    You really need to contact the police, not USCIS. He's a domestic abuser and he's dangerous. Get in contact with resources for abused women and make sure his record of domestic violence is with the police. If he has threatened to kill you several times, he's a dangerous criminal and you need protection. Call the cops on him. 
     
    If he ends up serving time for the domestic violence and threatening to murder you, he will likely get deported. 
     
    Again, contact the police and make sure you're safe.

    make a police report and get him removed
    You don't want to scare us?  think of yourself and your kids gf
    a lazy man will never change
    a dangerous man (or woman)  is just that -dangerous
    pulling out a knife and threatening is as follows:
    Pointing a knife at someone is assault with a deadly weapon, unless the person has said or demonstrated that they intend to harm you. Go into the nearest open establishment and call the police.
    send the man to prison and let the state support him
    with a felony,  he will not be able to get citizenship

    How much is your life worth? I know thats a harsh statement but it seems like you can use a bit of tough love here. This man is dangerous and unstable. He is isolating you from your family and damaging your relationship with your kids. He is financially draining you.  Does he have access to guns? You need to get a restraining and have any guns removed from him. Your safety comes first. I know its hard. Personally I stayed in an abusive marriage for way too long out of fear and financial concerns. Its not worth it. It never is...
     
    Please check your SS earnings records. I am assuming you worked full time the entire marriage right? So that seems to be 7 years you could get 4Q for (28). It seems he worked 9 months and if those were all in the same calendar year he may have 1 yr- 4Q. If his 9 months spanned 2 calendar years he could possibly have 8Q. You need to check his SS statement as well. You can only access your own SS statement so have him log into the SS system with you for a nonsense reason like its related to getting a passport or taxes or health insurance. Check how many Q he can be credited with. Add up any he earned and any you earned during the marriage. From my estimates based on your posting you guys are at about 32 or 36 (or 8-9 yrs out of 10). You can and should separate right now. You did not specify which state you are in. Some states have a mandatory separation period of 1-2 years. Some dont. Either way you can have an extended separation before filing the divorce and then intentionally slow the divorce proceedings until he can be credited with 40Q. Who ever files for the divorce generally controls the speed of it. 
     
    Basically you file for divorce and serve him. He responds. You respond to his response. You can drag out your response time. You can argue about petty things. You just need to find a divorce attny that understands what your goal is and is able to stall efficiently. They can push back court dates for various reasons. Right now most courts are backed up so even if you filed today and wanted it done quickly its not going to happen.  You dont even need to have an official legal separation, you just need him removed from your home and your life. As long as you are still legally married any SS credits you earn he can claim. If he is forced out of the home and takes various welfare benefits then yes you will be on the hook to repay them but it would be a minimal amount because there is really only 1-2 years he could potentially collect said benefits that you would need to repay. He can not sue you for support under the 864 as long as you are still married as far as I know because when you are married your assets and finances are still considered joint. You can speak with an 864 attny for confirmation of such but if I am incorrect I dont think it matters much. For him to sue you on the 864 would be a long drawn out process. Most definitely it would take 1-2 years and again by that time if you remain married he will have 40Q so the affidavit would end. 
     
    But PLEASE seek a restraining order. Do it for yourself. Do it for your children. I promise you if spoke with your adult children about this (or other friends or relatives) they would agree 100% and support you emotionally and financially if needed. 
     
     
    (FYI for general information to anyone reading- when someone threatens to shoot up a place you dont call immigration. You call the police or sheriff. They take threats like that very seriously.)

    1.  Protect yourself physically and financially (GET A DIVORVE ATTORNEY!!!)
    2.  Avoid any contact with him.
    3.  Divorce him....
    4.  Move on with your life.  His immigration status is out of your control.
    You should have already had him locked up in my opinion.  He seems to be a very dangerous individual
     
    Just my opinion.

    EireneFaith reacted to aaron2020 in USC Mother petitioning unmarried and over 21 daughter w/ kids   
    Hi,
     
    1.  Choice of Agent is not used anymore because your mother can register her email with the NVC for notifications.  The Fees tab is grayed out because your sister's case is has not reached that stage.  Once her PD becomes current in Table B of the Visa Bulletin, your mother can pay the fee.  She can expect access in about 4 years.  
    2.  Yes, it's F11 since your mother is now a US citizen.  However, your mother never notified USCIS or the NVC to upgrade the case and provide proof that she's a US citizen, so your sister's case is still being handled as if your mother is an LPR.
    3.  You can the children's name when the NVC allows for fees to be paid.  After the fees are paid, then birth certificates can be uploaded.
    4.  Yes so the NVC can properly classify this as an F1 case.
     
    Under CSPA, your mother can ask for retention of the F2b category.  Once requested, she can't undo it.  So wait and see whether the F1 category or the F2b category moves faster, then choose appropriately.

    Best of luck.

    Being in the military does not grant an LPR the right to petition for a parent.  Your I-130 will be denied.  Only a US citizen can file for a parent.  There are no exceptions.  

    Being from Nigeria, her chances for a visitor visa will be difficult (especially since she has immigrant intent by you filing an I-130 for her).

    You military status and filling I-130 for you mom is not related. The military status only help you naturalization faster . The basic requirement to file for parents is the petitioner must be a U.S citizens. You can't file a petition for parents until you become U.S Citizens. Seems like you talking about a B1/B2 visa for you mom to visit and wait until you naturalization, so she can adjust status?

    Yup. Regardless... Hopefully OP understands that CSPA is a defined calculation under law and the derivative either qualifies, or not. It is not a case of how to write a letter.  Without knowing the relevant dates, it is impossible to advise whether or not they need to move forward with getting nephew/brother/whoever added back to the case.

    For what reason would the applicant fail the interview?  What do you mean leave the baby and husband behind -- is this for K1 visa or AOS interview?  If K1, the intending immigrant shouldn't be married yet.
     
    In any case, it doesn't matter where the immigrant is from or what their native language is.

    Well, it’s illegal to work on a B visa. You can travel and blog until 28 January. Be careful not to violate the terms of your visa or overstay, or you may never be able to return as another B (or other non immigrant visa) would then be extremely unlikely.

    What you're saying doesn't make any sense.

    You also mentioned a job opportunity at a regular shop.  Why ask about this if you are a travel blogger?  
     
    You also mentioned asylum.  Why ask about asylum when you are a travel blogger and have no interest in living here in the US?  That definitely doesn't make sense

    There is absolutely no way for you to live or work in the US on a tourist visa.  

    You could file for a visa extension.  You will need to show why you need more time for tourism in the US.  No one can tell you if you will get approved or denied.  The answer will not come until many months after your I-94 expires.  If it is denied, you are unlikely to ever get another tourist visa.
     
    The best way for you to get more time in the US is to abide by your admission to the US.  Leave before your I-94 expires.  Apply for another tourist visa.
     
    Good luck.

    If that normal shop that offered you a job doesn't already have an immigration lawyer on retainer, I seriously doubt they qualify to sponsor you for a work visa.  You didn't mention anything about being persecuted or in danger if you return home, so seeking asylum is probably a no-go.  It seems like the only legal option for you right now is to book a flight back to Dubai and return before your I-94 expires.

    “A normal shop” job will not qualify for a work visa. 
     
    If you were given a single entry and you clearly want to stay, it is very highly likely any extension will be denied.

    Divorce is not a reason for denial.
    Should you receive a denial for lack of evidence, the onus in immigration court (when it finally gets there, probably after a few years) is for USCIS to demonstrate how it was not a good faith marriage, which is difficult.
    You cannot provide evidence that does not exist, so all you can do is send what you have.
    Marriage statistics back you up in that many do not work out for a whole host of reasons - there is no shame in that, nor should it be held against you. 

    Finally, as you filing with a divorce waiver and are fully divorced, you can file at any time - it does not have to be in the 90 day window. You could have filed immediately upon the divorce being final, and you could file tomorrow if you so desire.
     
    You are here, you can work, travel and have rights as a LPR throughout this whole upcoming process, so file it and then for the most part forget about it for a while..it is a slow process.
    Take it from me, worrying about it will drive you insane.

    Yup, but no IR for a son over 21, that is F1. In fact the USC petition for over 21 unmarried children is currently the only one where the wait is longer than for an LPR petitioning the same type of relative.  If it is shorter by then and brother doesn’t have a visa yet the father will just upgrade the existing F2B to F1, there will be the option of retaining F2B if it is still quicker at that stage.
