Yep, I corrected it. Thanks!

Relationship to sponsor. Spouse of the (Joint) sponsor? Note: This comment was mistakenly edited.

If they file taxes jointly, it can be requested by USCIS or a consulate. Essentially, they are making sure that both parties are in agreement to the sponsorship. Good Luck!

Make a couple of copies of the extension letter. As the other responses have said, the original watermarked letter is required for re-entry, but sometimes airlines are unfamiliar and ask to retain a copy. Good Luck!

Developing story certainly. Huge power outage strikes Spain, Portugal and France: Entire cities plunged into blackouts, transport networks shut down and internet is cut off in scenes of mayhem All of Valencia and Barcelona were left without power, Spain's entire rail network shut down, internet services stopped working and there was chaos on the streets as traffic built up in Madrid and Lisbon. Madrid's Mayor has urged people to stay where they are as they deal with the disaster, while the president of the city's regional government has called for Spain's prime minister to activate an emergency plan so soldiers can be deployed. Videos online show railway networks in Spanish cities plunged into chaos, with people being evacuated through tunnels as blackouts hit underground stations and halted trains. Parts of France also lost power after the outages in Spain and Portugal, the country's grid operator confirmed. Further outages have been reported as far as Belgium, according to the latest information. The cause of the outages is not yet clear, with the Spanish government saying it is working to 'identify the origin'. A fire on the Alaric mountain in the south-west of France which damaged a high-voltage power line has also been identified as a possible cause, Portugal's national electric company REN said. A director at Spain's electricity grid operator said just before 3pm local time that the outage is 'exceptional and totally extraordinary' and will take between six and 10 hours to repair. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14655567/power-outage-Spain-Portugal-travel-chaos.html https://www.bbc.com/news/live/c9wpq8xrvd9t

You should be fine with the evidence your position and salary are continuing upon your repatriation to the US. Good Luck!

My wife also saw notices in both places. Usually it shows up online first. Good Luck!

Depends of course on the constitutionality of said executive action. The bigger question is related to how district judges can impose a nationwide injunction against said action. Beyond the executive branch proposing appointments to the Judicial Branch, and the Congress having the ability to approve the proposed appointment, or impeach a federal judge, that is about it. Congress also defines the judicial districts and the number of judges, and they could set term limits on the judges if they desired. Of course there is a deeper question between the 3 branches. Would we need so many executive actions if Congress actually did its job? We saw that being signaled in a couple of rulings in the last SCOTUS term taking away the executive departments ability to essentially clarify the vague law passed by Congress. Now this works both ways regardless of who is in charge of the WH. What it does do IMO is take power away for the unelected career bureaucrats that are just below the appointed folks. That is the question SCOTUS seems to be wrestling with right now. We shall see. There are a lot of problems with the current federal government in all branches. With the Executive, the bloated bureaucracy that is not answerable to anyone. Sure some of the department leaders go in front of a congressional committee, but do they actually say anything, and are congress members just trying to get in their sound bites for their next campaign? Then of course there is congress where everyone is just worried about sounding good, and collecting money for their next election. House members tend to start their re-election campaign the day after the last election unless they are already planning on retiring, then they just need to figure out ways to funnel campaign funds to their family members for their retirement. Additionally, the apportionment of congress is atrocious with an average of 750k people for each congress member. Why was the size of the House, our direct representatives, locked into 435? We are second worst for apportionment only surpassed by India. The 17th Amendment also screwed up what the founding fathers wanted relative to the Senate. Senators were never envisioned to be direct representatives of the people, but rather indirect through the legislatures of the states, but it is what it is. Lastly, the Judiciary. Nothing like a lifetime appointment to make someone feel above the law, hence we get a lot of the judges writing law from the bench (is that different than an EO?) at all levels.

I don't believe Mexico has price controls on drugs, but their regulations are different which may impact things such as purity of ingredients, etc. It is a multifaceted problem. I do my best to stay away from prescriptions if at all possible, and so far I have had good luck there.

I read a story once maybe 4-5 years ago that the almost 60% of the taxes for the UK's NHS went for administration vs actual healthcare. Not sure if that is better or worse, probably worse as government bureaucracies tend to move toward less efficiency generally. Now of course the big health insurance firms here in the US are also quite inefficient, but I suspect more efficient than government run insurance. I am also curious with respect to drug costs, if prices are higher in countries without price controls so drug companies can subsidize countries with price controls.

Actually, I did hear something about that as well. I cannot remember the source, but of course Zelenskyy is not Trump.

I imagine almost all of them will accept an AOS NOA for admission or changing from F1 to in-state. I assume a university in Iowa is your choice since that is what shows in your profile, I would check with your chosen school admission's department to verify as this is something they may not advertise. Good Luck!

You have a couple options. The cleanest IMO is to have your wife and her father each fill their own I864s and have her mother fill out an I864A even though her income is $0. I believe this is the cleanest as the AOS takes some time to process, and who knows if you and your wife will decide to move out to your own house or apartment before the AOS is finally decided. If you know for certain you will not be moving before the AOS is decided, she will still fill out an I864 and her father can fill out an I864A as a household member at the same principle address as the I864. Her mother should still fill out an I864A in either case. Good Luck!

Interesting take on socialism. Australia's universal healthcare is crumbling. Can it be saved? From an office perched on the scalloped edge of the continent, Victoria Bradley jokes that she has the most beautiful doctor's practice in Australia. Outside her window, farmland rolls into rocky coastline, hemming a glasslike bay striped with turquoise and populated by showboating dolphins. Home to about 3,000 people, a few shops, two roundabouts and a tiny hospital, Streaky Bay is an idyllic beach town. For Dr Bradley, though, it is anything but. The area's sole, permanent doctor, she spent years essentially on call 24/7. Running the hospital and the general practitioner (GP) clinic, life was a never-ending game of catch up. She'd do rounds at the wards before, after and in between regular appointments. Even on good days, lunch breaks were often a pipe dream. On bad days, a hospital emergency would blow up her already punishing schedule. Burnt out, two years ago she quit – and the thread holding together the remnants of the town's healthcare system snapped. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cnv56q82vnro

Impeach him?

To the OP, if there is no reason for CBP to think you are inadmissible, you should be fine once you have your AP. Good Luck!

Yep, file the I130 now, then after naturalization it should move from F2A to IR1, you may need to remind USCIS. Good Luck!

My wife took some ESL classes when she arrived, and it really helped her a lot, plus she met a few good friends. Good Luck!

Keep in mind that submitting an expedite request at USCIS (CSC) does not mean the expedite will continue through the entire process. If the expedite is approved at USCIS, you will need to submit another expedite request at the NVC stage after you submit all the required documents, and then again at the consulate. Good Luck!

I agree, you can request an expedite as it will not cause any issues. Keep in mind expedites if approved do not necessarily mean immediate. Good Luck!

Aren't those really hamburgers?

As others have said, photos are secondary evidence, and in our case, we submitted only a few, and took some more to the interview (not even looked at). As @Boiler stated, amount of time spent together, and the specific country are important to gauge what might be needed. Good Luck!

Simple response is to wait until visas are in your possession. You can certainly look at fares, but unless you are willing to pay extra for fully refundable tickets, you should wait. As to doing RT tickets, we did that for my now wife when she came over on her K1, and put the return date out as far as possible (6 months IIRC). Back then AOS was not taking quite so long, so she was able to use the return leg for a trip back to see her family after she received her GC. I believe you can cancel the return leg prior to the date and you will retain the credit less whatever the change fee is. Good Luck!

Beets are good for you.
