  1. The next important step is marry within 90days upon arrival in the US. Then with marriage certificate apply to adjust status using I-485. Also recommended to file I-765, and I-131. Read the VJ guides:
  2. Possible with adjustment of status. Not possible with consular processing. You are doing consular processing. With consular processing whatever name you have on passport is what will appear on greencard.
  3. Yes. But you must absolutely make sure to obtain that new passport because regardless of what you put on DS-260, the greencard will be in whatever name is in the passport, and not the DS-260.
  4. Greencard name = passport name. So the only way to make that happen is to make sure the passport has the name you want.
  5. No, the name on green card will match what's in the passport.
  6. IMO, you could go with either option. However, your maiden name is what will be printed on your visa & green card regardless of what option you go with, since that's the name you have in your passport. Passport name = Greencard name. No other way.
  7. Op, if she wants to be a citizen there's no upside in waiting. Wife should go ahead and file N400 and get the ball rolling. Best case scenario she gets a combo interview; if not, well at least she's gotten the ball rolling. Good luck.
  8. I bet your husband who attended the interview might have an intuition as to why it's been sent back to USCIS. Have you guys discussed what transpired at the interview? What country is this? Has your husband applied for any US visa before? Has your husband been married before? Have you received the NOIR from USCIS?
  9. Op marry your partner. Once you have marriage certificate in hand file the following forms: I-130, I-485, I-765, I-864, I-131 Good luck.
  10. Option 2. Travel to USA but don't volunteer to explain anything unless you are specifically asked by the officer. Is it a 10 year greencard?
  11. Is your brother petitioning his fiancee?
  12. Green card holders can't petition for a fiancée to stay in the USA. Son should marry fiancee and petition her and son using I-130. However, she still can't stay inside the US because she doesn't qualify to adjust status. She'll will have to return home and wait out the rest of the process. Let me stress this, make sure she doesn't overstay her ESTA stay. Good luck.
  13. USCIS does not add I-129F K3 applications to your account. You have to add it manually yourself using the receipt which you've already done.
  14. Whatever email provided to USCIS will get notices from NVC. Additionally, at NVC stage you can add multiple emails to receive messages so if you want beneficiary to also receive notices add their email to your CEAC account when it becomes available. Good luck.
  15. +Have you filed anything at all with USCIS (both officially and unofficially)? I-130, I-129F? +Have you been told to fill an application for K3 visa with US consulate in Nairobi?
  16. If they need paperwork that wasn't present they'll send RFE and instructions on how to submit RFE. If you don't respond to RFE case will be denied just like any other USCIS case. However with N600 you can't refill the form again (you can appeal, and again you'll be told how to). Again filing of N600 is one time (one shot); the person on VJ who told said person isn't wrong.
  17. Well, spouse will be out of status after 90 days so she becomes deportable at that point. Filing within 90 days gives her authorized stay and less risk of being deported.
  18. You are only allowed one N600 filing; it's one shot to me. Filing (and any appeals and motions are still all one case). If appeal fails there is no re-filing of N600.
  19. Good catch. I meant to type I-765. Long work day.
  20. File I-130 and I-485 concurrently for the child to adjust status. You can also file I-751 and I-131 at the same time. If the child is still under 18 when adjustment is approved, then they will automatically gain citizenship.
  21. I don't see any issues returning if he has been outside for 8 months. CBP can ask tough questions like they did the previous time but he will be let in. For future reference also note CBP cannot revoke his greencard; the worst they can do is refer him to immigration judge. You seem to provide him good moral and family/relationship support but please help him also get great medical support. Wishing you guys all the best.
  22. No and Yes. Recommendation: also file I-751 and I-131.
  23. Op, your F2 visa is no longer valid because you are not in F2 status anymore; you've successfully COS to E2 through USCIS. You can travel outside the US but you can't simply re-enter on either your F2 visa or your approved USCIS E2 status. You must obtain a new E2 visa to reenter at US consulate. The kicker is unlike other COS (like H1B) where one can travel outside and simply go to a consulate and get a new visa affixed, E2 COS folks will have to submit an entirely new application and re-meet the requirements for a E2 visa to be issued. Basically the consulate won't simply acknowledge your USCIS E2 COS approval status; they'll want you to start over.
  24. The airline only needs to make sure you have valid documents to be admitted at destination; that's it. And because you have valid documents anything else is beyond them. CBP will handle your admission and I don't think you should have any issues though they could end up asking plenty questions.
