US Immigration from Russia

Hello,

My fiancee is in America on a K1 Visa and she is worried that we need to actually have her SSN card before we get married. She is saying that if we get married, she will no longer have valid status as a K1 Visa holder and wouldn't be able to obtain a SSN card until she has her green card. Can anyone help with additional information that shows that's true? I'm having trouble understanding exactly what dates are important for obtaining the card.

We found out today that we have to make an appointment to apply for the SSN card. The appointment is scheduled for October 21st and we have an appointment to apply for our marriage certificate on October 27th. The only date that I can find is important in relation to applying for the SSN card is to do it within 2 weeks of the I-94 expiring. Please help. She is very stressed about the process and it's starting to wear on me as well since I'm having a hard time finding resources that show we should or shouldn't be worried.

Thank you so much.

Can my Russian wife travel to me here in the US on her visitors visa after we have applied for the CR-1 ?

Hello. I am a green card holder and I have submitted I 130 petition for reunification with my son, he is over 21 years old, lives in Russia, is not married. I received Form I 797 stating that USCIS received a petition and a letter with a code number to access the case in my account.
1. Could you please tell me what notifications (letters) to expect further? I know it takes about 7 years, but I would like to know what and when to expect further notifications and how to track the priority of consideration.

2. How does the status (type) of the case change after I receive citizenship, for example, after 3 years? Does this affect the speed of consideration of the case?

Thank you.

Hello!

I'm just beginning the immigration journey and filling out the required paperwork to bring my wife to USA from Russia. I noticed that there is a section that allows you to enter the embassy you are requesting interview in and noticed that many people had success getting cases transferred from Moscow to Warsaw. Wondering if it's best just to request Warsaw on the I-130 or to place Moscow in this section as this is the Country of residence for my wife. It wasn't immediately clear whether Warsaw was only processing transfer requests or accepting initial requests for interview at US Embassy in Warsaw. If I request Warsaw on the I-130 and it's denied because it's not a transfer request...will it automatically be sent to Moscow? Hope my question makes sense. Awaiting responses!!
