I recently entered the US on September 30 on a K1 visa. I have bank accounts with TD and RBC. When calling them to update my address, I was also asked if I was a resident of Canada for tax purposes. This is where I am a bit confused. Since K1 visa holders are considered non-resident aliens in the United States until they get a green card, AND because I lived and worked in Canada most of the year, am I still a resident of Canada for tax purposes? Any insight is appreciated.

Hello!! I did some searching online regarding this topic but didn t find anything conclusive. VJ has always been so helpful.he was born in the Philippines but is an American citizen and NOT a Philippine citizen. My uncle died recently and we need his birth certificate to transport his remains to the Philippines. Do we get his birth certificate from the Philippines? Not a report of birth abroad of a US citizen right?

Here s a loaded question regarding the Affidavit of Support: I understand you need 3 years of tax transcripts plus W2s. My husband is self-employed, which in this case I understand they require your tax transcripts and 1040s? That said, my husband s income isn t high enough to sponsor me. My current job is being transferred to the US once my greencard is in hand, as the company I work for is incorporated in the USA as well as Canada, with US operations. As I will be self sponsoring from a financial standpoint, would his 1040s still be required, or should tax transcripts to show he doesn t qualify be sufficient? Thank you!

I am a Canadian citizen engaged to a US citizen. I am currently in the US as a visitor (no visa as Canadians don't need a visa to enter typically). Can my fiance and I start the application while I am here and will I be able to stay the 180 days Canadians are usually allowed while the process starts? I see on the application it asks about a I-94 record number. Do I need something like that if I want to start the process while visiting. I have been searching online for answers and everything is really unclear. If anyone has first hand experience or knows for certain please let me know. Thanks in advance!

I am still waiting for my green card to be approved (I-485/1-130 pending). I have a valid EAD and my current US employer sponsored me to take a corporate training course which subsequently enrolled me to a US university. Does anyone know if this will jeopardize my AOS application (marriage-based)? The employer is paying 100% of the tuition. I was told in the past that enrolling in a US college or university while your green card is pending is not allowed. Does anyone know or can find anything official about this? I googled it and cannot find any so hoping to get someone who has direct experience or knowledge about this. Thanks. Note: I adjusted from B2 (Tourist Visa)
