My girl friend is applying again for a tourist visa in Colombia, our plan is that I'm going there to get plastic surgery and she's travelling to US with me to stay for a week.

Do you recommend that she adds me as her travel companion on the DS-160 and saying that's the purpose of her travel? Helping me on the trip and visiting for a week?

She was denied a couple months ago under section 214(B). She said she was staying with me but we didn't add that we were travelling together or my surgery, do you think this would help her case or could it look bad that she's not only staying a here but travelling with me?

I might travel with my kids (6 and 8yo), would it be a stronger case to say she's helping me because I had surgery and travelling with the kids? In that case, should I add them as travelling companions as well?

TIA!

Hi, I am filing N600 for my child under derived citizenship and will appreciate any advise or inputs who have filed N600. Appreciate any help or suggestions.

1. For the Port of Entry and Date section, should I list the child s very first entry into the United States or the entry prior to filing for lawful permanent residency, or the most recent entry as a lawful permanent resident?

2. Does the current online form provide an option to upload evidence of physical and legal presence? I came across forum discussions suggesting that there was no evidence section available while filing online specifically to upload physical and legal presence, and would like to know how recent applicants have handled uploading this information.

3. USCIS field office that granted LPR: Is it the office where the interview happened?

I'm filling out the DS-260 for my current immigrant visa case based on the approved I-130.
Previously, a different U.S. citizen filed a K-1 fianc visa petition (Form I-129F) for me. It was approved by USCIS, sent to NVC, but I never submitted the DS-160, and the case eventually expired due to inaction.
The DS-260 asks: "Has anyone ever filed an immigrant visa petition on your behalf?" (or similar wording about immigrant petitions).
Since the K-1 involved Form I-129F (a nonimmigrant petition), not an I-130 or other immigrant petition, I believe the answer is "Yes" only for the current I-130, and I do not need to disclose the prior K-1 as a previous "immigrant visa petition." On DS 260.
However, there are other sections on prior U.S. visa applications, petitions, or immigration history where the K-1 might need to be mentioned.
Note : on current I 130 for question Has anyone else ever filed a petition for the beneficiary .i answer yes to that question because the wording was not asking about non immigration or immigration but on DS 260 question wording is way different (Has anyone ever filed an immigration visa petition on your behalf)now I am confused on this question
Thank you for your guidance.
Best regards,
