Claudine Gay's Resignation Letter Hilariously FAILS Plagiarism Checker and NO, We're Not Joking [...] everyone is joking about how Harvard President Claudine Gay likely plagiarized her resignation letter (although we made the joke first, dagnabbit!).

This is good reading with provocative questions. Do you predict that the SCOTUS will weasel out, or stand firm? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2024: All Eyes on SCOTUS [...] many Republicans turn a skeptical eye toward the court's involvement in 2024 election matters. How will justices who punted on dealing with flagrant election fraud in 2020 now confront unprecedented political issues central to the Biden regime's lust to put Trump behind bars before Election Day? Will the court again take the easy way out or find a spine at a time when the American people need it most? [...] https://www.declassified.live/p/2024-all-eyes-on-scotus

Before I got a blocker, there were some sites that I quit visiting altogether because of the overwhelming annoyance. Sites can support themselves as the owners choose, but it's at the risk of alienating visitors. Buy it, LL ma'am! Either the purchasers are deluded, or automated-placement programs erroneously associate family-based visas with dating, or something... Buy 3 of those advertised Lexi, LL ma'am!

You can document the lease/living arrangement with use of affidavits, as one method.

The cartels, whoever and wherever they may be, will get their cut.

I wonder whether there'll be any true surprises -- no one we'd ever expect.

Sounds enjoyable and sensible. There are too many idiots out there to go out and party.

1. Bidementia has let in 300,000 illegals during December alone. 2. They can join our military, gain expedited U.S. citizenship, serve in Ukraine, and then vote Democrat. The proposed idea will work!

Leftists, environmentalists, and liberals almost never seem to consider consequences of their grand plans for all of us.

Your immediate need would be to find anyone -- family member or someone -- who'd agree to cosponsor you. Another option is to wait until your girlfriend graduates from college, finds a job, and is earning enough to qualify financially in her own right.

What, you don't want to chat with 1000+ girls 24/7? Consider an ad-blocking program. AdGuard is excellent.

This would apply if you were married. The CR-1 (marriage visa, petitioned via the I-130) is superior to the K-1 (fiancé visa, petitioned via the I-129F). See the comparison, as compiled by our fine member Crazy Cat: K-1 More expensive than CR-1 Requires Adjustment of Status after marriage (expensive and requires a lot of paperwork) Spouse can not leave the US until she/he receives approved Advance Parole (approx 6-8 months) Spouse can not work until she/he receives EAD (approx 6-8 months) Some people have had problems with driver licenses, Social Security cards, leases, bank account during this period Spouse will not receive Green Card for many months after Adjustment of Status is filed. A K-1 might be a better choice when 18-21 year old children are immigrating also In some situations, marriage can affect certain Home country benefits, making a K-1 a better choice A denied K-1 is sent back to USCIS to expire CR-1 Less expensive than K-1 No Adjustment of Status (I-485, I-131, I-765) required. Spouse can immediately travel outside the US Spouse is authorized to work immediately upon arrival. Spouse receives Social Security Card and Green Card within 2 or 3 weeks after entering the US Opening a bank account, getting a driver's license, etc. are very easily accomplished with GC, SS card, and passport. Spouse has legal permanent Resident status IMMEDIATELY upon entry to US.

Congratulations -- what a relief for you. Thanks for returning with your update.

While you're waiting, consider contacting the Colombian consulate nearest you in the U.S. They should have suggestions.

It warms our hearts to hear you sounding positive. Very glad to hear it!

Welcome to the forum! She would need a cosponsor whose income would meet the requirements. Study the "Guides" (blue dropdown atop any VJ page).

Yes, this ^^. An accordion folder with several pockets is good, because you can organize documents in each section according to your preference.

And if too much of this is committed in the same pattern, it's going to point unwelcome attention toward legitimate cases.

I think that the next headline we see will be the above.

Chinese women are fed up with Xi Jinping's attempts to make them have more and more kids Chinese women are increasingly resisting Beijing's push for more children, put off by government harassment and the burdens of child-rearing, according to The Wall Street Journal.
