    "probably sent back" is vastly different from "sent back" Wait a few days first, and if you still have not received the NOA1 then contact USCIS.

    1. DS-260? 2. Did you pay the AOS fee? 3. Did you submit under the AOS section?

    Did your nephew file the I-130?

    Congrats

    What did your company's lawyer say?

    USCIS is traditionally minded when considering children - they deem having children together as the best form of bona-fide evidence.

    After a few days, call the SSA. Ask about your status - inform them of your approved CR1 and your SSN and ask if the system shows if a new card will be sent to you. If they state there is no request in their system to send you your card, go to the local SSA office. You may need to fill out the SS5 form.

    Once you check 1.d., and the USCIS sends it to NVC, NVC will assign the consulate based on the beneficiary's current address.

    Your name in the DS-260 should match your passport name. The embassy will issue the visa in the name that matches the passport. If you want to change your name for the visa, you would need to get your passport updated. If changing your surname in your passport is not allowed, how were you going to do it after submitting the DS-260?

    If you intend to live overseas with her for the entire process, get married and file the I-130. One immediate advantage is that the I-130 can be filed online. Be aware that it will take about 18-24 months for the entire process. You would need to sort out your authorized stay situation in Vietnam. Also, your income may change with you living overseas If you do earn enough, you will need to also prove the income will continue after you return to the US. But this is something to work on later. The I-864 isn't required until the NVC stage, which will be about a year from now.

    Pictures are not required. The BC is the main evidence of the relationship. USCIS does not require that children need to show evidence of bona fide relationship with their parents.

    Plus a statement explaining why you did not need to file taxes in 2020 and 2021.
  13. SteveInBostonI130
    That is a new case number created for payment of the immigration fee and checking on processing status of the physical greencard.

    Never heard of that. USCIS handles medical issues via approved medical doctors. It looks like 212 (g) (2) (B) is a medical waiver for not receiving all required vaccines.

    I-864

    I believe there is a warning from the US State department for travel to Russia. Lithuania is also none too friendly with Russia at the moment. Good luck with the visa and have her stay safe. 1. Should not. They will probably question her about the purpose of the trip. 2. No, not for going for a funeral.

    Not needed. There is no "bona fide relationship" evidence requirement for the I-129F. After approval, at the interview they will request relationship evidence. They would want to see that the relationship is ongoing up to the date of the interview. Time spent together is more important than anything else.

    Isn't humanitarian parole applied for by the beneficiary?
  19. SteveInBostonI130
    Looks like you didn't submit the most recent tax year (2021) documents with your I-864 and the same for your joint sponsor. Also, your joint sponsor's income does not qualify for sponsorship. It may be related to the missing tax documents.
  20. SteveInBostonI130
    @Nevada16, I did not see your BC in the list of documents. Also, I believe you may need to submit your parent's marriage certificate for your father. Also, I assume you will send 2 sets of everything? One for your mother and the second for your father?

    I added my wife to my health insurance as soon as we got married. They first told us she needed an SSN, but after speaking to the rep who handles our company's policy they added her with a placeholder for the SSN. Every couple months they sent me reminders to update her SSN, which took about a year to get. They never dropped her coverage.
  22. SteveInBostonI130
    EAD or GC will be acceptable in your case.

    A part of DCF is that the petitioner is a resident of the foreign country and needs to relocate to the US on short notice due to unforeseen circumstances. An LPR needs to reside in the US. If an LPR tries to DCF, I would imagine their US residency would be questioned. An exception may be for those in military service/deployment.

    The rule of thumb is twice as long out than in. If you visit for 30 days, then wait at least 60 days before returning for another 30 day visit. If it is just to visit your GF for the holidays, then 30 days should be fine. A part of the prohibition against engaging in work in the US with when entering with VWP (or B2, for that matter) is also not being able to run your UK registered business remotely. Answering an email or a call now and then is ok, but you are not to do any type of remote work.
  25. SteveInBostonI130
    It is fraud to plan to enter on a B2 or other non-immigrant, non-dual intent visa (like K1) and adjust status. Consular processing is the correct method.
