USCIS relies on a criminal report when they have to investigate / investigation would have been prompted by the arrest and conviction report your spouse had to provide with the petition You can research yourself and see if he is on the National registry https://www.fbi.gov/how-we-can-help-you/scams-and-safety/sex-offender-registry you can not see if he is listed in the child registry as that is for law enforcement but a US attorney could help with that

Sounds like the father now thinks there is a "rich american" that can pay him off/ and that might be cheaper than lawyer

return to Brazil and marry the spouse visa is cheaper and she could work upon entry to the USA this saves the AOS which is expensive and helps with work , having a job that would give her health care insurance and allow you to go full time (if she is agreed to this )

they will need one from her too / copy of it is ok then they will proceed with your case as this is all the office is waiting for

make sure your NVC documents show you have searched the cost of health care insurance in your state as the reason jamicia is om the ban is for using Public Benefits and she will loose her Canadian health care when she is in the USA / cover all the bases so he doesn't experience a long AP after the interview Good luck to you and mom

please fill out a timeline and ID the country Also ID the US office (usually for K1 , its California but could also be Texas) you can find normal processing times on following site https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ If that document was noticed as not in the pagers upon receiving the petition , it will still take normal processing times u probably will not hear anything till petition is sent to NVC Hopefully u did have the intent -to-marry from each party not just 1

Is mom now in Canada as she would need to interview there if petition is using her Canadian citizenship

In most states you need to change DL after 30 days as a requirement so this may affect your plans

Before fiancee arrives call SS and schedule her appointment for a few days after her arrival She will need passport with visa and her birth certificate and I 94 record you can print out the SS-5 page from SS site and have it filled out by her to take to the office you don't have to wait for marriage and getting it done ASAP is advisable Sometimes getting the appointment after marriage is delayed and makes it impossible to get until the EAD is approved Don't wait

you would use her current name on the blank page to add additional info ,, put the page number that has 32 (listing her) and put all names she has used past and present '(include nickname if she ever signs a legal document using that name Good luck

please complete a timeline so we can know why she is filing 129 f since she is married

FYI K1 expires upon US entry

not a surprise but many here illegally work under the table without EAD so they don't pay into federal or state taxes and this is not a help to our system / i have no answers but surely there needs to be a better way

The EBE to automatically send SS cards to immigrants ended March 19, 2025

fast checking brings up this from Maryland Law Library / u must use the 5 year rule as not married to the K1 USC petitioner https://www.peoples-law.org/how-will-divorce-or-separation-affect-my-immigration-status Conditional residents have a 3 year residency requirement to earn U.S. citizenship as opposed to the standard 5 year residency requirement. To receive the shorter residency requirement, you must be able to prove that you were married in good faith to a U.S. citizen or permanent resident for at least 3 years. If you get divorced before then, you will have to wait 5 years to apply for U.S. citizenship. Hacking Law also says the same https://hackinglawpractice.com/what-happens-fiance-leaves-after-marriage-on-k1-visa/ removing Conditions Divorce doesn't affect your permanent residency if you already have the 10-year card. The only catch? For citizenship, you must now wait 5 years instead of the 3 years allowed when applying through a U.S. spouse.

you can submit 1 document or several showing you have researched the Marketplace insurance site/ it does not matter which policy you end up taking / just that you have looked and understand the premium and the deductibles for each one / BTW low monthly premium payments for one mean large yearly deductible and larger premiums mean lower (but still high) yearly deductibles If the USC is able to add u to his health care policy, its much better HR should be able to give the person a statement showing that after marriage in USA, the USC can add the wife (family) to work policy

you could go to Mexico and enter from there or fly in from there Any POE is good for processing the packet

it just means the USC should check his state for health insurance to be able to provide bene with one that he can afford OR show that he can add the bene to work place insurance plan. if the USC provides documents showing the search for a plan is made and income can support the cost, that is embassy needs Best to u both

Did not establish eligibility for the visa category being applied for or overcome the presumption of being an intending immigrant - INA section 214(b) https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/visa-denials.html Basically what we see is embasssy will deny if the person has no income, does not own property to tie the person to the home country. Having family there is not a strong tie as we all have family in our home country and have left also, ties to a USC friend or family here makes stronger ties to remain in the USA. I, myself, have family in Morocco that i support / my wife is there now to find a live- in care giver for mom and new apartment as mom is loosing eyesite and needs ground level or elevator . this being said many of us take care of parents while in the US so being mom's caregiver is not going to "cut the mustard" It actually works against u if u need to be in UK to care for her As far as supervisor review it means a supervisor will check documents and all notes made by the CO making sure the CO has doted all the i's and crossed all the t's / the review will not be to check to overcome the CO decision. it is to confirm the CO decision

Make an appointment at nearest SS office and apply for the card you can fill out the SS 5 from online You can apply online but this means sending all documents (originals) by mail to SS office (BTW I hated sending originals when i applied for my benefits) so taking them into the office, is i believe safer But Social security ended the "Enumeration beyond entry " in March 2025 meaning they no longer automatically issue SS cards with the EAD

I would attend interview since u say income is solid and getting a new interview (later on) is sometimes difficult. If interview is successful , she waits for suspension to be lifted. She shouldn't let the embassy keep her passport at this interview. she can provide it when they do issue the visa later On top of the need ,perhaps, for another medical exam, be prepared to update the I 864, with 2025 tax returns and W2 for the year as after the 15th of April , those will be needed https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/immigrant-visa-processing-updates-for-nationalities-at-high-risk-of-public-benefits-usage.html How long will the suspensions last? The proclamation provides no expiration date. It directs the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Attorney General, Secretary of Homeland Security, and Director for National Intelligence, to report to the President within 180 days, and every 180 days thereafter, whether the suspensions should be continued, terminated, modified, or supplemented.

It makes a difference which country is her banned country/ some are not full ban but require additional security checks So, if she does the medical and is good has finished all documents (this includes the medical) she will be good to go for he 2nd -real -pause interview Many have to do this /even though not a banned country and the AP for additional security checks does take time but when they are done , spouse may need a new medical So u know spouse's country , look up the ban information and decide Remember this ban is under many lawsuits and we don't know when it could lift or when it won't And here we can only give an opinion but i would do the medical as the embassy requires it to continue with the interview phase / otherwise get that over with

never send them original passport It is 6 months from the medical but she is pregnant and if in last 3 months of pregnancy she can not fly on most airlines that would mean flying to manila and doing the CBRA for the new baby and US passport the very very best to you and the family

when filing the I 130 for each parent , you would have put all names u use and have used your maiden name would have been one of these If u did this , no worries
