  1. You'd want to write to USCIS and withdraw the I-129f petition. Simply state you're withdrawing - providing a reason is entirely optional. That way you have no loose ends. Address to send to is on your I-797 receipt.
  2. What have you done to raise it with whoever is scheduling appointments? All embassies have contact us form or even phone number for visa scheduling (3rd party processor/scheduling) - call them with proof of wrong payment, bank statement or cc screenshot that it was paid wrongly. Ask them to look into this.
  3. You'd be surprised what COVID shutdowns have done on various issues - immigration petition processing as well as visa interviews too.
  4. And you're interested to coming to the US where at least 200,000 people are killed yearly by medical errors?
  5. Plenty of experimentation (aka research studies) done overseas.
  6. Actually, with a good lawyer and if the husband is USC (as it seems he is), they can ask for cancellation of removal and for immigration court to allow AOS. Of course needs to write up that she's been contributing member of society (work, volunteering, tax-paying person) and how her deportation would negatively affect the USC spouse. Where's she from?
  7. If they have access to previous non-immigrant visa applications, fair chance they'd have access to previous DV lottery entries as well.
  8. Your best bet is to email (I provided the address earlier) and ask if they would accept notarized form from Moroccan notary (Morocco is part of Hague apostille convention so you'd have to get that type of notarization done on the paper from the father). Then proceed as they tell you.
  9. Husband can get notary appointment at US embassy in Casablanca to get the paper notarized. Schedule appointment: https://evisaforms.state.gov/Instructions/ACSSchedulingSystem.asp Email: acscasablanca@state.gov
  10. If you're the one helping her, you put your name on the form. They won't be calling you.
  11. Did you try calling up USCIS line and asking them? I'd imagine priority date wouldn't change - you filed when you filed. Just a matter of what field office does when they have your file - FIFO - first in first out or PD based.
  12. When/if you move, make sure to complete both AR-11 (beneficiary completes online - confirmation online) AND I-865 (petitioner/sponsor does hard copy mailed in - you will get a receipt notice in mail). No one can tell you what's going to work. You can look up USCIS office locators for your old/new zip code. That will tell you if the case will change offices - most likely given the distance from SD and SF (for example it didn't for me in Chicago field office).
  13. They do have waivers for fee payment - N400 definitely. Did you look that up?
  14. Married is married - no matter where the marriage took place. They couldn't continue with K-1 as that's for people to get married in the US. They did the right thing by filing I-130 after getting married.
  15. There’s no I-90 to file. Husband didn’t even interview - yet to finish NVC and get interview. I wouldn’t worry until visa in passport and even then it can be fixed at POE.
  16. If the idea is to prevent the second wife from coming - email the embassy with details you have on petitioner and beneficiary.
  17. 1. Same as his sister coming with mother. Just bear in mind the one year rule - if you go past that you'll need to petition him as his stepfather or mother under F2A. 2. DO NOT DO THIS - immigration fraud. And three even though you may not be thinking ahead - consider getting the 17 year old under K-1 visa, doing the AOS and getting her AP to go back and study. She'll thank you later. Or, if really not coming, try to get married before the eldest turns 18 so you as the stepfather can petition her before she turns 21.
  18. You complete the forms and provide documents (some places have you do it online) and child’s mother can take the child to the embassy for appointment.
  19. As her child and her sponsor you should be providing financial, medical insurance and anything else she may need. There are doctors offices that take sliding scale or cash payments for those who don't have insurance.
  20. Since you’re not working and relocating for a job dcf option is not available. File 4 I-130s. You can do it online.
  21. I’d be going to DOL on non-payment for work performed issues. Try looking up Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. And next time you want to raise issues on pay hours missing, email - even if it’s just to “memorialize our phone conversation on X date, time, when I raised pay discrepancy you advised - here’s my supporting timesheet provided to HR for X number of hours while me pay statement is showing y number of hours. Please provide contract/timekeeping SOP whatever saying employees need to work for Z number of hours for free as I’d love to consult with Department of Labor on forced unpaid work hours”. Email gives you timeline, and often serves as the starting point (for example EEO issues which you could potentially use -have 45 days time limit from the day the incident happens or you’re made aware- being an immigrant from X country, employer retaliated against me by forcing me to forfeit worked hours thus reducing my salary by X percent over the course of X months in contravention to hiring contract signed on z date) …
  22. You want to call Manila consular to see if her visa is voided after you know she overstayed and was returned from mid-way point? That’s not going to happen.
  23. Because it’s not DHS that voided her visa, CBP/State did. DHS addressed her issue, they’re not the ones who need to get a new tourist visa, that’s on your MIL.
  24. We sometimes get that when traveling on one-way tickets. All have global entry/tsa pre-check and still happens.
