No I do not have a time set. Just got worried that if I got denied entry again I'd get a ban. Sorry.

Hey, sorry to bother you again! I'm afraid that if I do try again, despite me not having a set time to go back.. if I got denied again that it might lead to a 5 year ban. Would this be possible?

Could a one-month overstay in the past affect my eligibility for a K-1 visa during the interview? I'm concerned that it might lead to a denial. Thanks! 😊

Thought about doing a CR-1, but I'm not too informed on it. How lonng does it take?

Background: Canadian citizen Granted a 6-month stay in the U.S. Overstayed by 1 month and 3 weeks Received a Withdrawal of Application by an immigration officer without case number or court orders. I'm a Canadian citizen who was granted a 6-month stay in the U.S. Unfortunately, I overstayed by 1 month and 3 weeks. In september of 2023, I received a Withdrawal of Application by an immigration officer, who assured me that there wouldn't be any consequences later on and treated it more as a verbal warning. They advised me to return once I had stronger ties to Canada and a return ticket in hand. I'm currently in the process of a K1 visa application and am concerned about potential implications during the future K1 interview. I'm uncertain about the timeline for a safe return to the U.S and I'm aware that there is no specific timeframe set for when I can go back. My plan is to return to the U.S. for a short visit of 2 weeks to celebrate holidays with FIL and celebrate our engagement since we haven't been able to yet. I will have a return ticket, and will be able to show strong ties to Canada (employment, housing, bank statements, etc). I appreciate any guidance or information you can share.

Alright! Thanks. Might've overthought this a little too much.. haha.. 😅

I am currently in the process of applying for a K-1 visa, and originally, my fiancé's father was planning to be our joint sponsor. However, due to health issues, he is now unable to work and will undergo heart surgery. Despite this, he does have sufficient income to meet the financial requirements. Does he need to show employment to be able to co-sponsor? Thanks.

Hi, I was looking into old posts to see if anyone had the same wait till NOA1, and I found your post. Out of curiosity, how long did it take you to get your NOA1? I'm still waiting on mine, it's been 3 weeks..

I meant that, after sending the petition via mail, when will I receive a notice for my NOA1? I have not yet gotten the NOA1. Sorry for the confusion.

Filed for my i-129f petition on the 10th of October, and they received it on the 11th. I also filed for e-notifications. How long does it take till we get notified for NOA1? Super anxious! Thanks!

Thank you for the feedback. I have an appointment with an immigration lawyer this wednesday. We'll see what they say. Thank you for letting me know!

My fiancé (petitioner) would normally earn approximately $40,000 annually, but due to a disability, his actual earnings are lower. His father earns $136,000 yearly as a trucker and also works at his dealership that he co-owns with his brother. He would act as a joint sponsor to meet the financial requirements. The primary concern is that my fiancé (petitioner) faces challenges in performing effectively at his job due to his disability, impacting his income and ability to fulfill the financial obligations to support me later on. Furthermore, my fiancé's disability affects his daily functioning. With my absence and lack of a "support" system, he struggles to execute simple tasks, maintain a consistent sleep schedule, exercise self-control, manage time effectively, engage in social interactions, etc. I have a deep understanding of his unique needs and challenges, allowing me to help him navigate daily life. Whether it's structuring his day, helping him manage sensory stimuli, manageable routines and improved social interactions. I am the only person in his life who has been able to help him function properly, truly understand him, and love him unconditionally, apart from his mother. However, given his mother's health condition, she is unfortunately no longer able to provide the support and care he needs. And no, he has been to top health care professionals, and nothing has helped except for me. Even his current doctor says it's a miracle since I've been in his life. Also sorry if I sounded defensive, I really wasn't trying to. Lol

We could apply for a joint sponsor, as his dad works full time and makes money off the company he owns with his brother.

Thank you so much for this advice

My 20-year-old fiancé (peitioner) has autism and works in a family-owned business where his uncle and dad are co-owners. He recently took on the role of a sales manager assistant to financially support us once our I-129F is approved. Despite going to work, he struggles to function effectively due to his autism, leading to irregular sleep patterns, uncontrollable bursts of energy, and difficulty to socialize, etc. These challenges can potentially cause financial problems down the line. Throughout his life, his mother has been his primary caregiver. However, her health conditions, including RA, immune disease, and cancer, now limit her ability to care for him. His father, occupied with a full-time job elsewhere, also cannot provide the needed care. His siblings are unwilling to assist. During my visits, I assumed the role of caretaker, witnessing a positive change in his motivation, sleep schedule, work, and overall functioning. Sadly, our long-distance relationship prevents my constant presence, given my full-time job to secure resources for his support upon my arrival. He possesses prior records confirming his disability, obtaining a note from his mother affirming his need for caregiving is feasible, and an employment letter stating his challenges at work highlighting potential future financial loss. I deeply love him and am committed to caring for him regardless of the circumstances, as I believe that's a fundamental aspect of marriage—supporting each other through all stages of life. Do the factors mentioned above justify an expedite request for our I-129f?
