No, not a requirement for the spouse of someone being interviewed for naturalization to be present at said interview. Good Luck!

This is why I always advocate keeping a copy of the CBP Carrier Guide handy. Airline staff may not have seen an ADIT/I551 stamp before, and may need to be educated. TO the OP, here is the link to the latest Carrier Guide Pg. 10 clearly shows an ADIT stamp as acceptable to allow you to board a flight to the US. Also, don't believe the hype. Good Luck! https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2023-Nov/Carrier Information Guide ENGLISH.pdf

She can apply for the SSN either before or after the wedding as long as she has more than 14-21 days of validity left on the I94 from her K1 entry. The issue is if she decides to change her name after your wedding, she will most likely not be able to update the SSC with the new name until after she gets either an EAD or her GC. As to working before getting her GC, as @Boiler stated, as long as she files an I765 with the AOS package. Here is the guide you want to become very familiar with. Good Luck!

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.
