  1. Update as of 9/9/2024: I think things are starting to look better. My anxiety caused me to think the worst. I am doing more than well - I've entered college and my relationship with my partner is very good. When it came to marrying them, I didn't mean what I said. I don't think I'd ever marry them for a green card, I would take my time and marry them out of love because they deserve good things. Even if it meant I couldn't become a citizen. Anyways, a few weeks ago, my stepparent and I went to the USCIS center to get biometrics done. It was scheduled for 2 pm but we got there at 1 pm. I am a military dependent so I have a military ID too. I didn't know this, but because of the military ID I was given priority and allowed to finish my biometrics early. It took 5 minutes. I thought it was funny, but it gave me hope Today I got an email from the USCIS about a case update. They're asking for more evidence. I was worried we'd need an I-130, but it turns out we only need an I-864 and I-693. Both are free and we need them done by December 5, 2024. I'm really excited now since I think I'll be able to get my green card in the next year. I can't wait to be able to make money and help out my stepparent, and I'll be able to pay off whatever college expenses I need, too. I do want to express that I feel really guilty for not believing in my stepparent since there were so many questions they couldn't answer and I didn't like how they just told me to wait it out because I assumed the worst was going to happen. But I'm forever thankful for them I do need to ask: before I go and research it, how do we get the I-693 finished? Thank you everyone
  2. Hello I am not sure if anyone remembers this thread but here is the first update (7/26/2024): We tried to file for FOIA but found out it could/would cost like $25 and we weren't sure if my bioparent had to pay or if we had to pay. I don't know what the hell happened but we didn't get any information. I'm not even sure if my bioparent consented to having the information given to us, really pisses me off and I don't think they're reliable. I have no clue if the I-130 was filed now. I'm panicking My stepparent sent in the I-485 a week or two ago. The I-485 was the only document sent, with supporting files like the I-797, my high school transcripts, new passport photos, my bioparent's old passport, my old passport, etc. I've heard you need to send in an I-864 too but stepparent did not do that. I have a feeling we're going to get denied... and my stepparent wants my bioparent and biosibling to live in the US with us. Stepparent keeps carrying too much on their shoulders and honestly I wish they'd just ask for help. This last part is going to be a bit of a rant since I have nowhere else to talk about this... but I'm dreading everything right now. I feel like my only option is to get married to my partner but that's going to take a really long time since we both need to finish school, and as much as I hope we work out, sometimes things don't go the way we want it to. There's so many things out of my control and I have no idea what the future holds and where I'll end up. I'm trying to stay positive but it's in the back of my mind and I feel like I don't have much time. Everything is in the hands of other people, and I feel like I can't rely on them. I want to do something but at the same time I don't know what I can do except pray and hope
  3. My stepparent and I will have a look through getting a FOIA request. It also looks much easier than looking through every box of documents to find a specific form
  4. My bioparent and my stepparent did not divorce, actually! They are still legally married I think, except she's just not living with us and is living in the Philippines. I'm hoping the situation isn't actually as scary as I think it is, and that maybe it's considered abandonment of some kind or we just need an extra form to fill out
  5. He plans to file the I-485, that's it. He said he didn't file it sooner because I was just a baby, but I don't understand what that has to do with anything. He could have just filed for my mom How do I complete a FOIA request and what information do I need to access it?
  6. He's convinced he doesn't need one because he "knows how to fill out all the forms"
  7. Hello everyone, I am a first time poster here I came to the USA on a K-2 visa about 15 years ago. I am 18 now. My parents married within 90 days. I have no clue whether my bioparent (immigrant) filed for AoS or not, but I'm going to say that she didn't. Either way, she left the USA a year later after their marriage and I ended up staying with my stepparent (USC) How am I affected as a K-2? As far as I know, I don't think I'll be able to adjust status since I've read that my status relies entirely on her. My stepparent says otherwise because my bioparent has a SSN but I also read that SSN doesn't really matter since it only affects taxes or something. I want to convince my stepparent to get a consultation with an immigration attorney but he might say its too expensive and a waste of time. Not sure what else to do except accept my fate. Just want to know if there is anything I could possibly do or if there is actually hope and I'm just all doom and gloom
