Hard to say, all you can really do is apply and find out. Good Luck!

I-130 Filing Concerns
Dashinka replied to Equardo's topic in Bringing Family Members of Permanent Residents to America
Thanks, I missed the part of this being an F2A case. -
Considering folks, especially in the LA area, are stealing fire hydrants, and traffic signal wiring, I can't imagine these hefty cables at DC fast charging sites would last long. Thefts of charging cables pose yet another obstacle to appeal of electric vehicles https://www.wtae.com/article/electric-vehicle-charging-cables-theft/61087733

Not really. The person who wrote the initial article only spent a little time with the tribe, and essentially was touting the benefits and there certainly are benefits with the internet. Overall, it sounded like a petulant response to all the news sources jumping on the negatives of the internet. Regardless, as time moves on, it seems clear what will happen. Btw, the article was free to me at least when I found it, now it is paywalled as I would never spend hard earned money on NYTimes.

Undecided future voter - Please help?
Dashinka replied to Visitor User's topic in Current Events and Hot Social Topics
As mentioned, decide for yourself based on your political desires, and when some simply say one Party is better than the other, take that with a grain of salt. Also remember that local elections are extremely important (it is not just all about who is running for President, Governor or Senator). Congrats on your naturalization! -
Interesting. Some folks in the entertainment industry actually aren't so petulant. Scores of actresses turn down roles in play critical of JK Rowling’s gender views The stage production, which is set to debut at the Edinburgh Fringe, has already caused outrage over a working title which labelled the gender-critical Harry Potter author a c----. The production is yet to cast any of the female roles, including that of Rowling herself. The part of Harry Potter film star Emma Watson has also been repeatedly turned down, and around 90 actresses have refused to take part in the project amid concerns over its critique of Rowling. https://www.msn.com/en-us/movies/other/scores-of-actresses-turn-down-roles-in-play-critical-of-jk-rowling-s-gender-views/ar-BB1oa9Am

I-130 Filing Concerns
Dashinka replied to Equardo's topic in Bringing Family Members of Permanent Residents to America
It really depends on your plans. You mention she is currently in the U.S. planning on returning in 3 months. If that is the case, she can choose to AOS now assuming you have all the evidence to file, but the IV vs AOS question should reflect what your long term plans are. She cannot decide in a few months or so after returning she would like to come back to the U.S. and AOS as that would be fraud, so if your plan is to pursue the spousal visa, I would stick with that and she can use her B2, but she should be careful of abusing it (I.e short stays with more time outside the U.S. than inside). Good Luck! -
i-130 Did I mess up my standalone i-130?
Dashinka replied to brahstir's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
You should be fine. Good Luck! -
The online case status can alternate between Administrative Processing and Refused, but as long as it does not say Denied/Rejected you are still fine. As far as I have been able to deduce, Administrative Processing means someone is actively doing something with your case, but the visa has still not been officially Issued, and Refused means the case is still sitting in limbo awaiting all the rest of the work. Hopefully you will see the message "Issued" soon as it sounds like your interview went well. Good Luck!

To my knowledge, the Utah Zoom marriage is accepted at all consulates as long as you meet the requirement of meeting in person (consummating the marriage) either during or after the ceremony. Why not go to India, and do the Utah Zoom marriage while you are together? You can then submit the I130 as soon as you get the marriage certificate which I understand is done electronically for this type of ceremony. Good Luck!

Except every drug has side effects, and many Drs. Tend to gloss over those. With all the drug advertising, and the multi-billion dollar drug industry, who knows what to believe. I took the drug information the Dr. gave me and did my own research, and took in the totality of everything, and I made my choice good bad or otherwise. In the end, we are all going to end the same way.

The Sickness of Our Universities—and the Cure

Yes, the Ivy League has really lost its lustre as of late. The New York Post Shares Interesting Harvard Study and X Is Here for It https://twitchy.com/rickrobinson/2024/06/13/the-new-york-post-shares-an-interesting-harvard-study-and-x-is-here-for-it-n2397205 -
A bit of a petulant court ruling, but decided to put it here. Even the Swiss seem to be getting frustrated by these puppet courts and their rulings. Switzerland Considers Defying Climate Court Order Switzerland, however, has been defiant toward the ruling so far. A parliamentary committee has rejected the ruling, while the upper house slammed the court’s “judicial activism”. The upper house, leaning right, has argued that Switzerland does not need to take further action because it is already doing enough to combat climate change. Apart from setting precedents, the Swiss case highlights the backlash against climate rulings globally. If Switzerland refuses to implement the court ruling to do more to fight climate change, it could “set a concerning precedent, undermining the role of legal oversight in democratic governance,” Isabela Keuschnigg, legal researcher with the London School of Economics, told Reuters. https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Switzerland-Considers-Defying-Climate-Court-Order.html

Great piece by Mr. Prager. He is right though, the mistrust in the US is due to how elections are conducted, and how that has devolved into a mass mail-in voting (which should only be available to those that actually need it, and not just all the lazy folks, or ballot harvesters), and secretive voting machine software. Of course the political parties stoke this mistrust, and even though Democrats deny election results with every bit as much fervor as Donald Trump when they lose, for some reason they get the cover of the MSM and avoid the label of conspiracy theorists even though this is exactly what they are. Anyway, I thought this was key. Now the issue is that in the US, it is essentially 50 separate elections which is fine, I am not advocating a federal takeover of elections, but there should be some conformity as to how elections are handled, and the Carter-Baker Commission is a place to start. America is almost alone among democratic countries in not requiring paper ballots. As of 2023, only Brazil counts all its ballots in national elections through electronic voting. According to Pew Research Center, votes are cast by manually marking paper ballots in 209 of the 227 countries. In France, as reported by the Associated Press, voters "use the same system that's been used for generations: paper ballots that are cast in person and counted by hand." In 2009, Germany's Federal Constitutional Court ruled that voting machines could no longer be used. In 2017, the Dutch government announced that all ballots in the 2017 general election would be counted by hand.

HOW LOW CAN BLUE CITIES SINK? [merged threads]
Dashinka replied to TBoneTX's topic in Current Events and Hot Social Topics
The question is will there be limits to how much people with an eligibility card can take? How will the store enforce any limits? Will it simply just be a case of security watching folks walk out the door with as much of the inventory they can carry in a cart or two?
