  3. SneakyPete started following Online filing for I-485 for K-1 based principal applicant
  4. SneakyPete
    It seems like USCIS added an option to file I-485 online at $50 discount ($1390 as of May 2026) for K-1 applicants. Has anyone tried that route yet?

    NVC will not communicate with out until they ship approved petition to USEm. If you want to hear from them sooner, you need to fill out public inquiry form at https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html The shipment notification will be e-mailed to e-mail address you specified at I-129F by the way. Typically NVC ships every 2 weeks. Next shipment will start tomorrow 5 May 2026. Good luck!

    Currently about 8-10 months, but past results do not guarantee future performance, AND individual cases are different, there are always outliers. In addition USCIS now started request biometrics from I-129F petitioners as part of deeper background checks and also shifting its operations from CA to TX. What effect it will have on future timelines is anyone's guess.

    They need information about petitioner (US Citizen) so they can pass it on to FBI and other background verification services. Form I-129F for the most part is entirely about petitioner.

    As far as I can tell they only potentially add new slots exactly at the top of the hour. Not every hour mind you. I believe Manila only does K-1s on Tuesdays btw.

    Curious, did your USCIS status changed to "Case was Sent to Department of STATE" or does it still show "case approved" TIA

    In general, cover letter is not something that is required by USCIS. It is main use is to be a checklist for the documents you included in the package to make sure you didn't forget anything. Don't overthink it. More important things to not forget are 2 letters of intent to get married and proof of face to face meeting in 2 years prior to filing.

    I-134 if you are at the Embassy step. I-864 if you are at AOS (I-485) step.
  19. SneakyPete
    While Manila EMBASSY doesn't usually ask for I-134, PH specific CFO process usually does. Without it, your partner might not be allowed to leave even if visa is issued.

    Donation was done on inauguration date for Pres Biden. Most people donate to get someone elected. It could've easily been lost bet. "Biden would never be President?" "Oh, you are so sure? Want to bet about it?" Yes this is speculation just like speculation about his motives for registering Republican.

    Regardless the political party affiliation of the shooter, I do find it interesting that so far there has been a radio silence on their actual motives, if they actually had any. Their social media footprint was minimal, most of it contained in Discord, and there was nothing particularly revealing from Discord either at least so far. I would not be entirely surprised if Trump was not even intended target, but instead it was someone local, or motivation was not political to begin with. Akin to Reagan's would be assassin.

    Guess he was just a bit envious of VP ####### Cheney who actually did shot someone. Speaking of "bulleyes" where does this fall?
  26. SneakyPete
    Domestic? A minute before that he was ranting about eliminating immigrants. When you kick a dog one too many times, it might bite back.

    Primary thing they want to see is IRS transcript for 2023.

    Aren't you past USCIS phase? They approved your case and it is NVC now. I would think if you have valid reasons to expedite you need to be contacting consulate at that point and have them request your case.
