  1. Nobody is disputing that. Posting thread on a forum about a question is not same as having interview. Also I am not sure what CBP is involved until visa actually received. Maybe you mean consular officer (CO)? Regardless, did person need to be educated / explained about importance of precise terms? Sure. But do it after you actually understand what they mean and maybe in a manner that doesn't feel as a pile on.
  2. To get back to OPs topic without diverting CEHT oxygen sucking pit of despair, as a more recent (returning) member, I can show you brief example, and I will share my own thoughts I was reading thread at the time. Again, this is just a random sample thread I've witnessed. I believe some posts by OP of that thread were removed due to them being not in English which might make it more confusing to follow now (As an aside frequent post removals in the middle of a thread or thread itself to me is kinda very weird quirk of this side. Even in this thread we already had someone announce "This thread will be removed soon, so I am out" Doesn't scream as productive discussion to me.) OP posts confusing sounding but clear question, originally in K-1 forums I believe, there is a response linking to forums for K-1 procedure. MOD reacts to that response it with what I perceived as weaponised "Confused" Emoji. Why is there confusion? Was link wrong? If there is an issue, please explain. Single emoji confused reaction is one of those things that can be perceived as "bullying" They are not helpful. They do not explain anything. They are just there to make poster feel bad about what they posted or to signal to others "Look at this goof ball posting nonsense" Maybe it isn't meant like that, but that is how it is often perceived. OP refers to their partner as "Wife" The assumption is immediately made they are married and there for need CR-1/IR-1 visa to thread is moved there. Now, just from reading immigration forums as a person not professionally connected to immigration at all, I am aware that in MENA countries it is very common for partners to call each husband and wife long before marriage. A person with zero knowledge about K-1 visa nuances likely won't know the dangers of that. I also think anyone with posts in thousands on immigration website should have some degree of cultural awareness, OR at the very least clarify with a clearly unexperienced person about what they mean. That is what I mean about being charitable before jumping to assumptions about the posts. In that thread you can see folks who do provide factual explanation, but there is also a sense of a dog pile in the midst of whole CR-1 vs K-1 confusion thread being moved from one place to another etc. Additionally OP clearly uses some automated software to translate messages, and unfortunately when they respond replies get translated as well. I think that should be addressed on a technical on the forms. When responding to someone, original reply should be immutable. Eventually thread moved to region specific forum and locked and some administrative action is taking. No idea what that means in practical terms. OP is banned? For not being technically proficient enough? Now objectively speaking, do you really think this good example of best experience someone to the forums or K-1 / CR-1 visa process can get? I think some more active members might have an issue with burn out, it is perfectly ok and understandable. If you only pop into a thread to type short pithy reply followed by "I am out" maybe ask yourself if you need to post anything at all.
  3. Yep and then you can go to closest Walmart and get 6x4 printed for 10c or so. Probably cheapest way to go about when you don't have photo printer at home.
  4. Sure But can you see how what you typed is different from what said? So is sharing information from the sources other then self reported forums timelines ok, or not? And mentioning tools outside (E.g. widely popular apps) is ok not? That is not advertising Whatsapp groups or FB communities. Or the goal is just to have a walled garden where any sources of outside information are purged.
  5. I believe this is about 3rd party app Lawfully for both iOS and Android. They also have website with USCIS statistical information. I have no idea why this site would forbid access or sharing factual information from other sources that can be either helpful or at least interesting to people monitoring USCIS internal workings.
  6. This has been my observation as well. Often seems members posts in low to mid thousands cruise into a thread to drop off putting, and to be honest not always accurate response, then cruise out. Seeing same or similar question asked might be jading to some members, but responses giving outright rude responses, or jumping to assumptions, or subtly putting down people due to cultural or language differences is really off putting behavior. This is not about people "wanting to hear answers that they want to hear" but basic decency and giving members who ask questions big or small a modicum of charitability and not treating them as either incompetent or fraudsters.
  7. The hopefully they will internally sort it out. A bit concerned about biometric. If biometric letter only mentions I-485 and not I-765 it might be a bit of an issue. Guess just wait and see. Worse case scenario, after awhile after you have NOA1 for I-485 resubmit I-765 to correct Lockbox while also including NOA1 for I-485.
  8. What you posted is for Employment based I-765, yours is Family based. Eligibility category (C)(9)
  9. They say to put zero because this form is about petitioner assets primarily. Description says "assets available during the stay" You brought up "working full time" Beneficiary won't be working full time during the stay, not right away, so that part is not relevant. You can push cash assets beneficiary has but it likely won't be looked at or considered. Petitioner/sponsor is who need to provide tax transcripts as evidence of their income.
  10. They might be. Lots of July 2022 cases are getting approved now actually. Looks like 128 for July 2022 were processed yesterday.
  11. Pretty sure it means just that, they fixed typo on DOB. Also I think you mean to say NOA1 was June 18? Unless it was July 18, 2022? Or time travel? You can get estimates for I-129F approval times on some websites. It is about 10 months or so now.
  12. K-2 can get SSN after either I-765 or I-485 approval. What K-2 cannot do generally is get SSN right away arriving into the country the way K-1 can.
  13. Some languages to do not have gendered pronouns, Turkish for example is one of them. It is clearly person is posting using online translator. The gender actually might matter though as most countries won't allow same sex marriages which will eliminate all those CR/IR I-130 suggestions.
  14. Which is fine to give a friendly heads up if that is an actual issue. But not treat it as some crime or red flag because person who might not be well versed in nuances of USA bureaucracy used culturally appropriate to them term. Site is meant to be helpful not antagonistic.
  15. They said partner "came to Turkey" doesn't mean beneficiary lives in Turkey. Most people in MENA countries refer to their partners as husband and wife regardless of legal status. It is cultural thing.
  16. "Certified" just means that translation needs to include following statement: Anyone can do it, and you never hate to pay for it.
