Hi, my question is in the title but I will give more context. I'm a British citizen married to a USC and we filed our standalone i-130 in November 2023. When he had to leave the UK after we got married we couldn't stand being apart so we decided that I would move to Tijuana, Mexico and he would cross every day to be with me. He works and will maintain his address in San Diego. I'll be moving to Mexico as a temporary resident by family. (Previously we thought of us each visiting for long periods but that has it's own issues) So that leaves which embassy i'll be doing my American interview through. On the i-130 I put I would be going through the London, UK embassy because that was the plan at the time. But now I will be living in Mexico I just want to be 1000% sure can I still have my interview in London? I have a flexible ticket back so I can easily be there. It's about 1.5 years longer going through either embassy in Mexico compared to the UK. and BONUS QUESTIONS: when I do move to TJ i'm thinking i'll need to let USCIS know. How do I do that? or is it only by the NVC stage i have to submit the documents? We had an extensive amount of evidence up until this point. I've submitted unsolicited evidence before, in this situation should I put through more? It's an odd one for my husband as he will have an address in SD and in TJ and we'll be getting a joint Mexican bank accounts together which was not possible because we lived in separate countries. Great bona fide evidence but is it odd he's living in 2 places at once? Or just he's visiting me or what? It's hard to get my head round. I'm not worried about him having loose ties to the US but should I be? Thank you and hope I put this in the right category although my post has kind of evolved with these extra questions.

Hi everyone. My fiancé and I are K1 filers. We should be getting our NOA2 any day now. I’m Canadian and he’s American. I have many friends and family telling us that we could’ve gotten married and lived in the US without doing this whole process. However, I feel like we did the right and honest thing by choosing a method “by the book”. But I’m curious, are people really able to use the visitor visa/visa waiver to get married and adjust status without leaving the US? Also, on a spousal visa… how long are you able to visit/live with a spouse in the US at a time before getting your green card? I would love to be able to answer how different methods work compared to the k1. Thanks!!

Hi everyone, I (petitioner) filed for my husband's CR-1 this past April so we are still waiting for I-130 to get approved. I started a job in April but the pay hasn't been very good and I am looking to switch jobs to one with better pay (way above the FPL). Will this affect our application when we get to the NVC stage? Or depending on the length of time between me starting a new higher paying job and the date we submit documents to NVC it will be alright? Basically, how many paystubs are needed from a current job at the NVC stage after your I-130 is approved? I have my tax returns for the past three years, but I made foreign income because I was living abroad. However, it was still technically above the FPL. Do you think I will probably need to get a joint sponsor in this case due to having foreign income from 2019-2021 and switching jobs in 2022 in the U.S.? My lawyer made it sound like getting a joint sponsor is a lot of work paperwork wise, but I do have someone I can ask to be a joint sponsor if necessary. Thank you for any help or suggestions!
