US Immigration from Sierra Leone

Does anyone here have any experience with the i129? My friend is throwing a cultural musical show/tour and wants to bring over some artists from West Africa. We know we have to file the i129 but what we are not clear on is if we can list multiple artists on one form, or if every artist needs their own form?

Any insight would be appreciated!

Hello everyone!

I am interested in filing an i130 petition for my stepson.

my current husband is also a us citizen (he became a us citizen through another path, not through me). He was not aware of this child until recently, and while he accepts him- he is not interested in filing for him. I would like him to be able to come to America to have a better opportunity and be apart of his sisters lives.

I have a couple questions:

1) based on the above scenario am I able to file a petition for my stepson?
2) do I need an ok or any permission from my husband? If I will need permission or any involvement from him down the line- I rather not bother as my husband likely will not participate in the process.

thanks in advance for your help

Hello everyone,

My husband s case is currently at NVC; however, our four month old baby has been diagnosed with droopy eyelids and needs surgery to lift his eyelids to prevent further vision issues. Will I be able to request for my husband s case to be expedited so that he can be present for our baby s surgery? Thanks for your assistance!

Hello All,

been quite a while.

hope everyone is well. I had some questions about the social security card process as my sister in law has immigrated on a k1 visa through my brother.

She applied and received a social security card shortly after she arrived in the USA.

yesterday she had an apppintment to change her last name, she had her marriage certificate with her. The agent told her she can t change her name until she receives her green card with her new name on it.

this doesn t seem right, but she was by herself and didn t feel empowered to advocate for herself so she left.

is this accurate? If not, what is the right protocol? If this happens again what should she do or what should she do when she makes the next appointment. By the way, when making the appointment she was only told to bring the marriage certificate and application and social security card.

Hello guys,

my husband s I-130 got approved recently on 02/26 and we received the case creation letter from NVC today 03/01. I am currently pregnant and will be having our baby next month and for that reason I have plans of paying the fees and submitting all required documents to NVC. The only issue is the DS-260 form has a question about whether my husband has a child which would be yes if we submit the documents after our child is born in April, but I will be submitting no later than March ending, so it will be a no. Would we be able to update this information after our child is born?

Thanks!
