US Immigration from Ukraine

Just want to share experience. For military Guam is overseas, but for USCIS it's not!

So there is no way expedite your naturalization when you station on Guam.

My fiance and I are sitting around in Kyiv, Ukraine waiting for K visa interviews to resume. We've been putting off getting pregnant (and moving on with our lives) earlier in the immigration process because I've read around the internet that a pregnancy on the medical exam could be grounds for delaying a visa approval pending a paternity test, and in addition to not wanting us to be here any longer than we have to, I didn't want to risk my fiance giving birth in a country with a less than stellar medical system (putting it mildly).

Now though, we have no good indicator of when the Kyiv embassy will resume interviews. Some sources are suggesting because of the backlog of applications, an interview date could be months away even after interviews resume. So we're rethinking our strategy. Still though, if not getting pregnant means we leave in (let's say) 4 months instead of 13 months, we'd choose the former and not the latter.

And so we'd like a conclusive answer to the question: can a pregnancy delay a visa approval because of the question of paternity? And is it absolute, or only in cases where it's suspected that the child isn't mine? And if it's the latter, what proof do I need to provide? Is there an Affidavit of Support I can fill out for an unborn child?

If I need to provide proof of entry, will ticket stubs be enough? I am in a peculiar situation in that I have passports for both the US and Ukraine, and so I leave the US on my US passport and enter Ukraine on my Ukrainian one. And since neither country stamps their own passport, I don't have any entry stamps into Ukraine (or exits from the US) to indicate that I am in Ukraine right now. I do have an entry/exit stamp in my US passport from when I entered Turkey in March and hopped on a boat to Ukraine.

I appreciate any advice!

Hello.

I'm the petitioner. My k1 fiance an i got married 25 days after entering USA.

Is there a time limit on applying for AOS and I-485?

What's an expected amount of time to wait for a NOA correspondence when filing AOS? Looking at the AOS timelines here, it seems like most people recently got their NOA within 2-3 weeks. We're now on week 5 and beginning to wonder if we need to take additional action. Anyone else in the same boat or have information to share? Thanks in advance!

I am planning to sponsor my sister family to USA (to become US resident). There is a step that I will have to prove that i have enough income to support her family.

My question is, If i sign an affidavit to agree to support her family when they get to US (even though her family has a good income in her country). Will this affect to all of my business in the future: get a loan, buy a house, buy a car, etc?
