  1. This is even more amazing. Smartest man I guess. Li alleges that, following Biden’s disastrous debate drubbing, Hunter essentially took over White House operations. Speaking with podcaster Shawn Ryan, she painted a picture of dysfunction at the highest levels of government: “After the [CNN] debate, Hunter basically commandeered the White House. He sat in on all of the White House top-level meetings. We had a former cocaine addict sitting in on the most sensitive meetings of the most consequential and most important government in world history. Does that sit right with you?"
  2. Used to be a big college football fan, but the current state of it (particularly the seemingly unregulated transfer portal) makes it less enticing at least to me (hard to root for my favorite team when who knows if the players will stay more than a year or so). Ice Hockey was a main staple when the Wings were good. I hardly ever watch NBA or MLB games, and I did jump on the Lions bandwagon this past season.
  3. Could be. How does Chile treat those types of unions?
  4. The biggest hurdle right now is the spouse has to formally file the I407. That can take up to 60 days to process, and I am unsure if the consulate will accept a new I130 until that is finalized.
  5. I agree with @Edward and Jaycel, the AP/Refused phase may take some time due to the particulars of this case. I would give it more time, and yes I would wait at least of year after submitting the DS5535 before submitting a WoM. Good Luck, and hopefully something will break for you and your wife soon in your favor.
  6. It will be an issue as to authorized employment when the or if the I485 is denied by USCIS. As I said earlier, the I765 is attached to the I485 package, and it that is denied, the EAD issued based on that package will also become invalid. I would talk to a lawyer, you can always go onto Jim Hacking's show on Youtube. But you have a bigger problem as if the first I485 is denied due to the petitioner (USC) not able to meet the requirements of the I864, unless anything changes, a second package or a motion to re-open (unless you find a joint sponsor) will be a tough hill to climb. Good Luck!
  7. OK, so the I485 is not yet formally denied, so the EAD is still valid until that point. Did you have an interview?
  8. You mentioned it was denied due to an issue on your part, can you elaborate a little? Your best bet would be to file a new I485 ASAP correcting your mistake(s), and yes you would need to file a new I765 as your first I765 was attached to your first I485. You might talk to a lawyer to see if an I290B motion to re-open is viable, but that may be a stretch. Good Luck!
  9. Honestly, I would get on a plane and enter the US with the valid GC, preferably through a Canada/US land border. If you do not want to do that, then she will need to formally give up her GC via the I407 before you can file a new I130 for her at the consulate. Good Luck!
  10. All consulates are empowered to accept an I130 based on exceptional circumstances, job relocation and an immediate need of the USC to repatriate being one of the most common of those circumstances. That being said, your case is a bit different as your wife had, or has a GC. Has the GC been returned via the I407 process? If not, how long has she been outside the U.S.?
  11. A lot of people, elite people, are nervous. Time to release the Epstein flight logs and the Didi partygoers.
  12. Thanks for the update, and I am happy everything worked out! Safe Travels!
  13. $600M every two months? I guess we know why some people are so against this unregulated spigot being turned off.
  14. Maybe 4-8 weeks between submission and interview for an office with an 80% processing time of 5 months. This is not set in stone, so you need to keep an eye on the online account in case your application winds up getting called for an interview quickly as any interview notice should show up there. Also, you never clarified, has your I751 been decided yet? If not, expect an IO will look at both applications as the N400 cannot be decided until the I751 is finalized. Good Luck!
  15. We did the same thing sort of. We don’t have a joint account together, but rather have two accounts where we are listed as co-owners of each other’s accounts, so we only included the pages showing that joint ownership from our C.U.
  16. If filing online, I think your only options are a credit card, or e-check via your bank routing information. Good Luck!
  17. You may want to discuss this with a tax accountant that specializes in US expats. Good Luck!
  18. Based on the N400 instructions (see below), I would organize it in a similar way. He can add more evidence if he wants in the other evidence section (I assume he is filing online). Good Luck! Required Evidence - Eligibility Based on Marriage to a U.S. Citizen Provide a copy of the following if you are applying for naturalization based on your marriage to a U.S. citizen: 1. Evidence that your spouse has been a U.S. citizen for at least 3 years at the time you file your Form N-400. For example: A. Your spouse’s U.S. birth certificate (if your spouse has held U.S. citizenship since birth); B. Your spouse’s Certificate of Naturalization; C. Your spouse’s Certificate of Citizenship; D. Your spouse’s Form FS-240, Consular Report of Birth Abroad; or E. The biographical page of your spouse’s U.S. passport; 2. Current marriage certificate and any divorce decree, annulment decree, or death certificate showing that your and your spouse’s prior marriages were terminated (if applicable); and 3. Evidence that you and your spouse have lived in marital union for at least 3 years before the time you file your Form N-400. Some examples include: A. Joint bank or credit card statements; B. Leases or mortgages; C. Birth certificates or adoption decrees (as applicable) for any children born or adopted during the marriage by either spouse; D. Insurance policies; and E. IRS tax transcripts for you and your spouse for the past 3 years. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/n-400instr.pdf
  19. No, she should be fine just knowing the generalities. All the details relative to date of marriage, date of divorce, etc. are in the package already. Good Luck!
  20. Each entry can be an adventure depending on the CBP officer she encounters. All she can do is answer the officer's questions truthfully, she is not required to offer anything additional. If asked to provide more evidence she will return, she should share what she has, and more importantly, don't show up at the PoE with all her worldly possessions indicating she does not plan to return to Chile. Many spouses visit on B2/ESTA while the I130 is pending, the general rule-of-thumb is shorter visits (i.e. don't max out the 90 days or six months, etc.), and show a pattern of adhering to the entry and exit requirements. Good Luck!
  21. I have only seen a few stories of what is going on here. Very sad really. South Africa has abandoned civilisation Moeletsi was the victim of a deliberate state policy. In September last year, the South African government, led by the African National Congress (ANC), launched Operation Vala Umgodi, which in Zulu translates as ‘close the hole’. The aim, in the words of a government minister, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni, was to ‘smoke out’ illegal gold miners. The government would do this by cutting off the miners’ supplies and trapping them underground, in an attempt to force them to the surface. In Buffelsfontein, where the shafts are over two kilometres deep, this was a tragedy foretold. As public concern for the trapped miners mounted, the ANC remained callously indifferent. It argued that these miners, most of whom were immigrants, were acting unlawfully and remained underground of their own volition. ‘We are not sending help to criminals’, Ntshavheni told reporters. This was, apparently, a justifiable action against the rising tide of criminality in South Africa. Illegal mining has thrived in South Africa through small-time pilfering and organised criminal networks, costing the economy billions of rands in lost income and royalties. You may recall that South African president Cyril Ramaphosa is the man who, at a BRICS meeting in November 2023, accused Israel of committing war crimes and genocide in Gaza. He qualified these accusations by stating that the ‘deliberate denial of medicine, fuel, food and water to the residents of Gaza is tantamount to genocide’. So, did Ramaphosa commit genocide in the Buffelsfontein Gold Mine? https://www.spiked-online.com/2025/01/31/south-africa-has-abandoned-civilisation/
  22. I agree, your current spouse should not need to memorize exact dates of your previous marriage, divorce, etc. Just general knowledge of your past relationship and immigration histories will go a long way to showing you are in a good marriage now. Good Luck!
  23. This may be helpful. You can search for a CBP deferred inspection location and get a stamp. As to the documents, does the visa in the passport have the note “IV Docs in CCD”? Is so, all the relevant documents are transferred electronically. Good Luck!
