You cannot.
SHE, otoh, can.
study the I-94, there are two dates on it.
she can apply 21 days past issuance, all the way up to 2 weeks prior to expiration.
I-94s are not issued for CR-1 visa holders.
to apply for a SSN, show up at SSA office 21 days past the POE date.
To remove conditions, wait 641 days past green card issuance date, then apply.

I send an email to NVC on July 21 on they replied me back on 29 July that I have been designated as an agent, wait for about 9-10 days and there is nothing wrong sending ds 3032 by regular mail

A pregnancy does not potentially separate a couple from each other nor does it separate mother from her child. It takes 9 months because that is devised by God and not human beings. Immigration is controlled by human beings and they do have control over it. So bad example.
Although we cannot do anything except waiting but it is our right to yell when it hurts and this long separation does hurt. You have been there and you know better.
I can't say about others but in my case, some dumb immigration person had told my wife that it only takes couple of weeks for this process. It was only after we got married and applied, we found out how much pain in the rear this whole process can be.

I think the biggest piece of advice I can give you is BE HONEST about EVERYTHING! If you met online, say so. If you live together, say so. If she has or hasn't met your family, say so. The red flags and complications come when they raise questions and you answer them in a manner that makes them question your answer. Do not be afraid to tell your story and elaborate on points that will reinforce your answers.
Best of Luck to you!

First of all check these two things:
1. Call NVC to find out if they want PCC from Singapore and Pakistan or they need only PCC from your present country of permanent residence where your consulate interview will be conducted.
2. Verify with your USA embassy in Pakistan about PCC validity period. Mumbai Consulate in India considers PCC valid for 1 year from the date of issuance.
Hope this helps.

Your parents have 65 years together because your dad probably did not date another girl and was not planning to divorce his wife (your mother) for another woman.
I am not Christian so I do not exactly remember the words of solemnization at weddings however what I have seen in movies, those vows also include that the couple will remain faithful to each other. Are you forgetting that part? Her husband in this case is kind of cheating on her with another girl.
All I know is what Saylin has shared with us here. We do not know her husband's story. But if what Saylin has stated is true, then she needs to do something about it and not just suffer for rest of her life just for the sake of some vows.
Btw, I never heard anything like "would never get divorced" but "till death do us part" part and being cheated on is not less than dying.

1. You are right. Instead of hiring more of those no good customer service guys/ladies who cannot even answer our queries properly USCIS should hire more adjudicators.
2. If I remember the history correct then except the natives aka indians, all others in the states would be immigrant terrorists no? Others who immigrated to continet, overpowered the natives and became rulers. I don't mean to offend anyone here but just going by definition of the term "immigrant terrorist".
Btw, if by any chance and miracle you are given a surprise tour of any of USCIS service centers, how many people you think you may find playing solitaire or browsing Facebook and not doing their work for which they are paid.

While I agree to your statement about them being low on manpower and taking into account the seriousness of immigration law and national security, I cannot help but to laugh after reading an ad in local classified newspaper.

E2: For $80,000 to $150,000 depending on business plan and State Processing time: 2-3 months (visa in hand)
E1: $50,000 to $100,000 depending upon trading plan Processing time: 2-3 Months (visa in hand)
EB-5: $500,000 investment in Government approved project. Processing time up to 3 months. Yes, this one gets you a Green card as well. (More sugar you add, sweeter it gets).
All these categories are also shown on USCIS website chart for processing time.
Moral of the story: When money talks, everyone else just listens.
Then there is no worry about national security and immigration laws. You give them what they want and you can have what you want. No need to wait for 6-7 months for them just to adjudicate your petition. All the long wait and AP is for common people like us, not for the rich ones who can buy their way out.

While browsing and reading the forums I remember a senior member saying that once USCIS actually adjudicates your petition, it only takes few hours to 3 days. The long wait which kills us is the time taken for the petition to reach adjudicator's desk.
So I will agree with tweety on this one point. Get more people, assign them different categories. Just like adding more RAM to a computer or getting a dual core processor with ability to handle more processes at a time. That should help to reduce backlogs and in the long run everyone will have less waiting and separation time. Not saying they should give priority to recent filers but one backlog leads to another.
Only the U.S. Citizens or legal permanent residents are eligible to file a petition for fiance/fiancee, spouse or relatives. I believe all of you pay your state and federal taxes. Do you still deserve to be treated this way and be forced to undergo the long painful separation? Don't mark one person as selfish. He or she only talked about a flaw in the system and proposed a suggestion to improve it. Nothing wrong with that. Just because we cannot do anything about a flawed system does not mean we start bashing the one who pointed out that flaw. Remember, opinions are like a.. holes and everyone has one. Cheers!

start with this guide

We did have our nikah registered with NADRA you don't have to but i would recommend it
THey will need a translation but you can do it here in the states im sure...
Just be sure to get copies of the originals and have them notarized in case anything happens to originals and do not send originals to USCIS you will need them for NVC

it is faulty and incompetent management that does not know how to launch i.t. projects that could have shorten processing times tremendously.

As I understanding it, it is not the database check, it is the subsequent manual investigation, they could of course do it quicker, they could do the whole process a lot quicker.

Are you directly in an area where there are problems ? If you read the travel warning half the 3rd world countries read like yours ( check out Nigeria they are almost identical ) You must prove that there are activities very very close to you ( like the neighbor or at least on your street ) You can live in a "dangerous" country and not personally be in any danger at all.

I know what you mean, Im from Venezuelan and we have one of the highest rates of death by criminal situation in Latin america(including robbery, kidnap, etc etc) last year over a 14.200 people died on criminal situation (civils, criminals and police officers) No one is safe enough here. You can't go out with your cellphone, jewelry, or any expensive item. I love when my fiance comes to visit me but Im always scare because is TOO OBVIOUS that he's a tourist (He's Christina aguilera's blond jajaja, 5' 11',and blue eyes) when we're walking in a mall or something there're people staring at him and he keeps acting like if is still in the US. I've to take care of him all the time cause I guess he's not aware of the danger. He thinks like every country in the world it's like US.
We are not in war but we live in one. My fiance feels awful everytime he reads something, or hear the gun shots when we talk through skype. I've been robbed once like 6 month ago. A guy put a gun on my head and he only took my cellphone. When I told my fiance, he had blood pressure troubles and had anxiety.
He always says, "can't wait to bring you home". And can't wait either jajajajajaj. But I have faith on God and I know He's taking care of me.
My interview is in 11 days, hopefully I'll be home soon. BTW hope u can fix your situation, and be with your wife soon.
Blessings!!

i not smell any 'proper intake' of evidence for the expedite request, at all.
On a 'phone-call-initiated' request, the USCIS Human tells the caller what to do to get evidence into the right USCIS office.
You've not written about that one part, at all; I sense it's missing .
Suggest the petitioner call back on Friday morning, get it all sussed out with as many humans as it takes (to get it sussed out).
Good Luck !

You have to understand that everyone doesn't get the chance to show their arsenal of evidence at interview that's why we front-load. We are required to send in a BonaFide proof of ongoing relationship. Why would wedding pictures or pictures of trips to spouse not be included. For me I have read too many times the USC reading you don;t front-load no one will read all that save for interview than when interview comes the beneficiary goes in with binders full of evidence and the CO won;t even look at the extra evidence.
Until USCIS says DO NOT send why not put your best foot forward.

Sending embassy reviews to politicians is fine.
However, what you say we need to realize is simply not reflecting the real facts. Processing of petitions and visas has improved significantly since 2001, when the Life Act was passed. In 2007 and early 2008 alone, USCIS added many thousands of new employees to more efficiently deal with backlogs. This was the justification for more than doubling fees in July of 2007.
K3 stopped being faster in November 2006, when USCIS stopped processing the two petitions separately. My wife and daughter arrived on K3 and K4 visas a few months before that. It saved about six months then, but the time savings went away for two reasons. One, they simply process I-130 much faster now and two, they process the two petitions together. With efficient NVC management by the Petitioner, even a theoretical K3 would save no more than three of four weeks. That's WHY, NVC changed THEIR policy.

First you don't register a marriage in the US. You're married, that's that, no matter where or how you were married.
second
If one is married they have to file Married separately or married jointly OR head of household if there are other qualifying dependents (children)
-To file separately you put FOREIGN SPOUSE where the SSN blank is.
-To file jointly you need to get your spouse an individual tax id number (ITIN) and the spouse has to sign the returns and a statement saying they want to be considered as a resident alien for tax purposes.
It's very easy to amend tax returns, and people filing single and not married or head of household better do it quick! The IRS is going to figure it out eventually and not be happy. And I'm sure when the returns are submitted for the I-864 and NVC looks at them, their not going to be happy either.

K3 visas came out of the life act, in 2001, back when the CR1 and IR1 processes were taking 4 to 5 years. The K3 reunited couples within less than a year and continued to do so until late 2006. By then the CR1 and IR1 processes on the USCIS side were joined, so the petitions were approved the same day. This obviated the time savings for the K3 or reduced it to a matter of weeks faster than an efficiently managed CR1 or IR1 process. February 1, 2010, NVC changed their procedure in a way that made the K3 virtually obsolete.
Questions like "why do they still....?" falsely presume there is a single "they". There is not. There's USCIS and State Dept. two agencies that have been fueding as long as they've both been involved in the immigration process. USCIS still touts the K3 visa. Dept. of State's NVC, effectively executes it, dead on arrival.

I read up on all that as well, she is right...but the key in my case with my husband is that, love is priceless...if we get approved for K-3, the AOS fee to me, is nothing because my love for my husband is priceless...but if we dont get the K-3, so be it, its all in Gods hands and he will guide us all to being together with our loved ones...we tried the K-3 and who knows, if it works...fine...it not, at least we can say we tried, we wanted to try whatever paths given to us and see what happens...so good luck and hope all works out for you!!
