  1. we flew country to country (flying first to Paris with return trip from Paris) considered domestic flights with no customs and immigration / flights to switzerland , Spain and Italy we drove to Belgium and into geermany / no police checkpoints but with a visa to any of the Schengen countries, you wouldn't have to worry if there were checkpoints if u have a valid visa A Type D long-stay visa issued in France or by another Schengen country allows you to travel in the Schengen area for a maximum period of 90 days in any 180-day period during your visa's validity period subject to presenting supporting documents as to the purpose of your visit and your means of subsistence.
  2. 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. Stay safe all USC's and immigrants
  3. he can do executive order if there is a threat to our country https://constitution.congress.gov/browse/essay/artI-S8-C18-8-1/ALDE_00001255/#:~:text=Even so%2C the Supreme Court's,implicate matters of national security. 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.

  4. I waited to travel to UE when i was naturalized / it would be a few years for u but it makes traveling to UE so much easier and i used that waiting time to save so the trip was really fantastic why Shengen? why not apply for tourist visa to say France? once u r in 1 Shengen country, u r free to travel all /we fly to several on our trip from 1 to anther and no customs or passport checks
  5. its for all documents that support both the I 864 as u sent scanned copies they want now to see originals at least my embassy wanted them and to see original signatures and for the visa petition too DS 260 or DS 160 Please do a timeline
  6. they are on I 864 but not filing for a visa as they don't need one but they are part of the income needed to support an immigrant visa for the husband so, they are not being sponsored but are part of the income bracket numbers i even had to list 2 grown sons as children
  7. i would push the date ahead to enter getting a new interview appointment may have u waiting a long time or arrive, get stamp I 551 on visa and return to settle things there remember USC must arrive with u or ahead of your date (the 1st time)
  8. all children are listed on the I 864 even stepchildren or children not living with u Part 5. Sponsor’s Household Size Add together the number of persons for whom you are financially responsible. Some of these persons may not be residing with you. Make sure you do not count any individual more than once. In some cases, the same person could fit into two categories. For example, your spouse, whom you would enter in Item Number 3., might also be a lawful permanent resident for whom you have already sponsored using Form I-864 (Item Number 6.). If you included your spouse in Item Number 3., do not include him or her again in Item Number 6. Instruction for I 864 page 9 https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-864instr.pdf
  9. Marriage certificate DL from your state using your address for home address / students can drive on out of the state license and we use home address not our college address File tax returns as MFJ (using Texas address) If u pay any of her expenses like college books add those for additional proof and remember after marriage it will take a long time for AOS to complete, and you may be actually living together /just be sure the petitioner changes address (if the USC moves ) with USCIS form AR-11
  10. 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.
  11. if they are not married , the parents should apply ASAP as one of the points of immigration that Trump mentioned was stopping chain migration (1st term) Filing now would make the petition grandfathered in https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-7-part-c-chapter-2#:~:text=In all cases%2C USCIS bases,the beneficiary's immigrant visa registration.&text=Non-Frivolous-,An immigrant visa petition or permanent labor certification application is,is expected to be denied. In all cases, USCIS bases the determination of approvable when filed on the circumstances that existed at the time the immigrant visa petition or permanent labor certification application was filed. For example, a petition or application may still be considered “approvable when filed” even if the employer filing the petition or application later went out of business.[20]
  12. 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. Tax filer + spouse + tax dependents = household Follow these basic rules when including members of your household: Include your spouse if you’re legally married.
  13. you will have no issues Ivana Trump was from Czechoslovakia and Melania Trump from Yugoslavia
  14. no ! search from the search bar on the main page been reading on these since 2008 when i thought about doing a K1
  15. https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/content-series/future-of-dhs/this-years-bipartisan-immigration-bill-offers-a-border-blueprint-for-2025/ The one bipartisan immigration law (that did not pass in February 2024) about border security and immigration ,they may now work on as there will be a Republican Congress (both the Senate and House) Trump even stated he wanted a path to citizenship for those with F1 after graduation in US/ he didn't differentiate between F1 for college degree and HS graduation which begs the question how to do this and deport so many at the same time I see changes in some forms like the long DS 160 and ds 260 now asking additional security questions in lieu of the DS 5535 and the I 485 asking for assets and liabilities but forms change frequently as immigration sorts out situations that arise Congratulations on naturalization
  16. December 2, 2024 changed things https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-now-requires-report-of-immigration-medical-examination-and-vaccination-record-to-be-submitted#:~:text=Applicants for adjustment of status,under the health-related grounds. 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. So make of the site what u will
  17. If all petitioners joined VJ and all completed a timeline and kept it up to date , then the stats would be perfect but even those who join do not complete a timeline so impossible to give accurate account
  18. OMG my wait was from 2009 till 2015 and i know another who had a 7 year wait on top of "loves to teach" is married now 9 years and still waiting Prayers go out to u as trump is so against Mexico , he could add it to his list of blocked states
  19. if u force an interview before immigration officer has done their work , it can result in denial as approval (without the proper steps ) is hard for CO or US officer to take the responsibility on to approve it' Co's have to follow immigration rules and laws
  20. True, those do not affect N 400 Incoming President has nothing to do with your green card so u go thru the line for USC's and green card holders But the N 400 should have issues You must report your travel outside the US December 2023 u traveled and stayed because of financial issues in home country and now you are not working and income low enough for public benefits which is real low ( but can afford another trip) US tax returns must be submitted for N 400 Your tax returns are very important proof that you are eligible for naturalization. On the day of your interview, bring certified tax returns for the last 5 years https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/g-1151.pdf
  21. boarding passes work good' flight itinerary doesn't prove a person boarded the plane hotel receipts to show u were in the same country at same time or receipts from any places u visited together like concerts, museums For UE its not as big an issue as it would be from high fraud country
  22. no, this site is free / if u want immigration attorney, make a consultation appointment and check out some timelines on here. i applied 1st 2009 and finally got successful interview in 2015 but if u go to one to do a WOM , he /she will tell u its too early U r not past the timeframe of waiting for interview WOM are not always a success/ force a decision on immigration and it could be denial/ seen that happen from posts on here U r in queue like so many others /its stand in line and wait/ that is not rude its just what we all have to do wishing u success and a prayer for a good life here in US
  23. we are in the slowest times for all immigration things to happen 4 federal holidays between now and 17th of February meaning staff has 4 seperate weeks of 4 day work and many are using extra vacation time there's a good chance you'll receive notice to pick up visa before it's entered as issued into CEAC here's hoping u travel to US soon and your life here is everything u think it should be
  24. yes but the AOS now requires new medical per December 2 USCIS update https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-now-requires-report-of-immigration-medical-examination-and-vaccination-record-to-be-submitted 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. If you are required to submit Form I-693, or a partial Form I-693 (such as the Vaccination Record), you must submit it with your Form I-485. Otherwise, we may reject your Form I-485. We have revised the Form I-485 instructions to make filing the two forms together a requirement.
  25. The change happened this December He needs new medical https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-now-requires-report-of-immigration-medical-examination-and-vaccination-record-to-be-submitted 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. DO ASAP as he will be out of status till the receipt for AOS is received. understand the K1 is no longer valid as it does not cover him after POE
