    Never lie to a consular officer. Not worth it.
  2. SalishSea
    Not just insightful. Petitioner's name is literally printed on the K-1 visa in the beneficiary's passport.
  3. SalishSea
    If it sounds like fraud to VJ strangers, imagine how it will sound to professionals at USCIS? 100% FRAUD.

    No part of US immigration is fast. As you are from a high-fraud country, you will need plenty of time spent in person before petitioning for any type of visa.

    You cannot include your adult son's income.

    I believe it already expired. So, as OP was told in all of her prior threads, her spouse is now subject to deportation.
  7. SalishSea
    Hopefully you plan to spend significant time in each other's company before filing for any visa.

    They don't answer procedural questions or give legal advice.

    The specific reason for my comment is due to the recent history of K-1s from India that were fraudulently pursued by already married couples who wanted to bypass the longer wait for spouse visas. This was a few years ago now, but it was widespread, and the increased K-1 scrutiny for India still exists.

    They are not resident aliens yet though. Not until they have their green cards. We did a K-1, and as soon as my husband had his SSN, we just went to my credit union and opened a joint account. We also have our own personal accounts there. It was no big deal and did not take days and days. If that's what you've encountered, I'd try a different bank/credit union.

    Processing centers are unrelated to USC state of residence. 99% of K-1s are processed at CSC. Indian and Pakistani K-1s seem to be denied more than people from other countries, due to past fraud. You may want to research this.
  12. SalishSea
    This is pertinent info that would have been helpful to include in your original post. It sounds like they do not believe that you have an eligible, authentic marriage, and they intend to deny/revoke the original petition.
  13. SalishSea
    Right. I was responding to the other inquiry within this thread, which maybe one of the mods wants to move to it's own new post to not thread jack the OP.
  14. SalishSea
    Yep. This is how immigrant visa applicants get dinged with an inadmissibility - lying on a prior DS-160 about their marital status because they think it will improve their chances. Later on, USCIS/DOS wants evidence of dissolution of the fake marriage.
  15. SalishSea
    As long as the step-parent/child relationship (i.e. marriage between the USC and child's parent) took place prior to the child's 18th bday. Otherwise, the beneficiary parent would be the petitioner.
  16. SalishSea
    You can try it, but it sounds quite shady to me.
  17. SalishSea
    No, this is not a thing.
  18. SalishSea
    That wouldn't have been a reason to delay adjusting status though....
  19. SalishSea
    Making such assumptions/errors will lead to delays or even denials. Please do your research.
  20. SalishSea
    No.
  21. SalishSea
    No, but he would be out of status and subject to deportation.
  22. SalishSea
    A year ago, this wouldn't have been a big deal. In October 2025, I'd say you should move heaven and earth to avoid ever being out of status. Do not under any circumstances send an incomplete packet though.

    The OP did not mention moving in with the brother. She wrote: "Would my name showing up on an apartment lease be enough to prove U.S. residence? My brother lives in the U.S. and he can likely get me into his current lease." To me, this sounds manufactured, like a paperwork modification vs an authentic piece of evidence of domicile. Maybe to you it is not a big deal, but per the TOS rules here at VJ, we cannot recommend creating evidence which is not in good faith. The best evidence for all steps of US immigration is genuine evidence. Yes, even for low-fraud, low-risk consulates.
  24. SalishSea
    I said it is *inadequate* as evidence of domicile. Which, it is. Per OP's post, she lived in the US for <5 years. Adding her name to a brother's lease is fine, but more compelling evidence of domicile/intent to would be US tax filing records, banking records, driver's license, etc.
  25. SalishSea
    No, that is inadequate evidence of domicile. Especially since it would obviously be fake - adding your name to a lease where you do not live.
