Current Events and Hot Social Topics
DeShaney v. Winnebago County SCOTUS ruled the government does not have to actually enforce the law. DACA is merely the government formally saying: “we are not going to enforce the law. We are going to let people stay and work illegally.” No different than refusing to enforce the laws around carrying a GC, filling AR-11 and I-865, or forcing U.S. citizens and LPRs to depart the U.S. in possession of a passport and green card, respectively -
I didn’t know immigration lawyers participated on VJ. They are brave. I think some lawyers do not like I-131 because of theoretical risks to the case if the beneficiary uses Advance Parole. And I think others just want to charge more money later.

Going in early for Biometrics
Mike E replied to An&Je's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
IMO, the trick (if it is going to work at all) is to wait in the parking lot until there is a lull in the line. There will likely be a line in the morning before it opens. -
The cost of living difference will more than exceed the “free” health care. Maybe if they lived in the Central Valley there would be some savings.

Her primary purpose for an F-1 student visa would be to date you and then adjust status when F2A for I-485 becomes current again, or you become a U.S. citizen. This is visa fraud. There is no basis for an expedite, and even if their was, approving I-130 faster does not accelerate the F2A visa process. Until there is a visa number available there will ve no visa interview and no visas issued. And no way to expedite a quota green card. Indeed, where there are kids, you want I-130 approval to take length of time equal to the expected time for F2A to become current. Otherwise they can age out. Whereas if they are over age 21 when F2A becomes current, the time it took for I-130 to be approved can be subtracted from their actual age. If that resulting age is less than 21, then they stay F2A. Otherwise they go to F2B, and wait is even longer. I do not see how this is better. * It takes longer for everyone to come to the U.S. * you are delaying the kids U.S. citizenship

Yeah. I do not know OP’s life history. It was OP who stated certs expire, so take it up with Op. But according to DoS, you are incorrect: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html/ Important: Police certificates expire after two years, unless the certificate was issued from your country of previous residence and you have not returned there since the police certificate was issued. Hence my suggestion to wait until approval as I * do not expect it to take 2 years beyond I-130 to have the interview * am attempting to address OP’s desire to optimize. Yes that is what I wrote. My advice was complete and correct, I stand by it, and I am not dissuaded. I’ve contributed all I can, and I don’t wish to argue or bicker, so I won’t post more in this thread.

I believe we arw discussing I-130, correct? The problem, as you noted, is that employer 1 uses numbers 13-16 employer 2 uses numbers 17-20. Logically the additional info section would have employer 3 use numbers 21-24. But numbers 21-24 are alresdy something else. So what i would do in the addition info section is: 3.a - page 2 3.b - part 1 3.c - employer 3 17-20 3.d - everything pertinent for employer 3 that you would have put into 17-20 if you could Did you try the online I-130?
