Britain has downgraded its forecasts for the takeup of electric cars over the next seven years as higher financing costs and rising energy prices threaten to cut the incentive for drivers to replace combustion engines. The latest forecast from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), released alongside the chancellor’s autumn statement, said that just 38% of new vehicles sold in the UK in 2027 would be electric, down from the 67% it predicted in March. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/nov/22/uk-slashes-predicted-takeup-electric-cars-half-energy-prices 38% seems optomistic.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/22/finland-to-close-all-but-one-russia-crossing-point-to-stop-asylum-seekers Finland has said it will close all but one crossing point on its border with Russia in an effort to halt a flow of asylum seekers to the Nordic nation, as Estonia accused Moscow of mounting “a hybrid attack operation” on Europe’s eastern border. The announcement on Wednesday came after weeks of tension on the 830-mile (1,330km) border across which Helsinki accuses Moscow of guiding refugees and migrants in an apparent act of revenge for the Nordic nation’s cooperation with the US. From midnight on Friday, said the Finnish prime minister, Petteri Orpo, the only open border crossing of Finland’s eight stations would be its northernmost at Raja-Jooseppi.

2028 seems optimistic.

This is a good guy. Usually Lawyers charge a flat fee for the process. https://www.us-visa.co.uk/

You are showing F2a but you are currently F2b, maybe F1 in the future.

The I 130 got approved and it is a bit random how long they take. It does not really matter, as long as they are approved before your PD is current.

You can petition her and see in 18 months what the situation is and if she wants to move.

She can go back on the next plane but there is no such thing as a maintenance visit. Is she Ukrainian, does she qualify for U4U. IR5 is going to take say 18 months.

They take about 2 years

"Lydia Gribbin, 28, appeared in court on Friday November 3 alongside four other activists charged with aggravated trespass - a charge that she denies alongside Hannah Taylor, 23; Hanan Ameur, 22; Noah Crane, 18; and Poppy Bliss, 19. Gribbin, however, sparked a particularly strong reaction from district Judge Michael Snow at Westminster Magistrate's Court after asking if the trial could be held at the end of February - so she could travel to India unimpeded." https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/judge-slams-just-stop-oil-activist-after-she-asked-for-delay-in-trial-so-she-could-jet-off-to-india-as-protester-28-is-charged-alongside-four-others-for-storming-west-end-performance-of-les-miserables/ar-AA1jmnu6

I do have any strong views on the subject, I can see that it is cleaner to file a fresh case.

It is now, in 2040 whenever who knows

Yes it is and Pakistan is currently in the fastest category

You need to refill with a divorce waiver, did not the Lawyer mention this!

I am going to guess a 10 year GC but maybe not, are you removing conditions?

I am going to guess not, but I am assuming a situation that may not be correct.

People who filed nearly 9 years ago are now getting to the front of the line. You have yet to file. There is no way of being precise as to what the wait time will be looking forward, too many variables some of which can only be guessed at, I tend to double and round down the past time which seems to be there or thereabouts. Just a guide. https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/news-releases/uscis-establishes-family-reunification-parole-process-for-ecuador This was announced recently. Thank you for updating the thread about the weird Canadian situation.

There is footage out there, not that I would post it here. And IDF did have a showing for sceptical journos.

There is security camera footage of hostages been dragged in, was not one murdered in there?

This starts with the police actually doing their job unusually, and then we go to a spokesman for Just Stop Oil. Now you would think they would choose someone who is a bit less obviously crazy and yet this is the best they could do for national TV which make you wonder what the rest are like. I have said it before it has become a religion so you are either a true believer or need to be sent to the stocks.

Mention VJ, think that was sometime this weekend.

There are plenty of 80 ish year olds who can operate in their own comfort zone, very few who could take the pressure of a President position, someone I know still ski's at that age but..... And Biden had difficulty cycling never mid skiing.

How long people being interviewed now is not that helpful as there are a lot more people waiting now than back when they filed. Lets say it becomes current in 2040 very difficult to see the 18 year old making it, possibly the 12 year old if it takes a long time to process the I 130. Biden has been rolling out Parole to those waiting, some think it will become world wide, who knows but if you are not in it then you can not play. I am intrigued by the Canadian situation, I know the basics about Canada but not enough to speculate what they did.

The 6 month clock starts ticking with the medical.

Or one of them dies Or leaves the US Plenty of cases where an immigrant never works, from an actuarial perspective there are several triggers. but the potential downside is not insignificant.
