page 1 of the USCIS statement In the footnotes of the January 2026 white house statement , it says This refers to aliens with a nationality, country of birth Hold and Review of USCIS Benefit Applications Filed by Aliens from Additional High-Risk Countries it is not a complete ban as it also says A “hold” allows a case to proceed through processing, up to final adjudication. A “final adjudication” refers to the issuance of a final decision on a case, such as an approval, denial, or dismissal. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/policy-alerts/PM-602-0194-PendingApplicationsAdditionalHighRiskCountries-20260101.pdf so, i would proceed with the petition and the embassy will complete security checks front load all your evidence of the relationship and prepare for interview follow the guides for each country if time spent there, needs criminal report (for the interview) best to you both

The poster years back was Moroccan and married to US woman in Massachusetts / went to moroc and married another , had a baby and was petitioning for child for a visa

https://www.uscis.gov/forms/all-forms/questions-and-answers-appeals-and-motions you can find answers on that site and yes, people file a WOM to sue for a decision on a petition it doesn't mean the decision is in favor of the person filing it your answers are with your lawyer and how much u want to pay we can not help u here ' time to close this post

we have read a few cases with a member married to USC in prison / questions were asked about the proceedure but i don't think either of the 2 i read let us know the outcome and the offenses (as told to VJ ) were not 1st degree felony / the offenses were misdismeaners it is hard to say if this can be overcome as his criminal background can not be excused by immigration. and a convicted felon is the biggest issue when the site says USC sponsor may not be able to attend and they excuse it , its often because the USC is military and deployed and the wife has stayed in the US to do the AOS Its quite different when a USC is in prison and that is not a judgement call on my part but rules the immigration officer has to go by and is always under the guidance of a supervisor . Again, I repeat, they have a job to protect the immigrant as well My CO walked away during my interview and checked with a supervisor / later i found out it was my wife had signed marriage certificate in name she used from deceased husband and the judge who did the certificate wrote it out in her maiden name as was on her birth certificate ( women in my country do not change the last name when married) . it was checked to be legal as she had listed all names on petition What i am saying is "the officer had to check on rules he/'she must follow" and did and is at her/his discretion when they see all the evidence to not allow what you wanted /any good immigration attorney knows this but you paid out good money for lawyer so let him/ her do their work

it may be so but that would mean he has a 15 year sentence making his felony more severe (from the Utah site i posted ) 1st degree felony

case-by-case basis when deciding whether to waive the U.S. citizen spouse petitioner’s appearance." the officer has complete authority (and checked with supervisor) can not go on social media now but how did u meet ? How did u talk to him from Australia? BTW there are at least 2 other VJ members here that went thru this process for a jailed inmate/ u can search that in the above search box and send a message to either of the 2 i remember to find out how they made out / just post USC is in prison , how do i AOS and u will see posts / they do go back quite a while but the posts are there

new roof done in april and they were all "probably" the above and couldn't mow my yard this summer as i needed shoulder replacement and the crew was all guataemalan but green cards??? who knows as even employers are not allowed to ask to see it / that is one rule that needs to change if employers are going to employ honest workers

Several things are important here i don't need an answer but u should know (if u already didn't) that to serve 6+ years in Utah, it's a 2nd degree felony U may have been denied because of his criminal background (and don't expect a lawyer to overcome that) Immigration also has the duty to protect immigrant I know falling in love and desire to be with the right one is high on the list so i wish the very best to u and pray things will work out for u but read the following to understand the immigration officer https://www.utcourts.gov/en/self-help/case-categories/criminal-justice/penalties.html If u met before he was incarecarated and lived with him, prove this to immigration' did USCIS officer ask who is supporting u as he can't since your AOS is not complete or did u get the EAD card who is paying the lawyer who are u living with now Utah system has strict very strict visitation rules and visits are time limited, how do u show quality time with husband/ this is expected for all of us https://corrections.utah.gov/family-and-friends/visitation-information/ and the state does not allow for conjugal visits https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/conjugal-visit-laws-by-state His social media and who he talks to and was he still searching for mates (other than u ) before u married claiming to love them all What u need to understand is immigration has access to more info than u and they do not have to share what they learn in and they do not have to share all with u at an interview /it is also their job to protect the immigrant

Certain forms will require a new photo, regardless of when an applicant’s or petitioner’s last photograph was taken. These include Form I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card; Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status; Form N-400, Application for Naturalization; and Form N-600, Application for Certificate of Citizenship. that is from December 2025 USCIS site https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/new-photo-policy-helps-prevent-immigration-fraud-through-enhanced-identity-verification and , of course, if they are going to take your photo for N400 at the biometrics, they will take fingerprints to prove your ID

the best are the IRS trancripts created documents that reflect your 1040 / send all pages iRS has even if they are blank

This is a question for your attorney he should know the immigration laws and current policies that affect you

Totally agree the tax transcripts will be looked at prior to appointment if you send them now waiting till you have interview and the officer hasn't seen them , means they will put case in AP till the officer has time to go over your documents / they are not given enough time to look at these during interview I sent mine in with N 400 /interviewed on a Friday/ approved Saturday

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/visa-denials.html If a consular officer finds you are not eligible to receive a visa under U.S. law, your visa application will be denied (refused), and you will be provided a reason for the denial. There are many reasons a visa applicant could be found ineligible for a visa. These reasons, called ineligibilities, are listed in the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and other immigration laws. Some ineligibilities can be overcome, either by you, the visa applicant, or the U.S. petitioner, in certain immigrant visa cases. Other ineligibilities are permanent. This means that every time you apply for a visa, you will be found ineligible under the same section of law, unless a waiver of that ineligibility is authorized by the Department of Homeland Security. Learn about waivers of ineligibility. she has not overcome the reasons for denial apartment is owned by USC husband job can be left behind child in school and the child can enter school here in the US Her ties to the US with US husband helping to support (apartment and family) make her ties to US stronger Do the CBRA for the kids if you haven't and petition for your spouse / you can stay as your are now while waiting for the I 130 you certainly have strong ties to show a bona fida marriage Best to you and your family

you will need proof that you are accepted for this training course and are on the schedule for it and any fees have been paid

submitting the IRS transcripts (which would be MFJ or MFS) is a good way to help prove marriage to USC at this time you only need last 3 years which is 2024, 2023, 2022 as 2025 is not due till after the 15th of April at interview be prepared to show last 3 years which will be 2025, 2024 and 2023 no problem filing online and filing now if qualified by green card PD

did u become a USC before or after the child's birth?

Moroc is on the list of 75 countries to be banned / news media exposing this and the list but i still have to see white house statement or DOS or Federal Registry to see exactly what this means for all of u and i am so sorry you will go thru this hopefully the courts will sort this out congrts to Morocco for yesterday's win. Nigeria is so strong and fast so it was hard fought /love that goal keeper

Get the airline ticket and enter the USA ASAP personal message sent best to you both

if this is me - i would inquiry everyday till i had an answer there's probably a rule about this but at this point i doubt even immigration officers know the rules as they change weekly

My Maytag died (10 year warranty) died after 4 years / repairman said to buy new but Adil fixed it with $11 part that was right under the agititor. Been in this house since 2004 and are just replacing items now but i pull all out from the hall once a month and clean dust . every 3rd month i take the back off and vacuum all the dust from around motors , Refigerator lasted 21 years , stove 22 / disher died first at 18 years and i totally agree with fridge ice makers-they aren't worth it /my son bought a table top model as he uses the most ice. i hope my new applicance last as long as long as i do

If you are USC and this is your child, why not do the CRBA?

If your income is at or below 150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines, do not file a request for a reduced fee. You may file a fee waiver request. See Form I-912, Request for Fee Waiver. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-fees/additional-information-on-filing-a-reduced-fee-request

not sure if it's getting interesting or just plain scary but jD Vance and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz are a world apart on immigration https://forumtogether.org/article/jd-vance-and-tim-walz-on-key-immigration-policy-areas/#:~:text=Vance has expressed his support,aim of wide-spread deportations.&text=Walz has ardently opposed mass,%2C public healthcare%2C and insurance.

so, you have the new KMP xxxxxxxxxxx mumber for Uganda embassy fiancee can fill out the ds 160 anytime now and keep the confirmation page as that is needed to take to medical exam and interview What you need to wait for is scheduling the medical exam till a few weeks before the interview as the medical expires in 6 months and is the date of the visa if approved how interview is scheduled varies embassy to embassy so refer to the email you will receive for a better understanding you should get email telling you how to pay the fee -that varies from embassy to embassy meanwhile you may not have interview till after 15th of April so fill out tax returns ASAP you could need 2024 if interview is prior to april tax date so get iRS transcript of those
