US Immigration from France

Hello,

So I have my interview in a month for a K-1 Visa.

So my fianc e doesn't meet the required money (by very close unluckily) but her dad is co-sponsoring us. We did the papers (I got them today through mail) but I think we messed up for her dad we filled the I-864 instead of an I-134 (we thought only the fianc had to do this form).


Can someone confirm or unconfirm that both sponsors have to do a I-134? It's pretty confusing online

Apparently the 864 is maybe for the "previous" AOS that Biden cancelled, etc...

Thank you !

Hello everyone,

I have a tricky question and no one seems to be able to give me an answer (neither my lawyer, my relocation company or even the CBP Q&A website).

I filed AOS from VWP (ESTA) on February 3rd 2021, after marrying my US Citizen husband. I haven t received the Notice of Receipt from USCIS (hopefully will get it within a couple of weeks now).

I would like to bring my personal effects/household goods from my previous home in France here to the US (where I now live). My question is: since I have no status until I ll get my green card, am I allowed to import my belongings? If yes, what document is acceptable to the US Customs to prove I am legally present in the US? (Will the Receipt notice of our I-485 be enough, or should I wait to receive my EAD at least, hence obtaining an SSN?)...

My relocation company says I can simply import them under my husband s name, but I m not so sure about this as he never lived with me in France and those goods were not yet technically part of the family household as I acquired them before we got married.

Beside, my passeport is still in my maiden name (I don t yet have any US ID with my married name on it, I only have our certified marriage certificate) but the Receipt Notice will be in my married name, and the relocation company says that it could create issues at Customs.

I wanna make sure to do the right thing here, and If this means I cannot import my belongings until I obtain my green card then so be it, I just need to know IF or WHEN will I be allowed to import them.

FYI, I emailed CBP and asked them the question. They said the question needs to be asked to the Port of Entry Customs team. I told my relocation company to contact them but they seem to only talk with their Customs Broker agent, not the CBP directly. This question has remained unsolved for 3 weeks now, I cannot find any answer to this specific situation anywhere on internet, I m desperate to understand what I can or cannot do about this import.

Has anyone been in the same situation and can advise me?...

Thanks

I've seen this everywhere about people posting having their status changes to AP after the interview. Basically we had our interview last week wednesday at Paris Embassy (before you ask we are milligan plantiffs), this week our status online went from Ready to Administrative Processing. I know alot of folks who say it will turn into Issued after... I guess my question is this.

Is it faster to have them ship it to our house or to pick it up at the Paris lock box. Is the Paris Lock box open on Saturdays? Did anyone else who interview in Paris have their status changed to AP and then issued, if so how many days after did you receive your passport?

We are trying to figure out if he will likely get his passport for the weekend. So that he can travel this weekend.

Hi Everyone,

Ugh I am overwhelmed looking at all the AOS paperwork- like I am sure we all are...

My Fiance and I are getting married in April and I was just looking over all the paper work ahead of time and I am very glad that I did.. however I do have a few questions

Our situation, I just graduated college May 2020 and Fiance Graduated August 2020- I found a job soon after graduation and I make $40k but since I only started half way in the year my 2020 tax return shows $25k which is above the limit but not by much... My Fiance started his full-time job in May as well and makes $40k also butt he also quit his job last month since he is moving to the US - and has never had to file taxes before because he's only ever worked internships and his parents own a 2nd apartment that my fiance was living in rent free when he was studying..

I guess where my worries come into play - They ask for my fiances tax returns but he obvs doesnt have any... and then also credit score which he also doesnt have but he also doesnt have any bills in his name since the apartment and everything attached to it was in his parents name..

Is this going to cause problems with the AOS paperwork. Anyone heard of someone in the same predicament? Also when the form of self-sufficiency asks for debts are they looking for US or foreign or either. He does have school loans abroad. Will his medical insurance abroad work for the form as well or should I wait to file the AOS until I can add him to my health benefits plan? And one last question- How will me changing my name after marriage affect the documents and by that I mean when I submit birth certificate or passport would they still be considered valid or do I have to wait until they have issued me new ones?

Thanks for reading and please feel free to add any advice you all have learned.. I am slowly reading thru past posts.
