    You can file for his adjustment of status, as long as he's happy not being able to leave the US or work for quite some time. Follow the guides at the top of the page, and yes, each form has its own fee. Good luck.

    OK, less chance of an expedite then than if he was younger, you could still try for one though. And as @Lemonslice said, you could move to Morocco whilst it's being processed if you don't want to be apart from your wife during that time. Good luck.

    Not possible, that would be immigration fraud. I'm afraid this is your only option. You could try for an expedite though. How old is your son?
  4. appleblossom
    Ideally yes, you would have cancelled it. But you can do that now, you need to write to USCIS and withdraw your I-485. So you're now going down the I-130 route?

    Looks like you were DQ'ed in September? So a little while to wait but hopefully not too much longer - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html Good luck.

    Website says 8-10 weeks so I think probably too early to worry. https://mx.usembassy.gov/visas/ Good luck.

    If he really can't get documents to prove the relationship, then they may ask for DNA testing.
  8. appleblossom
    His ban is long over, I can't see any issue from what you've said.
  9. appleblossom
    I'd be very careful. 50/50 isn't the ideal for maintaining your LPR status, and having a job in another country certainly isn't. I sympathise, my mother has Alzheimers and is also undergoing cancer treatment, I fly back to the UK 8-10 times a year, but make sure that I spend far more time in the US than in the UK, plus all of my ties are in the US. After all of this, it would be awful if you were referred to an immigration judge as your status was in doubt. You're now tax resident in the US so make sure you file as such too.

    Oh, and also now you'll have to enter on your GC each time, so make sure you live in the US and visit Canada from now on, not the other way around!
  11. appleblossom
    It's a GC, but as above it will be so interesting to see if the residence since date coincides with one of your visits (hopefully) or with the phone call you had with the agent (hopefully not). Either way I'd definitely order your full immigration file via a FOIA as @OldUser suggested above. If an error is found in the future, even after citizenship, you could have your status revoked, so best to make sure it's legit.

    Just Informed Delivery which will tell you if it's on the way as mentioned above.
  13. appleblossom
    Do you have Informed Delivery? If so, see when it's due on there but likely to be the next day or so.
  14. appleblossom
    That can happen, my daughter's never arrived and so she had to go in person (the rest of us got them no issues though). I wouldn't make an appointment until you've given it the two weeks after entry that they say to allow. It looks like you only entered a few days ago? Do you have Informed Delivery to see if it's on the way?
  15. appleblossom
    Have you read the guides at the top of the page? They're a great place to start to understand the process, and then you can ask any questions as you go along and somebody will always be happy to help.
  16. appleblossom
    They may well have been referring to the actual visa application part of the process, as that's when you will need to provide the beneficiaries birth certs. For the I-130 they're not required though.
  17. appleblossom
    It might be worth re-reading the guide for new immigrants to give you an overview of SSN's, and green cards etc. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/guides/M-618.pdf Did you tick the box on the DS-260 to ask for the SSN to be issued?
  18. appleblossom
    Yes, not long though, the NVC stage is pretty quick and your wife is also at one of the quickest consulates so won't be too much longer. You can see NVC timelines here, it's updated weekly - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/nvc-timeframes.html Make sure you follow the step by step guide posted by @Crazy Cat super carefully to avoid any delays, good luck.
  19. appleblossom
    Just re-read your posts, if you were born in Turkmenistan then how are you applying under Europe?
  20. appleblossom
    You only pay for one I-130. And when the time comes for the actual visa application if your sibling is the only one moving then it’s only one set of fees, if they change their mind in ~25-30 years and decide to bring any dependents then you pay visa fees, medical fees etc for each of them.
  21. appleblossom
    Yep. Does case tracking say the card is on it’s way now?
  22. appleblossom
    You can check current times on this page - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html For F2A’s, they’re currently scheduling those DQ’ed in Nov 2022, so well over a 2 year wait. But by the time a visa is available for your wife, that may well have changed (hopefully they’ll have reduced the backlog a bit). As @Crazy Cat said, your case won’t be sent to the consulate until an interview has been scheduled.
  23. appleblossom
    Don't panic, as you can easily get an ADIT stamp if you don't have the physical green card before your I-551 year ends. It's free, you get it mailed and that will give you another year.
  24. appleblossom
    The OP stated earlier in the thread that she hadn’t lived in the US long enough to pass on US citizenship to her children, which is why she’s having to petition them.
  25. appleblossom
    Ok. He’s likely to age out unfortunately, you need to hope the I-130 takes as long as possible for CPSA calculations - that’ll be another advantage to both parents filing for you, in case one takes much longer than the other. Do submit them asap!
