  1. If you’re wondering about a medical/health inadmissibility, then no, it is not a reason for that. I wasn’t sure about the meaning of your last sentence, but if you are saying that your USC fiancé will be able to provide you with health insurance via an employer, that’s excellent! Everyone coming to the U.S. needs health insurance, regardless of past medical/surgical history. ,
  2. You can blame Pakistan for its lack of central criminal records and generally poor record-keeping. It’s so bad, it’s one of the few countries the U.S. doesn’t require a police certificate from for immigrant visas- such certificates would be useless.
  3. This is incorrect. You cannot combine incomes with a joint sponsor. And your “assumption” is also incorrect. I know you’re just trying to be helpful, but you are actually dispensing wrong information here. OP, I gave you the correct answer in your other thread on the same topic, which I’ve asked the mods to merge.
  4. The company wanting to hire you should have their own immigration employment lawyer, who will know what the requirements are.
  5. Make sure you have a solid plan inn place for their health care. They won’t be eligible for Medicare.
  6. Are you petitioning a fiancé? You are the sponsor. You may be able to use an eligible joint sponsor. The I134/I865 with all supporting documentation (Tax transcripts, payslips, employer letters etc) will be required from both you and the joint sponsor. You may want to look at getting a better job, or a second job even. Bringing over someone who won't be eligible to work for upwards of 8 months is impractical on poverty line wages. You will also need to look into providing health insurance for that person.
  7. You will be responsible for spousal support/child support (if any) as per your state’s family law.
  8. To clarify what I meant: Just because someone from a non-VWP country obtains a new EU citizenship, doesn’t mean ESTA is a sure thing. The reasons for AP for the prior B application are not “erased.” And having a prior visa denial greatly diminishes the chance of ever being eligible for ESTA.
  9. So you’ll get extra scrutiny because he adjusted on a nonimmigrant visa.
  10. It’s fraud for someone to enter the U.S. on a B visa with the intention to adjust status. Marriage itself confers no immigration benefit. You need to petition her for an immigrant visa.
  11. The extra vetting is because you are Pakistani. Withdrawing and reapplying does not eliminate the reasons for the background checks. If the B-2 is denied, you won’t be eligible for ESTA even if you obtain a new citizenship. How did your brother get his U.S. citizenship, and the green card before that?
  12. How will you support an immigrant? Are you aware that it could be 8 months before he/she is allowed to work? What if your partner needs medical care?
  13. He needs to tell the truth. The details of his prior applications/denials are available to the consular officers. Unfortunately for you, when family members adjust status from nonimmigrant visas, it absolutely impacts others trying to get B visas.
  14. Also: there is no way to bring her as early as Fall 2024. Immigration is time consuming and expensive.
  15. You aren’t getting that that’s fraud. She can’t come on a tourist visa and adjust status. She has to wait her turn like everyone else, and you have to properly petition her for an immigrant visa like everyone else. Have you ever met this person?
  16. “We may move”? Is this your girlfriend? Student visas are nonimmigrant visas. Nursing programs in the U.S. are very competitive, and fluency in English is required. She m should start learning English long before she applies to one.
  17. Are you not in the UK? The UK has a much more robust and vast social support network/welfare system than the US. Please reach out to your local services/council and see what is available. The "woe is me" attitude only goes so far, and eventually you need to take ownership over your own life and choices. You are a legal adult, and your family is subject to local laws, regardless of their religion or culture, or the laws in their home country.
  18. No, you cannot do that. That is immigration fraud. It sounds to me like your issues are better suited to seeking help from local law enforcement/social services. Developing adult coping skills now will also be something to focus on. Moving to another country is not easy, and will not be an overall solution to your problems.
  19. As explained earlier in this thread, if you want to bring your spouse, you would need to legally divorce and then legally marry. As your current marriage is not legal in the United States, your partner is not eligible for a visa.
  20. US immigrant visas are issued per US law. As long as same-sex marriage remains legal in the United States, spouse/fiance visas for same-sex partners will continue to be issued at US embassies in all countries, regardless of local politics or religion.
  21. They are very unlikely to even glance at any supporting documents you bring. They don’t care about your mode of salary deposit, just that you can pay for your trip and plan to return home after.
  22. What are the N-400 wait times like for your LFO?
