i believe the AOS process should speed up a bit because USCIS will now be paying attention to the people who are here legaly.. As opposed to the Bidens admin useing USCIS resources to process illegials..

Hello Well here we are almost 3 years after we mailed in our I129F.. Man what an adventure its been.. My fiance and her K2 daughter finally got here in Jan and we got married in Feb filled AOS (I485, I765, an I131 in Mar and in May had the biometrics done here in NC.. Were now getting ready for 2 things. 1- the marriage green card interview 2- in Oct our other 2 K2 kids will be interviewing atbyhe BKK US Consulate in Thailand for their k2 visas While i thought things would get easier they are just as complacated as the I129F was when I really didnt know what I was doing.. 😁 Iv learned a few things since.. So my questions are: 1 - what documents do i need to send to Thailand for my 2 follow on K2 kids interview...? and is it an interview since they were listed on the original I129F that got approved in Oct of last year? 2- for our ( myself and the wife) K1 green card interview what docs should i be getting together for that interview? and is their any other forms like the DA260 or I130 or I864 that i have to fill out an resubmit new or just bring copies of the originals to the interview.. iv been reading alot of conflicting stuff Theirs pretty good stuff on the USCIS site that iv seen then i read some legal immigration sites who say different. 3- also has any body who's been thru the interview have any advise on the interview process they could share

i was wondering about the documents i the petitioner should send with the K2 kids interview.. we'v already been approved via our I129F and their names are on the intial document so what should i prepare for them for their interview

Thanks for your reply. so just to make sure i understand correctly she will get her medical in Sept maybe the 2nd week. they interview Oct 9th.. They will be ok to travel by the 2nd week of Jan because her medical will be good until the 2nd week of Mar.. yes? but as long as she gets here befor the 2nd week of Mar..?

Hello My wife got her K1 visa in Jan 5th of 2024 and 1 of the 3 kids traveled with us to the US. we have 2 K2 kids that will be traveling soon their schedualed interview is Oct 10. Im wondering how long after their interview do my K2 kids have before they have to travel to the US? My oldest has her finals in Dec. Also since our I129F has already been approved by the US consulate BKK and the 2 follow up K2 kids are named on the original petition what documents do i need to get to them for the BKK consulate interview as the petitioner? Also does their interview date in Oct effect the 1 year time line to travel for their departure form BKK since we filed their DS160 back in Mar and just last week got the Oct date..?

I have a question. I just got my I-179C (NOA) for all of my I485 packet which included the I485, I765, and I131 for my wife and my K2 daughter except she dosent have the I765.. When we got the NOA's for all 5 submitions my daughter was assigned an A# as she came in as a K2 under my wifes A# and thats how we filed all the forms.. Now my wife has has her A# on 2 of the 3 forms but she has my K2 daughters A# on her I765 NOA but with my wifes name... So im wondering is that correct or do i need to do something...? Also i turned in the AR-11's for address change on March 28th and I submitted the packet on March 11th and we got our responce April 12th but all of my wife and daughters NOA forms went to our old address. I got the recipt acknowledging my change in the mail.. should i wait longer, resubmit contact ISCIS or what..?

I got my txt notification that my I485 package which included the I765 work , I131 parole travel was all recieved on Mar 11th on April 15th and my checks were cashed on April 12th. im wondering about how long did it take to get your NOA's.. as of today the 24th iv not recieved them... any ideas?

Wow... my checks were cashed on April 12th and i got the email notification on Mon the 15th telling me my case was recieved on Mar 11th and they would be sending me the recipt notice in the mail.. exactly 1 month an a day from when i filed and 2 days before my wife an K2 daughters I94 expires.. so were hoping for a quick I765 responce ao my wife can get a job.. she's dying to get moveing in that direction

hello joining this group i filed my I485 an packet on March 8th via Fed Ex an got a signature that it was recieved on Mar 11th.. so far as of today April 8 the checks still havent been cashed an iv not heard anything from USCIS were coming up on out 90 days on April 14th so im hetting a freaked out here any ideas

hello everybody im wondering if anybody is haveing an issue with the I485 being processed after being recieved. i got a notification from fedex that uscis signed for out packet (i485- i765- i131) forms on Mon March 11th.. so far to today 3-19-24 nothing has happened even the checks havent been processed.. Any ideas?

My K1 fiance came in to the US on Jan 17th and we got married on Feb 2nd. Im looking to get her SSC at the local SSA. Im planning on getting it with her maiden name so it'll match her Thai Passport that were useing for her ID until we get her green card. My question is on the SS Application question 5- Citizenship check one- choices are: 1-US Citizen 2-Legal Alien Allowed to work 3-Legal Alien NOT allowed to work (see instructions on page 3) 4-Other (see instructions on page 3) The instructions state: 5- If you check legal alien NOT alllowed to work or Other you must provide a document from a federal state or local government agency that explains why you need a SS Number and that you meet all the requirement's for the government benefit. so. My question is what is the document were supposed to have if we check number 3 or Other. ?? My assumption is since we are K1 an my step daughter is K2 we will check number 4 Other.. correct..

Hello, My K1 fiancé came in on Jan 16th with her K2 child and we just got married on Feb 2nd. Im currently looking over the 485 and 765 an 131 forms and running a rough draft filling. So i was hoping to run a few thing past you guys: 1- I-485 My intentions are to take my wife and our step daughter to the SSA an get a social security card under her maiden name an my step daughter in her original name as that will be her name on all the forms. So the SSC will match my wifes Thai passport. Then im gonna file the 3 forms in my name. By the time we go to SSA and i file the forms i dont believe she will have her SSC or SSN but we would have filed WIFE Form I-I485 Part 1 #14 Has the SSA ever officially issued a SSC to you. (Answer) Yes If you check yes than answer #15 which is your SSN - - - -- --- (answer) leave blank if we dont have her card yet #16 Do you wont SSA to issue you a SSC YES NO ((check YES) #17 Consent for Disclouser I authorize disclouser of information for SSA to issue me a SSC YES NO (answer) Yes K2 Child should be the same as above except her name will be the same on all forms plus her SSC 2- PART 1 Information about you when i last entered the USA Im not sure about the choices listed as they dont seem to match the K1/K2 visa entry Part 1 -25a was inspected at a port an admitted as (eg) exchange visitor, waived thru, temp worker, student 25b was inspected at port of entry an paroled (definitely not this one) 25c came into USA without admission (definitely not this one either) 25d Other- ( im figureing this one as writing K1/K2 Visa entry) Also the Part 1 #26 if you were issued an I-94 Arrival Deperture record im assuming to leave blank or is that information on their (wife and step daughter) visa on their passport? Part 1 #27 What is your current Immigration status? (If it has changed as since your arrivial)? Not sure what to answer since were married. Part 2 #2 Are you applying for adjustment based on Immigratioin and Adjustment act (answer) NO INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR IMMIGRANT CATAGORY What is derivative applicant and principal applicant- im figuring this section doesn't apply to the K1/K2 visa AOS correct? Part 6 Information about your children my wife has 3 kids 2 that will be follow on's later this year an one that came immediatly. All 3 are listed on the I-129F when we filled and at her interview my wife told the immigrations officer that the other 2 will be follow on's. So here on this section I'm figuring that all 3 should be listed. 3- FORM I-765 WIFE Filed in my name and use her maiden name in the previous names sections Part 2 #13a- Has SSA ever issued you a SSC YES NO (answer) Yes If answered yes provide information on 13b #13b- SSN --- -- --- (Answer) leave blank if we dont have her card yet #14- Do you wont SSSA to issue you a SSC?

Thank you guys ahead of time i know its alot and alot of it has already been covered here on this thread. Im looking for feedback that im going in the right direction. Just one more thing if for some reason we dont go to the SSA to file for cards and i file the forms will y answers change in any way. Wondering as im still filing that i still wont SSA to issue a card. Just wondering as i still intend to got sometime this week

CR1 nice to see my original quote still floating around. hope it helps someone just an update on my status. we are now schedualed for our K1 interview in BKK on Jan 5 2024. so i posted this in July of 23 when USCIS was working our month.. took 496 days to get our NOA2 approval.. i still believe that if i were to do it all over again knowing what i do now id do the CR1 ticket.. when i get my fiancean the K2's here to the US i have to file for change of status an then file for her to be able to work an then an then more things.. costs an time differance after the approval favors the CR1.. in my opinion. When we went the K1 an K2 direction i thought it was best for the kids an im not sure how the USCIS factures them into the equation for the K1 vs the CR1.. so we went the safe route. Good luck on your visa adventure.. this site is a gold mine of information..

Im also trying to figure out the same issue.. were scheduled for our interview BNK on Jan 5 Part 2 #13 the way i saw on you tube is to fill out the fields with the names of beneficiary an BDay an put Self/ Beneficiary I hav a K2 attached so listed both so looks like this: Individuals full name. DOB. Relationship to Beneficiary. Income contribution to Bene Jane Doe. 11/11/1980. Self or Beneficiary. $0 Jane Doe jr. 11/11/2010. Child. $0 Total # Dependents. 2 Total Income. $0 Also the Part 3 #14 Income: Do i put my jobs yearly income based on my W2 here? Also i make a certain amount every year based on an hourly wage an my income has been down in 2022 because time off traveling back an forth from the US an Thailand. So do i put what my 2022 w2 says or my 21 W2 that shows my full yearly income. ? Or can I list my full years income an provide both the 21 an 22 W2's...?
