US Immigration from England

Hello,

My partner and I are currently in a bit of a panic, attempting to figure out our next steps.

Medical Examination at London Embassy on 12/29/2023 (Dec 29th):

During his medical exam, he was asked if he ever had mental health issues or a history of self-harm. He indicated he had a history of self-harm from when he was 15 years old (he is now 32 years old). The medical doctor asked him to have his general doctor (GP) submit a statement that he is not a risk to himself or others. Once this statement was received, then the embassy doctor would submit the medical exam directly to the embassy for the final interview.

Current Issue

The two active GPs at his local medical practice have been on holiday/vacation or booked since the medical exam, but he was able to get in today to see one of them. We figured the GP would sign off and we would be on to the final interview without issue, however, this GP is moderately new to his medical history (~2 years) and said he would like to have at least a month maybe two of monitoring of my partner before he would sign off. He indicated that he personally, he doesn't think my partner is a threat to himself or others but because his medical license is at stake if he signs off on it and something were to happen in the US (he is concerned about US and gun violence) that he would lose his license. My partner and I are absolutely shocked and shattered, especially with his history of mental health issues being over 16 years ago.

Where are we currently:

I129-F Notice Type: Approval Notice

Valid from 09/27/2023 to 01/26/2024

K1 Visa Interview at London Embassy is scheduled for 02/08/2024 (Feb 8th)

My partner is currently calling to have his interview date moved.

We have attempted to contact the USCIS contact center without luck to request an extension of the I129-F for a month or two from now until his GP finally decides to sign off- however I've only been able to receive an automated voice response without any human/representative. Is anyone aware of a similar situation or has any advice?

Thanks,
B

Hello, I hope I'm posting this in the right topic.

I have a few general questions about potential immigration to the US. I have wanted to move to the US for the last few years and have decided this year to attempt.

My questions are -

What would be the best route for me to take? I don't have a university degree however I am considering getting one if it improves my chances of immigrating.

Would I be able to work in the US on a B2 visa? I have seen on Google that you can only apply and interview for jobs on that visa and nothing about working on the B2 visa.

Would the Green Card Diversity lottery be a viable option? I am a British citizen, I have lived in England all my life and currently hold a British and Polish passport.

Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Hello,

My partner and I received our I-797 Notice of Action for I129-F and we are concerned because our interview date at the London Embassy is outside of our Notice Approval Validity.

I129-F Notice Type: Approval Notice

Valid from 09/27/2023 to 01/26/2024

Medical Examination completed at London Embassy on 12/29/2023 (Dec 29th)

K1 Visa Interview at London Embassy is scheduled for 02/08/2024 (Feb 8th)

Our concern is that the 129-F approval is valid only until 01/26/2024 but the interview is scheduled for 02/08/2024. We have attempted to contact the USCIS contact center without luck to request an extension. Is anyone aware of a similar situation?

Thanks,

Hi all,

My wife has been in the UK with me since Jan 2023, we were married in May 2023 and she has remained here on a UK spouse visa so that we could continue to be together while waiting on the visa process as we knew it would be over a year, we've been making sure we have all of the required documents ready when we need to submit the affidavit of support, we're using her savings and my assets to cover the financial requirements as she isn't working in the UK, one of the documents we need is proof of domicile, before moving here my wife lived with her parents in the US, she will submit a US tax return when due in 2024 and has a US driving license, passport and bank account but how would we prove proof of domicile?

Thanks all

Derek

Hello everyone.

I am posting here after a long time because I have questions.

I entered the USA on a k1 visa in 2010 and I am on my 2nd G.C. at this point.

I was divorced in 2020, before I renewed my Green card for the second 10 year stint to start.

I still have all of the paperwork from the immigration filing process, copies of everything that my ex filed. Supporting paperwork and everything.

I don't intend on becoming a citizen at this time and will keep renewing cards unless something changes. I have a new partner, whom has two children from a previous marriage. We have been in a relationship for 3 years.

Do I 'need' to keep all of the old paperwork? Original applications, lifting of conditions, etc. Is there anything related to the Green card that I need to do? I have gainful employment, pay my taxes. I'm just not married any more.

Do I have to worry that I'm not married any more? I was married for 10 years and have been here in the states for 13 total.

Also I'd like to change my user name...
