  1. This is such a bad idea. CBP are very well trained at detecting things like this. What if they call your employer to verify your employment? What if they see you have a 2 week trip booked and they limit your trip to 2 weeks? Then you must return home with no job? No one on here is going to condone or support your plan. I suggest you plan a trip for 2 weeks, return to your home county, continue to work until you move to the U.S. on your K-1 visa. Good luck
  2. She must answer the questions honestly, what do you have concerns about?
  3. It does happen. It happened to me. If you do a search on visa journey you can easily find stories. I do not mention this to scare you, but to prepare you. Only US citizens are guaranteed entry into the US. Good luck
  4. Hi, good afternoon Could you please give us some more details. What was the reason for the exclusion order - to the US or to Canada? How long ago? What country is this 'friend' originally from? Good luck
  5. I went through the student visa process for university. However, elementary and middle schools are different. Have you contacted the school (typically private) that the children will attend? Public schools do not offer F-1 visas so the private school should provide you with more information. Good luck
  6. Oh dear, you cannot tell people to stop posting, you read/reviewed the TOS right? I believe you are very skilled, I do not think it is acceptable to demand cases from a public site, when then are so many nuances involved. Good luck
  7. I'm sorry, but entrance to the US is never guaranteed for visitors. The CBP knows better and may have been trying to placate you. Please understand this important aspect. Out of curiosity, why did you overstay? Good luck
  8. You may want to post this in the Canada forum, maybe a moderator will move this!! good luck
  9. Sadly no, it is a long process to buckle up and start reading the entire process for Canadians. Like what will you do for health care once you move to the US? The only consulate that does visa interviews is Montreal - are you prepared for that travel? Do you have your long form birth certificate and vaccines updated? Good luck
  10. Montreal - as powerpuff said. If you put any other consulate you will be directed to Montreal. We put Toronto and they routed us to Montreal Good luck
  11. Curiosity is killing me, do you have the link? Good luck
  12. Canadians do not need a tourist visa. I was denied entry to the US twice, then admitted for a very short trip. But each situation is different. I do wish you luck - but do be prepared for another denial, as SalishSea already stated, no CO can 'wipe' the denial off the record. And if asked at interview #2, he must tell the truth.
  13. Sadly, the cat is out of the bag. From your description, it is likely the CO thought you were paying him for the recording session and thus unauthorized work. But if you have previously done work together in the US, and you have paid him - he has worked without authorization. What is the wait time for a B visa interview in S. Africa? I know for many countries that it is tremendously long wait. To answer your question - I was denied entry twice to the US and then admitted as a tourist. But what has changed since the last interview? Good luck
  14. The answer to these question is the truth - nothing more or less. So what WAS the purpose of her trip when she was denied her tourist visa? What HAS changed (aside from being married as Skyyy stated)? And it is unclear, are you interviewing for the Cr1 or a tourist visa?
  15. I am sorry for your situation. But I think the consensus here is. 1 - discontinue your catholic charity lawyers. 2 - work with your doctor and focus on your health and ways you CAN travel. Covid should not be preventing travel, even cancer patients and HIV+ patients travel. 3 - It is time to stop dwelling on what happened in the past and it is time to get to work. Your current path is not feasible and the consulate (even if USCIS approves the petition) is unlikely to approve the visa in my opinion. 4 - of course the lawyer told you it was possible to appeal your current situation. He would like more money to do it for you. Then if/when the visa is denied, he'll simply walk away with your money. Good luck
  16. Your intent was determined at the Point of Entry - and since you were admitted, it appears you were perceived not to have immigrant intent. Have you quit your UK job?
  17. Not the point of this topic, but have you thought of a marriage or fiancé visa? The point of this post is about a work visa. First you'll need to find a job in the US that is willing to sponsor you for a work visa. What formal qualifications do you have besides a coursera certificate (not sure that carries tremendous weight in the job search arena). So start looking for jobs in the city/region you wish to relocate to, determine if those positions will sponsor you for the work visa, then get the company's lawyers to start the process for a work visa. Good luck
  18. Agree, as always, with Boiler. The exam she will need to take is based on the university/college she wishes to attend as each will have their different admissions requirements. Have you researched that? She will also not be able to work more than 20 hours a week and it must be on campus with approval from the DSO. Good luck
  19. This sounds awfully like you are intentionally planning to spontaneously decide to remain in the US after you enter on a non-immigrant visa.
  20. I'm very sorry to hear this happened to you. I was denied entry to the US twice so I know how terrible they make you feel. Why was the ESTA denied? It sounds like your children have LOTS of ties to Germany, but sadly, they aren't your wife's ties. What can your wife (and your wife alone) show that she must return? Does she have a job? responsibilities in Germany? Good luck
  21. You should certainly present how you will pay for this surgery or document insurance. Good luck
  22. I hope this helps https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/wait-times.html Good luck
