    DV Lottery of K1 Visa - Can I file for both?
    I applied for the DV lottery 2025 and hope to be selected this year. My fiancé and I discovered that there is a fiancé visa for the USA. Do you think if we apply for the K1 visa but are selected for the DV lottery that we can stop the fiancé visa process? What are the timelines and options here :)?

    Confused about steps after marriage
    My fiancee arrived last month on K1 fiance visa and we got married yesterday. It seems from what I have seen online that I made a mistake by not getting SSN prior to marriage? I am going to the SSN office on Monday to gather more information... also worried about employment authorization and travel authorization(s). Thanks for any insights!

    Tourist visa cancelled by CBP agent.  Can we still get a CR1 or K1 Visa?
    Upon my gf's most recent arrival, her tourist visa was cancelled at the airport due to her frequent visits last year and suspicion of working here. She was denied entry and sent back same day. Is a CR1 or K1 visa process an option still? I would appreciate any advice or tips you can provide!

    Hello all,

    I already read some "start here FAQ's" but I was not able to find the answer. Maybe some of you that has better knowledge can help me out here.

    A woman (23 years old), US citizen wants to apply to her husband. He came with a tourist visa and it is out of status. They are married for over 1 year here in US.

    What are the forms needed to apply?

    IR1 interview after a refused K1, READY status after the interview

    Hello guys, I hope you're all doing well.

    I had my interview at the US Consulate in Casablanca almost two weeks ago, it went well, and the consulate officer told me that everything was fine and that he just has to review the previous case (a K1 petition that my wife filed out for me before we got married. The interview was on 2019, and it was refused after an administrative processing.)

    Now for this current interview, they have kept my passport and told me that this review would take one to two weeks. Whenever I check the status through the CEAC website, I see READY, and there have been 4 updates so far.

    I'm wondering if any of you have gone through a similar experience before.

    Thank you.

    US Green Card IR1 application NVC Montreal

    US Green Card IR1 application had my interview at the NVC US embassy in Montr al on January 11,
    2024. The officer indicated approval, but I was given Form 221g stating no additional documents were needed. My passport was requested on March 6 and delivered on March 12. However, since then, I haven't received any updates on my application status. I'm eager for any information on the current status and whether further documentation is required. Has anyone else experienced a similar situation? Is this common? And what are the usual processing times? After nearly two years in this process, this delay is disheartening. Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello! Now that my fiance's visa interview is near, we are looking ahead at the requirements for the AOS packet, as we'd like to get it done ASAP once we're married! I just have a couple of questions on the EAD form:

    Part II, Question 18: List all countries where you are currently a citizen or a national.

    Will he be considered a US national? Or should he only list the UK (where he is immigrating from)?

    Part II, Question 24: Immigration Status at Your Last Arrival (would be K-1 Fiance)

    Part II, Question 25: Your Current Immigration Status

    Would question 25 still be K-1 Fiance? Or is there a more suitable response since we will be filing the EAD with our AOS packet?

      Considering how quickly they've been processing EB visas lately (at a rate of 2 months per month), I don't believe you're completely screwed. If your new DQ is in March-April, you might still receive an interview letter within 6 months or possibly even sooner.
      Best of luck!
