That it does, in spades, si ma'am. Been there, done that, si and sigh ma'am. Violent physical exercise helps, si ma'am.

Time heals all wounds, and time wounds all heels. This too shall pass. Hugs to you.

Thread is shifted from the US Citizenship main forum to the Case Progress subforum.

It's always a thrill to read success stories... and, for you, it's surely satisfying to fill in that final block in your VJ timeline.

I'd interpret it literally. Waiting is hard, but be as patient as possible and distract yourself when it's toughest. Violent physical exercise helps.

Scintillating Tuesday repartee, yawn man. ----- Thrilling Tuesday report, see man: Breakfasted*/skoolbused Mini-B., groggy Two Guys man. *Mini-B. had indigestion and ingested only part, sigh man Breakfast for us was the 2 chicken melts that Mini-B. left, ingest we man.

Found Popeye's, no Subway man. Went to bank** and Post Office, erranding we man. **where they recognized us for the filthy-rich POTS*** magnate that we are, Business Typhoon we man. ***buy yours today, $i man!

You're welcome! There should be a simple "release" form to complete, giving their office permission to intercede on your behalf. Maybe find it on their website first and have it ready to go.

Be sure to return here and let us know how you've proceeded, and the results.

E-mail the consulate with her name & A# in the Subject line, concisely tell them what you've told us, and ask for a brief acknowledgment plus any alternative instructions.

If anyone else has anything else to add, they will do so here. Don't start a new thread.

Yee-HAAAAA!

That does sound hopeful, but be aware that things have tightened up in ways that are still evolving. I really would try to speak with a supervisor at a CBP port.

Good luck. Try to consult more than one lawyer. You might even want to phone a CBP port (not the one through which you'd be traveling), ask for the shift supervisor, and say, "Hypothetically, what if someone in this situation..." (present "your" case).

Thrilling Monday report, see man: Did not leave the casa again today, wonderful man. Zero precipitation and lighter winds, cold but tolerable man. Mini-B. dragged carcass downstairs for breakfast/lunch at nearly half-past 1 p.m., slothful wee man. We gave him the choice of eating din-din for lunch and something lighter for din-din, flexible we man. Accordingly, breakfast/lunch was 2 Marie Callender beef pot pies + r'br, ingest Two Guys man. Got an almost-full-length siesta, mostly zzz we man. Mini-B. wanted popcorn for din-din, That's Our Boy man. Movie night was The Thursday Murder Club, excellent and watch Two Guys man.

Each purchased item is unrelated to the next purchased item, see and si and mam ma'am. Bad insouciant mam ma'am! Bad, BAD insouciant INSOUCIANT mam ma'am! There's enough drawer/shelf/garage space for storage, si and see Y ma'am. The risk is buying multiples of what we already have 1, 2, or even Many of, si and sigh Y ma'am. Almost everything that we buy is small and consumable, si and see Y ma'am. And sometimes we upgrade by using new purchases to replace incumbent items, bath towels e.g. man.

Welcome to the forum! Others here may differ, be more specific, or both. 1) Almost certainly, if I recall other such instances on VJ (few, and remote). 2) Don't know. If you risk traveling, carry the original letter of release from the State Attorney with you. 3) No idea, but have the letter with you.

Sorry to hear this. Contact your U.S. Congressman's office (D.C. office) and consult with the Immigration Liaison staff member. Let us know what results.

TDS is real and deadly.

Worth reading for perspective. Recent events are discussed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Don't Believe Media Lies – Americans Want Immigration Enforcement Amid President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration – delivering on one of voters' top concerns in 2024 – elected Democrats and the corporate "news" media have attempted to portray the administration's enforcement efforts as chaotic, brutal, and unpopular. But the sensationalist headlines intentionally misrepresent that immigration enforcement remains popular among the American people, even as a dishonest press invents one hoax after another to smear and defame Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. A year ago, an AP/NORC poll found the following: [...] https://amac.us/newsline/national-security/dont-believe-media-lies-americans-want-immigration-enforcement/

How wonderful! Thanks for returning with your gladdening update.

You're welcome, and be sure not only to let us know here, but also to update that thread.

Welcome to the forum! Gentle-but-important correction: You were going to file the I-129F petition. Applying for the K-1 visa occurs after petition approval. This is excellent advice.
