check the portal and some timelines for Ankara to get an idea how long others have waited https://tr.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/#:~:text=Current Operations%3A,all types of visa categories. Current Operations: U.S. Embassy Ankara is processing all categories of immigrant and fiancé(e) (K1 and K2) visas. As a result of the suspension of routine visa services associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a backlog in all types of visa categories.

i had 2 boys of my own / 3 step children that lived with me and i had 3 of my grandchildren for almost 2 years thru a family crisis kids adjust /yeah its a lot of work but kids handle situations better than adults I understand what its like to have household of 7 and only 2 1/2 baths and 5 getting ready for school and a husband wants to dress for work. Yeah, u will have some issues to face. Best u can do for yourself and his kids is to Love him with all your heart if asked at interview where foreign fiancee will live and he says in my own apartment, the visa will be denied and living apart doesn't help the kids find out what they will face the 90 days is to marry and live together and face life

the 90 days is not a trial period to help u decide /doesn't sound like u have made a decision spend more time visiting and decide if marriage is what you want take the kids and see how that goes

i see 7 days from 4th to 11th 7 days 11th to 18th 7 days 18th to 25th 7 days 25th to dec 2nd not sure i see what u see

Agree as S corps may not have non-U.S. citizens/residents as shareholders. and this could be a bit of a mess but you should have gone thru CBRA for the kids giving them USC and SS #'s /u could claim them

never heard the CO wants a certain order / most have seen the petition and copies ahead and only ask for a document when one is not in the paperwork from NVC most CO's do look at any of the documents u bring in But if u want to arrange it, make a cover sheet that is in outline form and tab the following sections always best on these posts to ID the country / embassy as those in the same embassy will give the best answers

please complete a tmeline and always ID The country/embassy when asking as that makes a great deal of difference If u r in high fraud country , the passport may be kept for days, weeks or months depending on the security checks done while you r in AP

No one here knows your situation and what the income difference will be when u refile and what u will owe but the check for that payment needs to be enclosed with the new 1040x. Refer to the tax schedule for what u paid and what the new payment will be You can only go back 3 years of returns Most recent year can be done online /the 2 before it must be paper What IRS will charge for interest and penalty will be billed Expect an audit Get your best info from IRS https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-1040x ° When to file: Generally, to claim a refund, you must file Form 1040X within three years from the date you filed your original return or within two years from the date you paid the tax, whichever is later. ° Processing time: Normal processing time for amended returns is 8 to 12 weeks. In general, we charge interest on underpayments starting on the due date of the amount you owe and will continue to accrue until the balance is paid in full: Tax is due on the return filing date; extensions to file do not extend the date for payment of the tax.May 4, 2023

He has to prove he knows our cultural and is willing to accept it and if u get a Stokes interview, u must know his Learn it, accept it and prove it to USCIS and fight for the visa, I did My comments are not meant to be just-plain critical but i hear from many Algerians, Tunisians and Moroccans and know what we have to face It can be heartbreaking /immigration can seem cruel but they are in control of our lives at this point and they have the right to say ya or nay allah yekbel means God hear your prayers

But In Algeria, its not and most mother of Algerian men would not accept Understanding the culture is a big part of getting a visa approved /his culture will follow to the US (i know i live with a Sunni Muslum as he would be from the Kabylie region ) Algeria also has unwed mothers but its not acceptable “There are also a substantial number of unmarried single mothers, with around 3,000 children born outside marriage annually. A strong stigma is attached to these women and their offspring. Unmarried single mothers are often rejected by their own families and have to endure immense social pressure that is from https://www.refworld.org/pdfid/4d2ebf022.pdf there is a lot to learn and understand when it comes to marrying a man from different religion and he will always be Algerian even when naturalizing Big issue for us is "i don't cook Moroccan food"

no previous marriage ? daughter out of wedlock is also a red flag

you can expedite the USCIS and NVC process the embassy still puts it in queue and will interview in line with others before u https://pk.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/frequently-asked-questions/ Some visa applications require further administrative processing, which takes additional time after the visa applicant’s interview by a consular officer. Applicants are advised of this requirement when they apply. Most administrative processing is resolved within 60 days of the visa interview. When administrative processing is required, the timing will vary based on individual circumstances of each case. Once the administrative processing has been completed, we will contact you immediately to let you know and will ask you to return your passport if we have not retained it. Once we have printed your visa, we will return your passport along with the visa packet via our approved courier service (American Express). If it has been more than 6 months since your interview, please e-mail us through our web-based e-mail submission form with your interview date and case number.

u don't need a visa service a US lawyer if there are criminal issues or past visa overstay and waiver(s) needed Think about the spouse visa K1 couples go thru a lot of hassles

For Islambad he will go thru AP after and it can be extensive as record keeping in Pakistan is poor especially on the older citizens during AP there is no expedite /it is just a long wait

fair? the sheer number of petitions Lagos receives is the reason for the long wait giving u examples fiscal year they approved immediate family for 2332 and all immigrant visas approved were 4609 /this does not include numbers for denied or nonimmigrant visas Lagos approves over 1000 tourist visas a month this is a lot of interviews and the queue is long while a country like Finland had 39 approved family visas for the same year/ yeah, they will get an interview faster in that counrty as there are fewer petitions check out the number of approved visas for yourself https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-statistics.html

Seriously take this advice a 10 day or 2 week vacation is just that /its not enough time to get to know a person / talking online u don't get to know the person an d how he acts day to day with all situations / on a 10 day trip he will be on best behavior On a K1 the non citizen can't work till AOS is applied for and he has EAD card. this time alone at home in a strange country is hard on many and puts a lot of stress on the marriage U may need to take a leave of absence and stay a month or longer while u think and check all things , make sure your income is sufficient for the process (CR1 has to be 125% of poverty guidelines)

CAREFULLY READ and understand the process, documents and timeframe needed to marry in Algeria return and marry there and petition for CR1 U need to spend quality time with him and show that the family approves of the marriage / there is not way around it when a CO thinks u have not been together in-person enough The K1 when returned is allowed to die at the USCIS office and u probably will not have a letter from them to say the issues the CO posted in the denial /never seen a denied K1 overturned for our countries He needs to ask for his passport back Other Red flags for a relationship from our countries can be 1 lack of former education 2 lack of job experience 3 cultural norms as most Algerian men would not marry a divorcee or widow from Algeri being Kabylian has nothing to do with this /its just a coastal mountaineous region in Algeria speaking Kabylie or berber /he is still Algerian and Islam is the major religion Like Morocco, Algeria also is part of the Arab League (Algeria joined August 6,1962 but they do not consider themselves Arabs either) My husband's family speaks Darija but is moroccan and our country also speaks berber aka Tamazight, French, Arab (in offical writing) just as Algeria does Kabylie is just regional

This is why i say marry and go CR1 Take Boiler's advice and file the WOM

marriage license and marriage certificate in the US always has the woman's maiden name they will not change this

if your USC wife is a permanent resident in Tunisia , she can find out from the embassy if they allow her to file in US embassy there If she is just there to marry and honeymoon and be with your family for a trip, she will file the I 130 online when she has the marriage certificate and certified English translation u will interview in Tunis at US embassy she should not do any interview/ if embassy does one , they can call her on phone and question her/ this is only when CO at embassy has suspicion that the relationship is not real Best to read the guides (hit on the word guide above) and follow the steps in order allah yekbel

you can apply to US companies at any time Company will handle the SS # (as applied for ) and have u do a W9 OR have u file a W8 untill SS # when u would file W9 with new SS # recd/ this is done per HR and company rules Foreign person. If you are a foreign person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 (see Publication 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities). Federal taxes on income is withheld per pay periods and company has to turn in federal taxes, medicare and SS monies for each quarter so they have a little lea way before needing SS # if you paid (the employer) wages subject to employment taxes with the IRS for each quarter by the last day of the month that follows the end of the quarter So, example : For work Jan 1st to March 31st, company would need SS # to send in with your withheld monies by end of April

she plans to live here /u can do the scenic route anytime do easy now she'll want to get someplace and stretch her legs ,relax a little I flew from Peru, stop in Bogata overnight as the plane had issues and then onto FLL / all i wanted to do was get home FLL is easy / the peruvians flying in on my plane had short interviews with immigration

i also pick FLL Miami personal can be rude i have used both and FLL is my personal choice But either will process

it was for 2 Moroccans they said how they met online and the embassy wanted proof of this and chats from the beginning Otherwise, it appeared they had married on 1st visit with the proofs they sent of the latter chats these moroccans both made posts about this here on VJ With your multirple visits, if there are no other red flags, it is highly doubtful that u will need the beginning chats From 2019 till now (4 years) with multiple visits is, itself, strong proof of a relationship
