No, Its not a guarantee and it has nothing to do with getting admitted... Its simply permission to the airline that they will not be liable and fined for boading a passenger without valid credentials in case they are not admitted after all. Just like any other passenger ... If the airline violates the rules,they will be fined otherwise. I have no idea what countries have this relationship and direct access to CBP's phone numbers ... but it has been done before in emergency situations where the passenger would not normally be allowed to board ..

There have been cases like this before, where the airline called CBP and got approval for the passenger to board ...

What country/passport are you from?

For comparison, my Wife's DS-3025 only had the TDAP and MMR vaccine by the panel physician. Plus the covid record. Everything else had the blanket waiver for everything else ... As far as I know, Pertussi is a required vaccine for the green card, and it is part of the TDAP which your form has totally blank including the waiver. Maybe someone else might have more info about this ...

It looks good except for the missing TDAP vaccine. It's weird he had the DT vaccine intead of TDAP. This means he is missing the Pertussi vaccine. The potential problem I see is that there is no blanket waiver for TDAP or Perrtussi. You might get an RFE to submit a waiver or to get the TDAP vaccine. Maybe you can go back and ask them if they forgot to record the TDAP vaccine or to give you waiver.

If you upload a redacted copy of the DS-3025, depending on what we see, we might be able to give you a better answer.

It is quite common for tourists coming to the USA to take a side trip, especially a road trip to Canada. The border agents see it all the time, and are used to it. Therefore, no, simply having a B2 stamp is in of itself inot a red flag. Its just part of her tourist itinerary which you just need to explain regardless. In fact, having the stamp is proof of her itinerary. Only issue would be if you are not really a tourist.

And by the way, there was a similar case posted in this forum by a couple with a similar plan as yours, except they wanted to re-marry religiously in the USA. But when they were not allowed to because their religious leader in USA said they were already legally married under their religious law. So they had to go get their original ceremony registered, and use that marriage certificate with USCS

Well you already passed the embassy, At this point, what matters is if the marriage is legally binding in India. If it is then, you are considered married in the USA. In that case, you would need to get divorced before getting re-married in the USA.

Are you saying that your religious marriage ceremony in India is not legally binding in India because you didn't register it? Doesn't in some cases India law treats it as legally binding to prevent abuse, even though it wasn't registered?

When you say "less invasive", are you referring to a lapraroscopic myomeectomy? If so, several other less expensive hospitals in manila offer them. If the tumor is really that large making her look 8 months pregnant, then if you do not mind sharing, what other advanced non-invasive procedure do you think is only available in USA? Will your expected health insurance give you access to them?

If the tumor is growing that fast and life threatening, then it sounds like you should start working on a plan B for your wife and yourself. India, Singapore, Thailand all have some fantastic medical tourism facilities where you get the most advanced and state of the art healtcare at a fraction of the price of USA ...

And what was the "info" they kept asking you fo again and again that you said you sent and uploaded? Do you have a copy of a redacted RFE?

Oh, also, will your job with your brother-in-law provide family medical insurance?

What is your Your annualized income and occupation? Your liquid cash assets Living situation. Do you own or rent, and what are the mortage,and rent payments Will your wife's e-business carry over to the USA and continue her income? If so, what will that income be? Or did it go bankrupt? Why can't you get a 2nd job to support your Wife and child? If you have such low income and assets to not to be able to meet the UCISC guidelines, it will be hard to survive. All of the above can factor into the visa officiers decision.

When he had his K-1 visa interview at the USA Embassy, did they ask him if he had any religious ceremony or any related questions? If so, what did he answer?

Years later when you actually have your interview for the ROC, don't you need to bring all evidence up to the current date anyways?

Note, please don't answer "no because I didn't have a SSN". Because you could have still filed, at least by paper, not to mention it would have saved your husband a lot of money in taxes.

Today is tax day. Didn't you file joint taxes together? Or did you file married filing separately?

You asked for thoughts ... So .. based on all the information you provided and especially what you didn't provide, I wish you good luck and really do hope you get approved, but there is a risk you will get denied, so be prepared for that. But either way, come back here and let us know what happens.

There are a long list of manipulative tactics that she could have been planning. It depends on how clever, stupid, desperate, or cruel, etc she is. For all you know, she is being manipulated herself through crazy gang or a crazy bf, and had a sick plan for you to die “accidentally” through a “heart attack” with antifreeze (lol, just saw that case on Dateline on tv) so she can get her gc and then sponsor her real bf and family. Or simple sexual manipulation for swaying the divorce judgement in her favor, pregnancy, etc The point is, why do you care or wonder so much why she wanted to come over. You knew it was for benefit and games to further take advantage of you, you need to simply report/email/documejt this and any other moves from her it to your lawyer and move on… . And your lawyer needs to order a deposition to either uncover her dirt for the divorce or get her to perjure herself so she can be held in contempt. and Therapist!!!

As others have said, you should cease all communications, and do all divorce negotiations through your attorney. To help prevent her from harming other USC, you can try to collect proof, and tell USCIS them about the bribe she offered you. Though with no proof, it may not help. But it won't hurt you. In fact, it can protect your USCIS reputation in that you are not selling a GC. Again, everything except withdrawing the I-130 won't help, but I don't think it will hurt to try. But it may be fruitless. If you have medical insurance, you should see a therapist ASAP to understand why you think you love despite knowing nothing about her for the most part, not to mention being abused and manipulated by her. Repeat, see a therapist ASAP, if for no other reasons to help deal with the divorce trauma and even bring your daughter. Even though you may be a therapist for others, you can't treat yourself.

The PSA wait time varies, somes it is faster, sometimes it is slower. I think right now it is on the slower side. If you can provide a letter from an agency saying the certificate is urgent, then you might be able to speed it up. If you try to use a "fixer", it might work, but you are more likely to be scammed. Yes, the whole point of the Utah online wedding is that you don't need to be local in Utah to get it done, or even local in USA. You can and your fiance can both be in Cebu and get it done. Or you can be in USA, and she can be in Cebu and get it done. You just need to meet in person after it is done. No, you can't get legally married while already married, even to the same spouse. So no, you can't marry twice. But you can have a 2nd religious ceromony.

Larry,. no matter where or how you get married, you will need the same CR-1 visa for spouse to immigrate to the USA if you have been married for less than 2 years. Its the same as a spousal visa The only point about the Utah wedding is that it allows you to file for the CR-1 visa sooner after you get married, because Utah will issue your marriage certificate immediately. In the Philippines you will need to wait 3-9 months. This will delay everything. If you are not in a rush, this is all a moot point. For the case you mentioned in Cebu where the guy had to jump through additional hoops to stay in the Philippines. That is probably because he needed a Philippines PSA marriage certificate, so he had to apply for a ROM then a PSA certificate. But if you don't plan to get a permanent residence visa in the Philipinnes then that doesn't apply to you. But even with only the foreign marriage certificate (Utah), you still qualify for 1-year Balikbayan visa when you return and enter the Philippines with your Wife.

Maybe if you get a letter from the Embassy saying you need the PSA urgently for a VISA, they might accelerate it. Because for a PSA birth certificate (for a previosly unregisterd birth), the PSA said the same thing, to get a letter from the Philippines passport agency to speed it up, but the DFA passport agency said they don't issue letters ... still waiting 5+ months ...
