    You know what the minimum wage is, yes? You know that not everyone that works a job gets to work a full 40 hours a week, yes? I know you can add and multiply. There's nothing to be bought here. It's a simple calculation not a purchase.

    kittylondon reacted to Oliverpb in Travelling to see Fiance during K1 VISA PROCESS!   
    When my fiancee comes to the US she tells them she is just here to visit her fiance and shows them her ticket home, they just ask a few questions and she goes through with out an issue. She has come and gone 3 times already. Once before the K1 and 2 times after. Just be honest, but you dont have to tell your life story.

    kittylondon reacted to himher in denial 212 a6c1   
    Now I'm going to be serious and cut this kid a break - not out of sympathy (I'm not) but because hammering is not really what this board is for.
    There is nothing all that serious about this case. It has already been ruled that failure to disclose facts not of a material nature is not grounds for denial of an immigration benefit. The fact that the petitioner was previously married (to her brother in law then divorced and married her brother in law snicker) but divorced prior to the current marriage is not a material fact. Convoluted, but not material. Same kind of stuff happens in kentucky / west virginia all the time or so I hear.
    Example of fact of Material nature: Previously married but never actually divorced. Disclosure would make the petitioner/benificiary ineligible
    Not of material nature: Previously married, divorced, failed to disclose out of fear or desire for privacy. Previously married, divorced prior to marriage does not effect the eligibility of the petitioner/beneficiary
    From an (appealed / won appeal) case where citizenship was denied based on information required but willfully not disclosed on an immigration form:
    As the government acknowledges in Kungys v. the United States:
    “It is only dishonesty accompanied by this precise intent that Congress found morally unacceptable. Willful misrepresentations made for other reasons, such as embarrassment, fear, or a desire for privacy, were not deemed sufficiently culpable to brand the applicant as someone who lacks good moral character.”
    For entertainment (make sure the seat is down first)

    It should also be noted that the courts clearly outlined that failure to disclose information is NOT the same as filing a false statement and if the information is not MATERIAL to the case anyway then it does not effect eligilibility for the immigration benefit.
    Hope that helps.

    kittylondon reacted to aaron2020 in How to prove the financial difficulties or that I have met?   
    Those two items are evidence that the two of you meet in the last two years. It doesn't in themselves show the two of you have a bono ride relationship. You will need more evidence to show a real relationship to overcome suspicion of a marriage for a green card.
    Do some serious reading on the k-1 process before you file. You don't seem to have a basic grasp of it based on your posts.

    OP, you have every right to be upset and I personally applaud you for speaking out. People here are quick to point out how so many have gone through the same as you, or worse, how you have no "right" to immigration of a foreign spouse, how all of us here just have to bide our time, no matter what happens (or not) with our case.
    I understand and agree that patience is a virtue and will help you remain sane during the process. But having said that, it's also hard to ignore how unfair, non-transparent and blatantly discriminating the system is. This is accepted, and people willingly give up their rights in the name of "national security". THAT is the American way.
    Change only happens when more and more people recognize what's going on, and start talking about it. Not trying to stage a revolution here, but come on people, when you get treated badly, do you tell yourself "I deserve it"?
    In my book everyone here contributes to international understanding and a better future for our planet by their involvement with people of a different nationality. We cannot agree that we should be unduly punished for this, right?!

    kittylondon reacted to SmilesAbroad in i need help!!! im cracking here!   
    Oh my gosh you sweet angel He is telling you SO MANY MANY LIES. I am a muslim sister myself. Did you know anything about Islam when you married him???? It sounds like you didnt (dont) know anything Right now based on what you told me you can talk to local imams at the mosque and sue for divorce. Please message me and I will help you out. Let me tell you some things that will help you since you don't seem to know them. THE MAN WHO ACCUSES A WOMAN OF CHEATING FALSELY WILL GO TO HELL. The rule is clearly stated in the Qur'an. It is called one of the WORST sins. He must formally accuse you to an Imam under oath to Allah (swt) FOUR TIMES to make up for the absence of FOUR WITNESSES to the crime. BUT if the WIFE SWEARS FOUR TIMES THAT THE HUSBAND IS LIEING, YOU ARE CLEARED AND HE IS IN TROUBLE FOR ACCUSING YOU FALSELY. From everything you just told me, he is a BAD muslim. YOU HAVE SEVERAL ISLAMIC GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE. TALK TO AN IMAM PLEASE. Under Islamic rules he HAS TO PROVIDE FOR YOU. THAT MEANS MONEY, CAR, GAS, ELECTRIC. WHATEVER YOU NEED AT ALL. IF YOU STEAL MONEY FROM HIM TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF IT IS NOT THEFT BY THE RULES OF ISLAM. The Qu'ran clearly gives you the right to steal his money without any punishment (from Allah) the laws of the country may be different and you should adhere to them, however any Imam will support your right to money, a car, and electricity if your husband has the means to provide them to you. IF HE DOES NOT DO THIS YOU CAN SUE HIM FOR DIVORCE. Also the part of the Qur'an which permits *a light slap or a tap* comes from an arabic word that technically means to percuss, like how you tap a drum. AND THAT IS AFTER HE TELLS YOU HE HAS A PROBLEM WITH SOMETHING AND STOPS SHARING YOUR BED. If he didn't take the first two steps then he cannot hit you in any way, and if he hits you in any manner not equivalent to a tap (it should never be more than something akin to a poke, to grab your attention that he has a problem with something you are doing). If you both cannot resolve that issue you need mediators from your family and talk to an Imam. But at this point, you are beyond mediation because he has refused to provide for you and has lied against you. TALK TO AN IMAM RIGHT AWAY. If there are no GOOD Imams in your area please talk to me. And also, he is NOT allowed to talk to a non mahram, a non member of his family or not his wife, you are CORRECT. PLEASE MESSAGE ME ASAP. I will pray for you!

    I think that highly depends on what I decide to do with my degree, and you're assuming I'll settle for a second rate restaurant job, which isn't the case.

    You need an action plan that gets you out of your current situation.
    Biggest issues it seems:
    1) you are not mobile
    2) you live in a bad neighborhood
    3) you're not working or going to school
    Regarding item 1, may I suggest going online to study the written driving test? This will help you on the path of being mobile. When you're ready, your husband should take the time off or if you guys have family or friends to take you to test. You should consider signing up for private driving lessons. This is something you can work on while your husband is at work. Then you'll probably want to investigate where you can buy a used car.
    Regarding item 2 and 3, that unfortunately is something you'll have to work on. In a few months, you'll be able to work. Having the dual income will help in your chances of being able to afford a new place. Not sure where you are educationally but going to school can never hurt.
    Regarding food, there has to be some local farmers markets in Atlanta. That will be your key to real food.
    Also, does he have family or friends in the area with a car? That could be your out. I'm sure if they heard your situation they would drive you to the DMV or to get real groceries.
    Your husband sounds overworked and exhausted but he needs to prioritze the things that will get you to be an active contributing member of the relationship. It's going to make things so much better for both of you once both parties can equally partipate in your mural success. Be patient and most of all, be proactive.

    kittylondon got a reaction from Stu4Lee in K1 visa granted, is return ticket necessary?   
    seconded. i used to work for BA, and the passenger lists generated for each flight includes only passengers who checked in and physically boarded that flight. it's an incredibly important and accurate document that is passed on to authorities. there will be a record of your booking on a global system somewhere, but it will be clear that you did not check in for the return leg.
    airlines don't care if you don't turn up - it allows them to consistently oversell flights by 20%, on the basis that around that percentage don't turn up on the day, for whatever reason. and people who work for airlines are grateful because they get to take your seat when they're on staff standby. i wouldn't ever have gotten to visit my fiance in new york if everyone turned up for their flights all the time! i travelled on standby to see him every few weeks on a cheap staff ticket, and if they'd known that seat was going to be empty they would have had time to re-sell it
