Thank you. I never understand the Jim Hacking worship on this website.

I doubt the buyers care.

Apparently Trump sold all the NFTs he had for sale: $4M in one day. If so, rumors of his drop in popularity appear to be exaggerated.

There is no difference that I can see.

yes. A couple years. No.

Fire the lawyer. No need to over stay. File I-485 at the same time. This grants authorized presence. https://www.visajourney.com/guides/i130-spouse-inside-usa/ And it won’t be the last. I wish they would be disbarred

The sequence of events was they were denied boarding in the U.S. at the airport because she didn't have her green card. And then after rescheduling their flight, they canceled their flight because of what the employees told her: Because USCIS promised. https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-extends-evidence-of-status-for-conditional-permanent-residents-to-24-months-with-pending-form Clearly not. But people have reported getting a 24 month letter after getting an 18 month letter:

No.

She should have received a 24 month extension letter by now. Clearly they aren't very good at being immigrants. Unless they showed you their green cards, I don't believe they are immigrants. Name and shame the airline please. You were lied to. You were lied to. This is CBP's word on this topic: https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2021-Dec/Reminder- LPR Boarding 20210305.pdf : In that thread, both the green card and extension letter were expired. Does not apply. Allowing under educated airliner workers to run your life isn't a good life strategy, IMHO. LPRs can only be deported after a judge revokes status. LPR status is for life and only an immigration judge can revoke it. You should have a 24 month letter. Can't done if your airline refuses to follow CBP regulations. Find a new airline. Avoid Delta, Spirit, and Turkish Airlines that have allowed my wife to travel with a 24 month extension letter: * Jet Blue * American Airlines * United Airlines

Without the adoptee having LPR status? Was she an LPR at the time? Interesting

Episode 6 of Netflix series Immigration Nation is titled “Prevention Through Deterrence”. This episode features includes an interview of a medical examiner who maintains a map of southern Arizona that shows thousands of red dots. Each dot representing the corpse of an illegal migrant. The whole country is a slaughter house and the 4 border states are the Killing Fields.

options: 1. Fly now to USA. 2. fly after Dec 23 to Canada or Mexico, walk into USA, and plan to pay I-193 fee 3. File I-131a.

This is a strange one. Indeed when one adopts, the child gets a new birth certificate. My first wife was a U.S. citizen born in the U.S. and was adopted as an infant. There was nothing on her birth certificate that indicated she was adopted If these kids get U.S. birth certificates after being adopted, I suspect when an attempt is made to get them passports, the state department will push back on the late registration of the birth certificates This seems to be process: https://www.uscis.gov/adoption/immigration-through-adoption/family-based-petition-process I would get legal advice before trying to bypass I-485 / I-130.

The electorate voted for this last month. Nothing to do.

When an ISO tells you in a meeting you've been approved, the best way to test that is to slide your passport across the table and say: "thanks, please put an I-551 stamp in here". Did you leave the interview with any paperwork from the ISO? 1. USCIS Ombusdman 2. Federal represenative or federal senator 3. Writ of Mandamus

This is a family website. 😇

That shouldn’t be your only worry. You are not spending enough time in USA to retain your green card. You need to be spending more days in U.S. than outside. You need to be spending at least 366/2 + 1 = 184 days And 180 days isn’t enough. Inevitably, a CBP officer is going to do some math and give you a warning. If you then leave the USA without correcting the ratio, you run risk of a notice to appear on your next return. Yes. See: https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/793074-n-400-notice-of-continuance-how-to-prove-immediate-family-remained-in-the-us/ In the above, the applicant for citizenship averaged over 205 days per year in the U.S., and that still wasn’t enough to naturalize without providing additional evidence. Regardless, to naturalize you need to be spending the majority of your time in the USA in the 5 years prior to filing N-400, to the actual interview, and to the oath. Assuming a 5 year period with just one leap year, you need: (4 * 365 + 366) / 2 = 913 days of physical presence. Instead you are tending to 5 * 150 = 750 days. You are coming up way short and I’ve never heard of this being waived in your situation. At the very least you should file I-131 the next time you are in USA to get a Re-entry permit. This will protect you from a finding of an abandonment of LPR status. You don’t have to wait for permit to arrive before you depart. The act of applying for one provides evidence in your favor in the event CBP declares you have abandoned status. This will give you some breathing time while you decide what to do about your LPR status vs your job.

Follow the process in https://www.visajourney.com/guides/i130-spouse-inside-usa/ That process makes your questions not relevant and will save you money and hassle.

Possibly.

I’ve no opinion on this alleged scandal. I just wanted to point out a stark difference between EU and U.S. politics. FTA, the Vice President of the EU Parliament: The U.S. has a president protem who presides over the Senate when the vpotus is not in congress: And yes that difference is the bad apple from Europe has nicer hair than the ripe pear from the U.S.

If permission is granted you will file a new DS-160

You likely spine to a tier 1 officer on the phone. They usually know nothing. At least by our tier 1 officer didn’t under achieve Call USCIS again, say info pass and request a tier 2 officer call you.

Yes follow the instructions

Please update your visa journey timeline. Has I-485 been filed?

Because by failing to bring the original documents to the first interview, more scrutiny was brought to the case. The same pair or a different pair of eyes, when processing the RFE, saw something that wasn’t seen before. If I had a dollar each time I’ve read about a CO or ISO say verbally “your case is approved” or “case is approved after you do this”, and then it turns out that was not true, I’d have enough cash to drink grande cappuccinos from Starbucks all week. Nothing is approved until you walk out with a visa stamped.
