  1. Now this is stunning and brave "Trans age is the next new thing" - Riley Gaines reacts to swimming competition allowing 50-year-old transgender swimmer to compete with teenage girls The organization held the championship on October 20, in which 10 female swimmers took part. While nine of the swimmers were between 13 to 14 years of age, the tenth swimmer turned out to be a 50-year-old biological man named Nicholas J. Cepeda, a.k.a Melody Wiseheart. https://www.sportskeeda.com/swimming/news-trans-age-next-new-thing-riley-gaines-reacts-swimming-competition-allowing-50-year-old-transgender-swimmer-compete-teenage-girls
  2. Last week, the Oregon Department of Education unanimously voted to remove a requirement for Oregon high schoolers to demonstrate basic mastery in reading, writing, and mathematics in order to graduate. The requirement, which was most often met using students' standardized test results, has been paused since 2020. https://reason.com/2023/10/25/oregon-is-removing-a-requirement-for-high-school-students-to-show-essential-skills-before-graduating/
  3. I 601 seems to be about 18 months but first you need to be interviewed at the Consulate and refused for the overstay. Not sure I see how a I 601 comes into this otherwise but the story is confusing so I could have missed something.
  4. I do not believe in the Left and the Right spectrum but these people do and consider themselves Left. Adolf was a National Socialist so also Left Hamas by their definition would surely be right? Fascists ie Mussolini etc are right. Plus hard core religous types alledgedly.
  5. I 130 now goes to Consulate, I 601a approved then book Consulate interview allowing for whatever time she has left. There was a case I saw where the Lawyer booked an appointment before it was approved and they had to start again. I thought you said earlier it was less than 6 months but whatever it is you have to allow for, So approved I 601a, Consulate appointment after the x months and Immigrant Visa, assuming you have no other way.
  6. I like how at the end they compared Brandon to Hitler.
  7. Local law matters US Federal Law matters Texas law generally does not, Cousin Marriage comes to mind hence generally.
  8. It is not property, it is how the US Tax Man treats realised gains when you are US resident for tax purposes. I know enough to know it can hit people hard.
  9. Well that is not how the I 601a route works. Putting that to one side then your only other options are that she stays here illegally, maybe wait for Comprehensive Immigration Reform, or somehow get the HRR waived, which you have tried and failed, so not sure how realistic that is. Well I could have missed something and I am working off limited information, and I will put my hand up and say I certainly do not consider myself an expert in this area.
  10. Excellent, some of the limitations can come as a nasty shock.
  11. She has no way of coming back in 3 months, she will have a 10 year ban anyway and no Visa.
  12. Not a lot of difference there, well that has been recent experience. Inability to work, travel, extra costs etc.
  13. Presumably you are aware of the issues around the K1.
  14. It is unusual for their to be an I 130 interview but not unknown.
  15. Just a single WoM. A year now and they are usually given 3 months to get it done, so that is say 15 months and no Judge is going to say waiting that long is reasonable. Hacking has his show on YT this afternoon I think 2pm your time, call in and ask?
  16. For many people it is getting close to being a retirement visa. I have seen people try and calculate it, we do know how many are waiting and 65,000 are allocated a year, but we do not know how many dependents, how many will die, change their minds or move to the US in a different way. There are factors like Humanitarian Reinstatement. That used to be pretty rare, my impression is that it is much more common now. I used to multiply current wait time by 50% now I double, but there is no way anyone can really know. There has been talk of doing away with F3, F4 and DV for as long as I can remember, I seriously doubt there will be any change in the foreseeable future.
  17. Selling having moved to the US has potentially major tax issues.
  18. I did think 7th October killed the Debate in the US. Why do you need an AR 15 (Not saying that is the most appropriate), gets out video clips of what happened in Israel.
  19. It is 15 years plus for those who filed 15 plus years ago. Assuming nothing changes as far as visa numbers are concerned it will be a lot longer for someone who files now.
  20. That was quick, so they approved the I 130, basically they recognise the sibling relationship so now you are just waiting.
