US Immigration from China

Sorry to hijack this thread a little. My wife has been here, in America, for 3 years. She has a Permanent Residence Green Card valid through 6/9/2032. She went back for her mother's funeral and is now getting ready to come back. At this point she's been in China 5 weeks, will be 6 weeks when she returns. The passport is good until 2029. All she needs is her passport and green card correct?

A resident friend filed an I-130, Petition for Alien Relative for her adult alien son many years ago.

The case was updated this month to:

What does this mean?

Hello everyone,

I'm an applicant for a K1 visa, and my interview and medical examination are scheduled to take place at the U.S. Consulate General in Guangzhou, China. I've been reviewing the official consulate website, but I'm hoping to get some additional insights and practical tips from those who have recently gone through this process.

Could anyone who has completed their K1 medical exam and interview in Guangzhou, China, please share your step-by-step experience?

We are trying to reach out to the consulate to delay our interview. Has anyone successfully got in contact with the consulate for such matters? It s been 4 days and they haven t got back to us. The website they gave us has also been impossible to get onto (https://www.usvisascheduling.com), we tried every internet and device possible.

I am sponsoring my wife's AoS (filed 6 months ago with I-864 submitted) and I recently left my job to pursue starting a new business, which means it'll take a while to re-establish my income, and I am eligible for Washington's Medicaid while without income (based on discussing with the reps from the WA health exchange).

As the queue is 18 months long, I expect when the interview is scheduled, either my business is able to generate income, or I will have a new job. Even without income, I have enough savings/assets to meet USCIS's financial requirements, so I am not concerned there, but want to confirm the following:

1. when do I need to re-file I-864? i.e. will USCIS ask for update at the interview scheduling time, or do I need to keep updating USCIS whenever my income situation change (which seems unlikely)?
2. would taking advantage of Washington's Medicaid (just me - my wife isn't eligible) cause concerns for USCIS to think I might have issues meeting my financial obligation? More than likely I will no longer be on it when the interview schedule time comes, but want to check if USCIS will be concerned about job/health plan history while in queue

Thank you very much for the advice.
