    "we applied for the permanent " - which form did you file? do you have a copy of what you submitted?
  2. Lemonslice
    @Zumbadaddy : depending on where you live, what was filed/documents she has in hand, you might be able to pick her up at a Canadian airport and cross at a land border. If you are further from the border, the boarding foil might be more economical (in time, and in money).

    If you're getting married, you might as well get married legally and enjoy the benefits of the spousal visa. If you absolutely want an American Court wedding, do an online Utah marriage and then the religious ceremony and party there. Getting married, but not really married, is not going to bring you any positives. It will be much more expensive, and longer, to refile for a spousal visa after the fiancé visa is denied for already being married... Just get married.

    It tells you exactly what will happen: "Photo will be taken at ASC".

    Reminder that the name/s on her airlines ticket will have to match the name/s in her passport/s.
  6. Lemonslice
    Yes, I did. The documents required will depend on the bank. Since you posted your question in the Canada forum, and if you are still in Canada, you might also look into opening a USD account while in Canada, from an institution with American ranches (Desjardins, RBC - can't say for sure about TD, they were useless back when I moved). Can be useful to transfer funds more easily, open line of credit, etc.

    Why wouldn't they believe her? They can take her biometrics again and confirm she is who she says she is... That being said, if you search the forums, you will find many people who have had to request a boarding foil. Good to be prepared, but even better not to lose the card.

    It means someone is looking at your file. Could be because it needs further processing, could be because end is near, no one can guess. Also, please do not type in all caps, no need to shout at people volunteering to help.

    As asked by @Boiler, what was the worst you could have served? It matters.

    When will your spouse become a citizen?
  11. Lemonslice
    Just refile as soon as possible. Make sure he gets the proper vaccinations this time He shouldn't travel until he has AP in hand.
  12. Lemonslice
    How long do you want to be separated? Traveling without his Advance Parole, he will not be able to travel back to the US.
  13. Lemonslice
    Yes, before filing, you need to consummate the marriage [being in the same physical location after the marriage, nothing else is required].
  14. Lemonslice
    Exactly. Some states/counties might have a waiting period between the marriage licence and the marriage itself, but it's usually only a few days. Someone with good organization skills, and faith/luck in escaping delayed flights, could plan something on the day of arrival.
  15. Lemonslice
    You could do something like @devusr did and meet somewhere closer to the USA, in a third country where you do not need a visa/get visa upon arrival [do your research on that].

    Start by checking the reciprocity schedule to make sure she has the right version of each document: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/India.html
  17. Lemonslice
    Most probably not, and she has some rights as a permanent resident. Make sure to declare all items you're bringing back.
  18. Lemonslice
    You can check up border wait times on the CBSA website. She seems to have the correct documents. Border agents verify the documents, but also ask other questions/evaluate other factors before making their decision; no one here can assure you that there will be no problem entering Canada, but most US Permanent residents entry to Canada is uneventful. If you have further questions, you can call CBSA directly, they answer calls and are super helpful. https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/ Bon voyage!

    Have you thought about moving to him, or a third country, were he could continue to use what works for him? Chronic pain is no fun
  20. Lemonslice
    The bolded part is what you need to do.

    In some countries, it's impossible to change the name in your passport to your married name. Not sure about Malaysia though. OP might want to analyze if it's worth the hassle of having mismatched documents, or if it's easier to keep her documents in her name.
  22. Lemonslice
    In most states, a longer marriage might mean alimony being granted for a longer duration too. Please tell your friend that he needs to check in with lawyers before making big decisions (marriage, separation, divorce, USCIS applications, tax avoidance, whatever else is happening in his life); he does not seem to understand how the law of the land works.
  23. Lemonslice
    Might even be able to find availability closer. Next county, next large city, find a friend who gets registered as a celebrant...
  24. Lemonslice
    Your profile shows K1, which forms are you currently filing?
  25. Lemonslice
    This thread discussed a similar issue. @jan22's answers are worth your attention.
