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

I know, it is fairly redundant to say petulant and leftist together.

Jon Stewart is a very well known petulant leftist. Add to that a gaslighting hypocrite. I wonder if Ms. James will be going after him. Jon Stewart benefited by 829% ‘overvalue’ of his NYC home even as he labels Trump’s civil case ‘not victimless’ But it didn’t take long for internet sleuths to look into Stewart’s own property history, which shows his New York City penthouse sold for 829% more than its assessed value, records confirmed by The Post reveal. In 2014, Stewart sold his 6,280-square-foot Tribeca duplex to financier Parag Pande for $17.5 million. The property’s asking price at that time is not available in listing records. But according to 2013-2014 assessor records obtained by The Post, the property had the estimated market-value at only $1.882 million. The actual assessor valuation was even lower, at $847,174. Records also show that Stewart paid significantly lower property taxes, which were calculated based on that assessor valuation price — precisely what he called Trump out for doing in his Monday monologue. https://nypost.com/2024/03/27/real-estate/jon-stewart-found-to-have-overvalued-his-nyc-home-by-829/

The Leftist MSM hypocrisy is very evident at least for those that actually have an open mind. Ronna McDaniel’s NBC News firing is must-see-tv that proves leftist media set rules they never follow Jen Psaki, recently released from her role as professional prevaricator on behalf of the White House (“Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo”) told us earnestly that all she has ever done is “serve the American people,” unlike that liar McDaniel: “This isn’t about red versus blue. This is about truth versus lies. Service to the country versus service to one man committed to toppling our democratic system . . . Our democracy is in danger because of the lies that people like Ronna McDaniel have pushed on this country.” Then with a straight face she quoted Liz Cheney, Bush II’s WMD-pushing VP ####### Cheney’s daughter, now an MSNBC darling. That figures, considering Wallace of the sacred airwaves was White House communications director and apologist for that administration’s Iraq war lies. You really can’t make it up. “Bad decisions will inevitably happen,” Rachel Maddow opined, addressing her bosses at NBC HQ who reportedly pay her $30 million a year for one show a week. https://nypost.com/2024/03/27/opinion/ronna-mcdaniels-nbc-news-firing-is-must-see-tv-that-proves-leftist-media-set-rules-they-never-follow/

So the bosses at NBC bowed to the activist mob? I agree, it was sort of an insurrection in the news room at 30 Rock.

I would create a separate account for the child.

What is the difference here? NBC fires someone that may not be supportive of Biden, and the other does the opposite.

So the question is did the local pilots dismiss the tugs or the ship's captain. I am not an expert sailor, but I thought when the ship was under control of local pilots they had full control within the waters they are paid to pilot. Regardless, it is not known if the tugs could have really done anything in this situation.
