US Immigration from Hong Kong

Hello good day everyone. I guess this is the right site or page to ask because a lot of people in this site are knowledgeable or may have the same experience as mine.

I am a US citizen and also the petitioner. Were on the NVC stage now awaiting our case to be sent or forwarded to the US Embassy in Hong Kong were my beneficiary is going to have the interview. Anytime this week it might be in transit and case ready already because the routine visa services in Hong Kong are now operating normally.

My concern and issue is I was married before and legally divorced already and on my final divorce decree says I can obtain anytime I wish to use back my maiden name. When we started the process of the I-129F and now that I sent already the documents to my beneficiary to bring for the interview all the documents like the affidavit of support I am still using my married name because I haven t change yet and use my maiden name since the divorce.

Now that my vehicle registration is going to expired this end of the month I was planning to register and renew using my maiden name already and also my new home address. Also my

drivers license needs to be change to my maiden name and new address as they said it is the law here that it should match right?

After that I am planning to go to the social security to change and use my maiden name already and then change my US passport also to my maiden name. I am just planning and wanting to this already now so I will not be going back and fort anymore because when we get married I am not going to change anymore my family name.

Please I would really appreciate if somebody here can help me or enlighten me or guarantee me that this is not going to cause any problem on our K1 fianc visa process.

I am just kinda hesitant because do you think it may cause or affect during my beneficiary interview? Or maybe by the time my beneficiary enter the United States at the port of entry do they ran or check the background of us the petitioner? Wonder if they might see the documents of my beneficiary seeing that my name there is still my married name and I dont know if it will be seen that I may have use already my maiden name like that?

Please please help me somebody here who knew exactly and sure can confirmed. Thank you so much and God bless

Has anyone ever had an issue with their USCIS.gov account vanishing? Tried to login to mine today to just check on it and It's telling me incorrect username. So, tried to use "Forgot username" and it tells me invalid email, an account with this email doesn't exist. Odd because I specifically have emails from when I used this account to access our case and change the address on the application. Also, trying to create a new account using the same email address tells me the email is already in use.

Hello all,

Was excited to see that NVC had finally reviewed documentation that had been submitted. We had every submitted document switch to an "ACCEPTED" status along with what looked like 3 RFEs. The first two seemed to be auto-generated related to AOS income (Please submit W2; Please submit Evidence of Income). This was followed by the third message and what I believe to be the actual outcome (Case does not meet AOS requirements; recommend joint sponsor and Consular Officer will make decision at interview). There was then another one that specifically agreed with my justification for not having a document (document will be sent directly to Consulate by Authority).

No issue with understanding the message itself with regards to sponsorship - we tried to see if they would accept, but knew we would likely need joint sponsor - that's already arranged luckily.

My real question is, having gotten these 4 messages in very short succession, and understanding that the first two were related to assessing AOS Qualifications and the third to state that a determination was made and that Consular Officer will have final say on what we prepare/present, I don't THINK I need to take further action in the CEAC system at this time. I believe that now I should be waiting for DQ notification... However, since I have not gotten such communication and it has been a week, wanted to check if this is normal for NVC. I'm guessing I will just experience silence for a few weeks until it gets around to notifying us of DQ/upcoming consular steps, but would appreciate any input someone may be able to offer.

Again, we've prepped all the joint sponsorship stuff and know, based on NVC communications, that AOS related decision will be made at the Interview. Just making sure the two seemingly irrelevant RFEs (auto-generated based on AOS assessment I believe) aren't hanging and waiting for feedback for us before we move towards DQ.

Thanks for any insight!

Hi, guys. I'm trying to help a friend of mine with his K-1 visa process. His fiance' in Indonesia needs help obtaining a police clearance from Singapore, but everything I've seen said it could take 6 months to process and that there's no guarantee they would even process it.

She doesn't have 6 months. Her DS-160 was recently submitted.

Hey guys, so because of the pandemic, it takes longer time to process AOS & EAD applications. Since I don't have a work permit, I haven't been able to work in the past few months. In order to minimize my anxiety of unemployment and increase my chance of getting employed once I get EAD, I have been taking online courses to upgrade myself. I was wondering if there is anything else I could do to increase my chance of getting hired, other than doing online courses? Can you guys share some of the things you do/ join to prepare yourself in a new job market (i.e. USA)? Is there any good resources for career changers? I also heard that there are free resources in community college for new immigrants. Is that real? Thank you all for sharing!
