  1. I recommend reading this https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/guides/M-618.pdf It’s titled “Welcome to the United States A Guide for New Immigrants”
  2. I’m glad my wife didn’t care to change her name and I don’t care if her last name is different than mine. Avoids a lot of problems…if your wife doesn’t care if your names match I’d definitely just skip all this hassle
  3. Have you looked at the guide? It spelled everything out for me
  4. Your best bet is to join the thread for your k1 receipt date and you’ll see periodic updates there. There’s not enough people putting their timelines in for a decent estimate, and then of course there’s thousands of people not using this website so their processing times don’t get included in the estimate. From what I read though the times are getting better from when my wife was in k1. Good luck!
  5. I recommend reading the guide to US Immigrants on this page https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship/civic-integration/settling-in-the-us
  6. Any federal employee clicking an external link like that would get a stern talking to
  7. Imagine going through all the stress of the K1 during a pandemic to get here and then your fiancé pulls a move like that, I’m not sure it’s worth continuing with this relationship. If he’s like this now, what happens when there are other things to get stressed about or argue over. Right now you’re looking at months of unemployment if you through with the marriage.
  8. I wonder about this as other people in the group I was in (July 2023 filers for I-485) were getting processed quickly too
  9. Look at my timeline, wife got her work permit in less than a month and her green card in about three months after we got married in July of this year.
  10. I’m sorry that is ridiculous, I provided a list of all my deposits that I created from data from the bank. 150 pages is completely over the top and unnecessary. Just don’t be silly.
  11. So my wife has her green card now, since getting married as part of the K1 process. The only thing we don’t have yet is an I-131, it’s the last of the three forms to be approved (work authorization, AOS and travel authorization). So can we take a trip to Canada without the I-131 given we have a green card in hand? I tried some searching on the topic but didn’t see anything. thanks!
  12. You should have electronic copies of the NOA2 also. I suggest you look really hard for this paperwork and take the process much more seriously as you’ll need that information for other purposes like getting a driver’s license or state id.
  13. I’m not sure you’ve posted enough information to help us help you. Is your timeline up to date? When we applied after getting married the AOS/work authorization/travel authorization were applied for simultaneously since you’re allowed to do that. Maybe add more details to o your question?
  14. I just added my wife to my insurance through work, not much effort required there. Doubled the monthly cost but worth it for the peace of mind.
  15. I see so many problems with this but your first stop is the guides here for K1 and CR1 visas. Do you have a US passport? I can’t imagine how hard it’s going to be for you if you’ve never even lived in the US before.
