    I have a game called "Mow-the-Lawn" and oddly, nobody ever wants to play with me. 😢

    Yes, and protein powder often draws a lot of unwanted scrutiny. Though the thing I am questioned about far, far more than anything is cigarettes.....every single time.

    Another point too is not to carry a ton of luggage with you. We didn't need a layover at FLL fortunately but since we were all moving from Peru we had a ton of suitcases. The officer though was pretty accommodating and said in order to save us (and them I'm sure) a lot of time he would send my wife to secondary and (since my daughter and I are US citizens) we could go through with all of the luggage and meet her outside. So my tip: don't travel with all your worldly possessions on the initial trip and especially no food, no plants, no cigarettes, or anything else that may arouse suspicion .

    Just out of curiosity here because it wasn't mentioned, but did you fill out and submit the "Privacy Act Consent Form" for the senator's office?

    Interesting... our child is covered under my wife's employment plan. I am only on her dental plan because I have my own medical (and my dental plan stinks).

    First, don't believe all the stuff you see on social media. Second, as someone married to a Peruvian, tell her not to stuff her luggage with a bunch of Peruvian foods; I can personally attest that this can bring unwanted attention and cause significant delays 🫣.

    Yeah you're right. Even worse. 😁

    We have been working on our application the last few days to prepare to file later this year. I am slightly uncomfortable with submitting all our joint bank (or any bank/credit card) information to some nameless person sitting in a cubicle, whether at USCIS or anywhere else (I know, I know, we did it during the IR-1 process and I'm still uncomfortable with that). Now you have me worried that what we did add wasn't enough. So far we have - child's birth certificate - copy of our auto insurance cards for last (almost) 3 years - lease documents for last (almost) 3 years - 2024 MFJ return transcript, 2023 MFS return transcript (w/copy of amended return to explain why it was changed to MFS), 2022 MFJ return transcript. That's it....any opinions, suggestions?

    I just checked. The answers are different on the app - on pdf its any of the options provided constitute a correct answer whereas the app is either one right answer or an "all of the above" choice.
  21. PGA
    OK. We downloaded the official USCIS app. So far, it seems ok. One thing I want to check is if the multiple choice answers are the same on the app as they are on the pdf. So far, it just seems the questions (and multiple choice answers) are taken from the pdf and put into an app. I'll keep you updated.
  22. PGA
    Great suggestions everyone, thanks! I was just trying to find out about experiences with the apps specifically that are available. We have downloaded the actual question list quite a while ago so she does have a copy. I know she does the youtube videos but sometimes she's easily distracted by youtube videos about restaurant/food critics and other things in Peru and I feel like I sometimes need to light a fire under her you-know-what. I may download the actual one from USCIS from google play and see how it works and try to do a review back here if I can manage to drag myself away from these youtube videos on lagers vs pilsners vs ales. 😁

    OMG, thanks for the laugh but now I'm somewhat concerned we are married to the same woman. 😂

    Has anybody used any of the apps available to help prepare for the exam/interview? We haven't downloaded any yet but I thought I'd check and see if anyone had recommendations, preferably free ones but we're open to all.

  31. PGA
    First (something I always recommend to people), offer to move to Mexico and see how that plays out. Other than that, I have some questions: have you ever met her in person? How did you meet? How long have you known her? Do you have any legal issues in your past? Does she? Does she have any prior travel history? Does she have a record of overstays of her visa anywhere (US particularly)? That is all important information to better judge the situation.
  32. PGA
    Good point. Though I can drive a few miles from my house and probably meet someone else from Peru, Mexico, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Czechoslovakia, or about a million other places.
