  1. Yep you could get it expedited if it took longer than 90 days, few did.
  2. She was born in the US and one thing I did not see is what Passport she has, or did she naturalise in Canada. I always thought she was Canadian.
  3. It just shows how quick the process could be. If they want to.
  4. Mine took less than 90 days......
  5. The home of a consultant with ties to the New York city mayor, Eric Adams, was raided by the FBI on Thursday. Brianna Suggs, Adams’s top campaign fundraiser, was questioned by the FBI’s public corruption squad as they searched her house in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, the New York Times reported. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/nov/02/fbi-raid-eric-adams-fund-raising-suggs-new-york-mayor Perhaps she can get a ticket anywhere in the world.
  6. They go by the date they receive it bit otherwise it would seem simpler to file again.
  7. AP seems to be taking 7 months but that is on average, could be quicker could be longer.
  8. I think he identifies as H so the usual rules do not apply.
  9. https://www.cbc.ca/newsinteractives/features/buffy-sainte-marie The long read To be fair she was born Beverley, seemingly part Italian and part English.
  10. I like filing for everything, especially if it is free.
  11. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/02/buffy-sainte-marie-documentary-controversy-indigenous-canada The CBC, which previously outlined its criteria for reporting “pretendian” stories, said it reached out to members of the Piapot family, but received no response. The CBC also says it reached out to the acting chief of Piapot First Nation to arrange a visit to the community, but the chief declined. The broadcaster added it “does not dispute the Piapot family adopted Buffy Sainte-Marie as an adult, nor does it dispute the validity of that traditional adoption”. Over the weekend, the Indigenous Women’s Collective said in a statement that after weighing the claims against Sainte-Marie, it concluded the singer had engaged in a “great deception” that allowed her to benefit from a “very deliberate and false narrative that misled thousands of Indigenous youth, adults, and most tragically, Indigenous survivors of colonial harm”. The group singled out Sainte-Marie’s previous statements that she was a survivor of the Sixties Scoop – a notorious period in Canadian history in which Indigenous children were forcibly taken from their homes and sent to live with white families. While the CBC documentary notes the Scoop began a decade after Sainte-Marie was born, adoptions into white families still took place. The Indigenous Women’s Collective also called for Sainte-Marie to be stripped of her 2018 Indigenous Album of the Year award at the Junos, a prestigious Canadian music award show. Of course nothing new here:
  12. You do not need a reason for AP, but a silly plan,
  13. Seems like it is 22 months since her arrival and for most cases they would have filed to adjust an been approved by now, especially as so many interviews are waived. Pull the I 864 if the case is outstanding, otherwise this is matter for a Divorce Lawyer not an Immigration Lawyer.
  14. We had the Me Too movements, Times Up, Empowerment etc, but then pro LGBTH with men taking over womens spaces and now the H. I cannot really get my head around it. Make it make sense but it's fascinating to watch.
  15. Students walk out of Hillary Clinton’s class to protest Columbia ‘shaming’ pro-Palestinian demonstrators Walkout at foreign policy lecture was in support of students who signed a declaration blaming Israel for October Hamas attacks https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/nov/02/hillary-clinton-columbia-walkout-palestine Lay with the Devil...
  16. Might be slightly but comes with many disadvantages. And of course we are estimating based on current data, 2 years in the future could be different.
  17. 2 years? She does not have to change her name.
  18. Coventry council used Airbnbs to house ‘vulnerable’ teenage boy accused of rape Judge accuses local authority of a ‘lackadaisical’ attitude to the 16-year-old’s care after regulated providers refused to give him a place A teenage boy who has been accused of multiple rapes was housed in Airbnbs by a local authority after regulated accommodation providers said it would be too risky for them to house him. Airbnbs and other temporary accommodation have been deployed because no secure placement can be found anywhere in England that is prepared to accommodate the child, who self-harms, makes weapons, assaults staff members, damages property and has been taken to hospital after expressing suicidal thoughts. He has been arrested on numerous occasions. At a hearing in the high court last week, family judge Mrs Justice Lieven said she found it “absolutely astonishing” that Coventry council had seen fit to place the vulnerable 16-year-old in a series of unregulated placements all around the country over the last 12 months, from which he has frequently absconded. He was later placed in an unregulated children’s home. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/nov/02/coventry-council-used-airbnbs-to-house-vulnerable-teenage-boy-accused-of Well this just popped up in my Graun feed. It does not say how much this is costing but you can imagine. I find it totally un astonishing, what do you expect? Anyway the article has a lot more detail. OK US is a little bit different bit the same issues arise.
  19. I suppose it is theoretically possible for F2a to apply but it would be a very weird combination of circumstance for that to happen. Much much more likely is that you are looking at F2b All you can do is file asap.
