  1. Why do you say that? Source?
  2. Ask them to put that in writing for you on their stationary and notarized if possible.
  3. I think they are issuing NTAs on all denied I-751s? The USCIS Policy Manual discusses this situation: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-6-part-i-chapter-5 Scroll down to "2. Separated But Not Yet Divorced" then under that to "Initially Filed Joint Petition" If you read that section, it says the petitioner needs to proactively inform the office that receipted her petition that y'all are separated and getting a divorce. When she does get an RFE, if she doesn't have the divorce decree yet, I'd provide as much as possible. Affidavit from both parties saying y'all are working through the process. Anything from the judge that you can get. At a minimum she can get a copy of the filed divorce complaint and court documents showing the matter is active. The hope is they will accept that and not deny it but then issue another RFE down the line. But, provide the divorce decree asap don't wait for a second RFE.
  4. Consider getting Global Entry before departure. Some people get conditionally approved within days and can get an interview near their home. So it is worth a shot even with an imminent trip.
  5. Unfortunately, without the court reports, I don't think we can help much.
  6. Is there a reason you don't want to wait? For us, it's petitioning for parent and we have international travel planned for next year. I was looking at the timelines here and on Facebook groups and the interview and oath could easily fall during our trips if we wait. I can't find a case for anyone who successfully rescheduled either interview or oath.
  7. No, I don't know of any who have tried it. I think most people who are CR-1 and file early and get approved just got lucky with an officer who didn't enforce it.
  8. Who knows when this will be implemented or if at all. If you have any of those conditions, just be prepared to give more financial information showing you can cover costs of treatment or that the petitioner has health insurance that the beneficiary can be added to and that the petitioner will be able to pay the additional premium.

  10. The title of the post says B1/B2. There is one big problem with consular processing in Ghana. There is a 2+ year wait for an interview.
  11. I-864 is only the form to financially sponsor. You should fill all of these: I-130, I-130A, I-485, I-864, I-765, I-131, and G-1145 (plus forms for your payments). An alternative is to file an I-130 for your spouse then he goes back home and consular processes. He can continue to visit during that time using his visitor visa. I suggest you review the guide here:
  12. I just don't see this. I have not been able to find any announcement or news article explaining that this is their goal for this policy. (or that they even have a goal for this policy). I was responding to the previous poster. But the key issue with your theory is it also affects some people who have already done what you say they want them to do. They could have exempted spouses of work visa holders. They didn't. My theory: they just don't like immigrants (both legal and "illegal") so they will do whatever they can get away with to make things harder for immigrants, no matter if it's good policy or not.
  13. In your first post you talked about "family based and other immigrant petitions." Now, you're talking about TPS and "grey areas." In any event, I don't see the connection between this policy and encouraging consular processing. Some of the people this affects, such as the spouses of work visa holders, have already gone through consular processing. It also affects asylum seekers and they have no consular processing route. People on TPS have no consular processing route. Who cares if it is legal for Trump to do? It was also legal for Biden to parole in millions of people. Doesn't make it good. The question we should be asking is is it good policy? What are the benefits? I imagine renewals have very low denial rates so what is the point? And how do these unexplained benefits outweigh the costs to employers and lost tax receipts (not to mention the costs to the workers themselves).
