I will not be filing AOS
Verrou replied to SolRebel's topic in Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits
I was thinking since the marriage is so new, perhaps you can ask family / divorced lawyer’s opinion about annulment vs divorce ? Just an idea correct me if I’m wrong because I’m very green with this, i thought if the marriage never occurred (annulment) ur husband can’t file for vawa ? -
Reentry issue for Green Card Holders
Verrou replied to Saadiah's topic in Working & Traveling During US Immigration
because in SFO and JFK u can use mobile passport control kiosk...therefore = NO human interaction with CBP officer. after parents enter USA from overseas, they can travel domestically within US without encounter CBP agent -
Do I have a chance to visit my boyfriend in USA?
Verrou replied to Beauty by Tsuki's topic in Tourist Visas
In my understanding they won’t know people are gay unless you do super PDA (public displays of affection). But even heterosexual couples can’t do a lot of PDA because of Asian culture - so any PDA for any kind of couple, gay or not gay is still unacceptable. The reason that I mention this is because I don’t want our country to be generalized as a homophobic country. Of course there are homophobic people anywhere. I really hope you will get the tourist visa, but if you cant get it, like I said…your bf can come to indonesia safely and won’t be stoned. -
Do I have a chance to visit my boyfriend in USA?
Verrou replied to Beauty by Tsuki's topic in Tourist Visas
file B2 visa. if got denied, ur boyfriend can come to visit you in Indonesia easily with visa on arrival. easier that way, now i cant give opinion about his tight schedule. i'm from indonesia so i know theres no issue for gay person visiting their bf in indonesia. i have many gay friends in indonesia and they're bf overseas visited them in Indonesia with no issue. if you by any chance not comfortable to meet him in ur home town for some reason / small city or whatever, meet up in surabaya/ jakarta/Bali. i was born in Surabaya, live in Jakarta for 3 years and Bali for 5 years, gay community is quite big in those cities same like Bangkok. -
VAWA, Part 26
Verrou replied to TBoneTX's topic in Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits
Too nice and u ask questions that’s why they said wait wait wait. No need to put the last sentence ( comparing ur case with other) because that’s unrelated to your case ( each case is different ) IMO you need to tweak the email slightly and said “I would like you to go ahead and file motion to terminate or reopen or whatever directly to the court before end of the month” ( something like that). u notice that’s not a question. U pay ur lawyer to be ur counsel and that’s what u want to do in the mean time, shop for different lawyers -

This is BS. It doesn’t make sense at all -
VAWA, Part 26
Verrou replied to TBoneTX's topic in Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits
I called 70 lawyers in 2 months so I can fire my unmotivated lawyer at that time. Almost pulled the trigger to hire a new lawyer but in the meantime once a week I keep sending email to my current lawyer. He can’t stand it after 8-9 months ghosting me finally he gave up because of my persistent and filed termination to the court. always have ur eggs in many basket. @Family know I even wrote motion to terminate in 4 versions just in case everything didn’t go through -
Error when scanning my Green Card?
Verrou replied to tahm's topic in Moving to the US and Your New Life In America
Save check is the ONLY way. There’s no manual override unfortunately. I was in agony for 2 months because of that. I tried congressperson, I tried to contact USCIS, I even tried ombudsman. I tried everything. For once, I can’t win and just have to wait for the save check to be complete. now my thought theres probably something else going on here since OP already got unrestricted SS therefore theres no issue with the save check. OP need to be proactive and ask question in this case to DMV -

Error when scanning my Green Card?
Verrou replied to tahm's topic in Moving to the US and Your New Life In America
if your SSN card has no extra word " valid for bla bla bla " that means u have unrestricted SSN card going to SSA office wont help you. because SSA office wont give you that unrestricted SSN card if ur status is not clear i will go back to DMV and talk with them. it happened to me to, and the DMV person said it's okay just wait for DHS to approve you, once the save check is clear, u will get ur DL. now my question : did ur DMV person say anything like that? they cant just said " sorry ur out of luck good bye". if you are green card holder, they will help you. you are allowed to ask " how can you help me so i will get my learner permit?" put ur A number and see what do they show : https://save.uscis.gov/save/app/client/ui/case-check -
Error when scanning my Green Card?

Sorry I should rephrase it better in this scenario DHS who can update the status is USCIS. As u know they don’t talk to each other 🤣 -

Verrou replied to tahm's topic in Moving to the US and Your New Life In America
It’s hard to tell with GLOBAL entry or nexus because they actually do background check. Not like SSA office or DMV when they simply rely heavily to SAVE check result so that’s why is always important to get that issue ( if people even know about it ) sorted out. But since this issue is not general consensus, many people didn’t know until they hit a problem -

Verrou replied to tahm's topic in Moving to the US and Your New Life In America
Nope. It’s DHS not doing their job. They are the only one who can update the SAVE check so other agency can see the change of status. Plastic GC won’t work if the SAVE status not updated -

DHS aka USCIS notoriously did this to some people (including me). They “supposed” to update automatically on SAVE check system ( that’s what government agency used to check ur status ) but from time to time, they didn’t do it. I know it stupid since they can see u have the GC. But i never need to show my GC to supermarket ( for what ????) and also doctor office ? ( for Whatt ???) the only time I showed my GC were for DMV and SSA office Have u get ur unrestricted SSN card from SSA office ? If not, go to that office, and tell them you are GC holder now and want unrestricted SSN card. You will be put on on hold misery for couple of weeks until ur SAVE check update DMV also can do it for u. Usually they will request it manually to DHS. don’t bother to call USCIS. They won’t do anything for u. -

U won’t get approval for i-485 if you don’t terminate ur removal proceeding. The court is higher hierarchy compare to USCIS. USCIS can’t by pass court. And administrative closed isn’t termination. It just out of the docket but not out of the court -
ITIN and K2 no SSN Question
Verrou replied to BOKURAGAITA's topic in Tax & Finances During US Immigration
ur kids probably will receive their SSN before end of the year. ur husband can only file for 2023 tax return next year anyway and not this year. if i were u i will wait until end of the year before even think about iTIN
