This is how the DQ process works: The interview is scheduled by NVC. I hope you get the interview letter soon. 1. Case is DQ'd by NVC. 2. Case then enters NVC queue for your consulate and waits at NVC. 3. Consulate informs NVC of available interview date for upcoming month. 4. NVC schedules interviews for cases at the front of the line. 5. NVC schedules your interview when your case reaches the front of the queue for that consulate. 6. NVC notifies person of interview date via email. 7. NVC then sends case to consulate. After the interview is scheduled, it can take several days to several weeks for the consulate to receive the case.

***Same case I-129f questions merged to consolidate history***

Contact NVC and tell them to hold off scheduling your interview until son's case has been DQ'ed. Ask them to schedule the cases together.

But by doing so (filing based on a divorce waiver), it rightfully informs USCIS of the pending divorce, and prevents a premature decision based on a joint bona fide marriage when the I-751 approval should be based on a divorce waiver. ....just my thoughts. I think the RFE would give you 90 days to produce the divorce decree.

We have a great CPA who well-versed in tax matters involving foreign income and accounts. She has done our taxes since 2017. She does the tax returns, foreign asset reporting, and FBAR. I can PM you her name if you wish.

One more thing: Here is the Visa Journey flowsheet I think you are at step 18 or so:

^^This ^^^. Best practice would have been to get the Social Security number before marriage. The I-765 package and I-131 package can be sent along with the I-485 package. You can read this guide:

I always suggest seeking the help of a competent tax pro/CPA for these questions the first tax year as a resident. I think you are correct on #1. Our tax accountant completes an 1116 for us every year. For #2, an FBAR might be required depending on what kind of accounts and the balances. Again, that's another reason to seek experienced, professional help. Good luck.

You can.

That is not accurate. The endorsed immigrant visa acts as a full-fledged Green Card for a year or until the plastic card arrives. You can enter the US, the immediately exit if needed.

Working normally for me again. Thanks, Captain!!!!

The consulate is the sole approval authority for visas. They are the only people who can help.

The processing times are pretty close. Every couple has their own priorities, and each couple must decide which visa is better for their situation. K-1 More expensive than CR-1 Requires Adjustment of Status after marriage (expensive and requires a lot of paperwork) Spouse can not leave the US until she/he receives approved Advance Parole (approx 3-8 months) Spouse can not work until she/he receives EAD (approx 3-8 months) Some people have had problems with driver licenses, Social Security cards, leases, bank account during this period Spouse will not receive Green Card for many months after Adjustment of Status is filed. A K-1 might be a better choice when 18-21 year old children are immigrating also In some situations, marriage can affect certain Home country benefits, making a K-1 a better choice A denied K-1 is sent back to USCIS to expire K-1 entrant cannot file for citizenship until after having Green Card for 3 years. Once an I-129F has been approved, delaying the case is difficult to impossible if the need arises. CR-1/IR-1 Less expensive than K-1 No Adjustment of Status(I-485, I-131, I-765) required. Spouse can immediately travel outside the US Spouse is authorized to work immediately upon arrival. Spouse receives Social Security Card and Green Card within 2 or 3 weeks after entering the US Opening a bank account, getting a driver's license, etc. are very easily accomplished with GC, SS card, and passport. Spouse has legal permanent Resident status IMMEDIATELY upon entry to US. The clock for citizenship filing starts immediately upon entry to the US. A CR-1/IR-1 case can be delayed indefinitely at NVC if the need arises.

I don't you are liable for any state taxes. However, federal taxes are a different story. All Green Card holders are required to report world-wide income to the US IRS.

Is husband's home state Virginia?

Home printer if fine. Personally, I prefer color. All I-129fs go to Dallas lockbox. Have you considered marrying online, meeting, and filing for a spousal visa?
