No really. I consider it the norm I doubt an extension letter printed on a home laser printer is valid for boarding a flight.

You need to return within 2 years of when you left the USA. Unknown but I would return within 2 years of your departure regardless. It is what you asked for and so intent matters when CBP evaluates your return. When you filed I-131 you intended to be gone for no more than 2 years less a day. Thus based on that intent, if you return before 2 years, CBP has no basis to determine you abandoned status and even it it does, a judge has no basis to agree with CBP.

It happens. However, if you don’t prepare a a combo interview and it turns out to be a combo interview then you will delay your immigration journey. So at minimum your spouse should be close by and summonable

I believe a professional appraisal is required. By now you should have turned this over to an immigration attorney.

Trump did say climate change is a hoax from China

This is an acceptable use https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/BusinessVisa Purpose Listings March 2014 flier.pdf “Lecturer or speaker” “No salary or income from a U.S. based company/entity, other than expenses incidental to the visit. If honorarium will be received, activities can last no longer than nine days at any single institution or organization; payment must be offered by an institution or organization described in INA 212(g); honorarium is for services conducted for the benefit of the institution or entity; and visa applicant will not have accepted such payment or expenses from more than five institutions or organizations over the last six months.” Also https://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/BusinessVisa.pdf

Dad and sis each file I-130 for you. You leave to wait out your 10 year ban. At the end of which your visa number based on your dad’s petition should be current. Become a student of the visa bulletin https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2023/visa-bulletin-for-december-2022.html As you see, unless you are from the Philippines, it is better if your Dad doesn’t become a U.S. citizen. If your Dad becomes a citizen, he must notify USCIS. If you remarry, your Dad has to file a new I-130. At that point your visa number based on your sister’s petition will might come through first.

Your content is impeccable

You will need lawful change of name document(s). i would submit the sponsor’s marriage certificate and divorce decree. You might be able to get away with just the divorce decree or just the marriage certificate. I think the former is more likely to succeed.

It’s coming to Canada too.

Here are the entire questions: 1. Indicate your total number of children. (You must indicate ALL children, including: children who are alive, missing, or deceased; children born in the United States or in other countries; children under 18 years of age or older; children who are currently married or unmarried; children living with you or elsewhere; current stepchildren; legally adopted children; and children born when you were not married.) 2. Provide the following information about all your children (sons and daughters) listed in Item Number 1., regardless of age. Your husband’s child is your stepchild

Tax transcripts are evidence the LPR maintained continuous residency If filing under the 3 year rule joint tax transcripts are evidence the LPR maintained continuous marital union with a U.S. citizen LPRs should file tax returns each year even if the IRS doesn’t require it. USCIS requires it.

Sometimes tax transcripts are not requested. You are fortunate I was an LPR for over 30 years and I had to provide tax transcripts to naturalize. I’m surprised you attempted without them.

Your timeline is here on visa journey that narrows you down. Your sister in law has a pending B-2 application as a married woman with no children. You keep saying “we applied for her visa”. You are facilitating this fraud. She has daughters. She didn’t mention them in her application. This is material misrepresentation Get yourself a criminal defense attorney. I’m out.

None of the above. You are at least an accessory to U.S. federal felony. What you should do is stay out if it, or you should line up a criminal defense attorney. Advise all your relatives to withdraw their visa applications. You think no one from the federal government reeds these posts? You think they can’t figure out who parties are?

I can’t even follow what is going on. Sounds like immigration fraud / material misrepresentation to me. Thus … Until the birth certificates are corrected my advice for all concerned parties is to stay away from the situation or be prepared to be arrested and convicted for felony perjury. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. There is no dilemma here.

You can ask the embassy. Worse case non enters on her immigration visa, files I-131 for a re-entry permit, waits on biometrics, and then goes back to be with Dad while this unnecessary ordeal continues.

I would show one statement from each joint account for each quarter during the 3 year period of marital union and one statement for each of the past three months to show evidence of 3 month residency in your state Also I don’t know about your bank but my bank has online PDF statements. Nothing to print / scan. The PDFs just get downloaded to your desktop computer and uploaded to USCIS.

Yes if that is what your lawyer tells you to do. yes. Your mom’s is done.

In fairness to NVC, I think that was a mistake. You’ve 3 years of extraordinary taxable income. Showcasing it, especially because it isn’t W-2 income, might have avoided the RFE.

$35K W-2 income has a high chance of producing a denial. Clearly * you should be doing an asset based I-864. I would love to see a CO argue that you cannot afford to redeem assets to support your father. * with a net worth north of $5M, no need to do DIY. Your next I-864 should be written by a skilled immigration attorney. You are dealing with a bureaucrat with a sub 100 IQ. Why suffer this fool when you can afford to hire someone to deal with this fool? * getting a joint sponsor does not make any sense. Is the CO going to argue that people worth $5M and $200K annual income need to get joint sponsors worth $50M / $2M annual income? That’s what I would do.

A job offer

Who?

1. Two different people looking at the same data. Visa and Immigration officers mostly understand W-2 income. 2. The first RFE (wanting a joint sponsor) is because of the second (NVC claims you don’t have the income). How I would proceed depends on … * Are the rental properties in the USA? * is the 189K taxable income or was rental income reduced by deductions? * Do you have USA-based liquid assets that can be used in lieu of income? I would expect so given the income level and based on your post history this is just your income and not your spouse’s, * Do your past 3 years of tax transcripts show 189K income? * Unless your close friend’s income can qualify based on W-2 income that’s just as likely to run into similar problems.
