  1. 99.9% sure that the land entry agent won't even know/notice that the card has been ordered. The documents you have are valid, travel safe! [In Canada right now, got a nice 30 cm of fresh snow yesterday!]
  2. I wouldn't submit 36 months of full statements, unless you think your relationship looks very suspicious. If you want to submit some in their entirety, I'd do oldest, than quarterly, and the last three to six months. You guys aren't even married, that type of evidence is usually not required. On another note, you can usually select the type of documents you want your scanner to create, and very large PDF files can be reasonably small in size. Might even be easier to downloads then directly from your financial institution than to scan them.
  3. Double check that your children have no path to citizenship, or their visas will be denied.
  4. We've always adjusted our deductions to get the smallest refund possible, same this year. You can find calculators and adjust yours. I wouldn't mind paying more taxes, I just wish they were used more efficiently.
  5. This is a double negative. What is written exactly? Could you post a picture, removing all identifying details?
  6. Similarly, this is something I would discuss with the fiancée, is SHE ok with you having a roommate? is she ok with having a roommate when she moves to you? Culturally, and personally, it can be totally acceptable, or a big absolutely not. Money is important, people [yourself, your fiancé, and the roommate] are more important.
  7. On another note, the immigrant is also much better protected with a spousal visa, and I am sure her family, and herself, will appreciate that. Best of luck!
  8. Worst they can do is actually mistakenly approve and realize later/at interview stage that you were not eligible to file; you will then lose more time, and money; the later they notice, the more detrimental it will be. Just withdraw the current I-130, and submit the new form as soon as possible, ideally before the fees increase.
  9. They do check the border entry/exit reports against the EI claims, so it is not that easy to abuse. Just checked for my state and you are allowed to visit Canada while receiving unemployment.
  10. I know the Canadian unemployment benefits allow it, in some cases - moving abroad to be with a spouse being one. We have a big thread about it
  11. Maybe the link is wrong? These two pages should cover most of it, then you will receive instructions prior to the interview about specific requirements for your location. https://www.uscis.gov/family/family-of-us-citizens/visas-for-fiancees-of-us-citizens https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/family-immigration/nonimmigrant-visa-for-a-fiance-k-1.html
  12. The flowchart and guides are only an overview of what needs to be done. You will still need to refer to the instructions for each form, and instruction from the interviewing consulate. For example, you can see that: "Where to File Where you submit Form I-134 depends on whether the beneficiary named on this form is inside or outside the United States and what type of application or petition this form is being submitted with. See the instructions provided with the corresponding application or petition for detailed information on where to submit this Declaration of Financial Support."
  13. Sorry, it is in the title: What to send to your fiancé.e Petitioner sends to beneficiary, they bring to the interview.
  14. Step 4, once the I-129F is approved (under What to send to your fiance once the I-129F is approved (Receive NOA2))
  15. See instructions here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Mexico.html
  16. Great news then! How long does it take to get a UK passport, not too long I hope?
  17. I think the immigrant also has to do their homework. Ultimately, it's their responsibility to keep their status and documents in order.
  18. With the extension letter, and the expired green card, why do you expect a need for a lawyer? Always good to be prepared though!
  19. Probably less expensive than redoing the whole process for 6 of them... Also, I might be mistaken, but I think some of their kids will be ageing out - if the consulate is not agreeable, they will have to be active and find their own solutions. They might even have a better plan already, who knows?
  20. Yes. I can think of a few ones. Easiest might be to leave the newborn with family for a day and do a round trip to the USA with the immigrants, if it comes to that.
  21. You'll also save a lot of money by filling before the fees increase.
  22. Marriage in the Philippines might be complicated, but the start-to-finish process for a spousal visa is easier, in my opinion. You might want to look at Utah Zoom Wedding, this might be the best solution for you two.
  23. Others will be able to provide more details on the waiver, but just be aware that you will add quite a few months to your separation.
