self employment should have 1099(s) from places (or people ) you worked for and show schedule C To file your annual income tax return, you will need to use Schedule C (Form 1040), Profit or Loss from Business (Sole Proprietorship), to report any income or loss from a business you operated or profession you practiced as a sole proprietor, or gig work performed.Nov 13, 2024 You must report all income to the IRS. You may receive a 1099-K, 1099-NEC, or 1099-MISC reporting your income, but many self-employed people don't - it depends on how you make your money.

interview is scheduled by embassy and NVC so almost impossible to estimate a date for this If u create a VJ timeline on your profile , VJ members with experience at that embassy may help with estimating interview date Even if u are out of country for honeymoon, the notice will come by a good email ID and you'll have time to return and prepare. Good idea to take needed documents with u for the interview that your spouse will need proof of US residence like copy of DL with photo ID and state address the I 864 IRS statements submitted to NVC and any other documents listed for the USC needed for the interview taking these saves mailing them and wasting time

Court documents for who? was he deported ? then the visa would be revoked Poster the person should be the one on VJ to answer and clarify for best advise

since this is "a friend" we do not know if visa was revoked or just expired after returning home poster said "He was on a work visa in the U. S. a while back and after coming back to his home country, he quit that job so his visa was revoked for that reason" So, was he called to embassy to stamp visa revoked? as USCIS says Generally, USCIS will not automatically revoke a work visa simply because a non-immigrant worker returns to their home country after their authorized stay expires; however, if there is evidence of visa misuse, fraud, or other violations during their time in the US, USCIS could take action to revoke the visa, potentially preventing future re-entry. the "friend" would know if the visa was actually revoked and that person is not posting . So we don't have all info but what i said is still true he waits to see embassy decision petition can be sent back to US or he can be called back to explain in another interview and then decision made Medical they should have kept but other documents , our embassy never looked at them / they just note when a person brings them in or doesn't / you can have documents and CO doen't want to see them and then asks for a person to send them to embassy later.

Your friend will need to wait out the AP process there is no way to speed the AP but 1 thing that the embassy can do it require a new interview ( and medical if over 6 months) And they can also ask for passport to be sent to embassy if they have decided to approve hope the case is not returned to US with a NOIR or NOID If returned the USC has to answer all the objections the CO had with actual proof of the validity of the relationship from the USC the CO will not mention the age difference but that is the main reason a CO is concerned.

Immigration requires us to divulge everything about us that is so personal and for years we are told to keep personal information private What happened in April should alarm us all A data breach in April 2024 compromised the personal information of millions of Americans, including Social Security numbers, names, addresses, email addresses, and phone numbers I became aware that my SS info had been stolen when i received a letter from NJ office (in August) saying "thanks for creating an online account" i hadn't so i went to the local office to correct this . the SS officer told me she blocked the account as i provided her with my full ID But in September another NJ letter said, "We will be sending your SSA to your new bank . Another trip to SS office where i talked to a different SS officer who said she blocked the online account and corrected my banking info. I also sent a letter to NJ to cover by butt when your SS number is stolen, a person can use it to get a job, apply for credit, file a IRS return to get your refund and the SS officer #2 said i was lucky as the thief could have changed my address online and i would never have gotten the letters to warn me SS Office has a phamlett to help u understand how to protect yourself from this ID type of theft.

Long-standing Supreme Court precedent recognizes Congress as having plenary power over immigration, giving it almost complete authority to decide whether foreign nationals (aliens, under governing statutes and case law) may enter or remain in the United States.1 But while Congress’s power over immigration is well established, defining its constitutional underpinnings is more difficult. The Constitution does not mention immigration, but parts of the Constitution address related subjects. The Supreme Court has sometimes relied upon Congress’s powers over naturalization (the term and conditions in which an alien becomes a U.S. citizen),2 foreign commerce,3 and, to a lesser extent, upon the Executive Branch’s implied Article II foreign affairs power,4 as sources of federal immigration power.5 While these powers continue to be cited as supporting the immigration power, since the late nineteenth century, the Supreme Court has described the power as flowing from the Constitution’s establishment of a federal government.6 The United States government possesses all the powers incident to a sovereign, including unqualified authority over the Nation’s borders and the ability to determine whether foreign nationals may come within its territory.7 The Supreme Court has generally assigned the constitutional power to regulate immigration to Congress, with executive authority mainly derived from congressional delegations of authority.8Long-standing Supreme Court precedent recognizes Congress as having plenary power over immigration, giving it almost complete authority to decide whether foreign nationals (aliens, under governing statutes and case law) may enter or remain in the United States.1 But while Congress’s power over immigration is well established, defining its constitutional underpinnings is more difficult.

they have when the LPR has stayed way too long outside of the US https://www.help.cbp.gov/s/article/Article-1430?language=en_US If you intend to stay outside the United States for 1 year or more, you must apply for a re-entry permit with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) prior to leaving the United States. A re-entry permit allows a lawful permanent resident or conditional permanent resident to apply for admission to the United States upon returning from abroad during the permit’s validity without the need to obtain a returning resident visa from a U.S. Embassy or U.S. Consulate. Re-entry permits are generally valid for 2 years from the date of issuance. Therefore, if you are outside of the United States longer than the date the permit was issued, you may be denied entry into the United States.

this sentence Adjustment to lawful permanent resident (LPR/Green Card holder) status without an approved immigrant visa petition He came on an approved visa /i know that immigration seems to play games with saying it is nonimmigrant but listing it as immigrant in CEAC But it would appear they are excluding those who came illegally and are trying to adjust thru marriage to USC or other means it may be worth a consultation with an attorney Remember what the plan say as if u married in 2024 and FMJ , its a lot different for those married to illegal alien (trying to adjust) He is here legally came on a visa so its worth a fight with health care insurance provider / print out the CEAC page that makes u list K1 as immigrant Who to include in your household For the Health Insurance Marketplace®, a household usually includes the tax filer, their spouse if they have one, and their tax dependents.

Release Date 12/02/2024 We now require certain applicants filing Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status, to submit Form I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record, with their Form I-485 or the Form I-485 may otherwise be rejected. Applicants for adjustment of status generally must complete an immigration medical examination and all required vaccinations and submit a properly completed Form I-693 signed by a civil surgeon to show they are free from health conditions that would render them inadmissible under the health-related grounds. We have revised the Form I-485 instructions to make filing the two forms together a requirement. I know of one person who turned medical in October 2024 at POE and AOS was sent back for a whole I 693 to be done in the states by civil surgeon and their vaccination record was complete also.
