US Immigration from Lithuania

Hello again friends,

My K1 Visa was just sent out to the embassy in my fiancee's EU country.

What steps or forms should we fill out now?

Should I fill out my I-134 or should she fill out her DS-160 now?

Any updates on Schengen embassies? Our case is still sitting at the NVC after 5 months... This is ridiculous.

Our case hasn't moved in months. Still sitting at the NVC. Not seeing each other for a year is so detrimental for a relationship and seeing no progress after waiting almost 1.5 years to get married is so depressing.

Are other Schengen people getting interviews? What is the situation?

I thought the embassies were supposed to start processing interviews again months ago....

Hi all! We're just filling the I-864 and came to a bit of a limbo with part 6 ?

My husband (the petitioner) is filing the most recent (2020) year taxes, has filed for 2019, but not for the 2018, since we were traveling and he wasn't working that year.

Soooo, should we mark 23.a (have you filed a Federal income tax return for each of the three most tax years) as a NO?

23.b. We would tick, since we're submitted tax return transcripts of 2019 and 2020, right?

24.c. 3rd most recent (2018) would have Total Income and NONE.

25. Would not be ticked off, since only 1 out 3 years was not required to file.

? I would greatly appreciate some help, as this one is a little tricky with 1 yr of tax return missing and would it want to mess it up because of 1-2 boxes being incorrect.. ????

Hello VisaJourney community!

So nice to see amount of help people are sharing and receiving here! Hope you guys can shed some light for us too

Sooo, my now husband and I got married yesterday at the Florida's Broward County Court Office by Deputy Clerk. The only thing we received is a signed and stamped document, which has all 3 parts on it: Application To Marry + License To Marry + Certificate Of Marriage. All 3 main parts are signed, completed and stamped, except for the part at the top/header of the document that has a section to fill in with details of State File Number, Date Returned, Recorder (Book, Page) and bottom/footer which includes our passport numbers and information for vital statistics. Enclosing picture of it. We were told by dep. clerk that filing and mailing a fully completed certificate will take 6 weeks! And there's nothing to be done to speed up the process. And my ESTA runs out in a week.. Clerk thinks that current copy might be ok for immigration, however he's not 100% sure. Soooo.. we are a in a bit of a pickle. We asked couple of lawyers for the advice and both gave different opinions - one advised to wait for the complete certificate even if it means that I'll overstay my ESTA (which gut feeling says NOT to overstay ESTA), whilst another - we have a right to send it as it is, better not to overstay ESTA, however we would be at USCIS's mercy - they can accept it as it is for now, ask for ROE or even reject the whole application, so it sounds that it depends on a person going through it.

Has anyone been in similar situation? I'm very reluctant about overstaying, since I'm not on a proper visa, but ESTA.

Any experiences/advices would be really appreciated!
