Yes, up to you when you want to pay it. Your immigrant visa turns into temporary green card good for a year after you activate it at POE. To get the real plastic one, you pay the fee - takes them about 90 days to produce and mail you the card.

There's a fee to get the actual green card issued. Once you get your immigrant visa in the passport, you go online and pay for it on uscis.gov (either before or after entry into US).

Just make sure once you have your divorcee decree to check for any cool off period in your state before getting married again.

The timeline is a bit confusing - why was his first I-130 denied and were both I-485s also denied? If so, you'll also have an uphill battle as there very well may be something not disclosed. It's often the person is still married in their home country and that information surfaces at some point making subsequent marriages null and void.

They're not going to accept DCF when you have I-130 pending. Try the expedite or wait it out.

Even if your new citizenship allows for ESTA/VWP, as you have overstayed (regardless of citizenship), you'll still have to get a B1/B2 visa. Actions have consequences.

I doubt anyone would be calling you (from the UK included) when you're still waiting for interview letter.

That's insane. If he wants vaccine, your local department of health will give them for low cost or free for most. Edited to add - just get the paperwork of what he's received to satisfy the civil surgeon requirement.

Go get some mail sent in your name to the current address - you'll need it. Postcard from a friend, catalog, open a bank account and have them send you letter (or credit card offers), sign up for library card....

That's not quite right as per CDC itself: https://www.cdc.gov/immigrant-refugee-health/hcp/panel-physicians/vaccination.html So yes, as part of the exam they should go through the vaccination history and complete the form (and give a copy of the form to the applicant), but can't make a K-1 applicant take any vaccines if they decide they don't want any. Vaccination Documentation for Nonimmigrants The vaccination history of all applicants submitting for an examination by a U.S. panel physician should be reviewed and vaccinations they have previously received should be documented on the DS-3025 Form, even if they are nonimmigrants who are not required to meet vaccination requirements prior to travel to the United States. Although refugees and K visa applicants are not required to receive vaccines before traveling to the United States, they must meet the vaccination requirements when applying for adjustment of status or permanent resident status in the United States. Therefore, for these applicants, panel physicians must complete a DS-3025 Form if the applicant provides reliable vaccination records. A copy of this form must be provided to the applicant for use as his or her vaccination record in the United States.

Again, as a K-1 you have the option to get it all done in Canada OR opt out of all and handle it in the US. Solely up to you and if someone tells you otherwise they're wrong.

If you're going K-1 route you can decline any and all vaccines and deal with it in the US come I-693 time. Then you'll be talking to US civil surgeons who may be better positioned to accept medical injury and contraindications to vaccines. You can look up DS-3025 form yourself as that's what all overseas medical exams include.

I wouldn't be showing up for an interview without a current employment letter.

Have you considered Utah online marriage while you're in Morocco?

Nope. Your petitioner either needs to be already in the US or enter the US with you. Can't get in without the petitioner.

No, the joint sponsor has to provide the whole I-864 package (tax returns, proof of being USC or LPR, employment letter...)

I did years ago - our marriage certificate and my birth certificate. No translation was asked.

More like Frankfurt IMO. Try them for DCF.

USCIS is who you FOIA (back then it was called INS).

Why wouldn't she want to go to SSA? It benefits her to be marked as a USC in all available databases starting with SSA, then DMV, register to vote, update global entry...

I'd find a different joint sponsor.

Sorry to rain on your parade but I wouldn't expect a positive outcome - but do come back and let us know how it goes. Simple reason - it's known even on the basic level that F2A is for spouse and any children and that if one naturalizes during this process of waiting for F2A, they better have file I-130s from the get go or be prepared for the extra time needed for the I-130s of the catch up family members with the originally petitioned individual (spouse). There's a reason we tell everyone with pending F2A to NOT take the oath before the family members have received F2A visas and ARE in the US but you obviously never thought about it.

Umm, they're not. Once you pass the USCIS, it needs to make it to the US embassy and those are not quick given the backlog of cases they're working on. Stay the course as it's cheaper and definitely a better option as green card and ability to work from the moment she steps into the country through POE. And what's your consulate that you say people are flying through with fast processing? AKA - complete your profile on VJ.

That just may be the way they print them nowadays.
