  1. How much time have you all spent together in person?
  2. It is not compulsory, but she will then have her French documents in her maiden name, as I said. Some do not care, some are worried about the name discrepancy. A few benefits of having a carnet de famille, if you want to look into it, but that can be done later if you ever want too.
  3. Married name might bring other complications since her French (flag shows France, sorry if I am mistaken) documents will stay in her name, with the possibility of yours being added on, after going through marriage recognition with the French consulate.
  4. Is today before October 22? If so, print the proof of delivery and enjoy the wait until the approval.
  5. My local library offers access to virtual classes and in person discussion group. You might want to ask yours to see if they have similar resources. Best of luck!
  6. If it was work in Canada, she should be able to look up her T4s in her Service Canada Account. I know I can look up mines under my tax information. That would be a reminder of all jobs she worked. Better dates might be available under Employment Insurance, but I haven't had a Record of Employment (ROE) in a long while, so not sure about that. https://www.canada.ca/en/employment-social-development/services/my-account.html
  7. Of note, if you are planning to enter by land from Tijuana, the CRBA would be required, but not necessarily the passport. See: https://help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-724?language=en_US Still very valuable to get a passport as soon as feasible though.
  8. Anything submitted after the interview in Montreal usually brings a delay of a minimum of 6-8 weeks. Historically, that is how it goes.
  9. Same, I am not a clean freak... The "problem" is that one of my cats think she's too good to cover her 💩 Yes, indoor is totally safer, unless they have an enclosure. I am sure you will find something that works for you.
  10. Yes, little Devon Rex sisters! Yeah, 3 weeks is about the most I can do, no matter what I use. I find that it works a bit better with more litter in the box (a good 3-4 inches). Husband scoops in the morning, I scoop late afternoon, and then again before going to bed. They seriously poop like tigers, I don't know how they can create their own weight in waste every day lol Every couple of days, I top it up with a bit more litter. Do you still have chickens? Could the cats use their enclosure as a catio (and do their things outside sometimes)?
  11. I have been crazy busy with work, and then... some personal stuff. I am not sure my heart can handle more grief
  12. English is my third language, so whatever
  13. @Ontarkie What is your main problem with the litter? Is it that the volume of litter does not last long enough (scooping it out and all), or that the odours are not well controlled? Here, both cats insist on using the same box and no matter what, I need to top it up eventually, and then change the whole thing when it is not "fresh" anymore. The little beasts tonight 🥰
  14. The good thing is that for such a short period, if they don't get their visas, it is possible to hire a nanny for support and assistance. Is your employer providing you with some leave also? Grand-parents can then grandparent later, when they are able to come.
  15. For the reasons you have listed, among others, it is not uncommon for the American citizen to move back to the US before their spouse.
  16. I know of at least one exception to the bolded part: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/transit/without-visa/china-transit-eligibility.html
  17. What exact steps have you done since you posted a similar question back in March? Your wife has been out of status for so long, you really have to get on top of it. Get it done this week, for the love of her.
  18. Use your driver's license/State ID and SSN card. Read the i-9 instructions for possible combination. better not to show it anywhere - in my experience, it is better to keep your immigration process to yourself, without ever pretending to be a citizen - just state that you are a Permanent Resident. Show only what is required, when necessary. Less is usually better.
  19. As others have told you, there is no VAWA dispute. If you have evidence of fraudulent activity, you can follow the instructions at the bottom of this page: VisaJourney.com recommends that if any member or user knows directly of someone involved in fraudulent or illegal activity, that they report such activity directly to the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement. You can contact ICE via email at Immigration.Reply@dhs.gov or you can telephone ICE at 1-866-347-2423
  20. Acrobat free works fine for most... What's not working now?
  21. Most users are able to fill the forms without experiencing too many problems, so the hiccup is probably on the side of your computer/tablet. You might want to reinstall the latest version of Adobe Reader, and make sure to open the forms in Adobe, not in your browser. .... https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance Downloading and Printing Immigration Forms We provide free fillable forms through our website in PDF format, which means you can type your answers directly on the form instead of printing a blank form and writing your answers by hand. For the best results, we suggest you download the PDF to your computer and complete the form using the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader rather than completing the PDF through your web browser. You can download Adobe Acrobat Reader for free from the Adobe website.

After saving the form to your computer, click on the form icon to reopen it in Adobe Acrobat Reader. In Google Chrome or Firefox, click the Download icon (second from the right) in the ribbon at the top of the page or press Ctrl (or Command) and S on your keyboard. After saving the form to your computer, click on the form icon to reopen it in Adobe Acrobat Reader. The Chrome extension might be on if, when using Google Chrome, you see this error message: “An error occurred. An error was encountered while processing the file.

In some circumstances, your case may be delayed or rejected if you use an outdated form. You can find the latest version any USCIS form on our Forms page.
  22. Will be easier to use a computer than a tablet. I strongly suggest you try to use a computer instead. Public libraries are good resources, if you do not have your own at home.
  23. Employers are not supposed to reverify. This thread, on the EAD card, has many references on actions you can take if your employers isn't clear on the rules. https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/551366-discrimination-ead-card/
  24. Congratulations on your recent marriage! A few answers: #4) To continue from question #2, the next question is “What is the country of issuance for the beneficiary’s Passport or Travel Document?” I’m guessing this is the United States correct? Or would it be Canada? Her passport has probably been issued by India. #8) So I’m in the Texas, United States, she’s in Toronto, Canada. I’m guessing we’d go with the U.S. Embassy or Consulate location since she’s outside of the United States correct? If so, I googled embassies/consulates and I typed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for that section. All interviews for spousal visas take place at the Consulate in Montreal, Quebec . #10) The biggest question of all, it is now asking to upload proof of marriage. So we don’t live together, don’t have any joint ownership of property, bank accounts/financial resources commingled, etc. Our marriage is legit, 100%. Other ideas: You can already add each other as beneficiaries to financial accounts (banking, retirement, insurance, etc.); most credit card providers will also let you add your spouse as an authorized user. Wills/living wills are also good documents to have, for immigration, but more importantly, in life.
