  1. Thanks
    Pitaya reacted to USS_Voyager in Work authorization   
    Technically it is possible. However, the EAD prior to applying to AOS would only be valid until the I-94 expires, which is maximum 90 days. Since it takes more than 90 days to get an approved EAD, it is basically moot.

    Here is information that you should use for your interview preparation. P3 letter is included plus links for others who can help.
     
    The GUZ P3 is what prevents people in China from getting a head start, they want the instructions page mailed back with the requested documents.

    P3 Letter for China:
    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gcrLW0OCkGfdz43tehWNmgDayJUrRTdj/view?usp=sharing
     
    U.S. Consulate General Guangzhou when it is time to schedule an interview. K visa applicants will be notified by the U.S. Consulate General Guangzhou when it is time to schedule an interview. You cannot schedule your interview appointment till such time as you have been sent the P3 letter from the Embassy and have returned the requested documents.

    And the Portal here on VJ for processing in China and what to expect

    and the http://www.ustraveldocs.com/cn/cn-iv-visaapplyinfo.asp
     
    Don't waste time while you're waiting for P3, complete DS-160 and print confirmation page. Since you are from China go to the 2nd link below and click immigrant to register under K1 visa. After you register and enter info it should be clear on how to pay fee, make sure you print bank deposit slip. Just follow directions under Nonimmigrant Visa, but make sure when you register K1 is under Immigrant Visa.
     
    Directions go to http://www.ustraveldocs.com/cn/cn-niv-visaapply.asp
     
    Register(Create Account) https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/?language=English&country=China 
     
    After you register make sure to choose K1 visa under Immigrant, it wasn't an option for under non-immigrant.

    Sounds like an interesting dilemma. I would suggest that you wait until you get your interview appointment letter before scheduling your visit to the civil surgeon. However, it may not be a bad idea to contact a couple of civil surgeons in your area (if available), present your situation, and check to see their availability and getting their exam results before the interview.
     
    Good luck on your immigration journey.

    Urban legend.  Never has been a requirement for the uscis.   
     
    However,  if you choose to submit such unneeded information in a language other than English,  it requires a translation.

    What exactly did you send with the original I-129F? What does the RFE say exactly?
    Do you have hotel receipts or other evidence to provide?
    A letter from the family is not a requirement and if it does not appear on the RFE, I would focus on providing exactly what they are asking for.

    You are so right. Why they don't even deserve to get compensated for the entire month. I will just contact the accounting department and see about having their weekly pay cut in half! Let's see...... 8 hours x $ 0 (zero)/hour = $0,  so 0.5 x 0 = $0 (zero). I will forward this information to accounting right now.......

    This site is primarily a Do-it-yourself (DIY) site. It is not a "we regurgitate the answers to you" site. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.  If that bothers you, there are plenty of immigration lawyers that will be glad to have you as a client. 
     
    Best wishes on your immigration journey.

    Pitaya got a reaction from SalishSea in Missed K1 interview   
    Wholeheartedly agree ! 👍 When we were actively pursuing our immigration journey, we made time to make a scheduled appointment with whatever immigration agency for whatever purpose.  We thought that we would strive to be done with some of these crazy interruptions of our lives as soon as possible. We all had lives to live, jobs, training, school...Why string it out? To perpetuate the inconvenience? The consequences seem to go from bad to worse.... At the worst, miss an appointment and to have your application/case declared abandoned and the agency closes your file, or to get a rescheduled appointment that is at a much more inconvenient time that the original time slot, or not having any open appointment slots available for the foreseeable future, and to have expiring applications or time sensitive documents will soon be expiring....

    You just have to follow the consulate's instructions for rescheduling.  Personally, I'd do everything humanly possible to make that interview.  Could be months before another date is available.

    You really should read and review the VJ step-by-step K1 Visa Guide: https://www.visajourney.com/guides/k1-fiance-visa/  , and the official form and instructions: https://www.uscis.gov/i-129f  for more information and answers.

    First off you're overthinking this process. Second USCIS, NVC and your embassy will NEVER promise you a date that they will be finished adjudicating your case. Third, you are experiencing what is refereed as NORMAL processing. From your description we see nothing to be concerned with.

    Does it matter that it's different? You havent explained how it is different.  Also don't compare your case to other people's unless you're way put of processing times.

    Pitaya reacted to NikLR in MyUSCIS vs CEAC.State Discrepancy   
    Is your I-129F approved? If so then stop checking the USCIS status update.  No matter what update system theyve used, it's always been a PITA.  Some people never get past an initial "we recieved" well into citizenship. 
    If it hasnt been approved then checking the CEAC site is useless. They have no idea you exist and use a different case number as part of the DOS not the DHS. 
    And your inital post is confusing as you bold one quote but not the other.

    And that’s how I’m helping you - telling you to slow down and read everything before filling out the forms. 
     
    That’s the best advice anyone can give anyone in this process. 
     
    I would also remind you that telling others not to post is against the site’s TOS.

    Pitaya reacted to JFH in Filing form I-131 with AOS   
    I strongly suggest you research the AOS process a bit more before you start sending forms and payments. The fact that you are asking this type of question suggests that you are still very much in the dark about the whole process.

    No paranoia or self-induced stress is necessary, there is already enough built into the processes. Just read the official instructions, follow the VJ guides, and look at the VJ filled-in form examples, and answer the questions literally. Have some faith and confidence in your own abilities. 👍

    I can tell you that as one who has been trying to follow your ongoing saga, and make some sense out of your rambling thread over the last six months. You have been admonished by forum moderators at least twice, perhaps thrice, to refrain from starting another thread. You have been denied multiple times in your now seeming desperate attempt to get into the US. The embassy/consulate officials have denied your visa applications several times, with a 214(b) denial reason being given to you. In these days of the computer and the internet, your bleating comments about going to make FIOA requests to determine the reason for your ongoing denial is likely a waste of US taxpayer resources. This DOS link, easily found through a simple Google search,  entitled Visa Denials, succinctly describes what a Section 214(b) denial is according to the Immigration and Nationality Act, https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/visa-denials.html . It is time to move to on to another topic....hasta la vista....
