She can go work without time pressure worries. ..you are overly optimistic as to how fast you will get through from date of filing to interview date. She will need to interview in Manila unless she has some long (er) term status in another country. Until USCIS approves case, she no reason to “ visit” a US embassy on anything related to the K-1. …and until the case gets to a consulate , they will not visit with her on the subject. You designate the consulate on I-129F w USCIS at filing , but you can’t select Thailand based on the short term you described.

Fallout from US Republican candidates Donald Trump’s New York Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday continues after clips of speakers disparaging Puerto Ricans, Palestinians go viral. Hours after a speaker at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally called US territory Puerto Rico an “island of garbage”, backlash against the Republican candidate only intensified as several high-profile Puerto Ricans responded by calling on fellow Puerto Ricans to make their disapproval known at the ballot box. “Puerto Rico is trash? We are Americans, Donald Trump,” TV host Sunny Hostin said on the popular show The View on Monday. “We vote.” “We don’t like what was said about Puerto Rico. And we know how to take the trash out, Donald Trump. Trash that has been collecting since 2016, and that’s you Donald Trump,” she added. “Trash collection date is November 5, 2024.” https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2024/10/28/us-election-live-polls-tight-as-trump-harris-rally-8-days-before-the-vote

That attorney likely does not have volume experience and lacks exposure to the various immigration attorneys online groups where he would have heard plenty . .. You can send it to USCIS without fear , but they will just bounce it back and tell you file was transferred . Since you know what is needed , just get to it. -
Fun fact: Trump's mother Mary MacLeod was a migrant worker with no skills, no education beyond 5th grade, no money who came from the poorest part of Scotland where she lived with her sisters in a grass roof hut style home. Trump's mother was granted the "chain migration" entry that her son Donald now opposes. Trump's mother worked as house cleaning lady along with her sisters who also lacked education or skills. Had MAGA immigration policy been in effect in the 1930 at the height of the Great Depression when umemployment was sky high and nativists screamed that the "migrants are taking American jobs" he would not be here today.

‘’‘Jenna, [between] us, do you know of anyone who complained of gender discrimination, pregnancy discrimination, or sexual harassment, in the 2020 campaign? Do you know if the 2020 campaign settled any lawsuits regarding such?” texts allegedly from Delgado ask. “Yes. Off record—Boris. The campaign settled multiple suits,” a text reply allegedly from Ellis reads. “Have your investigator subpoena Michael Glassner,” the texts advise, apparently referring to the Trump 2020 campaign strategist. Former Trump Staffer Shares Texts Revealing Secret Payoffs A new court filing alleges that Donald Trump’s campaign has paid to bury a number of lawsuits over sexual harassment and discrimination. https://newrepublic.com/post/183468/former-trump-staffer-delgado-texts-secret-payoffs-sexual-harassment

The Most Important Election Of Our Lifetimes ’’…do what you need to do to make sure your vote counts. Check, double-check, and triple-check your registration. Make a plan for getting to your polling station. Review your ballot online. Check out your down-ballot measures and candidates, because local politics most immediately affect your day-to-day life. Vote early if that's an option for you. And most of all, keep your head up.’’

Opinion: I'm a doctor. Let me explain why reelecting Trump threatens your health. As a hospital-based physician treating the most sick and vulnerable, I must advocate against voting for Donald Trump for president and any MAGA-inspired politician who follows him. In early 2021, at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, I distinctly remember rounding on a patient in my hospital dying from respiratory failure – unfortunately, not an uncommon occurrence during that time. What stands out in my mind was that no matter how much oxygen he was hooked up to, my patient never took off his red “Make America Great Again” hat. And every time I would walk in, between his labored breaths, he would grumble about how evil Dr. Anthony Fauci was, how the newly released mRNA vaccines were dangerous, and how the Democrats wanted to control us with masking policies. Experiences like this crystalized in my mind how intimately related politics can be with health care. Starting from the top, a trust in our public health system and in science itself could influence people to make healthier choices; on the other hand, leaders who breed distrust in these institutions could lead to death and suffering….. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2024/10/28/trump-healthcare-public-health-crisis-covid-denial/75803322007/

‘’I am a straight black 60-year-old male and I had to fight back the tears when she spoke about the woman's body. I have to take my hat off to you ladies because no one knows what you go through with your body but you and that's why no one should be able to tell you what to do with your body But you know what you are voting for when you vote

They usually get the same response “ vetting, background “ checks …but any attention to the file helps. Iraq is tough, I am sure you are aware why. Were they asked for DS-5535 …, if not I would volunteer that info plus anything else you can think of that could help establish their clean history. -

Ankara civil surgeons ( medical exam) fee is set at $270 . ..guessing on first round they got stung by extra shots. ..but can’t see need for that in second round. A family of 5 could run up a tab, though. Reach out to your congressman Delay is usual, especially if your sister is from Iran and let’s say her husband did military or had some political affiliation with flagged groups Charges for the physical examination and other required tests are to be paid by the visa applicant directly to the examining physician’s practice. Total standard fee is $270, which includes the blood test, urine test, chest x-ray, gonorrhea testing and the physical examination. If further testing is needed additional fees my apply, like sputum smears and culture testing for TB, drug screening test, pregnancy test, etc. Vaccination fee varies from $20 to $200 depending on age and vaccines required. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/ANK-Ankara.html -

Yes, taking these actions will help. The nature of your offenses means the petition was/is approvable at filing for USCIS purposes. ‘A timely correction for your misunderstanding ( call it a dude blonde moment 😂) and complete records or custodian no records exist evidence will suffice if CO has it before or at interview. If I recall correctly, the John and Rose VJ story always referenced was a non disclosure AND the challenge of the petitioner in getting records or no records letter at and post interview. Going through the extra effort of a written request to the arresting agency , is overkill but you can do that as well. My position is that you offer those only if you get a No Records Exist Letter… I love our Justice System , even w faults , imperfections and OJ Simpson outcomes…but I also respect the ‘’prison justice ‘’ reality for AWA convicts. Kudos for researching before you shot yourself in the foot with that withdrawal 😂 -

To do: * Go run your own FBI prints to show all arrests and do equivalent of CAL DOJ for court search * Request Certified court records for each case. Even if court sends certified letter that “ records unavailable “ it will be fine . 1. Write up a letter : Supplemental Filing for I-129 F case # Name Beneficiary, DOB Name USC Petitioner , DOB Dear Officer, I hereby request the above ref petition be updated in order to correct an unintentional error at filing . ‘Requested correction : ‘I-129 F form , Part X, Page Y , Question Z should be YES. ‘Details of my only two contacts with law enforcement arrests/convictions Very very short description of event 20xx, ( date) arrested by Law Agency ( police, sheriff ) ‘Detained and released ( after hours , days or no jail time) ‘Court disposition ( convicted of xy date) Case # On xyz date , record annulled (?) expunged 20xx ( do same for 2nd ) 2. Send a copy to NVC ( upload via Ask NVC ) , it will bounce, but it’s important to show you took steps 3. Email same to Embassy ( google both immigrant and non immigrant unit email address) 4. Send the ORIGINAL certified court records to your fiancée to take with her to the interview. ..OR better yet, if you can afford it, fly there and go with her in person. ‘Even if they don’t let you in, she carries your passport inside and tells officer you are waiting outside just to make sure all goes well.This is NOT a requirement , so don’t fret.
