US Immigration from Canada

Hi! I read we need a police criminal record check for the K1 interview - there are a few different types of police checks. Does anyone know which one to get and what that process is like?

I am in Canada and Montreal embassy is super backed up, such that wait times are in the order of 9 months to more than a year.

Is it possible to request an interview in another country that is not backlogged? Seems logical to enable sharing of workloads between embassies...

Hey everyone,

it looks like May has been hard on a lot of people from around the world in the IR-1 and CR-1 category. It looks like some countries didn t even do IL/CR-1 IL s this month I figured it would be a good idea to have a place where this information was stored.

If you, or someone you know (tag them), got an IL letter, please post below:

Date IL received - Consulate or Embassy Name - DQ Date - Interview Date

My fiance is in Canada and legally changed his last name quite a few years ago. All of his documentation has his new last name including his birth certificate. Does he need to provide his name change paperwork? On the application, I did put his previous last name as it asked for any other names. Thanks in advance!

I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, but I m incredibly confused and not sure where to post it.

My husband and I concurrently filed the I130/I485 in December 2019. My husband received his approval and green card at the end of February this year and started working here in the U.S in April.

We have been trying to find him health insurance through the Marketplace website, but couldn t really find something within our budget.

In the mail today, he received a packet of information from a Medicaid insurance company welcoming him as a member.

He didn t apply for Medicaid and, please correct me if I m wrong, but I didn t think he was able to have Medicaid given his current status.

Is my thinking correct? I can t really find an exact answer anywhere else, so I m trying to figure out if he is allowed to have this insurance or if we need to immediately stop it.

Again, I apologize if this isn t the right place to post.
