Looks like more losing by the people. 'Old Magoo': Elections Over, German Government Launches Nat'l Snitch Line The Stas...there I go again. Dammit - it's early. The democratically elected German government is, in fact, launching a two-pronged effort - either online or by phone - to afford their citizens avenues for 'advice' on how to deal with conspiracy freaks. Those in their personal lives or even ones of accidental acquaintance who speak such strange and terrifying sentiments not approved by polite society that a good German might be...alarmed by the utterances. Or upsetting emails. And not know where to turn for advice on how to respond, if they even should. https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2025/02/28/old-magoo-elections-over-german-government-launches-natl-snitch-line-n3800276

The husband still needs to sign an I864.

The use of the term "inning" feels pretty loose, can't those last days during a Test match?

This is a new one for @Crazy Cat and his book. To the OP, the obvious question is what does she want to do? All you can do is inform her, what she does with that information is up to her. That being said, it is a sad state.

Woman???

I forgot to mention Mammoth Cave, and Great Smoky Mountains NPs. We really liked both, but Great Smoky Mountains was an absolute zoo, but did have some nice trails. Mammoth Cave was also great, loved the little river ferry and the trails on the other side of the river were great. I also think I forgot New River Gorge in WV. Amazing trails.

Since we have a bit of a UK/Aussie thing going on right now, I thought I would add my fascination with cricket. I was on a trip to Australia back in 2010 when the Ashes were going on. It is an interesting game, and took me a few to figure out the basics, but quite interesting. What I could not figure out is what constituted a complete game.

How does a B2 applicant prove they do not have immigration intent? I know, impossible to prove a negative, but maybe through chats, social media etc. I don’t really know for certain, but I don’t want to penalize someone that had a real major change of circumstances.

Sort of like the DoS by law assumes anyone applying for a NIV has immigration intent, let the IO assume anyone AOSing from a B2 et. al., have preconceived a plan to do this when entering the U.S. during an AOS interview. The beneficiary, then has the burden of proof to show there was no pre-planning. So sort of like a second entry inspection if the decision is made to AOS on a NIV.

OK, so you seem to be saying that the people in Russia are evil. That is just a little to generalized for my tastes. Yes, Putin is a thug who does not want to give up power, he is corrupt and thrives on power, but don't paint everyone in Russia as Putinites. Sure a lot of folks there do like a strong leader no matter how it looks to the enlightened Davos crowd. Most people in Russia understand that the MSM in both the US and EU as well as the establishment , types and deep state folks need a bogeyman to blame for their failures, so now we are getting the "Trump is a Putin stooge" narrative wash, rinse, repeat treatment from the neocons that love all wars (that they can watch from afar), and the Democrat allies. Whatever, I am all for ending this war, there is too many young people dying which is not going to benefit either Ukraine, or Russia, and no Putin is not going to attack another country (particularly a NATO member), he is not that stupid.

In US Public Schools?

That is really an interesting take. I must admit when I first joined VJ, I had fairly strong feelings about AOS from B2/ESTA et. al., but those have changed over time. I know, it allows people to jump the line, and more than likely 80% or more of the couples or people (other IRs) doing it probably decided to do it before entering the US, but there are times when it is really necessary. My thought is that Congress needs to change the law to allow an AOS interview to also include another entry interview and the beneficiary (and petitioner) has to prove there was no pre-planning to this.

I have mixed feelings about this case as it appears the subject actually did succeed on her own eventually. So yes, apparently early in her schooling she was promoted even lacking reading and writing skills, but that changed eventually. As to the lawsuit, if she is only doing it to bring awareness I am fine with that, but if she is doing it for her own personal payday, then I think less of it. Sure the school failed her early on, but she also learned she could do it on her own and didn't need a handout.

Just release it and stop the political teasing.

Detroit is actually a very comfortable PoE. The international arrivals area is not too busy, and the airport generally gets your luggage to you relatively quickly. I remember when my wife (at that time fiancé) arrived on her K1, it took only maybe 15-20 minutes for her to get through CBP at Detroit. Are you connecting in Detroit, or is that your final destination? Good Luck!

Leave it to Democrats to pass irreconcilable laws based on hopes and dreams. Is anyone really surprised this happens in NY? Amicus Brief Filed In Glen Oaks Village Owners v. City Of New York Meanwhile, New York State’s Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act of 2019 (Climate Act) remains on the books. That statute commands the complete restructuring of New York’s energy economy to reach “net zero” greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, with a most immediate first deadline of 70% of electricity generation from “renewables” by 2030. They never had a credible plan to achieve that, but they pretended they were going to do most of it with the big offshore wind buildout. Now that that is dead, they don’t even have a fake plan. And also meanwhile, New York City’s statute known as Local Law 97 also remains on the books. That’s the statute that mandates that all residential buildings in excess of 25,000 square feet convert to electric heat by 2030 — the same year that the State’s Climate Act mandates 70% of electricity generation from “renewables,” of which the large majority can only come from non-existent wind and solar. Thus we have the City mandating a huge increase in electricity demand by 2030 at the same time that the State is mandating dismantling our existing reliable electricity generation with no credible plan to replace it. https://www.manhattancontrarian.com/blog/2025-2-23-amicus-brief-filed-in-glen-oaks-village-owners-v-city-of-new-york

This could be an interesting change to the EB5.

I have seen this create confusion within USCIS. If submitting an IRS transcript, there is no need to include any W2's/1099's as that information is included in the transcript, but since he included a copy of his W2 in the RFE response, USCIS appears to be looking for a copy of the return (1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ) that was submitted to the IRS which is not the same as the transcript from the IRS. I know, it doesn't make any sense, but that can come from a bureaucracy. I agree with @Demise, file the I290B with the copy of the 1040 form submitted, or start the I485 all over again (I would do the I290B it it were me). As to the denial, it is more about not responding to an RFE properly at least according to USCIS. Generally speaking, if an RFE is issued, that is the petitioner's/beneficiary's chance to correct a mistake in a petition, if that is not correctly done, the case is denied, and USCIS moves on. Good Luck!

Are you applying for a US immigration benefit.

Applying under the 5yr rule generally requires less marital evidence. Since you are 5 yrs an LPR, I would check the "General Provision" box. Good Luck!

That is definitely true, plus you don't have to deal with the semis coming in and going out.

I remember when ESPN was just starting out, the used to show Australian Rules Football games overnight. That was definitely a rugged sport, sort of a mix between rugby, soccer, and American style football complete with a goal judge dressed in a white coat.

Very common to see the CEAC status change like that. Good Luck!

German (the language) is so great, always a word for everything. Plus it is a great word to say dunkelflaute! Inside Dunkelflaute, Europe's Renewable Energy Challenge So the phenomena of Dunkelflaute, characterised by periods when there is minimal or no wind and solar power generation, poses significant challenges to Europe's energy landscape. https://sustainabilitymag.com/articles/the-gas-demand-rollercoaster-what-is-dunkelflaute

It seems your nephew needs to file an I290B. If the RFE was answered properly and within the time period, the I485 should be re-opened. Good Luck!
