US Immigration from Peru

Can a legal resident apply for a k1 visa?

Hello everybody,

So I am flying to the USA on my k1 visa next week. My fianc already has his W2s and is ready to fill taxes, what we don t know is weather he has to do it now or wait until I am there and we get married. ( I already have a (US) SSN ) so he can fill his taxes as married and claim me as a dependent?

What do you guys think?

thanks !

Hello! I am probably nor the only one who was affected by the Pandemic while visiting the US, so this question is for those who changed from Consular Filling to AOS.

On January 2020 I received the NVC case creation letter, after having had my I130 approved (I am beneficiary and my husband is the American citizen). We paid and uploaded all documents at the NVC portal in February 2020 and I had a ticket to fly back to my home country on April 1st to do medical and wait for the interview. All of this changed when my country declared Emergency State and closed borders on March 15. On top of this, mid April I received an RFE from the NVC. We talked to a lawyer and they said it was best that I stayed and file for AOS (since I had the NVC receipts and flight tickets as evidence that I hadnt commit fraud by entering with a tourist visa to file AOS).

So, going to my question. In Part 3 of the I-485 it asks I have you ever applied for an immigrant visa at US Consulate/Embassy and what was the decision and the date of the decision. I dont know if my NVC process would be considered a yes, since it didn't come to an end result, I just didnt reply to the RFE because I didn't know what we were going to do at the time. Just last week I contacted the NVC asking to not close my case and explaining that I will be filling for AOS due to extraordinary circumstances related to covid19. Would this count as withdrwing my case? if so, the decision date would be when I sent the inquity to the NVC?

I appreciate the guidance!!

With no clear restart of K-1 visa processing at the US Embassy in Lima in sight, my fiancee's K-1 visa has been sitting at the NVC for almost 6 months now. All we want to do is get married and she wants to start working in the US. Is it possible to just drop our K-1 application and get married and then file for a CR-1? I believe while the CR-1 is pending my fianc e (or wife if we've filed the CR-1) can work in the US? The timeline for a green card or citizenship isn't all that important if we can get married and she can start work sooner rather than later.

Also, do you know if we could get married in the US and use the CR-1? She is currently here on a tourist visa and I don't know if that would raise problems like filing for a green card marriage would.

I received a social security number in 2010 when I worked 3 months at a ski resort, with a J1 visa as part of a work and travel program. After that I went back to my country and kept living my life. Fast forward to today and I am filling an AOS as a spouse, from a B2 visa due to change of plans from covid (my country closed borders and I got stuck here so my consular process was left incomplete and we started the AOS). When I try to get the free credit report online it keeps saying they cant verify my identity, then I tried creating an account with each of the agencies but they ask for bank details and I dont have a credit card here or any bank account. So I dont know what to attach as evidence for the I944, since I am not even sure that I have or not have a credit score.

Maybe someone who did a summer work and travel can shed any light? Much appreciated!
