    If you’re already a year into your consular case, it shouldn’t take that much longer. After that, the NVC stage doesn’t take very long either and the wait time for the interview will depend on which country you are from. At this point it will likely not take ‘several years’ anymore. If this was me, I would not change to AOS this late in the game, it’s just not worth the downsides of AOS.

    It should be in the 'regular' adjustment of status section https://www.visajourney.com/guides/i130-spouse-inside-usa/ and added to the list of required forms. The process for K1, K2 or K3 AOS hasn't changed

    Just pick a few that span the entire relationship. No need to submit 50 pictures, pick about 15 that are powerful. Same sex marriages are treated just like any other marriage, so no worries there.

    You just take it 1 day (or 1 hour on certain days) at a time. Each day is 1 day closer.
  5. Daphne .
    Yes, same here.

    Your evidence looks really good and your lawyer really is creating issues where there are none. They are asking you to create evidence that is unnecessary.
  7. Daphne .
    What have you submitted to them? And what did they tell you to add? The type of evidence that USCIS requires for the CR1 has not changed in last the 7-ish years that I have been a member here.
  8. Daphne .
    Shared finances and such are not required as evidence for consular cases because USCIS understands that couples who live in different countries usually don’t have that type of evidence. Haven’t heard anything about people going through more scrutiny. Where did you hear that?

    Paging @Crazy Cat for the awesome list!

    “Bring” as in for a visit or to move to the US?

    They need your current marriage certificate (so the one with your current spouse) and the divorce decree from your previous marriage.
  12. Daphne .
    Not a problem
  13. Daphne .
    But now you are in the US and want to adjust status from your B2? Or have you decided to stick with the K1 after all?
  14. Daphne .
    My lawyer never said anything like that, they did say that it’s always up to CBP if they let you in. Even if you do get denied entry on an Esta or tourist visa because they think you won’t leave the US after your visit (suspected immigrant intent), it won’t impact a pending I-130.
  15. Daphne .
    This is not true… I traveled on my Esta multiple times while my I-130 was processing and was even able to apply for a new one during that time.
  16. Daphne .
    This is such an important thing to consider, 100%! The adjustment of status always seems like a great idea until it doesn’t.

    No special visa needed, it will be a normal tourist visa or Esta (if you are from a VWP country).
  19. Daphne .
    I mean, come on…. 🙄 Yes, you can go ahead and file. There are guides here that have the step-by-step instructions. Good luck. Does she have a job and is she making enough to meet the income requirements?
  20. Daphne .
    I don’t think she’ll be denied, so don’t worry about that. So she’ll be fine with making the US her permanent home for the next few years, correct?

    If CBP told your mother that she should do AOS, then I can understand that you didn’t think anything of it. But that was kind of a strange action by the CBP officer, because they pretty much advised you something that is exactly the reason why people usually get denied entry for. Maybe they meant petitioning for an immigrant visa for your mother and not AOS, or maybe they actually let her enter enter knowing that she would file for an adjustment of status, I don’t know.

    OP already has a green card and needs to remove the conditions, which they can do on their own with a divorce waiver.

    You forgot the fees for the I-131 and the I-765. These are no longer free when filing with the I-485 Maybe I am mistaken, but I think medicals need to be included in the I-485 now. I would send everything by mail, just so you have it all together.

    Got it. To me that sounds like a business proposition and the ‘wrong way around’ but I understand there is a big gap between our cultures. Basing your decision on a potential partner’s embassy timelines is risky because all you can look at is the averages and those include the very quick, medium and slow cases. There is no way to know how long it would actually take for your potential case.
