Big ships like this come through small eastern shore towns and it's required to tug them through the canal and out past many of our bridges, we walk trails along the canals all the time and see big Maersks being tugged, so I don't know why it wouldn't be here. From the way I've heard it, operators can request a tug if they are having problems, and they did not do so. The ship had problems in the port before they left. A friend saw thick smoke coming from the ship yesterday at the port.

Its been a heck of a weird day. Being woken up early in the morning to my husband mumbling "parents won't stop txting me... bridge has collapsed. they're freaking out!" and me half asleep being very confused. "which one? our county bridge?" "no no.. baltimore" "the bay bridge?!" "no baltimore or something" We appreciated the concern, but his family have no conception that we're really quite far from Baltimore, but I think his parents associate the key bridge with ANY bridge they've been on in this state at any given time. It was a beautiful bridge. So many memories, used to look on it from my house growing up. His first trip to the US, we took photos of it from Ft McHenry. https://www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/transportation/key-bridge-collapse-YDNMRSLMDREE7ADUZJQFQJ3WDA/ I really don't understand what the ship was doing there and why it wasn't being tugged. Lordy.. it's going to be so expensive to rebuild. Traffic will be a nightmare.

Kate says she has cancer. The statement of 'facts', timeline, continuing secrecy, and other particulars make little sense, but I hope she gets the help she needs, unlike others on the NHS who won't be told of their diagnosis or receive treatment until it's too late. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-68641441 That makes it especially trashy of the Palace to photoshop her photo.

My assessment is similar to that of the Newsweek article. Some finer points: 1) if you want to use a VPN to get around content the government sees fit to ban - 20 years in jail or $1 million fine? I scratch my head at this because we got murderers and rapists around not getting those kind of penalties. 2) can apply to any content or website that the president sees fit at any time depending on what he feels like 3) There's lots of other provisions that are clear power grabs and it reminds me greatly of the early days of the patriot act. That being said: 4) TikTok does have a problem in that part of it is owned by the Chinese government. My argument here is that many things are owned by the Chinese government. We do not have evidence that the data being collected is being used in an appropriate way at least not in any way the government is prepared to declassify. However, pretty much every social media site is collecting data, using it, selling it, and may or may not be holding it securely. We have reached the point where there are class action lawsuits from artists because sites are selling images, data, and their words to big AI without consent. The government knows this. 5)Facebook and Twitter have active lobbyists who would love to see a major competitor driven into the ground.

The conspiracy is that either she is dead, divorcing, or critically unwell and that the Palace is hiding it. Kate has not been seen since December and the circumstances surrounding that are unusual. That being said, there are rumors and blind items out there that are very wild, but a few have been whispered for years. The man married to the daughter of the QEII's cousin, was found shot dead. The UK press twisted themselves into pretzels in an attempt to make it seem as if it was natural causes. It was not. This man was a former lover of Kate's sister and supposedly close to the family. This photo in particular, was not given to the press as normal. Media organizations require proof regarding certain alteration specifics. This is not a photograph that has just been 'retouched'. I can tell you the head has been taken from a magazine cover, the lower half has been altered, the wedding ring was missing (hands added came from somewhere else), the children have been placed in a variety of odd ways. The work done to the photo is obvious and sloppy. Now, they have done some sloppy edits before but something about how this photo was presented did not go through typical channels. The image of Kate in this photograph also does not match to one that was taken by paps a few days prior - one the Palace thought so unflattering, they ordered UK media to hide it. Today the UK media was allowed to pap a photo of someone in a vehicle purported to be her, but only the back of her head. No one knows what is wrong with Kate, some people have alluded, and it's not good. It is no way for the lady to be treated, and most people just want her to be safe and ok.

Laughed rather loud at the transcript of the online convos he would have with this person. Read like he was in a relationship with a bot. Indictment is here but does not describe whom this ''woman'' actually might be. https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/air-force-employee-indicted-unlawful-disclosure-classified-national-defense-information#:~:text=“As alleged%2C Mr. Slater,Attorney General Matthew G.

We filed back in July, interview notice was around the end of September for the October interview date. Very fast, and we honestly think it was a fluke.

A person can self sponsor via London if they certainly are employed and make enough or have enough assets. However if the boyfriend is sponsoring you then they are the person to meet that percentage threshold provided they can. If they can't a co-sponsor can also be used.

It's good that you've got her upcoming coverage. Typically what you'd need to investigate is a sort of temporary insurance for new immigrants. Since she has moved to the US instead of visiting, she will not qualify for travelers health insurance. Fair warning though, temporary insurance which is marketing to new immigrants is non-ACA compliant, and their coverage is dubious at best if at all. Some people choose to go without until their new coverage kicks in, but of course there's risks to that. The question is though is if having this type of insurance is really worth it to begin with if the coverage is so poor.

Your boyfriend will need a completed I-134, his most recent tax transcript from the IRS which will show his earnings and that he's paid taxes. This is mentioned in the instructions for the I-134. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-134instr.pdf London will also want to see an employer letter, stating position, how long worked, and salary. These items you need to take with you to your interview.

I don't see anything really suspicious that stands out about those visits. There was a period of time when my husband would visit twice a year usually on his university breaks. Besides his first visit he was never questioned. It might be good to take some sort of employer letter as proof. I'd say we certainly would leave larger gaps in-between visits (if he came in spring he wouldn't return until winter). Perhaps the officer thought a visit in Nov and then again in Feb was too soon.

I went to NJ once. After two hours I was done and safely retreated. The husband says we should go back and I have yet for him to give me a good reason why we should. Delaware is 11th on that list too, and while there are nice things to see there and in general friendly people these days those people are also generally miserable. I probably shouldn't knock so hard on MD though. There's tons of cool to find here but I don't think we are a genuinely happy people.

Maryland is 3rd?! LOL! 🤣

I can only attest to what worked for us. If you are missing tax return transcripts that should be there, you're going to have to go into the office to get them or at the very least they can offer some suggestion by directly speaking to an agent. If you have the full tax forms and w2s that may be fine - but I cannot attest to what the USCIS officer will ask of you during interview. I felt we were very proactive on the subject of letting our officer know the IRS rules and providing them what we had ahead of time. The officer wasn't concerned, but I can't say what yours will request. It is not uncommon for years to be missing on the IRS since they implemented this new rule. If you have years missing under the three year period (what the IRS is supposed to collect and save online) there are reasons why they may be missing as the IRS states: If you are concerned perhaps make a visit? https://www.irs.gov/help/contact-your-local-irs-office

What we did for naturalization when the following things did not work: 1) Making an account and looking for them. They won't have all the older transcripts you're looking for. Ironically I needed 2018, and I had 2017 because I had printed it out back then. Could have kicked myself for missing out on that transcript. They will not have them on the website past three years. If you are missing some before that date then you'll certainly need to contact the IRS about it, likely by going into the office. 2) sending in a form to the IRS to request they go looking for it. didn't work, they sent it back denied. 3) calling them, also got the runaround. In lieu of going to an office directly and not wanting to keep doing this song and dance. I simply got the entire copy of 2018 tax return with w2 and uploaded it onto our N400 along with the tax transcripts for the other years we did have. We also uploaded a letter explaining why we chose a tax return instead of a transcript and explained the IRS rules. There was absolutely no problem. The officer did not ask or care about it.

This individual was also previously arrested in September in NY and released. There are many similarities in this case to the homicide of Rachel Morin in August of last year in Maryland. Some have even pointed out that he looks very similar to a recently released sketch of a suspect in the murder. That suspect in the MD case was traced via DNA to the rape of a minor that took place in California earlier in the year. Police have always stated that they feared would kill again and may be linked to other crimes. I am praying that this may be the suspect and can be brought to justice. For more background on the MD case see here:

Yes! This is one of my favorite stories from last year, and like an old friend it's back! I hope they do another spectacle thing where we pew pew it and watch it pop.

Just imagine a giant dumpster. Then imagine them tossing all the files of cases into that dumpster. No system, no sorting, no organization, all mixed around. A couple officers will pick whatever is on the top for the week and the rest of the time is playing candy crush, zoom meetings, and napping. In other words they'll get to your case eventually, but it won't make much sense how long it will take getting to it.

How a K1 process usually works: get K1 and arrive to US. Marry as soon as possible. You can go to the SSA before marriage and get an SSN this is very helpful. The SSN will have restrictions on it. Start planning to do other things such as adding new spouse to health insurance or bank. When you file for AOS you will also file for an EAD (work authorization) and advanced parole (travel). The question always becomes though how long will it take the EAD to arrive before the green card and will prospective employers understand one to begin with? That is the problem we ran into ultimately and this problem will increase with longer wait times to receive it. With the long wait time growing it can certainly increase the burdens of needing to rely on savings if the spouse cannot work and that problem is compounded since you cannot get proper ID/DL without the card. With the SSN and an EAD will make it much easier for the new spouse to obtain things like a state ID or DL. When you receive the green card you will need to head back to the DMV to update license/ID and the SSA to remove restrictions off the card.

Well I guess changing her identity was one of the reasons she got hired. Previously she'd been in trouble for welfare fraud because she said no one would hire her under her old identity. But I would agree, certainly a person with severe mental problems, a lack of education, and convicted of a crime shouldn't be teaching kids.

So is she back to grifting being white again?

These are the same types of scams that youtubers like Kitboga highlight and try to take the scammer for a long and hilarious torture session. Usually they will go after an elderly person in a variety of ways. There is generally a network of individuals in call centers abroad and then drop off locations or collectors in the US. I'd be very sympathetic normally, but after reading that article it truly was another one of those insufferable things and they did get dragged all over the internet for writing it. One theory out there is that the person actually lost the money another way but wrote the article and the elaborate scam as a cover story. One thing I've always told my parents is the various ways people can scam you. Mom's recent dealings with the medicare scam that she took no part in certainly has infuriated her, that the government isn't doing more to protect the vulnerable. My husband is currently working on stopping new types of scams that are attempting to defraud the government and college institutions out of student loans and grants. He says it's always unbelievable when he sees employees put clearly suspicious accounts through - giving them access to thousands of dollars.

Generally a SSN would be needed if you aren't going with an authorized user. The easiest way to start from scratch and no credit history would be a secured credit card.

The SLC thing was an annoyance for us to handle stateside (needing to send off proof of non-employment, late letters, phone calls, and threats), but once done we only needed to start paying once my husband had started his first job in the US. You're then reassessed every year. Honestly? It's a giant pain. If you have the funds to pay it off might be worth it to never deal with it again. We're still paying and will continue to do so for years. We kept a UK account for that purpose. Also make sure to complete a P85 and you might get money back from the HMRC. We also got rid of the ISA before leaving the UK.
