    VJ is a better source of information compared to AI. The tricky part is, Google now includes summary generated by AI related to search at the top of page. Many people think it's a search result, but it's a statement from AI which may not be accurate. It would be cool though to create a custom language model based on upvoted replies in VJ threads.

    Do you have pending I-751?
  3. OldUser
    Agreed, vaccinations may be covered by insurance, but exam itself - not really.

    4-8 weeks is normal wait time. When did you sent it?
  5. OldUser
    Live around 100 years, lose card every 10 years 😃

    These are accepted docs in Illinois: https://www.ilsos.gov/publications/pdf_publications/dsd_x173.pdf So need GC or EAD card. May use valid I-94, but that's typically for people on work visas the way I understand it.
  7. OldUser
    Typically you can get state ID / DL when you get a EAD. Did you file form I-765 with your AOS packet? But it depends on state laws.

    Allowed Come to the US on ESTA => Get married => Leave on time => Go through CR-1 visa process Not allowed Come to the US on ESTA => Get married => Stay in the US and try adjusting status to get GC Remarks Now, if CBP learns fiance is about to get married in the US, they may not let person in as the may not believe they'll leave on time. Also, fiance should give truthful answers to any questions by CBP. If caught on lying (misrepresentation) this will have complications in any future immigration process.

    Nobody can tell for sure. CBP has discretion to let or not let visitors into the US. Chances of getting denied entry increase if they learn you're married to US citizen.

    Yes the fees are $715 + $300 Are you in valid immigration status right now?
  11. OldUser
    This is an important question @Sixt
  12. OldUser
    Are you in lawful status now? Check fees here: https://www.uscis.gov/g-1055 AFAIK you needed to pay $715 + $300 (self-petitioner)

    It's a good idea to get vaccinations and complete DS-3025 exam fully before entering the US on K-1. Getting missing vaccinations and completing I-693 exam is typically a lot more expensive in the US than finishing everything overseas.

    Yep. Is asylum approved?
  15. OldUser
    Perhaps they're looking for a joint sponsor info?
  16. OldUser
    True, though I do prefer using a neutral third party which doesn't have a conflict of interest and has all necessary templates to do it in the format that's known and accepted by USCIS.

    No need to include I-485

    Glad it worked for you. There's other side of the coin. Officers are humans. Not all officers like kids. From a lawyer, I heard about combo interview becoming a stokes interview because kids were brought to the interview. One parent ordered to stay outside with kids, while the other parent interviewed. Then parents swap and answers compared.

    Normal. You're misreading MyProgress. It says it's a current step. But it's not checked, meaning it's not yet done, e.g. interview isn't yet scheduled. Again, refer to my prior message about MyProgress:

    There's never downside to providing as much relevant evidence as possible. At the same time, you cannot provide what you don't have. What you have seem sufficient for an overseas case.
  21. OldUser
    I-485 isn't OP's petition and cannot be withdrawn by OP. I-130 and I-864 can be withdrawn by OP. This will cause I-485, I-131, I-765 closed due to underlying case withdrawn.

    I've seen people on VJ reporting USCIS issuing RFE for not providing translation even if one of languages was English. I guess it depends on luck and risk tolerance. I'd translate even that. Technically, English translation on multi language certificates doesn't have certification statement, so I guess technically this can be a cause to issue RFE asking for translation
  23. OldUser
    Not sure about kids, unless they're removing conditions too?
  24. OldUser
    Online agents tell random information all the time. They need to "help" as many people per hour as they can.

    Do you file taxes jointly with mother? I don't see how you would. So if you want her income considered, you'd need her to be a joint sponsor. Do you have good enough income to sponsor? If yes, don't bother.
