  1. prior to interview she has to take the medical in Casablanca and no, you don't have to stay there, you can fly in , do the medical and fly out and return for the interview as i stated above its just a matter of airfare and being able to schedule all as needed (weather dependent) make sure you have all the original NVC documents as Casa wants originals and if you have lived in the other country for over 6 months, criminal report from there i know u didn't ask for all this so sorry but i see too many go thru unneeded long AP as they don't know ahead of time no need to be rude here , by using caps to show anger. ok?
  2. I am sure u already know this but here goes the I 551 stamp on visa allows work while waiting for the actual green card make appointment with SS office and apply for the SS number as soon as possible you can print out the SS application form online to take to appointment (SS-5) spouse here in US should add the person to company health insurance and if possible with the immigrants new job, he/she should also take out the company plan as no insurance pays all expenses that being said prescription insurance is a plus as any medicines needed may be expensive insurances like dental and eye may be needed but you will know that and company health care benefits may cover some of all this so a trip or 2 to HR for explanations of benefits is always a plus
  3. OP if this is for the tourist visa you wanted for the world cup trip, then no If its for the spouse visa , you will need to wait till scheduled and then schedule the medical with 1 of the drs listed on Casa's portal prior to the intervew so, she needs to be in Casa for that medical and then for the interview . whether she stays during the medical and interview is up to u allah yessir
  4. ds 160 number? never heard any embassy using that for K1 NVC assigns embassy number like for Casablanca it's CSB followed by the year and then 6 more numbers the embassy code number is what u use to schedule K1 interview according to your embassy /country please fill out a timeline
  5. OP former post says you would apply for ESTA Did you? ESTA shows travel history and the I 94 for entry to US and if you listed visited fiancee on the appliction , it should say that (as your point US point of contact you should also have a history of airfare
  6. medicals expire 6 months from date they are done so yours should expire in July
  7. and how is the OP going to show strong ties to Italy if they have been living all these years in Jordan ? OP you need to establish strong ties to either country https://www.hio.harvard.edu/sites/default/files/HIOFiles/10 Points to Remember When Applying for a Student Visa _ NAFSA.pdf Harvard says Under U.S. law, people who apply for nonimmigrant visas, such as F-1 or J-1 student visas, are viewed as "intending immigrants" (who want to live permanently in the U.S.) until they can convince the consular officer that they are not. You must, therefore, be able to show that you have reasons for returning to your "residence abroad" (usually in your home country) that are stronger than reasons for remaining in the United States and that you intend to depart the United States at the conclusion of your studies. "Ties" to your home country are the things that connect you to your hometown, homeland, or current place of residence: job, family, owning a house or apartment, financial prospects that you own or will inherit, investments, etc. If you are a prospective student, the interviewing officer may ask about your specific plans or promise of future employment, family or other relationships, educational objectives, grades, long-range plans and career prospects in your home country
  8. At this point if u have already done DFC or are in the NVC phase, 2024 tax returns are needed 2025 are not needed until after 15th of April / right now only draft forms are available and IRS says not to use them or follow the instructions https://www.irs.gov/draft-tax-forms usually we have the formal forms by end of January (same as when employers have to send W2's) u need to file both of those and u can use foreign income exclusion by filing form 2555 with those taxes The maximum foreign earned income exclusion amounts are $130,000 for tax year 2025 and $126,500 for tax year 2024 your income on the AOS is 0 as u had no US income and a joint sponsor is needed the letter from iRS is form 4506-T from IRS https://www.irs.gov/individuals/transcript-types-for-individuals-and-ways-to-order-them some countries have recprocal tax treaties saying the following Under these same treaties, residents or citizens of the United States are taxed at a reduced rate, or are exempt from foreign taxes, on certain items of income they receive from sources within foreign countries. Most income tax treaties contain what is known as a "saving clause" which prevents a citizen or resident of the United States from using the provisions of a tax treaty in order to avoid taxation of U.S. source income. but you have not stated the country u live in so impossible for us to help there use the following tax treaty site https://www.irs.gov/businesses/international-businesses/united-states-income-tax-treaties-a-to-z and please fill out a timeline on your portal
  9. it is affected those who came from those countries as administration announced they will investigate all / even after they are here in US
  10. Never compare your case with another even if using same embassy your case is in the slow lane probable as u petitioned just before all the 2024 holidays BTW make sure your 2025 tax returns are done ASAP as your interview will obviously be later than 15th of April make sure your spouse is listed on those and 2024 since u were married not only for the bigger deduction but to have that as proof of bona fide marriage not known easily but at NVC stage spouse will need 2 reports for the criminal reports Casier Judiciaire from local police, and Extrait de la Fiche Anthropometrique
  11. then it isnn't yet posted as it was the holiday times keep checking and you will see it
  12. are you from one of the African countries that are under full ban Now? this would complicate the case and a divorce attorney may not as well informed on immigration issues and may not want to deal with this?
  13. https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-g-chapter-2 The applicant must establish validity of his or her marriage. In general, the legal validity of a marriage is determined by the law of the place where the marriage was celebrated (“place-of-celebration rule”). Under this rule, a marriage is valid for immigration purposes in cases where the marriage is valid under the law of the jurisdiction in which it is performed. without knowing your country of marriage and the state u live in now, its hard to answer questions but lawyers will assist u in a divorce unless why view the case as complicated (and they don't want t touch it) complications: wife filed complaint thru the police there are children of the marriage there is combined propertys to be settled
  14. since the embassy in Jordan did not think u have the needed ties to ensure u would return after the J1 u would need strong ties to Italy in your interview there to show u would return to Italy
  15. https://ceac.state.gov/ceacstattracker/status.aspx the above is the site to check u use immigrant / immigration uses immigrant on this site u will put in her embassy # / ds 160 is not needed here best to you both
  16. Country of birth? Where were u approved to study or for internship? is his a government sponsored exchange for students? If u interview in Italy, can u prove u will return after the program for 2 years ?qw
  17. All this is quite strange to me as Trump married 2 immigrants , himself Ivana from Czecholovkia and Melania born in Yugoslavia (now Slovenia) Melania then bought family here with "chain migration" which Trump is against and she holds dual citizenship with Slovenia also son Barron holds dual citzenship according to a biography of her by May Jordan
  18. When was the divorce? there is a requirement for those before July 1, 2025 https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/DominicanRepublic.html Comments: As of July 1, 2025, certificates of birth, recognition, marriage, divorce, and death have been unified into a single format, eliminating the "extract" and "inextensa" distinctions for these documents. However, for immigrant and K visa applications, the U.S. Embassy in Santo Domingo still requires the “Acta Inextensa” for older versions of these documents issued before July 1, 2025, as it provides more comprehensive information. Applicants may also submit civil documents issued after July 1, 2025, which no longer include "Inextensa" or "Extract" labels. Legalization of Dominican civil documents is not required for visa purposes.
  19. Has the case been returned to the USA ? as Legalnet says they (U) LegalNet will not provide a substantive response to the categories of inquiries listed below. Instead, LegalNet may provide a standard form response, listing communication channels potentially available for such inquiries. (6) (U) Matters relating to visa cases that have already been returned to a USCIS Service Center; https://fam.state.gov/fam/09FAM/09FAM010304.html otherwise your inquiry will go straight to Legal Advisor for Consular Affairs (L/CA) (U) Inquiries regarding INA 212(a) ineligibilities (other than security-related grounds) will be forwarded to L/CA;
  20. https://canada-eta.visasyst.com/application?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=23008698427&utm_term=canada eta visasyst&utm_content=773329359960&utm_adgroup=189096561310&utm_network=g&utm_device=c&utm_devicemodel=&utm_matchtype=e&utm_loc_physical_ms=1015254&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23008698427&gbraid=0AAAAA_n-HagaIPT6DE9icZIMkVreGW19O&gclid=Cj0KCQiA9t3KBhCQARIsAJOcR7ykPaOq7GH5K-9lSXEAoyOwRy3VHCOQb7RtFs3piAJbVtnMmRF7ATsaAsLwEALw_wcB apply now online / only $7 just to be ready
  21. keep checking with inquiry to NVC for your New (embassy/country) ID ANK for Ankara for the Turkey embassy NVC does not process the K1 visa / it only assigns the case # you will then fill out the ds 160 and follow the ankara rules for paying the fee, collecting needed documents and scheduling the interview BTW when i look up Turkey US K1 visa , it says fill out ds 260 and that is not correct / it will be ds 160 260 is for spouse visa It appears USCIS has not (this is only my guess) the case as you said the USCIS site still shows it / you should not be able to see a status on that site when the case has left the USCIS office (as they no longer have access to your packet and the info)
  22. Search VJ in the search box (i found 1 case) by writing legalnet understand that none of us know the embassy or the circumstances and u need an expert for legal advice
  23. closed 12/25 and 1 /1 /2026 so this could take awhile on top of the embassy giving priority interviews to FIFA ticket holders for the world cup making the embassy quite busy u can try contacting the embassy and tell them u need to fly out in 10 days and the 2 year old has to have a parent on flight OR your wife (who got green card IR1 a year ago) needs to fly with him if visa is not ready by your flight out she should be in Moroc for this/ if she's not already, she may need to fly over
  24. Make the appointment and get it ASAP need the SS # to get DL or state ID not always necessary for the following but it helps it helps when trying to add or open bank account it helps when adding or getting health care insurance to rent apartment or auto or add to one of these to start compiling credit information you can download the form SS 5 from SS site and fill it out prior to appointment if u check this site by going to search and posting SS card , u will see many a post from those who waited to long and couldn;t be added to a lease, or had issues with the bank, etc BTW USCIS no longer applys for us
  25. A better definition according to USCIS https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-f-chapter-5 Crime involving moral turpitude” (CIMT) is a term used in the immigration context that has no statutory definition. Extensive case law, however, has provided sufficient guidance on whether an offense rises to the level of a CIMT. The courts have held that moral turpitude “refers generally to conduct that shocks the public conscience as being inherently base, vile, or depraved, contrary to the rules of morality and the duties owed between man and man, either one’s fellow man or society in general.”[3] Whether an offense is a CIMT is largely based on whether the offense involves willful conduct that is morally reprehensible and intrinsically wrong, the essence of which is a reckless, evil or malicious intent. The Attorney General has decreed that a finding of “moral turpitude” requires that the perpetrator committed a reprehensible act with some form of guilty knowledge.[4] The officer should consider the nature of the offense in determining whether it is a CIMT.[5] In many cases, the CIMT determination depends on whether the relevant state statute includes one of the elements that involves moral turpitude. For example, an offense or crime may be a CIMT in one state, but a similarly named crime in another state may not be a CIMT because of differences in the definition of the crime or offense. The officer may rely on local USCIS counsel in cases where there is a question about whether a particular offense is a CIMT.
