Sponsoring someone, puts there life in financial risk, if it goes sideways.

Calicolom reacted to smilingstone in I’m very nervous our evidence isn’t strong enough and I’m so scared our family will be ripped apart if I’m denied
You probably felt the same way during your K1.
And again during your AOS.
I think that in the eyes of USCIS, your relationship has been bona fide from the start, otherwise you wouldn't be at this point now.
I don't think you have anything to worry about and I only hope to be equipped with so much when I am in your position. 🙂

Calicolom reacted to Lil bear in Green card
Only USCIS can render her status invalid and only if it is determined by USCIS that the marriage was entered into for the purpose of obtaining LPR status and that it was not a bonafide relationship Infidelity alone is not cause for this decision
Please fill out your timeline as the process and stage you are at with immigration impacts this assessment

Calicolom reacted to thonati in US Supreme Court says citizens can't sue over foreign spouses' visa denials
This is a great, well-thought out decision. The Plaintiff's argument is that the US Constitution outlines unalienable rights as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Therefore the State Department is required by the US Constitution to provide a visa to a US Citizen's fiance/husband so she can be 'happy". The answer is very simple. The US Citizen can move to her fiance's country to be with him/her. They also could both move to a country where they both can get a visa and long term residency.
The US Supreme Court usually gets these things right most of the time. I am not surprised that the 3 Liberal justices dissented. They usually are on the wrong side of decisions.

Calicolom reacted to KMG in US Supreme Court says citizens can't sue over foreign spouses' visa denials
This is why vetting before marrying is so important. Character matters in any marriage, but it is especially essential when marrying in another culture. With some of the divorce stories being posted here almost daily, it is clear that US Citizens are under the assumption that it is their right to bring whoever they want into the country, only to find out they were being scammed all along. -
Calicolom reacted to JeanneAdil in US Supreme Court says citizens can't sue over foreign spouses' visa denials
U can't sue but spouse visa denial can be appealed by Immigration Court .but i don't advise it.
As most know we went thru denial after answering huge RFE and then appealed the NOIR
and we are married over 14 years and happy and doing good
BUT i think most USC's should seriously consider the CO decision as a warning and maybe try to learn why the denial
These CO's live in the country of the embassy,, know the people, see the paperwork and understand more about the circumstances than we do
I don't know if a CO is allowed to violate the privacy of the immigrant by saying things like " :hey, your fiancee is talking to and telling many women he loves them" CO can check the ds160 or ds 260 info on the social media but this happens.
We have even seen some come, marry , get the green card , then divorce and apply for a person back home
And one woman flew into Atlanta and text her fiancee that CBP wouldn't allow her in and then he saw her leaving in another car
Yes, divorces happen and even if married to another USC marriage was no guarantees
but there are reasons (good ones) to deny or want more proofs of a relationship
and we need to trust the judgement of a trained professional

Calicolom got a reaction from Jason and May in Visa K 1 penalty for 1 year
My neighbor in Colombia where I live part time, just lost $3000.00 she payed, from an colombian attorney. When she complained about not getting a US visa, the lawyer gave her back $1500.00. Good business for not doing anything.

Calicolom reacted to powerpuff in Tourist Visa Denied - Help
Just for the record, COs are not required to look at any documents. They mostly make the decision off of DS-160 and they usually make the decision before the person even comes for the interview.
I think his chances of approval are low as his circumstances did not change, I really doubt fiancés letter will do anything. The two factors that contributed to the denial, in my view both from personal experience and being on the forum over the years, are: a) that your husband is paying for the trip - meaning your BIL doesn’t have sufficient finances to fund the trip, even though it sounds like his job should allow him to and b) that your husband adjusted from a non-immigrant visa (I’m assuming tourist but correct me if I’m wrong) which consular officer really really do not like. Even if it wasn’t B2, they generally really do not like when people adjust from a non-immigrant visas. A friend of mine’s mother was denied B2 when they found out her daughter (my friend) adjusted status from F1 (she did a change of status form B2 to F1) The COs face literally visibly changed and he promptly denied the visa.
My suggestion? Meet in a third country. My said friend had to meet in DR to see her mother after not seeing her for 7 years.
Of course he’s free to reapply. But personally, I don’t see the chances being very high. It’s your/his decision.

Calicolom got a reaction from NandV in B-2, Mother in Law trying again (denied the first time)
I think to many people forget, most paperwork is looked over by local staff. This means by local people hired by the embassy. They know every trick and costume of the local people.

All she did is protect herself, I give her credit. If more people would do this, there would be less disappointments.

Calicolom reacted to SteveInBostonI130 in Steps to Apply for Green Card being in the US (please read, need help!!!)
Your uncle cannot AOS because he entered without inspection.
If he leaves, he will get a multi-year bar.
Your uncle needs to consult an experienced immigration attorney.

You will get a stamp, in your passport, this tells you how long you can stay. Overstay, no more visa. Seems some people never travelled.
