  1. Do not complicate your life: As mailing addresses and car registrations were not changed, there is no need to add evidence to the contrary and possibly raise question marks. As for the continuous residency requirement, the evidence you have (deed to house, mortgage, taxes) is more than sufficient. If asked during the interview why both of you were absent, simply explain your attendance in the program and that you did maintain residency in the state - have evidence on hand to attest to that fact is asked.
  2. The immigration journey is complicated enough as it is - not sure why you (or anyone else for that matter) needs to add further complexity to the process. The point of a K-1 Visa is to marry once in the United States, not the other way around. One can only assume that you will potentially have scrutiny further down the line. Nevertheless, best of luck to you! A reminder for those about to embark on their immigration journey: 1) Do things by the book 2) KISS: Keep It Stupid Simple.
  3. Easiest option is to have someone Express Next-Day the item to you in Greece. If you are in Athens or large islands like Crete, any of the large carries like FedEx or DHL work, and it's no big deal. For smaller islands, you may have more difficulty receiving the item/experience a slight delay, as FedEx/DHL/UPS partners with local carriers for small island deliveries.
  4. A non-news item. Re-hashing policy thats been in place for years (although sidelined for some during COVID).
  5. If only Miami DMV’s were as efficient 🤣🥲
  6. Wanted to provide an update and our personal experience on the Global Entry process for February 2025, for my husband as a Conditional GC Holder. Thursday, February 20 (7:00pm) - Submitted Application Online Saturday, February 22 (6:00am) - Conditional Approval Monday, February 24 (8:00am) - Interview & Approval (Expiration March 2030) Was so surprised to see the Conditional Approval take less than 2 days, as we were expecting it to take 6-12 months based on some stories online.
  7. Received the “We’ve taken action on your case email,” however nothing has been updated online., Expect the information to be updated in 24 hours - hoping for positive results! 🙏🙏
  8. You can chat with a Live Agent Monday - Friday. If the status doesn’t change Monday morning, inquire directly with an agent who will update you.
  9. Should be available Monday. Otherwise you can use the Emma chat tool and an agent will give you the update.
  10. My cleaning lady, originally from Nicaragua, is also in deportation proceedings and received the same documentation when she crossed the border in January. She hired a lawyer, and is fighting it in court - had her first court date (out of three) on April 22nd. It is quite a drawn out process.
  11. This happened to a few of us last year: The embassy requires you to email a copy of the DS160 Confirmation Page which contains a barcode. Once they receive it and approve it, they will unlock the functionality for you to pay and schedule an appointment. You can either pay with credit card (which is what I did) or via local bank transfer. The CC payment was approved immediately, but bank transfers take 2-3 days. DM me if you have any other questions!
  12. Congrats Lara! did you ever receive a tracking number or just was delivered to you without prior information?
