    For first time entry using your visa it is “ emigrating to US”. You do not become an LPR until you enter the US. The visa is your permission to request entry .. It in itself does not confer lpr status
  2. Lil bear
    Good timely reminder

    No problems Plans change. each persons application stands alone Each person who eventually travels must have v their own visa application, Interview and approval

    Not mad. Sorry if it came over that way. There is nothing you can do to overcome the impact of the relatives overstay on your application. You need to demonstrate to the Interviewing officer that your risk of overstay is v v low. Strong ties to your home country are the best evidence. If you are not a permanent resident in Aust then being on a temporary visa there isn’t a great start. But.. You file the application.. pay the $$ and go to the interview That’s the only way you will know .. Wish the answer was better .. but .. good luck

    Lying on a visa application …. Do not do it. Do not .. do not. Will this mean you are refused a tourist visa .. maybe. It’s called consequences and unfortunately often we face consequences of other peoples actions. 🤬 Lie on your application .. not only visa denial but a ban for misrepresentation.

    The number needed for the Global entry application is not the same as the A number ( Alien Registration Number .. 7-9 digits long) GE requires the 13 “ digit” .. usually 3 letters then 10 digits which is the receipt number generated when the GC fee is paid Most GC receipts are now IOE…..
  7. Lil bear
    No The officer will take the paperwork and assess. It doesn’t go back to submitting via CEAC
  8. Lil bear
    Not unless you get an RFE from the NVC telling you to upload it. If you get the standard letter telling you that you don’t meet the requirements and ADVISES you to get a joint sponsor and to take the paperwork to the interview.. then do just that. As stated the IO makes the decision
  9. Lil bear
    No

    A self written letter isnt enough … You will need evidence of establishing domicile as a minimum .. and the consulate can require that you already have domicile .. it varies Case by case and with each consulate. You will need a joint sponsor unless you are transferring with an ongoing job and the income is continuing .. or you have liquid assets sufficient for the I864
  11. Lil bear
    Unless you return to the US before the interview and have stable employment that meets the I 864 requirements, you will need a joint sponsor. Montreal almost always requires the petitioner to already be domicile in the US at the time of the beneficiary interview so best prepare for that scenario.

    Pay big $$ Go through their state ACA marketplace Pay big $$ Buy into Medicare after 5 yrs as LPR ( if over 65) and pay big $$ Live in a state that gives Medicaid benefits to LPR.. think there are about 5 of those.

    The wait for GE application is 6-8 months
  14. Lil bear
    Unknown. Days.. weeks .. months .. no way of knowing. Hopefully hers is a simple one more which is just waiting on the updated form and current medical. Hoping.

    Follow the instructions from the Consulate. The State dept instructions are generic and each consulate as their own specific requirements which may be different to .. and overrule.. the generic guidelines
  16. Lil bear
    Nope. Sorry. But chances of rfe is much lower as long as you pay careful attention to the instructions and submit all required documentation the first time
  17. Lil bear
    Nope. Just use his address.

    The requirement to file AR 11 is one of the requirements listed in “Maintaining your LPR status” which is usually sent with your GC or given with your visa. No need for a lawyer. E file the AR11 for each US address change .. not for overseas visits .. use your relatives address for those periods if you had already moved out of your own residence. Print off a copy of the AR11 and the confirmation email that is generated in response. Late filing is better than not filing The 6 month.. actually it is 180 days.. applies to individual trips not “ in total”. Yes repeated long trips, even if under 180 days each, can be questioned.. but you have good evidence of maintaining your US domicile while away. The total number of days out of the country is the other number already quoted in previous replies .. overall you need to be physically present in the US for over 50% of the 3/5 year period relating to your application

    You must complete the I864 completely though the assets section is optional. You are the primary sponsor even when using a joint sponsor. Do not omit the required documentation such as tax transcript pay slip etc. The joint sponsor must include all documentation including evidence of assets. Failure to provide these at the NVC stage May result in RFE and delay The beneficiary will need to carry all the originals of the documents submitted online at the NVC stage. The consulate will give you specific instructions when you are at that stage
  20. Lil bear
    That is the usual choice yes .. but you can ask for directions .. some POE have specific booths for immigrants .. or lines they prefer immigrants to go through .. rarely signposted
  21. Lil bear
    Not a problem. yes .. all together. As petitioner, you must either already be in the US or enter at the same time as the beneficiaries
  22. Lil bear
    Online. Easy. https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript
  23. Lil bear
    Think of page as a summary sheet .. Yes prepare it yourself. Then p 2 on are supporting evidence for p1. Have you accessed your official IRS tax transcript ?
  24. Lil bear
    Some have them before they apply to immigrate and continue to use them until they immigrate. Not sure if they grant new applications during the process.

    CBP would see his visa history. They let him in. Many visit using a visa waiver TN or visitor visa form the IR process. Is he still in the US or back in Canada now?
