US Immigration from Lithuania

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of questions about my wife's (K-1) SSN timeline:

Jan 25 - arrival into US

Feb 12 - SSN application (waited 2+ weeks)

March 14 - wedding

March 16 - AOS forms sent (applied for SSN via 765 using her married name. Form indicated she didn't have a SSN, which was a true statement at the time)

April 13 - SSN arrived (in maiden name)

For 6 weeks after Feb 12, the SS card wasn't arriving. SS office kept saying how the application is still "with immigration" and their hands were tied. Because of this unknown timeline, we decided to send our AOS and not wait for SSN. Then it came in the mail on April 13.

Questions:

1. Do I need to submit any additional docs to USCIS to correct the "blank SSN" in all AOS forms?

2. Will SS correctly reissue the new card with the new name, but the same SSN, via the I-765 request? Are there chances of them issuing a new number by mistake?

3. Should we visit the SS office to change the name on the card? Other than it being a good idea to use married name, will this help avoid confusion when SS receives the request from USCIS, given that the names will now match?

Thank you in advance for the responses.

Hello there,

My fianc and I applied for our K-1 visa back in February 2020. Our case is still stuck at NVC. I was reading a lot about this Milligan v. Pompeo lawsuit and that it can help to push the case forward.

Please, can anyone share any ideas, thoughts how to apply and join this plaintiff lawsuit?

Thanks

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,

My K-1 visa fiancee (wife) needs her I-693 filled out. She has a nearly complete DS-3025 and she had her exam and X-ray done in country of origin prior to the K-1 interview. They also did blood tests (but I am not totally sure for what other than STD). Her exam was last December.

I am calling around the area looking for a civil surgeon to complete my wife's I-693 and I am finding the following:

1. USCIS list of doctors is way out of date and some phone numbers aren't even in service.

2. Some who do exist have no idea what I am talking about in various forms ("what is DS-3025?", "we don't have surgeons here")

3. Some want to do a blank $400+ exam regardless what was done before.

I found two clinics that seem semi-competent, i.e. I emailed them the DS-3025 but they still want to do blood work for QFT (tuberculoses blood test), which I believe is unnecessary. Plus they want to do the medical exam, which I also believe to be unnecessary. Am I wrong? Can someone help me phrase my request correctly to these folks? I thought this would be way easier than it's turning out to be.

My understanding is that she would need literally two things: Tdap (shows due on DS-3025) and regular influenza shot. Everything else has code A and B.

Thank you for the responses.
