US Immigration from Australia

Hello,

We are planning on filing AOS, EAD, AP together. My fianc will be working once he receives his EAD. If he were to receive Medi-Cal during the 6.5 to 8 months of waiting period for his EAD, would it affect his AOS? I'm currently finishing up my last year of college and won't be working. We have a good amount of savings in the bank, and we are able to get a co-sponsor who will meet the income requirement if needed.

It seems as long as it is less than 12 months, he wouldn't be considered a public charge?

Hey guys,

My partner doesn't work and we are relying on her Mother being our co-sponsor. My partner has never filed any US taxes either. Her Student visa here in Australia ends at the end of 2021 and she will be returning back to the states then, we are hoping that the visa will approved by then (yes high hopes i know). I've seen heaps of people being denied their K1 visa even though the co-sponsor earns double over the threshold and i'm stressing as i do not want to let this happen in the process.

What is the likely chance that this will happen to us? I know the Sydney Embassy accepts co-sponsors although i know that the form I-134 has almost no legal weight which is often the denial, which could leave me potentially ineligible for the visa. My partner has no cash assets or any what so ever. She relies on her mum and I support her here as I work as a nurse.

I would really prefer as much advice on K1 visa or any other solution about getting married together in the states.

I understand the CR1 route Co-sponsor form is legally binding, would this be a better option? I just don t want to be declined and have to start the process over again. Just want the safest option.

Thanks so much for everyone's amazing advice.

Hi,

I was curious where people in the Brisbane area went to get their US Passport size photos taken. Thanks!!

I've explained in my previous posts about not going down the CR-1 visa due to cultural and family reasons. I would really prefer as much advice on K1 visa topics or any other solution about getting married together in the states. Thanks so much for everyone's amazing advice.

Hi all,

Time flies and it's almost the time to renew my 2 years green card.

One simple question, on I-751 form, it asks about all children. So my son was born after I got my 2 years green card, and he has already had his US passport. So in this case, do I still need to put his name on I-751 form? And the select "child not applying with me"? Do I just need to pay the biometric fee for myself only, plus the application fee?

In addition, the form on USCIS website expires on 12/31/2019? And we can still use this version, since there's no update?

Thank you!
