Biabarida

Thank you. I was thinking that we would show that she had room and board provided for her so our 20000 USD would be enough for her not to be a financial burden on the US. Does that make sense? Our money is in separate bank accounts and kept in the US. But we are legally married. Will that be a problem if I have my financial information and a lot more money than her account? We don't have any property as we live on her families property. We don't pay rent or utilities. Her job is a yearly job that gets renewed every summer. She has two cars in her name. Insurance, our son is registered in a local school.... A bank account. What is some other information that we could use to prove ties? Photos of our home? Sam

Hello. Thank you in advance for your help with this question. Myself, my wife, and my kids are travelling to the US for 2 months. We have about 20,000 dollars in our bank account, but we want to be thorough. Can my parents fill out an I-134 that we then present to the CBP agent upon entry into the USA? They are providing us room and board while we are in the US. What documentation should they provide? Thanks you so much. You all have been much better help than the actual government. Once again....

Thanks. I didn't sign my wife up. The kids are us citizens. I'm just worried about how it will look to a border guard. But I also want my son to have access to quality healthcare.... that's why I did it but now I see that it creates a bad impression for the border guard. She has a long history of legally entering and leaving the US. We don't want to screw that up.

Thank you for your respectful response. I see now I made a mistake signing them up for Medicaid. I should have gotten them a private insurance. She comes with them in a few days so I think i will buy the private insurance and try to cancel the Medicaid.... that way she can present it to the border authorities. Do you have any suggestions for a next move? We aren't planning on immigrating to the US. We would like to just spend a few months a year in the states so my kids can meet and spend time w my family. And I work here whole they stay w family.

Hello. My wife is a Spanish National. I am US. I am planning on declaring dual residency for tax purposes. My wife and kids are visiting the states this summer for 8 weeks. I signed up myself and the kids for Medicaid. Now I'm worried that customs will say that Medicaid is a sign of intemt to immigrate on my wife's part. Is there any sense to my worry?

Thanks, Cathi. We have always followed the law and gone to lengths to communicate those attempts with CBP. I have a summer job in the States that we are hoping will allow our children to grow up knowing my grandparents better and also where I come from. We are small business owners in Spain and have enrolled my son in school. It's a little complicated because my wife is planning on taking a sabbatical next year to study for some exams, so she doesn't have a current contract, but we have no intentions of living in the US.

She applied for an esta and was approved! Question answered! Thanks everyone!

Boiler. Is that because we abandoned the process once it arrived at USCIS (the second step of the process)?

Hello. We are filling out our ESTA for my wife to come to the US. I am a US citizen and resident in Spain. She is a Spanish citizen ex resident of the US. We applied for a family resident visa with the 530 back when we were planning on living in the us and were accepted. Then we didn't move on with the process once it was referred to USCIS in 2019. We checked in using the website several times a year to keep it current, but eventually we must have started doing it wrong because we got a notice that over a year had passed since we had contacted them in October 2021. In April I sent a message formally withdrawing our petition but I have yet to hear back from them (backlog). I feel like my wife should be eligible for the ESTA because she hasn't been denied a visa since the case is still open and our withdrawal hasn't been processed. am I missing something?
