  1. Let’s try again. Did she interview for an immigration visa or was she already in the USA and she filed I-485?
  2. It hasn’t actually changed. And indeed because it hasn’t actually changed, CBP was forced by the cruise ship industry to adapt to constitutional reality. https://www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/western-hemisphere-travel-initiative U.S. citizens on closed-loop cruises (cruises that begin and end at the same U.S. port) are able to enter the United States with a birth certificate and government-issued photo ID. The cruise ship industry simply would vanish if a US passport or passport card was required. A conversation I had with a friend a couple years ago: Friend: “My husband entered Canada by land with just his U.S. birth certificate and drivers license. Canada didn’t say a thing. He still didn’t believe he could enter the U.S. without a US passport, so he went to the U.S. consulate to get an emergency passport. The CO asked him how he got into Canada. The CO said “then that’s how you will get back to U.S. No passport for you today. Get out of here.’ “ There are enough clues at this point that if in fact OP’s spouse took oath and still had the green card (which I am skeptical of) it is obvious how OP can return to the U.S. without a U.S. passport.
  3. Some lawyers claim a K-2 under age 14 doesn’t attend the K-1 interview. I’ve seen nothing definitive.
  4. If they filed jointly the tax return transcript is the same.
  5. 1. You report every account if the sum total balance across all accounts exceeds $10,000 usd. 2. Income those accounts generate has to be reported.
  6. Traveling between interview and oath wobble a problem unless you violate physical presence requirements.
  7. I don’t know for sure what your FO is since your timeline is out of date. If Chicago, https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/citlist.php?op6=All&op7=Chicago+IL&op1=8&op2=&op4=1&op5=5%2C10%2C11&cfl= same day oath doesn’t seem to be a thing.
  8. Attend the appointment. Decline same day oath. Inform ISO of your travel plans. Don’t miss the second oath appointment. You only get two chances.
  9. So two guys holding a hammer stroll toward the door, one pulls on the door. As the door’s momentum swings it open they stroll backward. The way the door swung, there is no way Pelosi started the momentum of the door swing given his right hand was on the hammer. Especially he had a drink in the other. It is possible DePape pulled the door to make it swing. Seems more likely a third person opened the door as was originally reported.
  10. 1. So what country has employers with that understanding and pay so well? 2. If she has residence permit at a third country, knowing that might cause the folks responding to you to adjust their impressions. 3. knowing what she does for living is useful to. I’ve a bit more in the tank It seems she works 2 months a year. Does she keep an apartment when she gone most of the year? On the 6 month authorized stay, visitors should think of that as rope. USA gives visitors rope and other countries block the stairs to the gallows.
  11. See below. If you are you are permitted to withdraw your application to enter the USA, no problem. If you are given an expedited removal, then that seems like a problem. My comment questions the entire premise of this thread. So far no one has addressed it.
  12. you wrote: So she has spent 4 of the past 5 months USA and wants to come back now. To CBP that’s living in the USA. 1. When she had her visa interview, what duration of stay did she tell the CO? 2. Similarly at the port of entry what duration of stay did she she tell the CBPO? Not relevant to CBP 39 states plus DC, Puerto Rico, American Samoa. It’s mostly monotonous and repetitive. I’d much prefer to spend 30 days in Indonesia than Indiana or for that matter Hawaii. I believe you. Under U.S. law she is presumed to have immigration intent until she can convince CBP otherwise. 3. CBP is going to wonder how is she able to spend 8 months out of 9 in the USA without working? That was the point I raised in my first comment on this thread and you didn’t address it.
  13. Data says CR-1 is nearly 3 months faster https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/stats.php?history=90 : 567 days to interview (and trending worse) https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/irstats.php?history=90 483 days to interview (and trending better).
