US Immigration from Taiwan

Hello,

So I finally got back into my USCIS account having changing phone numbers a while back, and when I clicked around in my account, I notice that in the documents tab it looks like the image I attached to this post.

Now I didn t upload this as my lawyer was the one who applied. The documents are named with my application number and either Part 1 and Part 9 at the end.

The part 1 document is the G-28.

The Part 9 document is pages 3-6 of the I-130a, my passport photos, and my wife s passport photos. Along with a transaction payment form?

This raises some concerns in my head. Namely, is the I-130 supposed to show up here along with my entire submission?

if not, why did would there only be pages 3-6 of the I-130a? Does it have to do with the G-28 since my wife s signatures aren t on the G-28?

I was told it was done correctly, but I don t feel confident enough in his ability to be sure. So turning to here.

Thanks

Hello,

thinking of hiring a new lawyer. Has anyone had any experience or worked with Gary Chodorow (writer and owner of lawandborder)?

He seems to be pretty experienced, especially with Asia. Just curious if anyone has worked with him or have second hand knowledge of people who have.

thanks

I am posting a reference to Medicare For Immigrants, a thread I created last year which provides a lot of information concerning the process for receiving Medicare and Social Security benefits for retirement aged immigrant spouses. I hope this provides some information for those of you who might be approaching retirement this year.

Started this journey in May 2022. Now in Jan 2023, I'm at the stage of Packet 4 waiting for interview appointment slots to opened up.

The Interview Checklist and the Medical Exam Checklist all require passport valid for at least 6 months. My passport expires on Sep 6, 2023.

As you know the languages on USCIS and relevant websites are never in sync. Examples:

• DS-160 Form said "a valid passport for at least 6 months" based on the "plan travel date".
• Medical Exam said "a passport valid for 6 months after your travel date to the US".
• Packet 3 Letter said "a passport valid for 6 months beyond the date you plan to enter the US"

Given the wait time for the interview at Montreal, do you advise that I renew my passport now? I'm afraid that renewing my passport with a new passport number will screw up and further delay my processing. Suggestions?

Finally got the Packet 4 email to schedule an interview. However, I haven't seen appointment slots at Montreal Embassy opened up yet. Does anyone have any insights on this? When does it usually open up?
