Not that I have heard of as long as the “consummation” occurs prior to filing the I130 which you are already aware of, and you have good evidence to prove that. I would expect more scrutiny with respect to your previous situation, but it appears you have that well in hand and have remedied it to the best of your ability. Good Luck!

Good luck trying to figure out how USCIS processes cases. I know it is frustrating to see other contemporary cases completed while your’s is still in process, but there are many factors involved. Each case is individual, and some may require more attention than others, also it is not clear within USCIS if they re-assign cases if a clerk/IO is on vacation, or out. It does seem that USCIS tries to somewhat balance the workload, but like in any relatively large government bureaucracy, who really knows what parameters are used. Good Luck!

One thing I learned yesterday at our cousin’s oath ceremony is that the judge is not scheduled (at least in Detroit) for an hour after the time stated on the interview NOA. My cousin’s notice stated 2pm, but the judge showed up at 3:15pm and apologized for being 15 minutes late. Apparently the notice time is when future citizens need to be in line to check in.

This applies to US immigration proceedings. That being said, he may want to take any relevant information regarding his Swedish immigration proceedings with him to the eventual interview. Good Luck!

It is unfortunate you didn’t choose Option 2. Our cousins are taking their oath today about 3-4 weeks after their interview with a name change. Regardless, congrats on you wife’s naturalization!

If you as the USC have a reason to relocate back to the U.S. on relatively short notice, you can request the consulate in the country you are currently in to process the I130. This is referred to as Direct Consular Filing (DCF) under exceptional circumstances. If the I130 is submitted to USCIS, DCF will no longer be an option, but you can request expedited processing at the various stage of that process. I would do research on DCF as there are many that have taken this route. The VJ search engine can be helpful with that research. Good Luck! https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-6-part-b-chapter-3

Figured that would be a bit of a dog whistle.

Maybe we should be holding these prosecutors and judges personally responsible for their actions. It is time to end any shields from lawsuits for those in these positions.

Even if the funding does go through I really doubt there will be any changes. For some reason the political elite in DC think this is a replay of Charlie Wilson's War, but it is way different, and at some point given all the manpower losses in Ukraine, Zelenskyy will be requesting troops. Not sure where they are going to come from, but one thing is for certain, ever since the DC establishment regained control of the WH through Old Corrupt Joe, the world has deteriorated quite drastically.

A clear picture of the mindset of the DC elite regardless of Party. They are definitely circling the wagons in DC.

Why don't they mention Mr. Hogg's failed business attempts? Regardless, you are right, Mr. Hogg is quite a petulant activist.

Gotta love government rules made by people that have no clue. The farmers’ revolt comes to Wales It is clear that the ministers in Cardiff Bay are unaware of the realities of farming. Welsh rural-affairs minister Lesley Griffiths squirmed last week under questioning from the Farmers Guardian newspaper. It had not seemed to occur to her that farmers will be forced to make their businesses less productive in order to receive the government payout. The scheme is expected to cost farms around 5,000 jobs and an 11 per cent loss of livestock. If the Sustainable Farming Scheme wasn’t bad enough, Welsh farmers are also battling against Cardiff’s nonsensical bovine tuberculosis (bTB) policy. The control of bTB is, rightly, an animal-health priority. But as the infection crosses between species, it is proving impossible to limit its spread without dealing with the main source of the illness – namely, the wild badger population. In England and Ireland, it is recognised that limited badger culls, as well as immunisation, can reduce the spread of the disease. In Wales, however, the government has opted to cull livestock instead of culling the cuter-looking badgers. Perhaps this strategy could prove successful, in that there won’t be any bovine TB if there are no more cows left to catch it. https://www.spiked-online.com/2024/02/20/the-farmers-revolt-comes-to-wales/

Listened to this, he has some great points starting around 6:30 minutes in.

This should not be an issue with a B2 application as your mother applies on her own accord and although she will need to list any relatives living in the US, there is no need to prove a relationship with evidence. As to an eventual IR5, you sibling will need to prove this is their mother usually through a birth certificate showing the mother and the name of the child. If the name differences become an issue, there is always the possibility of DNA testing. Good Luck!

When Progressives demonstrate their racism. Can job postings in Canada exclude white people? Short answer: yes In two recent job postings for Canada Research Chairs in computer science at the University of Waterloo, applications are restricted for those who identify as “women, transgender, gender-fluid, non-binary, or Two-spirit” in the first case, and to members “of a racialized minority” for the second. In the past, these sorts of job postings have led to controversy, with some claiming they’re examples of “reverse racism” or that they show the end of hiring based on merit and education, in favour of immutable characteristics. But, it turns out this sort of hiring is normal for Canada Research Chairs. Actually, it’s normal for a variety of industries for various reasons. https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/can-job-postings-in-canada-exclude-white-people-short-answer-yes

Apparently they could not hold out. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/brown-university-students-continue-hunger-strike-over-treatment-of-palestinians/ar-BB1i23fn

I agree. Trump was a big D supporter on the NYC/Manhattan party circuit, but as we see with all Democrat endeavors, when you leave the reservation, the Dems are much more vengeful than any scorned woman. Heck, look what happens to anyone that should be part of one of the Democrat political identity categories, but speaks out against it.

I would date them with the date they were written. If you are not financially responsible for your housemates, it should not impact anything. Good Luck!

I'll take things that never happened for $1000 Alex. Regardless, as this article stated, Ukraine is low on ammo and manpower, the only way they win this is if NATO, and mostly the US commit boots on the ground. ‘There’s only Plan A': Defense leaders fear failure in Ukraine MUNICH — Four American senators recounted a story Ukrainian officials told them at the Munich Security Conference: A soldier in a muddy trench with Russian artillery exploding nearby, scrolling on his phone for signs the U.S. House would approve military aid. https://www.politico.com/news/2024/02/18/munich-ukraine-security-conference-00142077

For my now wife and I when we were going through the K1 process, we mentioned how we met in our personal statements. Good Luck!

Because K1s and spousal visas are taking about the same amount of time, and a spousal visa is much more superior than the K1 particularly when it comes to the beneficiary, but also cost.

Use the address associated with your method of transmitting the form (USPS vs the private couriers), don't confuse entities like USCIS. The key here is the first statement. If she is not here currently, ignore this section. Not that I know of, this is similar to how I found my now wife, we started on a website, and used its system for about 2 messages and quickly transitioned to private email and video chats. I agree with @Boiler, have you considered a spousal visa? Good Luck!

Nope, the I134s from both yourself and your joint sponsor will come at the consulate phase of the process. Good Luck!

I wonder why this flight turned around? Apparently the person that brought this stuff on board was only cultivating their lunch. Delta flight forced back to Amsterdam after maggots fall onto passenger https://www.cnn.com/travel/maggots-delta-flight-turnaround-amsterdam/index.html

All this caterwauling about weather events is so disingenuous.
