    Tourist visa

    Sounds a normal interview. You mean your mother applied and you helped I assume. What is a mother-in-title? And what would you be calling about?
  2. They will not charge below freezing and discharge below 15?f. Not an issue if you are say in the UK. Now where I am it is currently 19f and we are in a warm spell for this time of year, lots of snow melt. The BMS will prevent any harm to the battery and you can buy them with heat pads so more an issue of energy loss if you operate them in very cold areas depending on the level of insulation etc etc. But then diesel can freeze here. I saw this and if I could get one for what the Dealers are offering I would jump at it. But then I looked up what they would offer for my car as a trade in and it was peanuts.
  3. I thought this was quite interesting, short version LiFePO4 batteries going down to $56 a KW. Now they are heavier but do not burst into flames and have a longer number of cycles. You seem them more in stationary systems connected to PV systems. If you had a small car, which say needed 40kw for a decent range that would weigh about 800lbs for the pack I think and cost just over $2000. You can buy them now in the standard battery sizes, makes more sense to have car packs standardised. I have seen warranties for 7000 cycles down to 80% so if you charged once a day that would be 20 years, now of course they are likely to last more charges before they get to 80% and even then you still have 80%. The foics needs to move from the high end market.
  4. I think you are making a big mistake of you try and justify the last 4 ish years. Be grateful they did not approve your case without an interview.
  5. Yes Or amend the current filing Some prefer a fresh application, I have no view.
  6. You have 2 choices to remove conditions 1. On the basis of being in a marital union, what they are asking for as that was the basis you applied. 2. With a Divorce waiver. There is no option for your current situation
  7. I am not going to comment on what you have to do to keep in F1 status, something to discuss with the International Admissions Officer.
  8. Always a good idea to maintain your F1 status.
  9. Back when I did mine I walked out of the Consulate with my Passport and Visa. Now the improved service takes a week or so. I suppose it is theoretically possible to get them by Thursday but seems a long shot.
  10. 1. Will her job continue once she moves back to the US, if so evidence from her Employer, otherwise a Joint Sponsor. Expedite, what? On what basis. 2. I do not what she has, but she might want to update her DL, Bank Account, Credit Cards etc on her next trip home. Sometimes it is best for the USC to move first. I suppose how long the job process would take will depend on what she does, process takes about 18 months so quite a bit of time in a changing employment market.
  11. that is going to be a long road
  12. How was she brought here. Going to be a long time before she could adjust Why have you waited to sponsor her
  13. I self sponsored just seemed so much easier, the big one of course is the I 864
  14. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/mar/10/catherine-princess-of-wales-photo-after-surgery-released-for-mothers-day The first official photograph of the Princess of Wales after her abdominal surgery has been released to mark Mother’s Day. A picture of Catherine sitting on a chair surrounded by her three children was posted to the Prince and Princess of Wales’ social media accounts on Sunday morning, along with a message thanking well-wishers for their support. “Thank you for your kind wishes and continued support over the last two months,” the message read. “Wishing everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. C.” Happy Mothers Day to all Mothers and those who identify as such.
  15. This year’s Super Bowl viewership can be neatly divided into four segments: Those who like football and Taylor Swift, those who only like football, those who only like Taylor Swift, and those who like neither but are, for whatever reason, watching anyway.
  16. https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/dhs-announces-family-reunification-parole-process-for-ecuador Certain nationals of Ecuador who are beneficiaries of an approved Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative may be eligible to be considered for parole under the new process.

  17. I just noticed and I have to work! Just wondered what other people indigenous persons are doing to celebrate.

  19. https://www.cnn.com/2023/06/10/sport/brittney-griner-dallas-airport-harassment/index.html Brittney Griner, the WNBA star who was freed from Russia late last year after being wrongfully detained, was harassed Saturday by a man described as a social media “provocateur” at a Dallas airport. A source familiar with the incident told CNN that around 9:30 am CT, Griner was at the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport traveling with Phoenix Mercury teammates on their way to a game. Griner was confronted by the man who was yelling at her about “the Merchant of Death.” The confrontation got so heated that the man was tackled, and law enforcement was involved, according to the source. CNN has reached out to local law enforcement and the DFW airport about the incident. “The health and well-being of our players and staff are our top priority and we will always take every step within our power to protect player safety,” the statement said. “No one, regardless of identity, should ever fear for their safety. We will be coordinating with the WNBA on next steps,” it continued. Griner’s teammate, Brianna Turner, posted to Twitter on Saturday, saying, “Player safety while traveling should be at the forefront. People following with cameras saying wild remarks is never acceptable. Excessive harassment. Our team nervously huddled in a corner unsure how to move about. We demand better.” --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think I would recognise Bob, but any other member of the WNBA? I thought they would be delighted somebody recognised them.
  20. I had not really thought about this other than being told when checking out at a Supermarket now is the time to enter your Coupons, what Coupons? I would assume they were overcharging up front to pay for the rebate so look for something else.
