Alabamak1 got a reaction from Imani in I751 is pending for 6 years should I apply citizenship?
@John501 if I where you...i would definitely apply for naturalization. since it looks you are already 5 years with GC. Waiting for ROC is just a waste of time now. Maybe if you get lucky, they will do a combo interview and you are done with USCIS

Alabamak1 got a reaction from HF & HB in I-485 question
As long as you file for AOS before the 90 days...your wife is in status. If you answer K-1 visa is fine

Alabamak1 got a reaction from K@S in Opening Bank Account (Individual/Joint) in US with K-1 fiancé visa
1) yes
2) SS# and ID (passport is ok)
3) no, you have to do it, and/or be with him and do a joint bank account
4) no problems there...i suggest to use transferwise.com
5) no, its just another proof of bonafide marriage for AOS interview
6) depends on the bank/credit union
7) if you plan to change your name....do the SS# applications first. Stay away from big banks.
They tend to charge fees and are a pain in the @$$
9) Tranferwise.com if available in your country

Alabamak1 got a reaction from seganku in Fiance Visa: Must be married in 90 days or adjustment of status in 90 days?
you want to get married and AOS filed within the 90 days, so your fiance is not out of status.

Alabamak1 got a reaction from Carpe Vinum in K1 Status mismatched for SSN
is this a case of common name issue...
1) normally you can get SS# under k-1 before your i-94 is 2 weeks to expire. As far as needing a SS# for getting married is new to me. you wont need it. Usually k-1 apply for ss# w/o problems and get it and after marriage they go and change it.
2) yes, that is correct
Some people say you can get medical insurance w/o SS#, but that was not possible with my employer. We had to wait for SS#, period. Bank account was another problem, no SS#, no joint bank account either.
DL is different by state, good luck

Alabamak1 got a reaction from Carpe Vinum in NVC Case #
OP, I suggest to call twice a week. Once on Monday and once on Friday to not go crazy. Eventually you will get your Case#. Call in the afternoon after all the mail has been processed

Alabamak1 got a reaction from King's in After k1 second interview
@John & Rose may be more informed on this. He is going through spousal visa now and had applied for k-1.

Alabamak1 got a reaction from TandSarahJane in After k1 second interview
Well, this might be a problem, because you stated something false and know they may think this beneficiary is lying from there on. If you where put under AP and never come out of that loop, would be better to cancel the fiance process and get married and apply for spousal visa. Just my 2 cents.

Alabamak1 reacted to Crazy Cat in Apply for EAD & SSN two weeks from arrival....
What do you mean by "valid"? A SS card obtained immediately after arrival via a K-1 is extremely useful for things such as opening a bank account, landlord background checks, establishing credit, filing taxes, etc......I'd call that a valid card for most anything other than work authorization which would, of course, require an EAD or GC.

Alabamak1 got a reaction from geowrian in Possible questions to ask...Help pls
making infopass and not really knowing what to ask....seems a little waste of time. Thankfully, they are going to make it harder just to do what OP said. I hear and read how many can't even get an infopass. with USCIS is all about time. let them work, so others with real emergencies and actual problems can get their applications moving or taken care of.

Alabamak1 reacted to milimelo in reporting fraud
Omg just give the info to op! Both ICE and embassies get plenty of poison letters - up to them if they want to investigate or not.
Op, we have info on how to provide information to ICE on every visa journey page - follow the instructions. For Ankara and Istanbul fraud prevention units use this link to get their email addresses: https://tr.usembassy.gov/visas/fraud-prevention-unit/

Alabamak1 reacted to Cryssiekins in Does it matter who's name on cashier's check?
My husband and I have a checking account that doesn’t have checks (bc we have no use for them and it saves us money on bank fees) so my immigration fees are always via a money order from the bank.
Anyway, my point in this comment is all the money orders I have gotten have a phone number on them where you can call (it’s an automated system) to check the status of the check, so you will know when it was presented to a financial institution and honored.
If you kept a copy of the money order or receipt, look for a phone number. (The one I have had the number listed as “for stop payments blah blah blah”, but there’s an option on there to check the status.
