    I was referring to the other person but also in the OPs case, the petitioner moved. So they were apart and had different addresses.

    I don't think short trips like that would break marital union. Your residence is still your home address.

    I'm eager for my spouse to apply too. But we are going to wait. We have no time lived together before arriving on CR-1 so you're in a better position than us. But, is 90 days worth a potential denial?

    If you need a joint account, open one, but it won't matter much. I opened one with my wife when she only had a B1/B2. Many banks allow it without an SSN and you may even have an ITIN so it should be easier for you. I really prefer paper filing. It's just easier for me to print stuff out rather than format PDFs.

    I think you should follow the instructions. So yes, file the AR-11 better late than never.

    Lots of gen pop are building multi-gen houses now due to cost of child care and elder care. No longer weird.

    I'm sorry I misread the original. I thought it said the consultant thought there was a previous marriage that you were not aware of. As long as you have marriage certificate and divorce certificate from the previous marriage, it should be fine.

    It seems like this may actually be your biggest problem. What is up with that? But aren't you moving to Brazil? I think CR-1 is better but K-1 is faster now. If you want to get to the US asap, then K-1 is the choice.

    Followed the directions

    Both got approved in under 3 months. YMMV but it’s free and takes only like 30 minutes. Make sure you follow the directions. The I-129F asks for court records if you’ve had any arrests. If I remember correctly that’s the only thing not in the I130.

    My brother and I both filed both for our wives in 2021.

    Montreal is interviewing cases DQ'd in March currently. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/iv-wait-times.html Adjustment of status is the safer option if you absolutely cannot risk being outside the US for long. But, someone who already has an L visa is probably not going to face issues, especially since DOS has given you that visa relatively recently. You'll have to go for a medical and biometrics before the interview so you may have to visit Canada twice depending on scheduling. Also, can you get a Police Clearance Certificate from each country you've lived in? If not, Adjustment of Status may be your best bet.

    We had an interview for I-751. I've heard it's good to upload anything new stuff you intend to take to the interview so the officer doesn't need to scan it in. But, we didn't learn that in time and the officer didn't care... but you may want to.

    There's a button to upload unsolicited evidence. It was there when we did our I-130 too. But, I never used it. We included a good chunk of evidence with the initial filing and that was enough.

    Since you are in the US, then fill out that section. It is not asking where will you be in the future. But since you are here, and I assume both beneficiary and petitioner are here in US, then why not just do a quick court marriage and do an I-130? You're filing for a visa just to come back again and adjust status. I also filed an I-129F shortly after my then-fiancée visited me in the US and I eventually withdrew it and filed an I-130. I really wish I had done the I-130 right away.

    The test is called a titer. You will have to ask for it and pay out of pocket most likely. Many local health departments offer them. Some vaccines they'll excuse if you have clinical history like chicken pox. They'll take your word for it; no proof required. For titers, the juice is not worth the squeeze IMHO. Also, how can you be so sure your memory is accurate and you got everything you think you got?

    But isn't F25 visa for the child of an F24 or F29, which are unmarried sons or daughters of an LPR?
  18. JD2
    I'm assuming you mean the father was the beneficiary and they were a derivative?

    I know money may be an obstacle, but I heard this law firm specializes in these types of cases. https://tsangslaw.com/services/green-card/returning-permanent-resident/

    Sorry if this is a dumb question. What was the basis of your original GC? Did you come with your late father or your mother?
  21. JD2
    Maybe just the date you applied for the passport, did it get approved or denied, etc., if approved, what is the passport number
  22. JD2
    I believe you put the date they entered the US on their visa and the Port of Entry.

    USCIS.gov has 2 processing times published, a median (50%) and an 80%. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/historic-pt You can also look at the timelines here on Visa Journey. It will depend on his age (does "adult" mean over 18 but under 21 or over 21?) and if he is married.

    If y'all lived together continuously for 3 years at the time of filing (at least 3 months abroad + 2 years and 9 months in USA) then I would file early if I were you, assuming you have proof you lived together.
  25. JD2
    I don't think that's true. Then no one would be able to file early.
