  1. You're making this way too complicated 1. Your wife needs to get pregnant - you may be lucky and it happens in the first go or it may take longer 2. The baby born in Canada = sooo many benefits - Canada + US (through you since you're a US citizen parent) dual citizenship - Part of the commonwealth - cheaper education, ability to study in Canada/aus/uk, travel freely 3. Pregnancy - many many appointments - Initially - once every 3-4 weeks + many blood tests - 3rd trimester - once every 2 weeks and then once a week imo it's a disservice to both the mom and child if the child is born in the US. I think you're looking at it rather selfishly. Once the child is born, you'll probably qualify for paternity leave. You can go spend time with the child + mom for an x amount of time. It's better than separating the mom and child
  2. We brought a copy of the photos we submitted with original app (although officer told us it wasn't needed since she had that info already) and then 4-5 photos from that point until AOS. In our case, our officer cared more about our wedding picture than anything else. Those were the ones that were saved with our file. Of course we brought electricity, internet, insurance bills, etc, but photos were the heavy weight. Definitely bring photos since you have no clue what your officer is interested in. FYI we got a senior officer who was notorious for rejecting apps
  3. Hi! I remember we filed around the same time for K1. I recall your fiance/husband is from Russia. I hope all is well with the current news...

  4. If he's coming to Wisconsin: US purchase: 1. Parka 2. Warm boots/snow boots 3. Warm clothing 4. I would say to just switch to a US based phone number. Maybe add another line to yours 5. I agree, find the local worship place 6. Nearest Indian restaurant 7. Netflix - good enough imo. Sling/willow is a good way to get cricket 8. Cuddles hehe India purchases: 1. Spices - harder to find specific or rare ones in midwestern states 2. Some home cooked sweets 3. All important docs 4. Traditional indian clothes - always useful in the US LOL 5. Any specialized pots/pans he needs for cooking food 6. India charger - but will need a convertor
  5. The k3 is a dead visa. I've heard that others apply for a i129 k3 once they get the 130 approval, it causes something to speed up. Not sure of the details, you will have to use the search button to try to find this solution
  6. It really depends on your embassy. In India, they have been asking most people for 3 years

    PCC at interview

    See if you can reach out for the PCC again and tell them it's urgent. I think the worst that can happen is the 221 g, but something to avoid after all this time
  8. Depends on the office. I'm not familiar with the 539, but for the 485, many people did not get their biometrics status updated until the background checks were completed. Even then, some didn't see an update
  9. Not an issue, you can just explain it in the interview. It would have required more work if the non-US citizen changed their name
  10. You don't need to bring a copy, but for your records, you can make a copy of your bank record that shows the fee was paid
  11. They will move the app to your local CA processing center. CA is notoriously slow, unless you have LA
  12. Would you be able to practice in the US with you degree? There's a limit to when your application is valid. If it expires, it can be difficult to get approval again
  13. All of us over the past 2 years haha Don't worry about it, as long as you've been actively taking action on it and the interview is scheduled, you're good to go. Just print out the email that said it's autoextended for your records
  14. The copy would be for you, not to turn it in! You would just use a scanner and keep it for your records
  15. Just remember that the emergency visa is only for 30 days and he will have to submit proof of relationship to his father and his father's medical history to try to get it. As a bit of a warning, someone traveled to India with the emergency visa, caught covid, and didn't return back in time. The wife is now stuck in India. I hope his father gets better really soon. This is such a tough time...
