One wonders if more people submit an I129F in conjunction with an I130 would USCIS push the I129Fs faster to lead to more K3’s and more AOS fees.

I thought this was interesting and free speech related. I also did an experiment running the search “Remember the San Bernardino 14” on both Bing and Google and the results were interesting. Bing’s first result was the article mentioned, and Google returned this “ It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search Try using words that might appear on the page you’re looking for. For example, "cake recipes" instead of "how to make a cake."” Progress? Google Warns Freedom Center to Censor Mentions of Islamic Terror But the Google AdSense rejection told us what we could do to make our way into the good graces of the company that dominates online search and advertising, controlling what much of the country and the world sees. All we had to do was stop talking about Islamic terrorism. According to Google AdSense, our “entire site” contained “dangerous or derogatory content”, as did David Horowitz’s writing in particular, but one of the sample pages that the company claimed contained forbidden content was an article about the San Bernardino Muslim terrorist attack. The article, “Remember The San Bernardino Fourteen” by Lloyd Billingsley, like a lot of our articles, is blocked in Google Search. The Front Page article doesn’t come up when you type in its name. It doesn’t even appear when you do a site search for the exact title in quotation marks that has been entirely limited to the Front Page Magazine site. That means that Google likely specifically excluded it. And it’s far from the only one of our articles banned by Google. https://www.frontpagemag.com/google-warns-freedom-center-to-censor-mentions-of-islamic-terror/

Hmm, a bunch of bureaucrats going after food production. I guess they fell safe sort of like KJU. The fury of Europe’s farmers All of this has been done with the approval and encouragement of the EU. And there is worse to come in the Netherlands and beyond. The absurd nitrogen rules that are threatening Dutch farms come from an EU environmental directive that dates back to the 1990s. But the EU’s eco-mania has intensified massively since then. Farmers now have to contend with the drive to Net Zero, too. According to Laurence Tubiana, chief executive of the European Climate Foundation and the architect of the Paris Climate accords, Net Zero will require ‘the biggest overhaul of farming since the Second World War’. And yet, once again, farmers haven’t been consulted on this. Targets have simply been drawn up by the technocrats and rubber stamped by national governments, without any consideration for their impact on farmers and their ability to produce food. Under the EU’s so-called Green Deal, every EU member state has to reach Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050. And the EU’s emissions rules for agriculture are especially, insanely, stringent. The punishing green policies don’t stop there, either. The Farm to Fork strategy, announced in 2020, calls for 10 per cent of farmland to be set aside for non-agricultural use. It says that at least a quarter of EU farms should become organic. It says fertiliser use must fall by 20 per cent. Pesticide use must be cut by 50 per cent. And all of this should be done by 2030. Each of these demands would be enough to put thousands of farms out of business on their own. When combined, they pose an existential threat to European agriculture. And if the EU’s laws weren’t bad enough, member states are actually gold plating these regulations. The EU had already demanded the impossible of farmers. Now national elites in Berlin, Paris and The Hague want to go even further. This is why farmers are out on the streets across the continent. It’s why they’re taking matters into their own hands. It’s why they feel they have no choice but to block roads with their tractors, bring life to a standstill and dowse public buildings with manure. They are determined to remind the powers-that-be just how essential they are to the functioning of modern life. At first, the elites tried to dismiss the protests. They resorted to their usual playbook. They called the farmers fascists, far right and pawns of online disinformation. But this propaganda campaign has flopped. Not only have these smears failed to demoralise the farmers, they have also failed to turn the public against the protests. In country after country, European peoples are backing their farmers, even as the protests disrupt daily life. https://www.spiked-online.com/2024/04/01/the-fury-of-europes-farmers/

We all know who will pay.

More from the leftist activist “journalists” at the Peacock network. So the Judges daughter is an adult and a rabid Democrat political activist, no conflict of interest here. MSNBC host Nicole Wallace defiantly throws her script in reaction to Trump calling out judge's daughter: 'We're not going to have this conversation again!' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13257369/MSNBC-host-throws-script-Trump-judge-daughter.html

If he is a green card holder and has to leave the U.S. for two years, he can apply for a re-entry permit prior to leaving.

You should be fine as the absence was less than 6 months. Good Luck!

As @Crazy Cat mentioned, it is easy to delay cases at the NVC stage to fit your schedule. Good Luck!

the consulate will issue the visa based on the date of your marriage and the date your visa is issued. So if you are married less than 2 years when the visa is issued it will say CR1, if over 2 years, then IR1. That being said, a CR1 will convert to an IR1 if you enter the U.S. after your 2nd wedding anniversary. Yes, at the discretion of CBP.

I would not worry about the DS260 as you are looking at 9+ years before you will need to fill that out. If you get a renewed B2 you should be fine unless you give CBP reason to believe you will overstay when you attempt to enter. Good Luck!

You will need to have the BC for the filing, but if you cannot get it you have an alternative. Q: Do I have to submit a birth certificate with I-485 filing? A: Yes, birth certificate is required for initial submission. If you do not have a birth certificate, you may instead submit two affidavits from family members including your parents and school or religious records that have your name, your parents’ name and your date of birth. USCIS will need non-availability certificate confirming your birth certificate is not registered but it makes take some time to get that document because of COVID-19. You should at least submit school records and two affidavits from family members who are older that you and have personal knowledge of your birth. We will provide templates for affidavits. https://bizlegalservices.com/i-140-and-i-485-petitions/i-485-related-faqs/#:~:text=If you do not have a birth certificate%2C,your parents’ name and your date of birth.

It is fairly difficult to update an I130 that is in process. You could try sending a letter with the receipt number from the filing to the address listed on that receipt, and maybe it will make it to your case. Otherwise either deal with the RFE (probably won’t get it for this type of issue), or your spouse can provide the update at the visa interview. Good Luck!

And make sure you list the name n your BC in the section other names used even if you never really used it. Good Luck!

I agree with what @OldUser stated. Your legal name change documents will supersede the name on your BC. As long as you have that documentation, USCIS should be satisfied. Think about it like people that change their name using a valid marriage certificate, these people do not go back and change their BC’s, and they are fine with USCIS. Good Luck!

If you have valid documents showing a legal name change you should be fine.

Gotta love woke “progress”. Opinion | DEI Got Me Sacked From My Nursing Job I’ve been a registered nurse for 16 years. In 2021 I began working in the emergency department at Meritus Medical Center in Hagerstown, Md., rising to assistant clinical manager in February 2023. Since I oversaw nurses, my highest priority after providing the best care to patients was protecting my team. That’s what got me into trouble. Like many states, Maryland has been foisting DEI courses on medical professionals for several years. Since 2022 the state has required that all healthcare professionals take “implicit bias” training, largely in response to worries about black maternal mortality. The state has also committed to reducing disparities in severe maternal morbidity between black and white women over the next three years. My hospital began using a course called “B.I.R.T.H Equity Maryland,” which stands for Breaking Inequality Reimagining Transformative Healthcare. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/opinion-dei-got-me-sacked-from-my-nursing-job/ar-BB1jYaWr

Makes sense. Riley Gaines, female athletes sue NCAA for letting men compete against women Women's sports advocate Riley Gaines has joined over a dozen female athletes in filing a lawsuit accusing the National Collegiate Athletics Association of violating Title IX civil rights law by forcing them to compete against and share a locker room with trans-identified males. The Independent Council on Women's Sports announced Thursday that it's funding the lawsuit on behalf of 16 former and current female collegiate athletes, including Gaines. The athletes are challenging the NCAA regulations that have allowed males who identify as female, such as NCAA champion swimmer Lia (Will) Thomas, to compete in women's sports. "By challenging the NCAA's draconian and discriminatory policies, we're sending a clear message: the integrity of women's sports is non-negotiable," ICONS co-founder Kim Jones stated. "We are committed to defending the hard-won rights of women athletes everywhere. This isn't just a legal battle; it's a moral stand for equality and justice in sports." https://www.christianpost.com/news/riley-gaines-female-athletes-sue-ncaa-for-letting-males-compete.html

Still just ultra dense carbon, and we are told carbon is bad.

Take a copy of his passport bio page with you to prove he is a USC. Worst case, the document is asked for (highly unlikely IMO), and you get it in a few weeks to respond to the RFE, best case, USCIS already has the information and you have no issues. Good Luck! And Relax!

I always do this, must be a psycho.

Brings back memories of Reagan. “I’m from the government and I’m here to help”.

We saw something similar several years ago when a Yugo was blown off the Mackinac Bridge. There were studies to change the railing system to something like a Jersey barrier to reduce road level wind. In the end, the engineers won out as this bridge was designed and built after the lessons learned from the first Tacoma Narrows suspension bridge to allow the span to be more of a wing in the wind by using tubular open side rails and inside lanes of steel mesh. What was done though was to change what wind conditions would lead to a temporary closure of the bridge.

That is always a major factor when it comes to infrastructure spending, but there are others such as technology at the time, ability to please all stakeholders of the project, etc.

I agree, I don't think either of these would be an issue now. I think the proof of ongoing visits particularly after your wedding, and the fact that you are outside the consulate awaiting the outcome of the interview will be positives in your case. Good Luck!

Sums it up fairly well. Hamas is playing the West - opinion SCHUMER’S STATEMENTS send a message to Iran and its terror proxies that America has thrown Israel under the bus. So, it should be no surprise to anyone that the Hamas leadership is in no rush to free the hostages. Hamas’s Ismail Haniyeh and his cohorts undoubtedly see Schumer’s anti-Israel remarks as further indication of the mounting US and international pressure to end the war. Simply put, the way that Hamas leaders see it is “if we just wait a little longer, Israel will be forced to stop the war due to international pressure and threats.” Schumer’s feelings toward Netanyahu are irrelevant – what matters is that the timing of his attack has sabotaged the mediation efforts to secure the release of the hostages. Whatever the price was prior to his statements, it just went up by a lot. Hamas will now buckle down and harden their position because they believe they have allies in Washington and other Western capitals and because, well… they can. https://www.jpost.com/opinion/article-794066
