Amazing and wonderful men do not abuse others. He might have some qualities, but he's not a good man. He already made you lose years of your life. Take back your life. Build it back, one step at a time, to your happy place. You survived him, you are strong (even if it doesn't feel like it today) and will be able to do great things. Is there a good friend or family member who could be there for you now?

Where's that source?

This does not make sense. Anyway, no point in discussing hypotheticals. Not too expensive to apply and see what happens.

This person was abusive to you. You recognize that you are not good at protecting yourself. Here is what I would tell my little sister, or my best friend: Please RUN away from him. A fiancé visa would have put you in a very dependent situation where an abuser is going to abuse you. He has already shown you who he is, believe him. ---- Take the time to heal. You will find someone respectful, loving, and nice to you. A few good reads: https://www.thehotline.org/identify-abuse/ Why does he do that? (pdf)

How far along are you that the doctors are sure you will need a C-section? Even an expedite might not be fast enough... https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=489865

France will mail his certificate to his current (US) address. Was even free last time I did it, fast too. He might want to register with his local French diplomatic mission. They can assist with that.

I have no way of answering that. Listen to your attorney.

Also, it's not compulsory to become a citizen. If one chooses that path, then I feel they should make the efforts to show it's important to them. Otherwise, there's nothing wrong with keeping their LPR (and keeping those documents current), or delaying the citizenship process until they have time to care.

Depending on his profession, yup. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/employment/visas-canadian-mexican-usmca-professional-workers.html

Those are a (very) rare occurrence. You might want to search the forum for the latest experience/timeline.

1. Make sure their names are on the mailbox. 2. If not received Monday pm, reach out to your local postmaster. https://faq.usps.com/s/article/Requirements-for-City-Delivery-Mail-Receptacles

Get a lawyer. Make sure she knows her right and memorize some phone numbers in case she gets detained. https://miracoalition.org/news/know-your-rights/

If you're currently in the US, and have no obligation back home, you could marry and adjust status. Otherwise, you could marry and file for a spousal visa. K1, fiancé visa, would be my last choice. @Crazy Cat has a good list of pros and cons.

Read the reciprocity schedule again.

Look up the reciprocity schedule. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Malaysia.html If you need further assistance, reach out to the closest Diplomatic mission for Malaysia. Which passport to you intend to use to immigrate?

You need to update the passport before the interview/visa being issued. Other options: - Requesting a new card in a different name after arrival by filing a i-90. That's a few hundred extra $$ - Requesting card in married name during removal of conditions (if applicable), in about 2 years. - Changing name when becoming a US citizen.

May you find humour when you, or your loved ones, get sick. My aunt recently died of cancer - from "nothing" (she had a scan for another reason), to final/incurable in 3 months. Cancer is a weird beast - [big bad words not allowed on VJ] cancer.

Similarly, OP might want to look at Sonder, Airbnb, or search for "corporate housing" or "short term lease" + city/area location. I've done it multiple times for work, they usually take credit cards, so the credit check wouldn't matter.

Which visa did your husband use to enter the USA? IR1? If so, he is allowed to work. He will probably need to visit the SSA office to get his SSN card though. I am sure this is a huge change in your lives, but it has only been 3 weeks... you might want want to discuss why you decided to move to the US and see if the benefits are still there. You do not need to stay, or stay forever, but you might want to try a bit longer to get over the initial adjustment period. Many libraries/YMCA/Community centers have programs for new comers: English discussion groups, play groups, story time... you can see what is available in your community. Best of luck!

Instead of telling them you have EAD/AP, ask them for a list of acceptable supporting documents for your evisa application. For example, here is the list of acceptable documents for Canada. https://www.ircc.canada.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=1053&top=16 Türkiye evisa application is pretty clear about what is needed. To me, an employment authorization (to work) and advance parole (to return to the USA) is very different than a "residence permit". However, they might tell you differently when you ask them for a list of documents. "You must meet all the requirements listed below in order to obtain an e-Visa. Please confirm that you meet these criteria by clicking the boxes next to them. If you do not meet any of these requirements and you proceed with your application, your e-Visa will be invalid. - My passport covers the period that I will be staying in Türkiye. - I can prove that I hold a return ticket, hotel reservation and at least 50 $ per each day of my stay. - I am travelling for the purposes of tourism or business. - I have a valid Supporting Document (Valid visa OR valid residence permit from one of the Schengen Countries, USA, UK or Ireland). E-visas are not accepted as supporting documents." Source: https://evisa.gov.tr/en/prerequisites/

Some states allow you to pick (any) name you want after marriage. Where are you planning to get married? You can look up the laws for that state. Are you planning to take your spouse's name, or another name entirely? Also, please fill in your profile and timeline.

Not a problem, as long as the passport is valid for at least six months at the time of the visa issuance.

Her visa and green card will be in her passport (maiden) name. I was in a similar situation, and simply kept my maiden name. It was SO much easier. All my documents match. No headache, no further action required. Other ways to update her PR card: - file an i-90 to get a replacement in her married name - at removal of conditions - when/if she becomes a US citizen Anything before citizenship is, in my opinion, a useless hassle. Having to travel with a marriage certificate to justify the name discrepancy between documents, blah...
