  1. Go for it. Let us know how it works out for you.
  2. Boiler meant that your bf should be the one to travel, which is exactly what USCIS will say in their denial of a waiver.
  3. Like others have said, he can try to fly to Canada or Mexico. Look, you asked for feedback, right? You have VJ’s senior members commenting on your thread, which means years and years and years of experience with US immigration. Don’t like the feedback? Feel free to ignore it and pursue your path as you wish. Please report back to us how you fare, and good luck. Cool. Go for it.
  4. In denying your petition, USCIS will say that you could have met in a third country. Don’t think this is their first rodeo. Also it ours- we see denials for this all the time.
  5. No. You will not be approved without ever having met. Also, the “Mr and Mrs” thing, if that’s what you’re calling each other, could lead them to think you’re already married, and ineligible. I think you need to research the eligibility and requirements of the K-1 visa a bit more.
  6. You will not get a waiver, I wouldn’t even waste time asking.
  7. We did not redact anything.
  8. I’ve no doubt yours is next, as I know your file was meticulously complete!
  9. You can file a petition for him. Will take up to 20 years.
  10. Never lie to DOS/USCIS. OP references ‘daughters,’ not ‘newborn.’
  11. Obviously the answer is “yes.” It doesn’t ask for the applicant to describe the reason for the denial, does it?
  12. Your original post doesn’t sound like you “have everything in place.”
  13. Not sure that you need an attorney, but perhaps an immigration service, like one of the VJ “Partners,” to help you understand and complete the forms correctly.
  14. Giving false/inaccurate info at the very beginning of an immigration process is not smart. Going forward, if you need help with understanding immigration forms, you should hire some help.
  15. Not just easiest- it’s literally OP’s ONLY option at this point. If she returned to the US with the intention of adjusting struts, that would be immigration fraud.
  16. If you don’t know your actual DOB, what will you do when required to produce an actual birth certificate?
  17. Please look carefully at the letter you got in April of 2023. Doesn’t it say extended for 48 months? If not, sounds like a clerical error in that they somehow reissued the previous letter instead of the current one. Which service center (I.e LIN, WAC etc) is your file at?
  18. Good luck! Make sure to include a copy of your NOA1, and a simple cover letter referencing your case number and stating that you inadvertently omitted the enclosed letters of intent to marry.
  19. OP, how did her interview go?
  20. 2-3 years probably. Maybe longer if the beneficiary is male.
  21. Not if he’s still responsible for her per the previously signed I-864.
  22. I am one who sent additional documents (a final foreign divorce decree absolute, which we did not have at the time of filing) directly to the Laguna Niguel address, several months after filing the petition. It did make its way to our file, and was included. No RFE. YMMV.
  23. I think you’re misunderstanding the importance of establishing intent to marry via statements of both parties. One of the downfalls of using a lawyer is that it’s easy to defer to them instead of owning your own process. Going forward, you will want to make sure you know the requirements for each step of the process. It is long and expensive, and no one cares more about your visa than you do. In fact, lawyers get paid more for making mistakes….
  24. Fire that attorney. The letter of intent is mandatory.
