I would think they are looking at whether there is a Misrepresentation charge. Did you do this with a lawyer?

We can include the Welsh for that amount!

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/california-reparations-discrimination-housing-policing-b2310139.html Black residents of California could be owed $800bn in reparations for generations of over-policing, disproportionate incarceration and housing discrimination, economists have told a state panel considering compensation payments. The preliminary estimate is more than 2.5 times larger than the state’s $300bn annual budget. The recommended figure does not include an additional $1 million suggested per older Black resident for health disparities they may have suffered resulting in the shortening of their average life span. Nor does the total take into account the prospect of compensating people for property unjustly ceased by the government or Black businesses otherwise devailed, two further harms the Reparations Task Force assigned to look at the problem concluded the state had perpetuated. In their report, the consultants advised the state task force to “err on the side of generosity” and consider a down-payment with more money to come as more evidence becomes available. “It should be communicated to the public that the substantial initial down-payment is the beginning of a conversation about historical injustices, not the end of it,” they said. I have not been able to find any discussion of reparations to other marginalized groups..

I was watching CNN coverage and I lost count at the number of times he was misgendered and dead named. Now by the evening they had started just referring to the Shooter but reverted again yesterday. Even MSNBC and NPR were doing the same.

Looking at 20 years for F3, then Citizenship etc then more than 20 years again, so when we get into 50 years plus I give up.

Genie's do not go back into bottles.

Minor Children, not married and over 21.

F3 Visa so he files for him and Spouses only come into it when the Priority Date is current. I 130 When he gets his US Citizenship he can likewise file for his married children.

Seems to be fairly quick but not something I have kept an eye on.

I assumed he is not a member of the armed forces?

You only have to be in the US as long as it takes to do Biometrics

Some good news

Most cases are pretty much nothing, I think my interview was 15 minutes, job done. It is waiting to get the interview, your file reviewed that takes time.

I have seen all sorts of odd processing times, I am not sure 1 month is normal, why it would be so quick for CAA. To my knowledge that is not how they operate.

Absolutely true but in the case and some others I can see competing interests. Seems all her family is here so not likely there is anybody she wishes to sponsor. Cuban Adjustment Act route means OP does not need to be her sponsor.

The 129F will be left to expire I do not know your case, do not know why it was returned. So just commenting on the Misrep aspect, and yes a waiver could apply to a K1 as well as a IR1

K1 has many many disadvantages.

5 months for a I 130 would be very optimistic, you can see peoples processing times on here, obviously looking forward will always be a bit of a guess. Misrepresentation is assessed by the Consulate, it is waiverable and if the Consulate refuses the visa there would be the opportunity of filing an I 601.

The Guides cover most of this, as far as leaving then the issue is coming back, F1 is a non immigrant visa so you need to marry file and obtain AP to travel.

I found one Law Practice and this is all they do, so recently.

He may under the I 864 but they have not got that far yet.

I am sure it was mentioned that he does not currently have a financial responsibility for his wife's 2 children, adopting them will see him properly hosed.

It should be a lot higher just for inflation

Plenty of people have used HP to come here and adjust, you just need to qualify for it, no reason is required.
