Wife sponsored a sibling back in 2016~2017. I know the actual case can take 15-20 years, but should we expect anything beyond the NOA1 at this point?

You have to put some type of Pakistani address. Usually it is your home or one of a close relative (where you would presumably stay if you were to ever visit Pakistan). That's just how the system is made. It is like ID cards or DLs in the US. And before you say "bUt I LiVe iN aMeRiCa", that's just how the system works.
-
It has both addresses because it functions as a standard Pakistani ID card within Pakistan.

No harm in applying for K3 since there is no fee. There is a greater than zero probability that it helps.

They will technically have to remarry their spouse so there is a new marriage date. Note this is very complicated because of Pakistani divorce laws.

Do I need to register marriage in my home country?
pm5k replied to Greenlight's topic in Asia: South
Pakistan does not require a marriage to be registered locally. You and your spouse should update your ID cards (using your South African marriage certificate) to show married status. That is the only "local" requirement. -
I meant to say that only citizens get it, so if one renounces, they do not get a NICOP. They can get a POC instead.

Didn't you get it under the LIFE act or something?

I know people who stayed single into their 40s because their LPR parents sponsored them....

Confusion for a question in IR5
pm5k replied to mnoman's topic in Bringing Family Members of US Citizens to America
You enter the applicable information but write "DECEASED" regarding residence. -
The majority of people keep their Pakistani citizenship unintentionally. That is to say, most assume that it went away when they naturalize in the US, but this is not true. So between those cases, and those who choose to maintain NICOPs, the majority do not renounce their Pakistani citizenship.
-
NICOPs are ID cards given to CITIZENS.
-
I keep hearing "22 months", where does this come from?
-
You can try to correct it via the Pakistan Citizen Portal app

What is missing?
-
Circling back here, in case anyone is in this situation. It seems like writing "Pakistan" on the I-130 will prompt USCIS/NVC to later request Pakistani documents. Writing "Bangladesh" will prompt them to request Bangladeshi documents if there is an RFE. In the absence of the I-130 instructions specifying current country of sovereignty vs historical, it seems like one could write what matches their birth certificate as suggested by @Yuliya Lipina YMMV.
-
Not required if the OP has a valid Union Council birth certificate, which they say they do
-
1. Was the I-130 approved, or still pending? 2. Everything depends on the above question, even those who are currently under 21.

I knew people who were sponsored by parents and stayed single into their 40s because they did not want to be ineligible for the GC...

Where did you get married? use the document issued in that country

EITC year of immigrating to the US
pm5k replied to pm5k's topic in Tax & Finances During US Immigration
Does anyone know? -
If someone immigrates to the US in March, and begins working, can they obtain the EITC for this first year? There is a question about being an LPR all year or not. I know if someone gets married (even on December 30), they file married for that year. If this were the case, then the person would be a LPR "all year" but I wanted to check if this was indeed the case for EITC or not.
