US Immigration from Canada

Since early February, when I received package 4, I've been waiting for a time slot to pay the fees and schedule an appointment. My fianc e and I have tried contacting them several times for clarification, but we haven't received any concrete answers other than that they receive a high volume of applications and prioritize certain types of visa applications. Today, we received a response from them saying that we must pay the processing fees first before proceeding to the next step! Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone experienced a similar situation? Any advice would be welcome.

I lost my job yesterday and my husband's consulate interview is on May 29th. I've taken this as an opportunity to visit my husband to help him prepare and get ready to move to the US after his interview. Do we need to update the NVC or consulate about the change in income?

We already have a co sponsor who is well above the poverty guidelines and have shown they have the income to support my husband if needed when we submitted the AOS. I guess I just want to see if anyone has any advice or similar experiences. I'd hate for my husband to be rejected at the interview because of me.

My husband and I are both living in Canada with our two kids and about to submit our affidavit of support. Our lawyer insists we have to say I m living in the USA at my husband s interview but says I don t have to actually live there - just use my parent s address. But we refuse to lie. So we assumed I will have to move there with the kids before his interview.

Chat Gpt says we can instead just show that we have intent to reestablish domicile after his visa is approved and move there after with the evidence we have:

-He has a letter from his US employer saying they will hire him directly instead of through an intermediary once he has his visa.

-I have a US bank account (from before I came to Canada) that we ve been moving money over into,

-my voter registration is still active.

- I intend to get my drivers license and moving quotes, and hopefully have a rental house lined up before the interview.

Our lawyer insists if we say I m still in Canada that they will deny his visa. Is that true? Do I have to move ahead with the kids, or do we have enough evidence for the interview to show that we intend on moving after he gets his visa? We don t want to blow it and get a denial

I have been studying for my N-400 interview. I have watched some immigration lawyers on YouTube relaying questions that their clients were asked at the interview. One that I have seen twice now is that the officer asks the applicant to state their Alien # and their SSI #. Was anyone who had their N-400 interview asked this?

We got our interview date today for May 29. My husband lives in Alberta Canada which has no approved doctors so he will have to go to another province. My husband wants to go to the doctor in Vancouver since its the closest, but I dont know how long it takes to get the medical exam results and if it would be easier for him to go to one in Montreal a day or two before his interview so he doesn't have to hop back and forth between provinces. Any fellow Alberta residents or canadians have suggestions about doing their medical exams?
