Agree, we don't know the whole story he served over 3 years and was eligible to apply for citizenship after 1 year service If you served honorably in the U.S. armed forces for at least one year at any time, you may be eligible to apply for naturalization. So, why didn't he? Discharged in 2003 and just getting green card / he could have applied for citizenship under 5 year rule too Unless we know the whole story and not what the media likes to play up for the shock, then and only then can we really know who is at fault. https://www.uscis.gov/military/naturalization-through-military-service#:~:text=If you are serving or,and Nationality Act (INA).

he will have a layover in Europe so do they have a direct flight to Dallas or Houston? If so , pick him up at international terminal at baggage claim (arrivals) If he has to stop at POE inside US prior to Dallas or Houston, Pick him at at domestic terminal at baggage claim (arrivals) BTW if he is going thru Canada (like Toronto , etc) they have US customs clearance Be careful how u purchase the ticket make sure it is on one ticket purchase to US and not 1 to Paris , get new ticket there and continnue -so to speak - as that requires a French visa this has been an issue in the past for Moroccans if just a layover for many places (Paris and Canada) the US visa allows transit without a transit visa

https://www.irs.gov/businesses/the-taxation-of-foreign-pension-and-annuity-distributions US has tax treaty with UK As a general rule, the pension/annuity article of most income tax treaties allows for exclusive taxation of pensions or annuities under the domestic law of the resident country (as determined by the residence article). This is generally true unless a treaty provision specifically amends that treatment. For example, some treaties provide that the country of residence may not tax amounts that would not have been taxable by the other country if you were a resident of that country. There also may be special rules for lump-sum distributions. With respect to government pensions/public pensions/annuities (typically covered under the Government Service article) or social security payments, generally the payments are only taxable by the country in which the government is making the payments. Note that what constitutes a government pension or public pension is dictated by the treaty, and the rule may apply narrowly. Read under Tax Treaty Residency Issues

received letter today from Tennessee Elections Division that read as follows: Our office has received information that appears that your voter information matches with an individual who may not have been a US citizen at the time of obtaining a TN dL or ID card/ ETC Etc He wasn't a USC but was here legally with the IR1 visa. they sent him a form to remove his name from voting registry Don't these offices ever check with immigration?

U can't sue but spouse visa denial can be appealed by Immigration Court .but i don't advise it. As most know we went thru denial after answering huge RFE and then appealed the NOIR and we are married over 14 years and happy and doing good BUT i think most USC's should seriously consider the CO decision as a warning and maybe try to learn why the denial These CO's live in the country of the embassy,, know the people, see the paperwork and understand more about the circumstances than we do I don't know if a CO is allowed to violate the privacy of the immigrant by saying things like " :hey, your fiancee is talking to and telling many women he loves them" CO can check the ds160 or ds 260 info on the social media but this happens. We have even seen some come, marry , get the green card , then divorce and apply for a person back home And one woman flew into Atlanta and text her fiancee that CBP wouldn't allow her in and then he saw her leaving in another car Yes, divorces happen and even if married to another USC marriage was no guarantees but there are reasons (good ones) to deny or want more proofs of a relationship and we need to trust the judgement of a trained professional

Our experience for what it is worth MIL came on tourist visa to see if she may want us to apply for the CR1 1. very homesick as 5 other sons and her grandchildren 2. she also missed the Moroc festivals and spent much of her time on cell talking to people back home which at times was hampered by the time difference. 3. she was diabetic and cost of her 2 medicines were over $600 a month with trips to US drs for the prescriptions to be written 4. she was ill when here and we thought sugar level as that was off but turned out to be appendictis and when home needed surgery / would have cost a pretty penny here but only $1000 back home. At present Adil is in Moroc getting laser surgery for her to save 1 eye (from the diabetes) 5. Health care costs vary by state/ u can get lower premium packages but they carry the huge deductables KFF reported the average 2023 deductible for marketplace plans sold via HealthCare.gov, (combined for medical and prescription drugs) by metal rating: $7,481 for Bronze plans, $4,890 for Silver plans, $1,650 for Gold plans, and $45 for Platinum plans. 6. and the 2 things needed by seniors (eye and dental )are not covered under Affordable Health Care The Affordable Care Act does leave two forms of insurance for adults out of its provisions — vision insurance and dental coverage. 7. We took her to visit 8 states from city of chicago to Atlantic Beach in NC but it wasn't as good as her home, family and friends And we have numerous Muslim community here and some invited her to dinner but not as good as home

Sisu is not momentary courage, but the ability to sustain that courage. It is a word that cannot be fully translated.

Even if u find work now , your 2023 tax return would not show a full year of wages How will u show u can afford the health care insurance to overcome the totality of circumstances so your fiancee will not become a public charge u assume brother will support her but the I 134 is not an agreement to actually support the immigrant and is not legally binding like the I 864 for spouse visa I would say that u not only need a job but need to show steady employment to apply to support financially your fiancee and u need to look into the AOS process and expenses as after a US marriage this is quite costly on top of looking into health care insurance costs in your state to show u can afford this at the interview filing now without steady employment could mean a denial
