US Immigration from Cambodia

Hey y'all!

We are BRAND new to this whole process and I'm so sorry if this has been asked a million times, but my searching in the forums isn't yielding the answers I'm wondering about.

My husband is an USC; and we want to bring his sister here. She is married, but we only want to bring her here. We also want to bring her 17 year old daughter here.

Questions:

1. Sister has four kids----but we only want to bring her oldest daughter. Do we need to list all 4 kids on the application?

2. How does it work to attach the daughter to our I-130? Or do we have to wait until the priority date comes up?

Yes, I know our niece might've aged out by this point. Sigh. We still want to bring sister here.

Thank you all, so much, for any info and for this awesome community.

Wife got a biometrics appointment notice in the mail.

Appointment is for next week. In Nevada.

We're in Rhode Island.

Google maps lists a USCIS Providence field office in Johnston, RI and a USCIS Application Support Center in Cranston, RI.

Can she just walk into one of those at the appointed date and time, and if so, which one?

Has anyione else had this happen?

Filed I-751 for my wife on October 3.

On December 9, saw her online myuscis account was updated to say:

"Case Was Updated To Show Fingerprints Were Taken

As of December 9, 2022, fingerprints relating to your Form I-751, Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence, Receipt Number XXX have been applied to your case." No mailed paper notice.

On December 10 submitted change of address from Las Vegas to Houston and got email confirmation.

Then on December 17 USCIS sends a mailed notice to our old Las Vegas address with appointment to take biometrics in Las Vegas next month. Code 3. Her online MyUSCIS account doesn't reflect this.

Please make it make sense.

Does anyone have first hand experience using zoom wedding and spouse from Cambodia arriving usa ? I understand Philippines other applicants it has worked , but have yet to read Cambodia success story /or failure . Seems no one tried it yet (I hope I'm wrong I haven't read up recently)

Reviving this post, apologies if maybe I should start my own post, but I'm planning on doing a Zoom wedding with my Cambodian fianc next month. I'm nervous at the lack of anecdotes around the Zoom marriage in Cambodia specifically... I have read many success stories, but knowing that it may be more strict in Cambodia is giving me a little bit of pause.

My partner and I are planning on getting married via Utah Zoom ceremony as soon as possible. We had previously submitted an I-129F (K-1) but are now planning on withdrawing it and submitting an I-130 for CR-1. I have a few questions before we do this.

• I was married (but separated for a long time) until just a few months ago. The finalized date of my divorce, per my divorce decree, was in October 2022. Does that pose any problems (or red flags) if my new partner I were to get married only 2 months later (December 2022) via Zoom?
• If we go this route, the location of our marriage would be Provo, Utah, I believe. Will this be a problem (or red flag) when they see that he has never been to the USA before, but we were married in Utah?
• Is it a problem (or red flag) if the beneficiary is currently unemployed?
• We have never lived together, but we did buy a condo together in his country in October. It s a new build and it ll be a couple of years before it s actually finished. We intend to submit the paperwork as bonafide evidence. Any issues with this? Should we submit other evidence of bonafide marriage, just in case? If so, I think it d just have to be sworn statements because we don t have any of the other suggested items.
• Will I need certified copies of court documentation for criminal records at any point in the CR-1 process? I know it s not needed at the time of application, but what about at the time of interview? I don't have any original certified copies, only photocopies.

Thanks in advance!
