Is the beneficiary in the U.S. today?

No. Generally that is a waste of time. If by December 1, 2023 their I-130s are not approved, file WoM. Yes and also unacceptable. Hence WoM

Congrats. Beyond a certain age, people with no ties to the U.S. are considered by DoS to be safe risks. I hope she enjoys the trip.

If your green card was granted on the basis of a U.S. citizen spouse filing I-130 for you, then the form to get a 10 year GC is I-751.

For F1 RoW, PDs of 01JAN15 or earlier are being taken up by consulates, assuming a visa number is actually available. It will be several years before an interview is scheduled.

You would be able to read first 1 percent or less to get the gist of it. 1. How many times has he visited the U.S. before? Since when? How many days total? 2. How many times has he visited since knowing you? Since when? How many days total? Until he has a K-1 in hand, when he arrives at a U.S. port of entry, he is making a formal application to enter U.S. under the visa waiver program. When CBP decides he will not enter, sometimes it lets the traveler voluntarily withdraw that application. Out of kindness When they conclude that his intent does not match the lawful use of a visa waiver.

1. Yes. IMO most FOs are under 6 months. Use VJ’s timeline search to see how fast your FO is. A GC renewal will be 2 years most likely 2. Under 30 days for my wife 3. None to offer as we were well prepared due to VJ

I see nothing unique in your situation that has not been covered in the sticky 1. The more times he goes to the well, and more he drinks each time, the more likely the well will go dry 2. He has weak ties to the UK 3. If asked to withdraw his application to enter the U.S., he should not attempt to enter for some time. If he is given an expedited removal, it is a 5 year ban. Between the two extremes, his ESTA could be canceled. Using a pre-clearance port will avoid expedited removal.

https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/710314-k2-follow-to-join/ How long ago did the K-1 enter the U.S? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/family-immigration/nonimmigrant-visa-for-a-fiance-k-1.html Separate petitions are not required if the children accompany or follow to join you within one year from the date of issuance of your K-1 visa. If they want to travel later than one year from the date your K-1 visa was issued, they will not be eligible to receive K-2 visas, and separate immigrant visa petitions will be required https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/family-immigration/nonimmigrant-visa-for-a-fiance-k-1.html If your child has a valid K-2 visa and you have already adjusted status to that of permanent resident, your child may still travel on the K-2 visa. While they might still enter as K-2s, for their safety it is better to do as @Verrou advises. As their step parent, you file I-130 before they reach age 21. After two years of marriage submit all required documents to NVC. They will then get IR-2 visas.

Huh? Never heard of this rule; please provide a link. If it exists, it was never applied to me.

no She waits 5 years unless she marries a U.S. citizen

If you will ever petition a relative for an immigration benefit or of there is any possibility of a child or grand child deriving U.S. citizenship through you, then you will need those records.

IMHO, Oath schedule is imminent

It is a testament to the Founders that try as they might, modern progressive politicians are unable to totally derail that which Jefferson et al wrought. Whereas, as brilliant as Deng Xioaping was, nothing he did was cast in similar stone. ”To get rich is glorious!” So sad that Deng’s vision has been destroyed. God bless America and God bless President Trump.

GC was issued between 1980-1985 and these do not expire.

This also varies by states. Individual states will negotiate reciprocity agreements with other countries and states / provinces within each country. I consider it a statistical certainty that at least one state in the U.S. recognizes a drivers license from at least one state of Australia for purposes of waiving a road test.

Rules vary by state. In sone states: * I-485 receipt helps you get a learner’s permit * I-485 receipt does not help, and state DMV — does not care if your presence is authorized. It will issue a learner’s — will not issue learner’s until you produce an EAD or GC This the downside of K-1.

Per https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/SaudiArabia.html you cannot get a Saudi police certificate unless you are a citizen or resident of KSA Per https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/UnitedArabEmirates.html it is recommended that consulates not require a police certificate unless you reside in UAE.

K-1 will not get you to U.S. faster than CR-1

both cannot be true

1. They will probably be able to visit 2. Yes 3. City you live in is fine

Rarely would the consulate require original evidence of U.S. citizenship from a joint sponsor.
