Don't forget that your spouse won't be able to travel for a little, or longer, period after she immigrates. Cancer treatment is often a fluid situation, will your spouse be ok with being away, and possibly not being able to go back home easily? Getting married there now would also allow her mom to attend. Something to think and discuss between you. Best of luck to you and your family.

My shirt is from the regional NFL team, trying to pass as a local. The cats enjoyed the stroller, and I could walk at some speed... they only run at 3 am! I think the cats are 12 or 13 years old now. They are very small, around 7 pounds each. Behaviours is very English, not sure why you Americans dropped the extra letters

Yelling, and other disrespectful behaviours are not cool... Yesterday was in a jogging stroller - but one of them does well on a leash / the other one just rolls in the mulch. Here is a short clip of leash "success": https://streamable.com/pr9nan - and her sister: https://ibb.co/9933qhF

It is even different at different times, depending on the volume of flights/passengers incoming, and available officers/lines. There is no right or wrong answer, you just ask, or follow directions when you land. No big deal one way or the other.

What's the plan now?

Good summary from Mike E Source here: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-7-part-b-chapter-6 Unauthorized Employment Unauthorized employment is any service or labor performed for an employer within the United States by a noncitizen who is not authorized by the INA or USCIS to accept employment or who exceeds the scope or period of the noncitizen’s employment authorization.

If only the address was mistyped, why did you write this?

I think the signature thing is overblown. If his spouse really signed the documents, she could submit a notarized affidavit that she did, in fact, sign those documents. Being unable to have the spouse confirm that the signatures were not forged is a much bigger deal, in my opinion. Why is that? Because they were forged? Because the spouse does not feel it was a legitimate marriage? [I am simply unable to sign on those new mini credit card slips, they're way to slim to fit my full signature, so I do a variation. I could still confirm that I did sign for sushi at that restaurant, that it is my signature, but never went to Taco Bell, so that one is fraudulent.] Same goes for the IRS documents, going in person to an IRS office and request his transcript in whatever most official version they offer (sealed envelope, stamped with office stamp, whatever they do when it's needed), would solve the issue. I see nothing from OP about solution to support that these documents were not forged. That's the sketchy part.

On another note, if the interview is months away, you can probably find a better paid job/second job and make up for the missing income.

What is your lawyer suggesting?

Do you usually go to motels to do bed gymnastics? Why no sleep? Took my miu-mius for a walk tonight. They seemed to enjoy it.

Nevermind, missed a detail at first read.

Is this the couple you are thinking about?

You want to check with the CRA/Canadian fiscalist also. It's been a while, but, if I remember correctly, non residents lose some exemption. Colleague of mine has used this firm in when they moved: https://www.serbinski.com/

This is the best answer. Read the guide. Then, head to USCIS, download the forms and the instructions. Read them. Then, come back to VJ with specific questions.

I am afraid you are simply realistic. Other couples have move together to third countries while waiting, but since OP is already in the Philippines, it might be best to stay together there, and plan to move back together/move back right before her to get settled.

Prior thread was that he only learned about the children after she made it to the US.

Which visa are you planning to request first, spousal, or tourist?

Is she your daughter, or one of your spouse's children/your stepdaughter discussed previously?

The law says to have the card in your possession. You can discuss with your lawyer what this means.

I kept my plate - it's been decorating my porch.

Applying for a spousal visa would clear the air. I mean, once they know each other.

Imagine marrying someone you don't even get along with after spending this minimal time together. Why?

I read that they were introduced. You still disrespectfed the importance of the change in their lives by Each person should be able to prepare/anticipate the changes, and what it needs for them. Not to "reject" the change/your fiancée, but to acclimate themselves with the idea of the change. Whatever that means for your kids - maybe it's to prepare a welcome gift for one, and to let their friends know that they'll skip sport/choir/etc. to be there early and spend more time together, or just buy a voodoo doll (jk). But how can they think it's an important event and that they should be "on", if you didn't even care to tell them the time and date. It's so, so weird, to just let them be shocked by the news. If you had different expectations, it was the time to share that also. We let our teams know at work when a new colleague is going to join us. They can do what they want with that information (update their distribution lists, refill their candy bowl, set a reminder to stop by and greet them, or nothing at all), but... They know? Others might have ideas of possible solutions. I know that I wouldn't marry someone if things weren't going smoothly, but I can't see how it would go smoothly. Sunken cost fallacy, as said by another member. You can also refer yourself to the great saying of "when you're in a q hole, stop digging" - the marriage certificate is not the solution right now. Good luck to you and your family.

"they were not told that this woman would be in their home". .... Seriously? How did you think it was a good "surprise". It's not a new TV. I think it's disrespectful to your kids, and your wife. I hope they are more forgiving than I am, because I'm really upset. I hope things get better, but maybe some outside counseling to help you navigate the changes. I mean, I've looked into how to introduce a new cat to mines, and prepared them for weeks - and you seem so careless with your "loved ones". I still can't believe it.
