All of what you're doing is great, the one missing component in my opinion is developing your social circle. Friends stateside are important for personal wellbeing and marital health. Get to making friends while engaging in your community, whether it's volunteering or joining activity groups. Making adult friends in the US has a host of unique challenges depending on where you live. Make it your goal to conquer them.

That's 3 in the last two days. Things may seem slow today on paper, but I refuse to be discouraged. Patience is key, we are getting so close!

Can I get a source on this OldUser? Our legal counsel and several users on here affirmed that no employment was permitted while residing on US soil without EAD and/or GC. As such J froze his employment for two months, from POE to EAD. We don't want to raise suspicions that he was falsely claiming during the interview, when we went out of our way to suspend his work per the law.

A terrible story. If rumors be true, the stepfather married his mom and sponsored them both... they were from Moldova originally. Bout as "Wisconsin teen" as "Maryland father", in my opinion.

Young people as well, it's contagious. The years of TDS exposure from my mother on my nephews have finally taken their toll. One lost his job last week because he was caught posting online making a call for violence against the orange man--this is a person who still cannot identify the vice president or how long Supreme Court justices serve. The other says he despises how awful his life has become. He is 21 years old, works full time at a job he's had for 2+ years and is moving in with his girlfriend of a year. He has a car, and the unending emotional and financial support of his family. When I pointed this out to my mother, she offhandedly said "well he meant in general". Abhorrent.

What, no poutine??!! Suppose the real deal is hard to get down here Congratulations to you!

Not necessarily. I've seen plenty of cases with RFEs advance faster because they have an agent's eye on them already. You might be kept on the desk through RFER whereas many of us are still in the pile waiting to be picked up. Hard to say, it's purely based on a general observation but it's what I've noticed. I just wouldn't assume it takes longer with an RFE--can sometimes be quite the opposite!

Today's stats: April 19, 2025 10:45am CDT (+4, life got busy. Let's see what happened this week!)

Scheduling is surging forward, averaging in excess of 200 interviews scheduled a day. Also a considerable uptick in RFE. Definitely a week for cleaning house. Let's hope this means even more scheduled interviews very soon! Currently, the % of cases for October that are either approved or with interviews scheduled, is one third (33%).

Healthcare coverage HIPAA release Prenup As many bills you can have assigned in your name to the residence as possible. Many utility companies allow for co-tenants to be added without SSNs needed. Have your husband update his accounts. Print everything out.

We did the same, so they had both petitioner and beneficiary emails. The NVC only retains the petitioner email; when they send the information to the embassy, it's advised to have the beneficiary's email applied beforehand so they can contact him/her directly with the packet/s. We worded ours like this: Your Question(s): We are requesting the case number as assigned by the NVC to proceed with the DS-160. Additionally, we would like to update the information on file to include both petitioner and beneficiary email addresses, for ease of contact with the embassy in Johannesburg. Please see below: Petitioner: <my full name> DOB: <mine> Email:<mine> Beneficiary: <his full name> DOB: <his> Email: <his> We sent this at four weeks, and got a reply the next day with the case number. As Mallory mentioned, the timeline is a bit slower these days. I would start messaging at four weeks though, and continue to follow up every week until given the case#.

Finally. I hope he gets a first class ticket right back to a cell Bukele's prepared for him.

How do you plan on entering the country? Land crossings you'll want to apply for an I-94 before you depart (https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/home). If you're flying in, an I-94 is automatically generated when you meet with CBP. An I-94 is your registration.

I know you're a bit rattled right now, but any chance you can fill in your timeline? It allows us at a glance to review your situation, and helps other who might encounter the same situation.

They were renamed cobra chickens in my vernacular ages ago lol

People are raising questions about a possible self-defense claim but I'm sorry, a kid died and lots of lives ruined in this, including Anthony. The angle I imagine a lot of these donors have is that their interpretation is innocence all the while new information is coming out, and a trial hasn't been set yet. This is just another way to sideline due process. Laws should be in place to ensure fundraising for legal defense funds is the only legal way of funneling money to defendants. It is inappropriate in so many ways for a family, who I feel are culpable in the crimes of minor, to receive supportive funds. Not the first time GoFundMe has been a filter for unethical acts, of course.

Bottom line: don't be nervous. Just organize your documentation and trust that you are here legitimately. You got married and are living your best life! Stay humble, appreciative, and honest in the interview. So happy for you, it's incredibly good luck that you got the interview so fast! Please come back and share how it went to the rest of us still waiting <3

100% agree, most of the wait for us was actually in dealing with Home Affairs (yikes, IYKYK). I would hope that the new refugee status actually won't disrupt the efficiency of Joberg too much. Compared to other places in Africa like Lagos, South African processing has historically been a dream. Fingers crossed that remains true for a while.

Are we to 100 days yet I'm a fan of roller coasters but this is the wildest one I've ever been on lmaooo
