I think it's a matter of perception. Many times a K-1 has been denied because USCIS thought that a couple were "too married" for a K-1. An example is a Vietnamese engagement party. Not married but "married" enough to be denied. 

What your husband wants doesn't matter. You have the decision to keep his last name or not. You are within your rights to keep the name and you shouldn't notify USCIS. Just list "divorced" when you apply for naturalization in 5 years.

That darn Suss & Camm will leave us as soon as her green card arrives.  I won't have anyone to abuse in this thread anymore.

sorry to the OP that your going through this, I was told yesterday that we are over.

filed K1 4-11

she arrived here 10/19

married 11/27

told we are over 3/2

 

oh and the because...

my kids dont eat all the meals she fixes

my kids make messes

I forget my lunch 3 times

I fixed dinner when I got home instead of going to our room to find her

and lastly because I dont feel her sister who lives in the US likes me

I'm sorry to hear this. Maybe something can be worked out. Let's hope so. She does not have a green card so this is not her best interest. However, I am a little suspicious with her sister being in the United States. It makes me think there was a "plan." 4 months, no abuse and she wants a divorce? Suspicious. Again, sorry that you are going through this.

OMG! So my phone just had a fit... I look at it to see what's going on and it says "NEW CARD IS BEING PRODUCED" for the green card application!!!! yayy!!!    

Okay there is officially no emoticon that accurately describes the look on my face right now! hahahahaha

You're off my Christmas List.  Kidding! Congrats! 

2-3 weeks is the standard time. Bug them if it goes past 21 days.

Tracking says it's at the post office in Dallas. Signature Confirmation Required. Dallas USCIS is a lockbox facility so I don't know what that means. 

It is almost one year from the time we sent our I-129F Package to USCIS - 3/19/2016 until we received the EAD/AP Combo Card 3/1/2017. Feels like so much longer than that. 

Your parents cannot do a thing about your wife's immigration status. Sorry to hear your father is causing so much trouble for your marriage. 

Nope.. you're going to have to wait out a few more days to see if you get an NOA1 from USCIS. Did you sign up for MyUSCIS to track your case? Did you send an g-1145 with the packet so they can notify you electronically?

There are some great guides on here for you to review:

Canada is no more or less in difficulty to coming to the United States.

Define problems with police. If there were arrests and charges related to problems with police then its not a simple DUI/DWI.

So you are saying that it impossible for immigrant to travel out of US for honeymoon after wedding until 3 - 4 months later even with ap?

Pretty much. Come in on a K-1, get married within 90 days. Submit I-485 (AOS), I-131 (Advanced Parole Travel Document) , I-765 (EAD Work Permit) after married. Wait 3-4 months for Advanced Parole Document. 

He's going to need the police records from his home country and the sooner the better. If the arrest is on there then you're also going to need the supporting documentation for the arrest record and court documents with final disposition. Politically motivated or not with statements from various organizations saying it was false can be part of the documentation and may or may not help your case but the police record is what it is and you can't change that fact. The good news a waiver wasn't required for the F1 and Tourist Visas. 

Did you get a W-2 or a 1099 from your employer? That will answer some of the questions. You're going to need those anyway for financial support documents.

Received the I-765 and I-131 Approval letters yesterday. MyUSCIS site shows the EAD card mailed update.  I-131 AP has no status change on MyUSCIS. This is seems to be the current norm with a combo card situation. EAD card will arrive tomorrow via Priority Mail. 

It's certainly going to get some extra scrutiny. Most of the time doesn't qualify as co-habitation. She's just "visiting." Also, if she is there most of the time including nights and weekends then you are probably in violation of your lease and the landlord can kick you out or demand that your fiance pay back rent. 

You can make payments from anywhere in the world pretty much. The easiest way is to keep a U.S. Bank account and make the payment from there. If that is not an option then check with a foreign bank and see if you can get a check in U.S. Dollars and mail it. I am also sure there are payments services in Mexico that will also do it for a fee. Besides that, I am curious. If you were thinking about moving back to Mexico, why did you bother becoming naturalized? 

I can understand what you are saying. It is very difficult. My fiance needed extra time to finish up work and a number of other things. Moving across town or state is very different from moving country to country. Also, even though you want to start a life together quickly, you don't want to come across as emotional and needy. One observation I have is that you said you had some amazing vacations together. That can actually work against you. Those amazing vacations are far different than living a day to day life together. This is not going to be easy for either of you. It could very well be he's experiencing cold feet. He also may have realized that he doesn't get to live his life the way he wants to anymore with no one to interfere or judge . He has his own pace and he doesn't want people telling  him what to do or pressuring him.  He will need to take you into consideration every single day.  That can be a real problem for some people. Good Luck, I hope it works out.

Yea, I was able to verify my identity 'because of my previous brief address at my husband's parents house...or at least those were questions it asked me

 

For me it only shows me packages specifically in my name though... not for you?

It shows all packages coming to the address. So, when my daughter or wife buys things on Amazon, I see them coming. lol

Chances are you will have to verify your address in person at a local post office. MyUsps on-line web site and app allows you to do many things. One of the features is that if USPS, not USCIS, scans a package with your address on it. It automatically adds this package to your account onto MyUSPS. However, this can also be a problem since packages also show up on there that others in your house maybe don't weant you to know about. Christmas packages are an example.

He doesn't have one... you just check if it shows up there... 

If there is a scan with your delivery name and address and you're registered and got the dashboard activated..it'll just show up once it's scanned at the first mail center.

Wow, I seem to have hired an assistant today.  Good Job!

Card Mailed notice today. If they sent priority it should arrive by Monday morning.  I'll be checking MyUSPS on the hour tonight to see if a shipping record shows up.

Sometimes it feels like you just won the lottery.
