  1. Support the exit stamp with boarding passes, receipts, photos of the two of you together. The USCIS officer will not care about missing stamps or why they are missing.
  2. Police certificate from Korea. No requirement for documents to prove where his parents/brother was born, nor where he went to school. If you were married in Japan, there's no requirement to get marriage documents from Korea.
  3. The I-485 must be filed with I-864 (unless your beneficiary has 40 qualifying work credits in the US). I-485 without I-864 will likely be rejected. No fee for I-864 filed with I-485.
  4. You are referencing an archived article. Hand-written signature is required. It's explicitly stated in the I-864 form instructions -- https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-864instr.pdf What's not required is a "wet" signature at the time of interview. This simply means that the I-864 to be brought to the interview can be a print-out of the scanned I-864 uploaded to CEAC.
  5. *** Moved from Bringing Family of LPR forum to Bringing Family of USC forum, where topics about F3 (married sons/daughters of USC) cases are discussed *** That's the reality of US immigration. For an F3 visa case with I-130 filed only in Jan 2021, you will have to wait around 14 years or so, until they can get to your case.
  6. I agree if that is the case. Also, the emergency passport would have an exit stamp from Philippine immigration when the fiance left to fly back. Not sure why there is a need to explain the missing earlier stamps.
  7. Did your SIL check that the credit card company did not reject the charge as a possible fraudulent transaction? This has happened to other VJ members.
  8. I-130 processing estimates are posted here -- https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ But, as mentioned above, for your visa category, the visa bulletin is much more significant in determining how long your case will take overall -- https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin.html Is that a typo? Did you mean unmarried? Is your father a US citizen? F1 (unmarried son/daughter over 21yo of USC) cases getting visa interview now are only those that have I-130 petitions filed back in Dec 2014. For F2B (unmarried son/daughter over 21yo of LPR) cases, it's Sep 2015. For F3 (married son/daughter of USC) cases, it's Nov 2008.
  9. No, apostille is not up to the discretion of the reviewer. Apostille seal is explicitly listed in the DOS requirements for police certificates from Panama. No such requirement for police certificates from Honduras. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Panama.html https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Honduras.html
  10. *** Moved from Bringing Family of USC forum to General Immigration-Related Discussion, where topics related to GC production are discussed ***
  11. *** Removed related thread. Please post your related questions/updates in this thread to keep the discussion in one place. ***
  12. Submitting the affidavit of loss would be pointless. Passport stamps in a lost passport is not evidence. Focus your time and energy on submitting evidence that you actually have. Try boarding passes, receipts from the Philippines with the USC's name/card, credit card statements.
  13. *** Removed related thread in a different sub-forum. Please post your related questions/updates in this thread to keep the discussion in one place. ***
  14. Added EB thread for Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Added thread for Tbilisi, Georgia Added thread for Vienna, Austria
  15. *** Moved from US Citizenship Progress Reports to General Discussion ***
  16. That would be the safest approach -- hand-write signature and date.
  17. List of Means-Tested Public Benefits from the official source, USCIS -- https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p As for medical bills, legally you may not be responsible, but these are your parents, right? Surely you have a plan in place to cover their current or potential medical needs? In case you haven't already done so, you and your parents should seriously consider their health insurance options upon immigrating to the US.
  18. Your PD is not current, as per the latest visa bulletin -- https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2023/visa-bulletin-for-may-2023.html You will need to wait for your PD to become current. Only then will your case be scheduled for interview by the consulate. No one can predict with certainty when the visa bulletin will progress.
  19. *** Moved from AOS from Work/Student/Tourist Visas forum to AOS Progress Reports ***
  20. *** Moved from Bringing Family of USC forum to IR1/CR1 Process & Procedures *** After DQ, removing documents on CEAC would be disabled for you. So just upload the new joint sponsor documents before your interview, then bring the same documents to your interview. Inform the consulate staff that you do not want to use the previous joint sponsor documents for your case.
  21. *** Moved from AOS from K1 Visas forum to Working & Traveling During US Immigration, to be among other threads about I-131 application *** Note the "or" in the form instructions. If you are an AOS applicant, no need to provide documentation on the purpose of travel. It's ok to enter "TBD" for part 4 of the I-131 form.
  22. The official filing date of the I-130 petition for you. Priority Date should be listed on the top-left section of your I-797 approval notice for the I-130 petition.
