Mailing it in allows additional info to be attached i had my mom''s bank statement and deed to apartment with the 2nd petition mailing is slower but it can be done

Totally agree My wife went to Moroc for my mom's 1st interview. and she saw a typewritten letter of denial (English on 1 side and Arabic on the other). it was dated the day before the interview. MIL needs to have strong ties to Egypt like a job she has to return to, own property , some say bank account but the trip can be paid for by the USC We had no children for her to visit or help with so no reason for CO to think she was coming to help us Like i said i was just LPR and saw no reason the CO would have thought she would stay in the US as we couldn't have filed AOS for her

CBP can still ask questions and turn her away if she mentions any type of work -paid or unpaid

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/family-immigration/nonimmigrant-visa-for-a-fiance-k-1.html#6 if you fail to bring the original or certified copy , the case will get 221g while they wait for one to be produced fiancee should also bring one to the US with English translation for your records

not the wrong impression at all / i totally understand just telling u how this is looked at by CO officer at interview seems a stupid rule to me as my wife will have shoulder replacement and her mom has passed i would love my mom here to help and my mom has 10 year tourist visa but we applied now 15 months ago for her to live here so we don't want to mess that up amytime a CO thinks the alien will be doing any work , then denial can be the decision it has happened to others with same issue

You are married so you can make sure u did IRS tax returns as married / best to have filed for ITIN with her as nonresident alien spouse you had to file as married in 2024 if married in the year or before it/ if u did taxes as single , correct it now by doing the 1040x you can make sure she has certified copy of your passport and US ID like DL to show you are live permantly in the US / it can takes months for mail to reach a person in Moroc make sure u do the 2025 taxes ASAP next spring / she will need them along with the I 864 for the interview

I don't even let my mom cook or wash a dish while she is here and as soon as she mentions ''coming to help with the new baby" its no visa it is considered work the same as what a housewife does that is considered work it is only A small fee to apply so nothing to loose and hopefully , she will get the visa good luck

not according to the high risk map /it ranks 51 on that site for corruption but that is in country not a immigration list https://risk-indexes.com/global-corruption-index there is not a list -per say - of the countries for immigration but several attorneys post a list and the list seems to differ from one office to another

She will face a denial for coming to help with her grandchild/ that requires a work visa Just to let u know my mom from Moroc was denied tourist visa when i was LPR she received the visa to visit after my naturalization Why? doesn't make sense as she could not have stayed and gone thru AOS while i was LPR but could after i became a citizen and a big Congratulations for the new baby-to-be

Take the notice you received that said transfere was approved

We all know this dilemma We all know the separation is hard We all know when you are successful , its worth it when you say met online and see her in October, have you met in person yet? for high fraud countries it is important to spend as much quality time as possible together and if marrying in October (1st visit ) can be a red flag not to discourage u , but if you do , add her to 2025 tax returns following the IRS site for alien spouse getting ITID number as that will help prove marriage is bona fide the best to u both!!!!

While you are able to preceed with divorce waiver, you have not yet been approved to green card to work so income is key Any good immigration officer is going to not only question your intent to fraud but who is sponsoring income to proceed

you plan to marry in nepal so you must file for spouse visa many a K1 is denied as CO says too married for K1 u r looking at just the timeframe to bring the bene here consider the expense and timeframe for AOS after a K1 against timeframe of green card for CR1

credit check is not done as part of the process so don't overthink this

just say getting citizenship opens up new possiblities like some jobs that are only open to USC's (even if you don't want to work) there are still many advantages and understand that after naturalization , we have to use the US passport to leave and enter the US

do not be alarmed if the case status shows nothing or does not allow you to enter that would mean its on the way to NVC After you receive the embassy code # , you can check case status on the following site (it is slightly better than USCIS) https://ceac.state.gov/ceacstattracker/status.aspx

follow the same instructions that you would submit if a birth certificate was not available If you sent a copy from Ghana , the paper size may be the issue / the paper size is slightly different than the US and when i went thru a lawyer for 1 visa , he copied the bene birth certificate and NVC didn't like it/they wanted to see the Moroccan one on their size paper otherwise look at following site and it should help https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-6-part-j-chapter-3#:~:text=If primary documentation of birth,petitioner's burden of proof by If primary documentation of birth is not available to the petitioner, USCIS may consider affidavits or secondary evidence of age, which may include baptismal certificates, school records, hospital records, or immunization records, in order to evaluate whether the petitioner has met the petitioner’s burden of proof by the preponderance of the evidence.

Marry there and petition the spouse visa / the 3 year for citizenship starts the day she enters If you do K1 to marry here , you must go thru the process for the green card and the 3 years for citizenship starts with the date on the green card that can be a long wait to AOS after marriage here marriage there you can file the I 130 online as soon as u have the marriage certificate / make sure u check the list of needed document and u have them all to file the petition (like copy of your birth certificate if u do it from Australia)

so sorry your trip was ruined airlines very often overbook and have passengers on stand by this can happen when the flights (often bought online ) say change of airlines and the ticket bought is in 2 parts a ticket to sf with check in at atlanta and another ticket from SF to Phillipines its actually 2 tickets not 1 happened to friends parents from Moroc as they were not allowed to board they thought changing planes (with US visa and its allowed) but the ticket from Moroc would take them to Paris only it was not just a layover they needed to check in and pick up new boarding pass to fly onto US gathering bags from the 1st plane and all they would have needed a french visa just be careful when booking

financial documents are only 1 part of the NVC process they need to have supporting documents for the ds 260 before you will hear DQ Please complete a timeline and use a flag to ID the country

when talking to the embassy, did you specify this was IR5 for immigrant visa? or did they think you were asking about tourist visa ? As far as i understand the process, NVC and embassy work together to schedule IR5 How did you reach a site to schedule? this is interesting if you are able to complete the process this way

USCIS , nvc AND Embassy do not send anything to the bene USCIS enters the info to computer and sends the entire packet you submitted plus their notes to NVC NVC sends this onto embassy when the embassy makes a request for the interview NVC will email the petitoner when that has happened and instruct them to send any needed documents like the I 134 for K1 to the bene and give instructions to schedule medical and interview

you ask specifically about Jamica and what u need to know is every US embassy has to follow the same rules so, go to the search bar in the right above and write in "past marijuana use" / you can read thru those with experience on the subject

it may not have come thru or is not readble on their end mark it with your case # (even though you go to your case to send it ) and resend to NVC they ask for it and u gotta do it or case will go no further

you are presently living and working (need legal work visa) in UAE and if NVC has DQ'd the petition, there is no explanation needed / they will schedule it in Abu Dhabi. you need to read on the Pakistan portal to see what others face by interviewing in Islambad or out of the country Loves to teach has a pakistan husband who 1st interviewed in Pakistan and was put in long AP and needed to work so he went on work visit to UAE and had 2nd interview there check her posts and others from your country /this is best source of info
