I find it a little hard to believe that 97% of their wildfires are due to human sources. Lightning plays a huge role based on my experience.

Is there a problem with mailing it to the address specified? Another route would be to make a trip to the US, and then give the form to CBP office when leaving. Good Luck!

This is a great point! I know I prefer a much lower profile!

Based on the information provided, it appears she aged out.

There are a few nuances that could come back to bite this couple. The OP says they disclosed the online marriage to the consulate, but was it disclosed to CBP when attempting to enter on the K1. Usually, when a K1 visa holder requests entry into the US, they get a question about marrying, and information regarding the terms of the K1 visa and the fact that they are not required to actually get married, or forced to be married. How did the OP's spouse respond to those questions when entering on the K1. Did they inform the CBP officer they are already married ? Would they have been allowed entry with the K1, or turned around? We shall see how this plays out. Best case, they only need to include an I130 with their AOS package. Worst case, the IO notices the date discrepancies, and digs deeper.

I agree with the others that this should not be an issue relative to your LPR status. I also agree, you should look to protect yourself by getting a legal divorce. Good Luck!

Yeah, that will be a tough one to enforce. Heck, will they not allow him a gas can for lawn equipment?

Might be related to those ceremonies being in person, and not remote or by proxy. I think @W199 might have a point that AOS might be a challenge based on the dates. I would definitely have a lawyer review everything here.

I assume when you say “work permit” you mean the I485 package.

Since the I134 is not required at the I129F stage, so no need to mention anything about a joint sponsor at that point. As to using scanned documents, YMMV. Back when my wife and I went through the K1 application, we used scanned documents, but there are stories where some consulates are more strict. Good Luck!

We need a new upvote emoji. 🤮 I noticed the Trump Epstein photo was prominently displayed.

Great review, hopefully you hear back soon.

Wow, something that makes sense. Thanks for the follow up.

What type of visa is being pursued?

I agree, if the AP is not received, I would not stay outside of the US for more than a year as an LPR given the current environment. Good Luck!

Sure they can apply for a renewal of their B2s. Whether the pending I130's will have an impact is hard to predict. Good Luck!

I guess what I mean is will an IJ order an immigrant removed who is awaiting a valid AOS adjudication without any other reason other than the overstay caused by the slow speed of the AOS process?

Yes, it really depends on how an IJ will be guided.

Hard to say really, but I know I usually have to have a letter when I submit an application for a business visa telling some nameless bureaucrat my trip costs will be covered. As to Canucks, that is a good question. Maybe open a tab at a PoE? I would hope it will not result in Canadians being required to do ESTA or something like that.

This one is not clear. So are they saying someone minding their business awaiting an AOS either via a K1, or I130 (left out employment based as those folks will have status) in a period of authorized stay are just going to be put in removal proceedings without a reason? Won't an IJ want a reason?

My guess is one time as any overstay would result in the visa being canceled. Of course we are talking about a bureaucracy.

Isn't that why the bond rates were graduated? It is unclear how that will be decided though, so who knows.

I doubt that will ever happen as there are always going to be exceptions, so what would you still carve out? Personally, I like this plan of bonding for an NIV, and would like to see how this trial works (it is not clear if it would still restrict AOS from an NIV). I am not fond of being restricted to specific PoEs, and would be curious as to why those. We shall see how it goes, but my wife and I would have gladly paid the bond for her to come and visit on a B2 prior to her eventual immigration just to make sure she could deal with a a move to the US. It worked out for us regardless, but how many stories have we heard where the foreign spouse, or SO really could not adjust and the USC spouse or SO did not really help.

Well you know what her initials are.

Going to put this here. It is amazing the way the extreme left will spin things, but whatever. It is ironic that this gathering is happening in the UK. I guess as long as they don't protest the UK government or their "progressive" polices they will be fine. The other thing I find ironic in this piece is the name of the political party "Socialist Equality Party". I know, in socialism, everyone is equal, but of course some are more equal than others. Trump’s war on free speech: The case of Momodou Taal Trump now declares that he has no obligation to uphold his oath of office to protect the constitution of the United States, openly declaring that the American people will no longer have any of the rights they have won over generations of struggle spanning 250 years. Our speakers will pose and answer the question, “Is America going fascist?” They will explain that Trump’s regime poses a threat to the working class all over the world. They will place his offensive in the context of his threats to annex Canada, Greenland, the Panama Canal and Mexico, including by military force, while colluding with Israel’s plans to complete the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, and his turn to trade war measures targeting China that are driving humanity ever closer to a new world war. The meeting will outline a strategy on which the working class in America and internationally can mobilise to defeat not just Trump but the turn by capitalist governments the world over to state repression, savage austerity and military violence. They will also explain why it is that Starmer’s Labour government in the UK has emerged as the chief accomplice of Trump’s repression of anti-genocide protests. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2025/05/07/oplh-m07.html
