Depends when you got married (month/year), when your mother became a citizen (month/year). If you got married before your mother became a USC, that petition is dead.

No, you have no relationship with your husband's siblings. He has to be a USC before he can petition his siblings and that's probably at least a 17-20 year wait until immigrant visa in hand.

Sounds like she left the children in Brazil and was in the US and overstayed her visa then returned to Brazil.

Which country are you renewing in? 1. Yes, your first visa application was refused - so list that date on the form - they'll see you've subsequently received a visa. 2. Service is service - you served in the military - provide the details. 3. No idea - depends where you're renewing. 4. Provide details of your planned trip even if you haven't booked flights/accommodations and similar. Why are you going to the US? 5. Social presence would be accounts (handles) for all social media - facebook/twitter/instagram/tiktok and similar - no idea what all is out there. 6. Honestly, this is something you'd raise at the interview which you may or may not be required to attend at renewal - I'd ask the visa appointment scheduling number for your consulate.

Your profile says Removing conditions? Why are you renewing a tourist visa if you're an LPR?

Yes, once she gets to the US on the immigrant visa she just takes her passport with visa, marriage certificate and completed SS-5 form.

Yes, you can use her new married name on the I-130. Passport won't come into play until NVC time some 12-14 months down the line which gives her plenty of time to update her documents (in my home country it took less than 2 weeks to get everything updated). For SSN - she'll need to handle that upon arrival to the US with her immigrant visa. Number stays for life. I also had SSN from when I was on J-1 and there were no issues updating it after arrival. Come DS-260 time, she should mark NO on the question if she wants the SSN to be automatically issued.

No. Visas are issued at the embassies overseas, not in the US.

You file it online and with all the required documents, get your Notice of Action and then ... wait. wait for USCIS to approve the petition and hopefully doesn't come back to you with request for evidence. Then it goes to NVC, and after you're done with NVC they eventually schedule the interview for your husband.

I think selective service registration is part of AOS form or DS-260. You just may need to get in touch with selective service in person to verify if he has been registered - sometimes there are glitches with online databases.

You don't have to upload it all - one piece at a time spread over a long time will keep your case open. But you do have to do something before Aug 18.

What's a record? I can show you my chickenpox scar on my stomach. That's all I had to show to the doctor years ago.

Why not do your travel, return, wait the three months and THEN apply?

Varicella should be marked as not age appropriate for most people as you probably had it when you were a child.

I-130 with I-485 as well as I-131, and I-765.

Again, is he a USC? Unless he's a USC the kids will be LPRs until their mother naturalizes. IF he is a USC, don't pay for green card issuance fees and take them to a passport appointment (probably best to wait until SS card in hand) to get passports issued and follow up with certificate of citizenship N-600 later on. Mother will also need to be at the appointment. The wife is sounds like it refused pending receipt of paperwork they asked for it. That's not a real refusal - as soon as she gets them the papers in she'll get the visa in her passport.

Your post is missing several important pieces of information before anyone can venture to guess the answer: Is your in-law a USC? How old are the children now and how old were they when he married their mother? Also, why was his wife refused? Was it a missing piece of paperwork or something else?

Stick to the legal ceremony that got you married.

Unfortunately, even though you seem to be a victim of a very dishonest person, you'll still be tied to I-864 (for 10 years or until he naturalizes - earliest would be 5 years after entering on immigrant visa) even though your husband disappeared. You can try to get in touch with Islamabad embassy and USCIS but don't expect much. Start getting your affairs in the order - divorce, take him off any medical, life, or car insurance if you had him listed as beneficiary. Same for bank accounts, retirement or 401k, savings... If you're renting, get his name removed as a tenant. If you co-signed anything for him, see how to get out of that financial obligation.

Since you can't find a joint sponsor, your USC husband should head to the US and get a job while you wait for your visa interview.

How does the petitioner live? Off of what?

No apostille needed. The instructions are very clear what qualifies for translations.

Any long absences out of US for more than 6 months?

Postpone your flights until you've filed a new I-90 and have a new stamp in the passport.

Do NOT lie ever.
