US Immigration from Russia

I will be filing my n-400 soon and was wondering what documents do i need to upload. I have travelled here and there but nothing more than 2-3 weeks outside usa so no issues on the travel aspect

Below is the list i i have

1) copy of green card

2) Speeding ticket i got like 10 years ago. it was a Court Dismissal as the officer did not remember why he wrote the ticket. I will be uploading the ticket and Court dismissal document

Do i need to submit Tax Transcripts for 5 year rule filing ?

Hello all, I am in a bit of a situation with my fiance and her K1 interview. She is a Russian foreign national who was originally scheduled to have her K1 interview in Warsaw Poland on August 26th. Her Schengen visa was approved from Greece originally to cover the date. However, when she went to her medical exam they forced her to return on August 27th for further inquiry into her medical history ( which in my opinion, was complete <DELETED>but thats another story). We got her interview date in Warsaw switched and then she went back to Moscow to reapply for a new Schengen visa once her old visa expired.

She reapplied on September 1st and on September 6th she was denied this time, despite having the exact same application as before. The only difference is she doesnt work anymore because she quit her job to leave the country. She had more money in her bank account than the first time and i used myself as a supporter of funds as well. We had a cover letter also that explained our situation and why she didnt have a job compared to last time. Also, we of course had all of our flights and hotels mapped out to where we were staying and we stayed more days in Greece than Poland as well. We also, just like the first time had a flight showing us leaving Europe.

We are utterly devastated because now she cant get to Warsaw. Is there any advice you guys could give me in what we should do? My lawyers are now trying to get the case moved to another embassy but I doubt this will work. Has anybody had any success? I have yet again called my senators office to see if there is something that they could do.

My wife is a LPR and filed an I-130 to bring her stepson to the US. Here are the details:

Stepson DOB: 10/22/2004

Priority Date: 8/19/2024

I130 Approval Date: 8/28/2025

CSPA added time, 1 year + 9 days. (I think I am calculating this correctly)

Age Out date: 10/28/2026 (Again, I'm not 100% sure I'm calculating this correctly)

Current Visa Bulletin Final Action Date: 9/1/2022

What I think all this means is unless the FA date in the Visa Bulletin advances to later than 8/19/2024 in the next 13 1/2 months, he will age out and become an F2B case.

Q1: Do I understand the dates and deadlines correctly?

Q2: Is there anything we can do to prevent him from aging out?

Q3: Should we consider an immigration attorney?

Thanks!

With the Russian government now restricting, and possibly outright closing WhatsApp and Telegram, how are people communicating with family, fianc s, or spouses in Russia?

Hello. My fiance went to her medical exam in Moscow for her interview for a K1 Visa in Warsaw Poland. Upon the interview, everything went well until they ordered a drug test because they labeled her scratches on her arm caused by her cat as 'evidence of mental health'. Upon the drug test, she tested positive for MDMA. She does not do drugs nor has she ever done drugs in her life. However, she is on a bunch of medication including mebeverine for her stomach, which has been shown sometimes to cause false positives for MDMA. Upon her showing them her medication as well as evidence that this prescription can read positive for MDMA, the doctor waived his hand in her face and told her he will not bother looking at the report and that 'its nonsense' such a drug can cause this, despite attempting to show him peer-reviewed science and medical articles describing that this drug causes false positives for MDMA, including from the National Institute of Health ( a federal funded american medical agency).

the next morning at 6, she went down to a narcologist and took a test again showing that she was completely clean. However, the clinic refused anything. That day, the clinic called her and said that htey could make this drug test go away but the head narcologist has to return from her vacation on august 26th to change it and then would be able to email it over to warsaw poland. THey mentioned she wont have to be here for this in person. However, the next day when she called, they said that actually yes, she will need to be in moscow during this and that the process will take two weeks instead. When she mentioned she would miss her scheduled appointment and thus have the schenghen also run out they basically said they didn't care.

Does this sound like strange behavior from a medical clinic to jerk us around like this? I got my lawyer involved to try and inquiry into the embassy in poland to see if they can do anything about it. What else should we do? She is not a drug user and never has been, and to be labeled as one and barred for a year because a physician has never heard of a drug and yet refused to even look at evidence contradicting what he declared is so crazy. I dont know if it helps, but I also got my state senator invovled although i dont know what else they can do.

has anybody ever dealt with like this before??
