Donation was done on inauguration date for Pres Biden. Most people donate to get someone elected. It could've easily been lost bet. "Biden would never be President?" "Oh, you are so sure? Want to bet about it?" Yes this is speculation just like speculation about his motives for registering Republican.

Regardless the political party affiliation of the shooter, I do find it interesting that so far there has been a radio silence on their actual motives, if they actually had any. Their social media footprint was minimal, most of it contained in Discord, and there was nothing particularly revealing from Discord either at least so far. I would not be entirely surprised if Trump was not even intended target, but instead it was someone local, or motivation was not political to begin with. Akin to Reagan's would be assassin.

Guess he was just a bit envious of VP ####### Cheney who actually did shot someone. Speaking of "bulleyes" where does this fall?

Domestic? A minute before that he was ranting about eliminating immigrants. When you kick a dog one too many times, it might bite back.

Primary thing they want to see is IRS transcript for 2023.

Aren't you past USCIS phase? They approved your case and it is NVC now. I would think if you have valid reasons to expedite you need to be contacting consulate at that point and have them request your case.

3rd party Case Tracker app does work for NVC cases as well as USCIS as of now.

Your I-134 will likely get briefest of glances at the Embassy and the part they will glance are IRS Tax transcript, not finer points of US geography. Also neither I-129F nor I-134 are signed by beneficiary, so it is extremely unlikely to be an issue or brought up at all. If it is brought up, you know the answer, simple mistake that larger city was named instead of smaller near by city.

Not entirely true. NVC will send paper copy of K1-FTP letter to address of beneficiary on I-129F form. It is not really needed for anything though and can be easily and faster printed by beneficiary from the NVC e-mail.

It shouldn't cause but after updating address, you might want to follow up with USCIS to make sure address WAS actually updated in their system. They are not very good about that.

I read your post. This is 2nd time it happened, On April 30 mail was not delivered to you as well. Chances are it is same mail now bouncing back and forth. You might want to check with your Post Office just in case. Or USCIS made a mistake and send that one to a wrong address, now it is bouncing.

I-129F is $675 MRV is ~$265 (varies due to exchange rate variation) Medical varies $30-$400 I-485 (AOS) $1440 I-765 (EAD) (optional but recommended) $260 I-751 (ROC) (rarely optional) $750 ====================== So yeah about $3000 not counting things like airfare.

I I am guessing this is in reference to April 30, 2024 entry when USPS was not able to deliver something to you, and it was returned to USCIS. They likely resend that document, but it got returned again.

There are some 3rd party app that allow you to check status, CaseTracker being the best probably. Note this is not an official USCIS app. It makes it simpler though as you don't have to deal with CAPTCHA.

What is this Engagement certificate? You might to be careful on how things are worded on it and it will not be mistaken for a marriage one. To the best of my knowledge government doesn't usually concern itself with engagements.

It is part of standard template of RFE for 2 year meeting requirements. They are not asking for pictures together specifically but it is listed as an example of the evidence you can send to them to satisfy it. Was part of template for that RFE. "Evidence MAY include but is not limited" I agree that including other stronger evidence to show meeting happened within 2 years would be prudent.

Your RFE is not so much for photo but for evidence that face to face meeting took place within 2 years before filing I-129F. Photos do not show dates, and hand writing dates and places on them is the weakest form of evidence. Concentrate on passport stamps, boarding passes things like that show official time of visit. Itirnary is not great as unlike boarding passes it doesn't guarantee flight was taken. Credit card receipt showing time and place are also might be good. Hotel booking etc etc.

NVC doesn't request anything from petitioner during the K-1 visa process. Most Embassies expect beneficiary to physically bring I-134 with tax transcripts with them for interview, but this is Embassy specific and you will need to research specifically about CR Embassy. Since it has been over 4 weeks after your I-129F approval, your USCIS likely shows "Case sent to Department of State" You can contact AskNVC https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html And then write to to them "Please provide NVC case number for approved petition WAC2390XXXXXX" If they have it, they will tell you what it is. Then you can check status of your case on CEAC page.

While USEM Manila might not care about I-134, I heard Philippines government itself does ask for it during Manila specific CFO process. Without CFO, Philippines citizens will not be allowed to leave regardless if they have visa or not, so you do might want to research this and coach your partner accordingly for the CFO.

2 weeks is a bit long. Just to make sure, you used new fee for I-129F? Lockboxes have been a bit overwhelmed recently. If they could not take your payment, your I-129F package will be returned eventually. Hopefully it will get processed soon. You can also e-mail lockbox support if you don't hear anything in 2 weeks or so.

1. Congratulations. Seems like your petition was already approved, USCIS has nothing to do with it anymore, no need to request to remove anything. 2. Won't matter. B2 refusal are routine. Will need to disclose it on DS-160. Sister is not relevant. Do not bring it up. 3. As long as he is comfortable answering that question during his interview, it should not be an issue. 4. No, only names used on legal documents matter, not nicknames. After marriage, depending on what state the marriage will be he might be able to change/simplify his last name. Should not matter for visa/immigration purposes. 5. I-134 submitted during interview IF Embassy requires it. Plan to use joint sponsor if your income is in grey zone between 100% and 125% of poverty level. 6. Both use I-134 at Embassy stage. I-864 later on during AOS stage. Good luck! Did you already contact NVC to get your NVC case number for Costa Rica?

If you mean I-129F petition, they will return back to you with rejection notice. They do generate receipt number for it, but it is not relevant, that number won't be reused when you resubmit it.

I don't think Manila even asks for I-134. In general though using assets is a lot HARDER and prone to RFE during AOS stage. You are often better off just finding joint sponsor for smoother process.

Why? I-129F is not an immigrant visa petition. It is not I-130.

That is very good, basically you just have local step left which is Medical, DS-160, MRV fee, and interview.
