  1. You will not be authorized to work remotely until you have an EAD, so being able to “work from anywhere” isn’t actually an advantage.
  2. So they're going to leave the US to do that?
  3. Since at least 2018 (the year we did our K-1), possibly before.
  4. 99% of I-129F petitions are processed at the California Service Center. The other 1% are sent to Vermont for processing due to certain (AWA) criminal history of the petitioner. This is true for other petition types. I-129F are ALL processed in California, and have been for years.
  5. Nope. She can only enter the U.S. on her immigrant visa if you are already in the U.S., or are accompanying her.
  6. Certainly seems like a communication mishap. Perhaps they mistakenly thought you were married? There is no visa that allows for anyone (even U.S. citizens- except for K-1 fiancé visas) to bring over unmarried partners.
  7. There is no 'partner visa' for students.
  8. You can't combine your brother in -law's income with your husband's. Yes, not working will affect your chances of him getting a visa, as will you not being domiciled in the United States. I suggest you read the I-864 form to get a better idea of the requirements.
  9. No, they can't just "stay." They have to be petitioned for an immigrant visa. The brother is very unlikely to get a student visa, as he very clearly has immigrant intent.

    EB-3

    Huh?
  11. You won’t get a waiver for that. The US is VERY strict about TB. Extra wait time is probably related to the fact that TB can be latent/dormant. Unfortunately, rules are rules, and you won’t be able to circumvent them.
  12. He needs a valid passport, full stop. There is no way around that.
  13. He will likely be denied for an F-1 for immigrant intent. You should petition him. It will take many years.

    Denial

    If you want to come to the US to live, you need to be petitioned for an immigrant visa.

    Denial

    You can always try.
  16. Honestly, I can’t see why you didn’t just get married, since that ceremony probably amounts to a wedding in the eyes of the consulate.
  17. The USC should join and begin reading here. He/she will be the one to file the petition for a spousal visa. You should both read the guides for the CR-1.
  18. LPRs are expected to file/pay if applicable as well.
  19. You should renew it. What if she needs to travel? There is know guarantee that she will even be approved for naturalization. Everyone should have a valid passport.
  20. Tax documents? Are you mistaking this process for sponsoring an immigrant visa?
  21. Affidavits are NOT required. We didn’t submit any. I recommend focusing on better quality evidence (bank statements, joint bills, jointly owned assets, jointly filed taxes, insurance, wills/POA etc). Ours went through Nebraska and took 18 months. No interview.
  22. There is nothing for you to do. He applies and has an interview. That’s it.
  23. Asking for a friend/shared account......😂
