NYTimes travel question with bad advice
JeanneAdil replied to jackiegringa's topic in US Immigration News and Discussion
This all depends on where the ship will stop and if cruise is "closed loop" Although the following is true Legal U.S. Residents (Non-Citizens) Legal permanent residents of the U.S. must have a valid passport from their country of citizenship and a valid Alien Registration Card (Green Card) to enter or re-enter the U.S. But If ship will dock (say at Aruba which is Dutch) a Chinese citizen would need a tourist visa so it matters where the ship, itself , is going. If the person needs a tourist visa and does not have one, the ship can not let him board, Even is a person is a naturalized citizen some countires require a tourist visa to travel there example: born in Cuba -needs visa for Brazil even with a US passport -
To Nigerians/Spouse to Nigerians [merged threads]
JeanneAdil replied to Eberechi's topic in Tourist Visas
You have a pending CR1 so u have immigrant intent Any CO would assume u intent to stay in the US and AOS from here /therefore deny a tourist visa IF by any chance, it was approved, CBP would more-than-likely not allow entry into US as the system would show a CR1 Please fill out a timeline as its so important for all of u going thru the same embassy -
we had 3 different petitions a lot of questions for the 2 that were denied for the approved final one the man only asked 3 questions Interview was quick and visa was issued within a week

How old is this child? before 1993 there was poor record keeping but since then not so as all births are recorded by NPC . For people born before 1993; you'll only be able to get an Attestation of Birth + Affidavit (2 complimentary documents), as a Birth Certificate cannot be issued for people born before the formation of the NPC. Nigerian birth certificates (and copies) have in upper right corner , the month, year and entry # where the record is (this doesn't change) Center is parents names and DOB at bottom left is the area born and actual date of record (not changed if a copy) the only date that would be different would be the stamp date when u got a new copy Unfortunately the following is a statement of what u face in Nigeria All indications are that the use of false travel documents, birth certificates and other documents is increasing

Proof of relationship - digital ?
JeanneAdil replied to wildefanforever's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
They prefer seeing copies (do not send originals at this point) of real life meeting a few photos together boarding passes to show the visit(s) A few messages from start and a few to show continue chats (it seems chats have only been important when a CO suspects a timeframe of 1st meeting online) 1 page letter to say how u met and in - person meeting and listing of any additional visits Best to say what country because each embassy has special needs like ours would be a photo of USC and moroccan mother to show an approval of family -
Divorce
JeanneAdil replied to Public Charge 101's topic in Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits
I am truly sorry he has hurt you I am sure your family is saying "u r lucky to find out before he took u for everything and ran u into debt" U will get a lot of advice from family and friends /much of it will conflict / only when u find out u don't want to hear this will u understand u r finally able to handle things on your own Don't let someone who isn't worth your love make u forget how much u r worth God bless u OP if u saw any red flags when u and he were together, share them with others U said he expected u to wait on him hand and foot / In his home did the women do this? Did he expect u to buy everything for him? Or did u offer? Did he need money sent while he was in his country ? when u chatted was all the talk about immigration and his visa and when would it happen? Did he cut the chats short as he had things to do? Did u know if he used a fake ID for web sites? How many dating sites did he use? Many embassies put out a list of warnings about international marriages but there are things we see / hear when talking to someone that just make us wonder DOS red flags aren't the ones we see but i think, sincerely , that the COs in many embassies have a pretty good idea as they see the cutture and they know if the person has a job and /or education to get one They just see the person with experience and the head ruling as the heart is not in control -

Taking interview in an anti LGBTQ country
JeanneAdil replied to mogox15161's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
US embassy should follow US laws and same sex marriages are legal BUT remember CO's also consider cultural norms Examples for ours was that a Moroccan man would not marry an older Moroccan woman or a widow and i was older and a widow Hope u get an American interviewer More than likely u will be asked what your family thinks of the relationship / this question is very normal for our countries even if a straight couple as its important for the family to approve Best to Know your fiancee really good to answer all questions honestly To not volunteer any info the CO does not ask for Be confident in yourself Bring photos to show your family has met him The best life to the 2 of u -
How did u pay for ds160 ? it is paid at interview of K1 according to embassy instructions $265 paid in cash at the Consulate, in either U.S. Dollars or the equivalent in Moroccan Dirhams.

Rejection due to 214b. Need reapply advise!!!
JeanneAdil replied to Tablehair's topic in Tourist Visas
while u were in interview, i am sure CO was tryping and it was easy for that person to look up info on Harvard site and see that Harvard Kennedy School was offiering a lunch hosted by Anne Boustead on cyber encryption on the 8th of November as follows Lunch Seminar featuring Anne Boustead, Assistant Professor at the School of Government and Public Policy at the University of Arizona. In a talk entitled, "Measuring Encryption," Boustead will explore some of the legal and policy issues that could be informed by additional data on encounters with encrypted devices in the criminal justice system. But Harvard U only has a course from the 7th to the 18th full days U were not able to explain your intent to attend with sufficient proof as this lecture is 1st come 1st served -
Stipends may be considered income in terms of withholding taxes—the distinction between them boils down to how they're classified. Like other forms of compensation, they're subject to Social Security and Medicare taxes unless they meet specific exceptions outlined in IRS Publication 15-B.Aug 3, 2023

https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-increases-employment-authorization-document-validity-period-for-certain-categories Release Date 09/27/2023 We are updating guidance in the Policy Manual to increase the maximum validity period to 5 years for initial and renewal Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) for certain noncitizens who are employment authorized incident to status or circumstance, including those admitted as refugees, paroled as refugees, and granted asylum, as well as recipients of withholding of removal. What is does not say is that the wait time for ROC will be faster So, it helps the illegals but those who pay and go thru this legally can naturalize and don't need 5 year EAD

Spouse interview -photos
JeanneAdil replied to Bobtaylor19931's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
take some If u do, they will not be looked at but noted that in Lagos that u bought them if u don't take them, the CO will ask for them as additional evidence This type of evidence has little value unlike the post above mentions but asking for it can cause a delay in decision to encourage someone to give up -
