Getting Through CBP

Hey all, my fianc e was recently approved for a k1 visa and her flight is scheduled to arrive in the US from Peru on July 1st through Miami. She is freaking out thinking that CBP will detain her, or worse send her back because she has seen tik toks of CBP doing that to other US visa holders. Is anyone able to calm her mind a little (and mine too, to be honest) by saying what questions will be asked? We have a wedding date and location picked which I would assume would be the extent of their questioning, but can somebody confirm this? Thank you all in advance.

Has anybody used any of the apps available to help prepare for the exam/interview? We haven't downloaded any yet but I thought I'd check and see if anyone had recommendations, preferably free ones but we're open to all.

Spouse Wants Mom To Come Visit - N400 In The Works?

My wife is technically eligible to apply for N400 under 3 year rule but we are waiting because we arrived in Aug 2022 with her IR1 but stayed just a few weeks and then went back to Peru to terminate our lease and take care of loose ends, arriving back in the US in Dec 2022. We will be applying for the N400 around Sep (90 days-ish). Currently, my wife wants to assist her mom in applying for a tourist visa so she can get in what we assume to be a long line and come visit us here (absolutely no intention of staying long term). Are there any people with experience or suggestions. Is this a good idea? bad idea? Any pitfalls we should consider? Thanks.

Please please help me - should we abandon everything and leave the US?

Thank you so much for your time to even reading this. I'm a mother trying to do my best for my family and also apologize for my poor English. I'm very tired, confused and discouraged. Living in Vancouver, WA state for the time being.

I was born Peruvian. My first marriage (with a US citizen) occurred years ago and we divorced amicably, of course I left the house for him because in my heart I wanted to move back to Peru. I gained citizenship. I then met my husband (Peruvian citizen) while in Peru and had our Benny (3 years old). My son didn't qualify for automatic citizenship because of my ignorance, I didn't know I had to gather 5 years "residing" in the USA prior to giving birth to him. All of this happened while I was working for the same company as in 2018 located in Vancouver WA, worked (still working) many years with them and while they accepted me to work remotely, they'd eventually request for me to be back "physically" in the office. I petitioned my son (3 year old) and my husband (37) and we are all here now in the US (we arrived April 26th)... But this weights heavy in our hearts, they both don't speak the language, they have no friends and prices are so expensive, I can not live off with the money my employer is paying right now, of course it was good money for Peru but not here much, more than half of what I make a month goes to rent. We went to a dealership and got a sedan car that we need to make payments on, plus a 12-month lease just a couple of weeks ago. My mom wants to come help, but she is only in a tourist visa, she wants to be here for 3 to 5 months to help us, what if they reject her at all at port of entry, with how I see how things are evolving?

So, here is where I please ask you for your kind advice/suggestions...

What would be the legal consequences of leaving the US right now?

Should we wait some months and start the process for my son's citizenship before leaving?

What about my husband? He is waiting for biometrics appointment? Not sure when he can receive the actual card as I see everybody mentioning processing times are rough? And even if he receives it, when he applied for IR1 at embassy, his Tourist visa got revoked. Any chance for him ever coming back to the US after this fiasco I have caused for him? He is a type 1 diabetic and I made him quit a fantastic job as project manager of government bids over in Peru to come here, he felt I made the right decision for the family and clearly I didn't, I have failed them, I didn't expect for prices to be so high plus health insurance omg...

I feel like a failure, I am guilty of this... but I also feel like moving back to Peru would be the best for our emotional and financial health. THANK YOU all so much. I'm sorry.

Good morning all!!

I just wanted to touch base with some of you recent filers. I mailed off my K-1 packet on April 1st. According to my tracking info, it was received on April 5th. I received a text from USCIS stating my case was received with a WAC receipt number on April 9th. This text notice also said an official Receipt Notice (Form I-797C) will follow in the mail. It's now April 28th and I've not received anything in the mail. I'm not sure if I this is typical, just slow moving mail process and keep waiting and watching the mail, or if I should have received something physical in regards to this process by now. Thoughts?
