Having entered legally into the US the last time the person enters is a requirement for Adjustment of status if eligible as an immediate relative. No legal last entry .. no AOS possible.

You can ask but it’s in the hands of the Consulate and may not get you as much time as you need… you may still find yourself running out of time to enter with an issued visa or being very delayed in interviewing . I re read your post and see that the I 130 have already been filled for your children You can still follow the rest of the info in option 2 ..

How did they enter the US ? Visitor visa and overstayed ?

Correct terminology K1 visa is a single use visa granting entry upon presentation Entry using K1 results in a period of “authorised stay” of up to 90 days After the 90 days, the K1 user becomes “out of lawful stay” status, and is subject to deportation, unless a further period of “authorized stay” is granted by application such as Adjustment of Status. Accurate understanding and use of terms is really critical in these processes Many many delays denials and refusals occur because of inadequate understanding .. it gets really disheartening and very expensive when this happens

Your options 1. Your petitioner should file I 130 immediately for each of the children. Slow down the submission of your NVC documentation until their petitions are approved and sent to NVC. Request the NVC to link the cases and continue the processing together. Immigrate together 2. your petitioner should file I130 immediately for each child. Continue your processing through NVC and consulate interview without delaying it. Arrange for your children to stay with relatives in your home country for about 1 -2 months. Once you have your visa, enter the US.. Your stamped passport will be your evidence of your LPR status. Immediately get your SSN, bank account etc as evidence of your residency and intent to domicile in the US. Immediately file for a Reentry permit I131 for yourself. On the form, indicate that you want to pick up the issue permit at the US consulate in your home country Wait until you have received notification of the receipt of your application and either have had on file biometrics applied or attended the required biometrics appointment. You can then leave the US and return to care for the children while their immigration process takes place. It may take 6-12 Months for the permit to be issued. You have 2 years from that date of issue to return to the US without being assessed as having abandoned your LPR status. Return yo the US using your reentry permit, accompanied by your children using their immigrant visas

Possibly yes. Not guaranteed Yes.

IMO, the I131 will be rejected as the requirement is that the applicant must be in the US when filing for the travel permit .. not that the I131 must be “filed/posted” from within the US. I recall a thread recently where an OP was in the US, mailed the I131 application, and left the country the next day .. before the USCIS received the application .. and were denied because they were deemed to have not been in the US when it was filed.

I used the stamped visa. It is valid for 12 months from entry. No need to wait for the GC and no need to risk getting it mailed to you

They don’t care who actually puts it in the mail. Just make sure it is what they are asking for, has the correct cover letter attached, and is sent too the correct address. Use a signature required, proof of delivery Service and keep photocopies of everything sent

Part B is never free. Monthly payment even when getting Part A free I guess though if you choose a basic Medicare Advantage plan that has zero monthly premium, that can seem me make part B free … But they usually have a hefty deductible and restrictive in network limitations. You pay either way !

Dont need to do this once of stay outside the US after entering as LPR will not cause problems. But remember that the LPR status is for living in the US.. so don’t delay getting this sorted and getting them back to the US to live The stamped visa is all that is needed for reentry. Make sure the $220 per person Green card fee is paid and that the address to which the cards are being sent is a safe trustworthy location so that the green cards aren’t returned because they can’t be delivered. Family address and heads up

The OP had separate AP and EAD cards rather than a combined one. Also, some people have applied for a reentry permit during their time as LPR, so that is also needed to surrendered at naturalization

It would put you back to the start. Visa issued but not used is voided after the expiry date refile, pay$$$$ again and go through the WHOLE process again Follow CrazyCat’s advise

The red section is to be read in conjunction with the upper section. Crazy Cat is correct .. if the document is in Spanish it does not need an english translation

Dear fellow aussie ..i am just trying to have what you asked for done. Thats all. I am sure your account will be deleted, as you requested, very soon.

The australian food shop .. should google easily or DM me .. has Cottees lemon cordial .. for a price

I have brought your request to the attention of the moderators. Sorry your previous contact was unanswered.

Yes we had that. No employment history. It is based on answers to earlier questions .. though i cant tell you which ones !!

You have to keep pestering the Consulate with the urgency of this issue. I do not believe that the consulate will see people without interviews

No it will not be ok. The consulate needs to reseal it.

Have you tried logging out then logging back in to start the second one ?

Bring whats on the letter , . hard copies of the documents submitted for the N400.. i also took the NOA i gad received from USCIS previously but that was just an abundance of caution !! Maybe the expired lease and a letter from the landlord attesting to the month by month arrangements and the correct answers to the civic test questions ! 😁

Not an issue. Overthinking. Put either 5’2 or 5’1. No one will measure her. I’d there a height on a current drivers licence ? I would go with that

DCF is for extremely urgent and v v limited circumstances and must be accepted by the consulate before you file the I130. Submit the I130 to USCIS and any possible eligibility for DCF is gone DCF is not “the normal process for people living outside the US”

He will be changing process from Consular processing to Adjustment of Status. A lot more involved than changing his address. when did you submit the I 130 ? Have you received the NOA1 for the I 130 You will need to submit a copy of the NOA1 along with required forms and supporting documentation for his adjustment of status , travel permit and work authorization. I do hope you have something in place for His health care coverage
