  1. Yes, that was your error, and yes, the I-824 takes about a year. Did you have a question?
  2. But why? That was 100% unnecessary. You need some serious education on US immigration 101. This is already a debacle.
  3. Huh? This makes no sense. Whatever it is, is a mess. I suggest you find a competent immigration lawyer asap. Nope.
  4. There is nothing really you can do. Some people will file a lawsuit (Writ of Mandamus) for cases that are outside of normal processing time.
  5. What problem? The message you posted clearly states there is nothing for you to do.
  6. Suggestions for what? The messages is pretty darn clear. Did you have a question?
  7. Weirdly, you posted in 2019 that you were going through the naturalization process.....
  8. I always assume CBP can see all documents and notes related to US immigration, but they don't publish that info. Most likely you'll be fine, as long as you prepare to demonstrate strong ties to home. I'd say the caregiver to grandpa is not a strong tie, since obviously you're preparing to leave that role when you immigrate.
  9. This is not a strong tie. Especially since you have demonstrated immigrant intent, so presumably you can get the medication in the US. IMO, the POE shouldn't dictate how you prepare to interact with CBP. It's a crapshoot every time, regardless of POE.
  10. Bring evidence of your ties to home. Are you taking a 6 week holiday from work? Bring a letter attesting to that, with the day you're expected to return. They may wonder if you plan to work remotely here while on vacation. If so, don't. That is not allowed. Do not bring "moving house" volumes of belongings.
  11. Wonder if that’s a retrogression record? F2A was current for so long prior to that.
  12. Very sorry, but one of the VAWA requirements is that you’ve lived together in the US. Sounds like you have only visited on VWP etc.
  13. K-1 was the wrong choice if you needed to make concrete wedding plans, especially if the “religious reasons” mean the beneficiary is from one of the countries that may come with extended administrative processing post-interview.
  14. Amazing that she arrived and so quickly changed plans to adjust status with no need to return from ‘vacation’….. 😳
  15. So you’re saying an answer you provided on the electronic form somehow got changed by USCIS?
  16. And what will you do for a salary to sponsor her? She should be focusing on getting a Schengen visa. Apparently it is getting harder by the day for Russians to get them.
  17. Or better yet, have the "friend" post here and get first-hand answers. If the petitioner's parent is a sibling of the beneficiary's parent, they are first cousins.
  18. There are a lot of ill-informed or even scammy lawyers out there. Your best bet, going forward, is to do everything by the law, and don't try to take advantage of the privilege of the B visa. Especially since she is not a Canadian citizen. Petition her for an immigrant visa and wait in the queue like everyone else.
  19. Yes, you received faulty advice. The terms of the B visa do not permit work of any kind.
  20. I see. Yes, the visa itself confers no work authorization.
