Maybe he realized you're just desperate to get to the USA...
Sorry, but this is how it sounds based on your post.

He can get a joint sponsor.
 
PS
You sound desperate to get to the US.

I don't see the benefit. The whole purpose of global entry is to make it faster to get through the CBP process faster at the entry point for those of us who travel internationally on a regular basis.
 
I don't think it would have a significant bearing on the likelyhood of the cr-1 visa being approved. It would likely only have the potential to speed up the CBP process a little when entering with the visa. However, she would still have to go to secondary, so it would only reduce the wait in line to get to the first CBP officer.
 
Also, I don't think there are any enrollment centers in Argentina. So she would have to enter the US just to enroll.

@iris_s I am aware of how to find and read the version dating and what the uscis website is saying. My point is that they are only accepting the old version for a little while longer. So perhaps rather than stressing yourself out over trying to beg and plead for the old version you should simply use the new version. If you are able to track down the old version and complete it, but they receive it too late, then they will simply reject it. And then where will you be? You'll be competing the new version anyway and have a later priority date.

Yes, the new I-130 and I-130A together replace the old I-130 with two G-325A's. As mentioned, you should use the new I-130 and I-130A, the old ones won't be accepted for much longer and you don't want to risk a rejection

Sorry, I don't think there ever was a "12/23/2016" version. The prior version that was released was the 03/25/15 version, which was in use until the released the new version (02/27/17). I would suggest just using the new version since you don't have the old one. They are only accepting the old version for one more month.

@Robbai Since you are living in china now you may want to look into the option of doing a direct consular filing (DCF), it can speed things up a lot. I'm not familiar with what is required for you to qualify but there is a lot of info online and several people here can also help.
 
Regardless of if you do DCF, one other issue to be aware of since you are currently living overseas. You may be asked to show intent to re establish domicile in the US. It shouldn't be a big issue for you, but it is an extra piece of information that may be relevant for you since you are not currently living in the US.

I assume you are doing DCF? If you haven't filed yet for CR1 and you aren't doing DCF then I'm not sure how you are thinking that you would be entering with your wife in 6 months. Current processing times are ~10-12 months for non-DCF (which is most of us).
 
I would think that you can just include copies of both your US and UK passport and include a short explanation so that it will be clear to them what is going on. But sorry, no direct knowledge of people previously in this situation.

No, you don't have to have an exact date. But you can't indicate that you may not actually get married. It is perfectly fine to say that you are still planning the details but that you will get married within the 90 days. If you have an idea of what date range, you can say "We plan to marry sometime between X and Y, but we are still finalizing the details."
 
I highly doubt that you will be able to stay with him throughout the POE. Are you a USC? There is usually a line for USC and residents and then a totally separate line for everyone else.

You are fine, it only means that you may have over/under paid in taxes throughout the year. So you may owe more not to make up for it, or you may get money back now because they withheld too much during the year.
 
The number of exemptions/allowances that you claim with your employer doesn't have to match what shows on your actual tax filing. Some people choose to tell their employer to use more or fewer deductions when deciding how much tax to withhold from their pay. If you tell your employer to use fewer (such as 0) then they will withhold more money for taxes, so at the end you may get money back because they overestimated how much money you would owe in taxes. However, if you tell your employer to use more (such as 4) then they will withhold less money because they assume that your tax burden will be less, but at the end of the year you may end up owing additional money.
 
In the end it is the numbers that you claim on the tax filing (i.e., 1040) that mater for determining the exact taxes owed, and the amounts of money that your employer withheld throughout the year for the taxes. Some people choose to have their employer to take extra withholding (lower exemption/allowance) so that they can expect to get money back when they file their taxes. But other people prefer to get more with each paycheck (have fewer taxes withheld, higher exemption/allowance) and then owe money to the government when they file their taxes. They key is to not owe too much at the end of the year, if you owe over a certain amount at the end of the year then they may penalize you and add on extra fees for not paying enough throughout the year.
