    Doxie got a reaction from Sparkle Sparkle in K1 applicants waiting for interview at us consulate Frankfurt (FRA)   
    That sounds great. She had all the paper work and Covid test but she was only asked the Covid test at the airport. We were anxious but to my surprise everything went really well.

    Doxie reacted to Aaab in Lets help clear/fix all the mixed answers regarding the K visas and the EO   
    Thank you for taking the time to write all of that and stating your opinions. You assume you know who youre speaking to and who it is that wrote this post based on what you see, that's fine. Let me put it clear that not once have I asked any US Citizen to contact their representatives on my behalf.  This post was for others that are currently in the K1 process under this whole situation with the EO, bans and embassy closure to come together in a way and ask for clarity on the K visas. Apparently not taken good by some.
     
    I am aware this is a public forum but apparently asking for kindness is where the line is drawn. I am grateful for veteran members as they help many of us in times of need however  even though they are entitled to do it why be condescending or rude? He in specific, did not go through what we are going through right now and that is why I said.  "This issue does not affect you personally so you wouldn't know or understand exactly what we are going through. Be a little more sympathetic." Empathy, kindness and humbleness doesn't hurt.
     
    Best regards, Be blessed and Have a nice day.

    Some real saltiness out here about a petition... Just sign it and move on with your life. No one’s post is going to change anything but a simple signature might do a lot. Some people need a chill pill.

    Doxie reacted to carmel34 in Cr1 Visa Denial letter. what to do next ??   
    The best thing to do right now is have a long, serious conversation with your wife.  It's time to be completely open, honest, and sincere with each other about the future of your relationship and how you can move forward in a positive way after receiving the denial letter.  If you really are in love with each other and want to be together, you'll find a way.  You're not getting your US visa anytime soon, and maybe never unless things change significantly.  You really have three options as I see it based on your post history:
     
    1.  You get a job in Jamaica that pays well, keep at it for a year or more, to show that you have some ability to work continuously in a stable job that has potential for a successful career in the US.  Your wife gets a better job or a second job to increase her income, keep at it for a year or more to show that her income is higher than it is now, and more stable.  Submit evidence of this increase in income with a new I-864 a year or two from now and hope for approval.
     
    2.  She moves to Jamaica to live with you there and you both work and make a life together and be happy.  This may be the best option since she is a home care provider so she could take care of your father while you work and earn income to support everyone.
     
    3.  You end the relationship and move on.
     
    Good luck!

    Doxie reacted to Villanelle in Divorce in peace   
    @Dantrolene As you can see you are getting conflicting advice/answers here. That is mostly because divorce is very state specific and most people will respond based on their own experiences or experiences of those close to them. 
     
    Technically custody and support amounts CAN be changed. However it is not guaranteed to be changed and to make changes (unless both agree) will require going back to court and going through a long and potentially costly process to change in some cases. 
     
    Also every state uses variations in terms when it comes to custody. There can be joint, shared, as well as sole and legal/physical. They all mean different things. Physical is where the child will actual be. Legal is who gets to decide things for the child in regards to medical and stuff. Sole means only one parent and joint means both. So you can have joint legal custody but she can have sole physical custody and you have visitation. Thats different then shared physical custody where you would shuffle the child between you both. 
     
    Again with a huge distance between states it is unlikely you will get physical custody split between you. You will probably get visitation until you move back into their state, where you could then apply to modify the custody to a more equal time division. 
     
    If you had to go to court for being charged with a crime you would definitely get an attny! So you definitely want an attny to go to court for custody issues. It can be DIY but it is not recommended esp if the other side is using an attny. You are not equipped to respond to what the attny throws out in legal arguments so you will lose. You also have to remember in custody and divorce each side is allowed to ask for ANYTHING they want. Just because something is asked for does not mean you have to agree to it. If both parties cant come to an agreement the judge will decide based on the facts presented. Again this is where an attny would be able to present your side with legal backing supporting it. If she also earns significantly more then you and you are at min wage and shes 6 figures you can also ask the court to have her pay your legal fees. Speak to an attny about this as well.
     
    Divorce needs to be filed based on where you live. Some places require anywhere from 3-6 months residency before you file, others can be up to 1 year residency. So if you do not file before you move, she may file after you move or you would have to wait until you have residency in the new state to file there. You will want to check the divorce laws between the two states to see if one is better then the other however you cant stop her from filing in her state before you file in your new state. Custody would default to the state she is in with the child regardless if you leave or not as thats the childs home. 
     
    While I understand all the comments about you reconsidering your job path/moving I think its important to keep the big picture in mind. Yes for the next 3 years you will have limited involvement in the childs daily life but it would be to ensure a better future for yourself and your child once the schooling is complete. Doing such will not be viewed negatively by a court, since its being done to better yourself. If you were moving to be with a girlfriend then yeah thats pretty lousy and will look neglectful, but thats not the case here. Ideally it would be great if you could find a similar opportunity near where the child is but sometimes thats just not possible. 
     
    Keep in mind you cant write anything into the custody about whatever is issued being temporary. It will be written as if it is permanent and then you will have to go back and modify it when things change. It wont be written that for 3 years its like this and then you get to come back although you can make your intentions known now.
