    Yes.

    My reading is the same as yours. Filling MFJ means your spouse is not a dependent for tax purposes even though they may rely on your income This is consistent with the information in the N400 instruction pdf.

    These changes will not impact the N400 application .. Just make sure you have meet the 90 day before filing residency requirements

    Depends. What is the date on the notice? Despite mailing it before you left, if you left before it went through the system, then yes, it is usually a big problem. Some Vjers have reported denial of the application and another denial on entry as the CBP officer can see these dates.

    There are no options for her through your fathers IR5 application. She must be petitioned separately for a visa of the correct category … unmarried sibling over 21 of a USC(you) or unmarried adult child of an LPR( your father after he arrives in the US). Both have long waiting periods (10-20 years) for a visa to become available.

    Please fill in your timeline so we know date of initial entry and visa category.. as well as details about your times out of the US since then .. When and how long for each time.. as well as why you are needing to be back in Canada so much after just arriving on your visa. All this info is very pertinent and we really can’t give good replies without knowing more. Thx

    Agree with@Boiler. Not required. But that said, you should think through carefully how you are going to be covered once you are both there. The websites you listed are short term catastrophic cover .. better than nothing in the immediate but severely limited in their cover ,. Usually only accidents and emergencies, often with high deductions and copay, no drug coverage and often excludes preexisting.

    See it in person … but our instructions for the interview included us bringing a copy as well as the original so they could have kept that if they needed to

    According to the EO, Processing of refugee applications has also been suspended. An asylum seeker is one whose claim to be a refugee has yet to be determined. Im assuming you are in the US now on refugees status? Im so sorry. There is little you can do but do make sure you stay in touch with NVC every few months so you keep that application active. Stay in close contact with your community refugee support group and agency… link up with one of you aren’t already connected.. find above advocate groups and keep yourself informed as possible

    A scan of anything is a copy. The scan/copy does not bear the authenticating watermarks or raised seals that authenticate the document issued by the authority The scan /copy cannot be authenticated without comparing it to the one given to you by the authority who issued it.

    Sounds like you are taking about Pakistan regulations .. see a local accountant Best to ask as precise questions as possible… otherwise you will m keep getting general or US based answers

    There is no limit on transfer amounts. It has to be deposited somewhere.. usually into a bank account.. All transactions over $10000 are reported to the IRS. The source of the funds .. savings, sale of a house, earned interest, withdrawal from a retirement fund.. and your status ( lpr etc) at the time of transfer will dictate what the IRS deems taxable income. US taxes some sources very differently to other countries and you can find yourself owing tax if you are not aware of the issues.

    Taxation agent/accountant very well versed on the complexities of overseas assets for immigrants. Can be v costly if you don’t know the complete information.

    Big step done !!! Hope it moves quickly for her now !

    They are looking for the certified copy .. Not a scan of it .. they only have a scanned cup copy on the NVC file and they want to see originally ( certified) of all that was electronically submitted. .
  18. Lil bear
    Yes correct. That’s why I stated “original” and “ hard copy” as different things. Maybe, sometime, someone could put together a glossary for the vj website .. So often terms need to be explained and can cause major confusion
  19. Lil bear
    Petitioners original documents are not required. Originals of beneficiary’s documents uploaded into CEAC are required. Plus hard copies of financial documents used for meeting the financial support requirements

    His visa expired the day he entered c the US. He is a permanent resident. The stamped visa in his passport is his documentation of this .. valid 12 months from entry and used as documentation until the plastic GC arrives

    As she has a valid current visitor visa, she will be allowed to board the flight. She will need to carry evidence that she is returning to her home country and it will be up to the CBP agent at Point of entry to decide if she is granted entry. But she cannot stay, cannot adjust Status. Not eligible for it and fraudulent use of the visitor visa as well

    Consequences are rarely predictable There are no “good” ways out of this only some which are much worse and others which are a bit better. Own up.. face up to out .. protect your daughter and move on with life

    Read the instructions for the I90 found on the USCIS website. As she has a 10yr GC, her lpr status is no longer tied to the initial conditions of being married to a USC. She will probably need her marriage certificate but it’s not for evidencr of ongoing relationship, it’s verifying information in her application and online
  24. Lil bear
    As evidence of residing together out could be useful. Better documentation for this would be things that have the same address on them for both of you.. drivers licence, lease, bank statements etc
  25. Lil bear
    Reread the instructions. If you answered yes for 16 then you fill out 17. By default if you answered no to 16 then you skip 17. This isn’t the same as leaving a mandatory question blank.. thats when you use NA .. not here
