US Immigration from Netherlands

Hi all,

I would like to visit the US for 3/4 weeks this summer. However, I have an I-130 pending (CR1), so I'm not sure if that will make things difficult.
My husband is currently in Europe on deployment. One of our friends is "house sitting" his house for the duration of his deployment, since I still live in my home country. I would like to help her settle in, and just hang out with her.

An extra complication is that I am about to graduate from my Master's degree, and don't have a job lined up yet (wanted to enjoy my last 'long' student summer vacation). So, I don't have any 'official' ties to my home country, other than the room I rent.
I have zero intention of staying in the US, simply because I want to get work experience in my home country first, and there's literally no reason for me to stay since my husband isn't even there (and he's stationed closer to my home country than ever before).

I already have a valid ESTA so that is not a problem. I also have Global Entry, but I have not used it since I got married.

Does anyone know if I can use Global Entry to enter the county without problems? Or what I can expect?

Thanks in advance!!

Hello,

I'm trying to schedule an appointment for an interview for a K1 visa in Frankfurt. I sent the confirmation and the DS-160. After that, I received an automatic email stating that I must use visa navigator. If I don't use it, they will not answer my email.

I used the navigator, but after that, it says I have to send a new email with a new subject 77.

I'm a bit confused. Should I send the new email or should I wait? It's been a week since I sent the email.

Thank you.

Our 129f says 'On June 17, 2024, we sent your case, Receipt Number XXXXXXX, to the Department of State for visa processing. You can find general information on Consular Processing by visiting our website at www.uscis.gov . The website will provide information on what to do next, who to contact, and how to inform us of any changes in your situation or address.'

I thought the next step was NVC?

Hi All,

do you still need an ESTA when you are travelling to the US after your interview but haven t gone through the Customs/Border protection yet to get your passport stamped?

now it s not really a problem to be safe than sorry and just renew mine.
but could still save some $

Thanks.

Was it easy to get the interview, or was it busy?
