You might have to talk to someone in HR. Get your documents and reasons together. All explanations should be USCIS documented info. For any defect (item not available, expired stamp, ....), you point to a USCIS document. No explanation from you. Some people just know how to check off boxes. If anything is out of place, they don't know how to deal with it.

I think employers should be able to verify your immigration status on the everify portal Not sure why they are asking you for additional documentation. You are supposed to fill out the I9 paperwork and they are supposed to verify Also not sure what you told them during your interview. I think you gave them info that they are using improperly. https://www.e-verify.gov/

First this is primarily about the couple and not their parents. I believe that while at the interview, requests made for documents can be questioned by simply saying that it was not requested on the official list. Most COs would not go that far unless you really messed up your petition. In that case anything is game and you caused it. The attached snapshot also does not look like one for the IR1/CR1 category. Not sure which visa that is for. You need to look at the requirements for your category.

When exactly can you file for citizenship
randy32 replied to Rapha85's topic in US Citizenship General Discussion
The rule is 90 days before the date on the date in your case, 01/16/2020. Don't try to be smart and file on the exact date, 10/18/2022. At least 10/19/2022, an additional couple days will not hurt. Due to days in a leap year and how USCIS counts the days, the additional days will help prevent you from submitting early. Even one day too early can lead to a rejection that you will get months later -
Expedite request eligibility for childcare
randy32 replied to user3897's topic in National Visa Center (Dept of State)
If you feel you meet the requirements for expedite, you should file. It maybe accepted. Too many variables are applied by different embassies. Also expedites are approved on a case to case basis. What I can tell you is get to the point fast because no one has the time to read a long letter -
In my opinion, I think you should work on getting a certified copy of your marriage cert first. You will most likely not get that original back. You will need to upload a copy at the NVC stage and might be asked for during the interview.

Update SSN to remove DHS restriction?
randy32 replied to CDNgirl09's topic in Social Security Numbers
SS offices are open to walk in appointments -
For taxes owed, as long as it is being rectified as in being paid, you are fine. In your case, you stated that you are on a payment plan so you are ok there. For taxes return documentation, the requirement is "1040 and supporting documents" or "tax transcript" NOT both. In your case, you filed for an extension, so it was now due in October, then you filed before October deadline. So again you are ok. Just take the return and supporting documents. The key is when you filed, not when it is processed. There are people in worse situations than yours. I don't see any reason for concern

Tax docs for interview in Morocco (split)
randy32 replied to Annie280's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
You should have filed MFJ not MFS, leaving some money on the table for the IRS, you can always amend if it is not too much trouble. 1040, W2 and all supporting documents (ie a copy of everything you mailed in to file) for 2021 since your return has not yet been processed. With regards to original documents, unless you have something like a divorce decree, I don't recall any originals that are needed. I would recommend putting all the documents needed together now and sending to your spouse. Electronically is faster. If originals get lost in the mail, get new certified ones. Better to have all documents gathered now then waiting for you to travel back. Personally I would not go for the interview because there is usually no allowance for spouses. -
Do I need to worry?
randy32 replied to Kemsab's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
Gmail spam deletes after 30 days if I am correct. Not sure what your email provider's policy is. Since this was approved over 30 days ago, I think you might have to call NVC to get the case and invoice numbers -
Hospitals asking for your passport as an id sounds normal but to stamp it? I don't see why. So far, this seems to be something that occurred in the Philippines. Passports are needed strictly for border crossings. It has no use in a medical setting besides as an id. The longer you follow VJ, the more you get to see some unique and sometimes outdated practices

12 YEAR OLD CHILD OF US CITIZEN FATHER WANTS TO VISIT THE US
randy32 replied to fytingspirit's topic in Tourist Visas
I think it would be best to file CRBA for the child and apply for a US passport for the kid. The wait time would likely be shorter compared to a B visa. The kid would be able to travel that way anytime.- 23 replies

As long as there is no overlap, you are fine. Some people spend years separated and others years in divorce proceedings before it is concluded. They date on the divorce decree is not the date the actual relationship ended. That is sometimes months or years prior. The date on the decree is just paperwork catching up. DON'T MESS WITH THE PAPERWORK. Getting married again right after a divorce happens more than you know.

To what @JeanneAdil listed, add lawyer fees which varies. Also don't forget items like your medical, police report(s), transport and accommodation if you don't live close to the embassy. Other incidentals after these tend to be less costly

Cease and Desist letter, and/or a restraining order should be filed by you and/or husband. If this issue comes up as you are going through the greencard process, you will be able to show that you are dealing with it. That can also be used as proof that your marriage is real. While not ideal, she is kind of helping you but I would only use this evidence if the issue is brought up by USCIS

K-1 visa is non-immigrant visa that is treated like an immigrant visa. Nothing to upload to NVC. Follow the instructions provided by the embassy when the appointment was scheduled. Affidavit of Support and supporting documents goes with fiancé to the embassy for the interview. Everyone has to had taken the vaccine or gotten a waiver before the medical would be performed.

Cr1 visa approved
randy32 replied to PrinceChisom's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports
Case was approved, just be patient. I think the usually tell you up to 2 weeks to get your passport back. -
W2 Requested from Foreign Employer

Uploaded a letter, and explain that it was foreign income. This is a known issue that occurs from time to time. -
Evidence of a bonafide marriage
randy32 replied to Maam1819's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
Adding spouse to credit card might not make sense especially if the spouse has no use for the card in the country of residence. Don't create what does not make sense -
Evidence of a bonafide marriage
randy32 replied to Maam1819's topic in IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures
#1, 2, 3 are hard to come by for those who are out of the country married to a USC. So you have to be a bit creative, and add other items to strengthen your petition. Those from high fraud countries need more than other countries. -
USC Presence (or other) requirements
randy32 replied to Skyman's topic in US Citizenship General Discussion
If in doubt, file later. It does not have to be filed at exactly the 33 months mark. Take 33 months, factor days outside the country (if the count against legal presence), add a few more days to be safe. File the petition. One day too soon and you might end up refiling months later again after a rejection. You spouse already has the 10 year GC. There is no legal presence requirement for the USC.
