  1. Illegally? The OP in no way indicated that anyone was trying to enter illegally.
  2. Did you get a 48 month one? They keep increasing the extension durations, lol. Yes, they will send another one if it gets close to the expiration and still no 10 year card. When did you file?
  3. All you can do is wait. Ours took 18 months, Nebraska Service Center.
  4. Evidence used by people who went through low/no-fraud consulates is irrelevant in your case. Pakistan has lots of issues, so you will need to front load any petition for that, whether it is for a K-1 or CR-1. We definitely see way more denials for Pakistan K-1s than CR-1s, so I agree that it is an odd choice. Processing times are meaningless if you first get a denial and have to start over with a new petition.
  5. I think you were in my 2018 K-1 group here on VJ. Have you not removed conditions yet?
  6. Just go for it and report back. In all my years of reading VJ, I've never come across anyone trying to use a C visa to be able to stay in the US as a tourist for a few days. There is no point in getting frustrated at members just trying to help when you are requesting info on something that just isn't really done.
  7. Why would that even be an issue? Women travel independently all over the world, every day.
  8. There are no interviews for I-130. There is no way to know whether you’ll be called for an interview for the AOS.
  9. You're quick to point out that you don't like VJ member responses and that we treat people like morons, but honestly......the fact that this was unclear is astonishing. I don't think Lemonslice was being sarcastic. It is a legitimate question.
  10. Having an arranged marriage does not change the burden of proof for the bonafides .
  11. That phrase as an update seems to be meaningless in terms of timelines, from what I’ve observed.
  12. Dude, it's been 5 months. Processing time for that FO is 7.5 months. Relax.
  13. That doesn’t negate other visa requirements, such as providing evidence of the dissolution of prior marriages.
  14. Right. My point was that even countries that have a systemic record of marriages (the U.S. does not), any marriage that takes place elsewhere and is not reported by the citizen, will not be part of that record.
  15. No. USCIS is only looking for the basic requirements to approve the petition (the one required visit). Anything else that was not included will have to be brought to the interview.
  16. A negative can’t be proven. This is why things like the Filipino CENOMAR are useless. People get married and divorced outside of their own countries all the time. Heck, with the advent of the Utah weddings, a Rwandan could marry, and their government would never know.
  17. This is the problem. Despite our explanations, OP hasn’t figured out that the issue isn’t the applicant’s marital status history; it’s the lies used in an attempt to get a visa, which now require a divorce decree for a marriage that never existed.
  18. How was my comment an “unnecessary bad feeling”? it was not clear from how you worded things that you realized, based on current processing times, that your petition has awhile before its adjudicated. We get a lot of new members who choose to do a K-1 without understanding current processing times. good luck.
  19. “Our month is approaching in the queue”? You’re < 5 months in, and the USCIS official processing time for I-129F is 15 months. It won’t be adjudicated anytime soon.
  20. I’d be surprised if USCIS doesn’t look into this case for fraud.
  21. That’s great news, Daisy! Please keep us in the loop. Sounds like he will be all set up to receive the best possible care.
  22. I have only heard of that making an impact for initial petitions, (such as I-129) when evidence was omitted. Haven’t seen it for AOS or ROC with new evidence. Normally evidence of events that occurred after the packet is sent would be submitted at the interview, if there is one.
