    Open new accounts under your name and transfer all your funds before you lose it all, if you haven't. You wont be able to make her happy by giving her your hard working savings, it is very obvious [in my own selfish opinion] she is a lot more interested in other things and not the relationship.. After you take everything away, you will know if indeed she is in the relationship or is just interest.
    Good luck..

    Funny thing, I am loosing it not thanks to VSC, lol
    Honestly, since we have been there before [K-1, AOS] we have learned to seat and wait.. For my current process [ROC] Vermont is working on December 11, 2012.. It may sound pretty close but knowing them, it may be much longer.. We could have a problem if we are planing to travel and the GC / Extension has expired but other than that, we know for sure it will arrive, sometime in the near future [thinking positive]
    Now for the other cases, K1, AOS, is my understanding they are moving some cases to local offices with jurisdiction authority. I remember seeing the note but cannot find it..
    Hey, the fact is, no matter how many times you call, how many congressman you write.. VSC is plain slow [lazy maybe?]

    DoneWaiting got a reaction from Mrs. JHH in Interview experience in Norfol, VA   
    I know I am late to the post, but the process in general is stressful not to say direct interviews. The chances to make a mistake while interview [and I mean forget] is greater than most people expect. Typically and almost 80% of the cases called for interview do not get the answer on the spot, for some reason, even if everything is in order, the officers do not give you the answer on the spot..
    In any event, good to hear you have your GC approved.. best of luck,

    DoneWaiting reacted to pushbrk in PRE-NUP GOOD OR BAD IDEA?   
    Open and frank discussion of such matters is critical. I usually don't comment on Pre-nuptual agreement threads.
    If the situation is that the person wanting the agreement is thinking, "I really love my future spouse and have confidence in our relationship but I also understand that even in the best of situations, many couples divorce after a short time. If this happens, I want to treat this person fairly but do not want to lose half of everything I've worked for, in the event the marriage lasts only a short time." then the other party will want to carefully evaluate the actual agreement to see if they think it's fair, under the circumstances. If not, perhaps you suggest changes.
    It's all highly unromantic and depending on a person's own frame of reference, they can be quite discouraged by such a development. At the same time, there are practical matters to consider in any plan to marry.

    DoneWaiting reacted to Gary and Alla in Faster option?????   
    Who says there is not a K-3?
    Speed of receiving the visa should not be the main consideration. Consider ALL the advantages and disadvantages of all.
    K-1 gets the loved one here faster, btu then they cannot travel or work for several months or more. CR-1 takes a little longer but comes with a green card, so immediate travel and work, if those are considerarions.
    K-3s (YES still available) allow up to two years traveling before adjusting status...good for a person who has to take some time to close a foreign business, for example, or a family that may intend to live in a foreign country after some time and really do not need a green card at this time. For the average permanent resident seeking couple, the K-3s have nothing to offer really and are frequently called "obsolete" They are not obsolete, just of limited attractiveness.

    DoneWaiting reacted to JimVaPhuong in K1 Visa Application Revoked   
    If your petition is still in Rio then you could try to keep it there while you submit further evidence to the embassy. You would have to act very quickly. If the visa section chief has already reviewed it and signed off on it then there probably isn't much you can do - the petition is headed back to the US. Otherwise, your attorney should be able to help you prepare a letter asking the visa section chief to hold your petition at the consulate while you prepare new evidence.
    There is nothing to "reopen". Your petition isn't dead yet. The consular officer has recommended that the approval of the petition be revoked. It is now up to USCIS to decide what to do. There are three possibilities, as Audy_Rob mentioned, and a fourth that you could opt for yourself:
    1. USCIS decides to readjudicate the petition. After consideration, they determine that the consular officer was wrong, and they reaffirm the approval of the petition. The petition will then go back through NVC, and eventually back to the consulate. Your fiancee will get a chance to submit another visa application and have another interview.
    2. USCIS decides to readjudicate the petition. After consideration, they determine that the consular officer was right. They send a Notice Of Intent to Deny (NOID) to you, the petitioner. You have a limited window of opportunity to respond. If you respond forcefully with evidence, and it's sufficient to override their decision, they'll reaffirm the petition approval and things proceed like option #1 above. If your response isn't enough to convince them, or you decide not to respond, they'll revoke the approval of the petition. This would be BAD! The consular officer has essentially accused your fiancee of misrepresentation; i.e., fraud. If USCIS concurs with that accusation, then your fiance will become inadmissible to the US for the rest of her life. You will need to get a hardship waiver to overcome the fraud, and those waivers are very difficult to get.
    3. USCIS decides not to bother with your returned petition, and they just let it expire. They send a notice to you, the petitioner, that your petition has expired and you are free to file again. CAVEAT: The California Service Center has been sending these expiration letters to USC petitioners, only to send a NOID when the petitioner files a second petition. The reasons given on the NOID echo the consular officer's accusations when the first visa application was denied. Again, respond forcefully - see option #2 above.
    4. You decide not to bother waiting for USCIS to make a decision on the returned petition, and you remarry your wife and file for a CR1 petition. This will NOT stop USCIS from making a decision on the returned petition. That petition isn't dead until they decide it's dead. They could still send a NOID on the first petition, and the consequences could be the same - your wife could show up for her CR1 interview only to be told she's inadmissible because of the fraud, and now you need to try to get a hardship waiver.
    At some point, somebody is going to notice that the dates on your marriages and divorces are not serialized, and they're going to figure out what happened. In that event, they could determine that BOTH of you are guilty of immigration fraud. She's inadmissible for life, and you are facing criminal charges, potentially losing your citizenship and being deported. Your nefarious marital history is a skeleton in your closet that needs to be exposed and carefully explained in a way that places it above suspicion, and this explanation needs to go into your case file.
    Re. your lawyer - yes, lawyers make mistakes all the time. The biggest mistake they make is that they have limited time to really absorb the facts of your case. You can help yourself AND your attorney by spending as much of your spare time as you can studying immigration law and reviewing prior similar cases. 90% of getting the right answers from your attorney is asking the right questions, and you need to be very well informed to do this. Start with the "Laws" link on the USCIS website.

    Why do you need to convince her? Isn't she able to understand that you can’t do it at this moment?
    It is best for her to realize what you are able to do for her at the moment rather than convince her.
    If I was you, I will seat with her and tell her we can’t do it right now and you will have to settle for the Ford.. Thank goodness you can give her a car, some other wives have to take the bus..

    I don’t agree in giving undocumented individuals the upper hand.. But, our law makers will not find a resolution prior taking this event to the next step. They don’t have the workers to fulfill the vacancies left in farms, construction, and other if they remove the illegals..
    But, if you are an employeer looking for hard working individual willing to work for $3, what would you do? Post an add in the paper? call your local union? and expect indivuduals looking to get pay no less than $25 p/h?
    Come on people, not even those living from our hard working tax dollars are willing to go there when they get free food money every month.. Is our own fault, I think.

    Actually my MAC is running properly,– [Americans include North, Central and South]. And this has nothing to do with 200 years of old history, although I don’t consider the Emancipation movements to be old otherwise you or your spouse wouldn’t in the USA..we are not equally balanced... we are judge by our status and more. Come on, we all say I will take their jobs but the trust is far from the reality, But I may be wrong .. I probably wouldn't .. I am not even sure if blue-collar workers will even consider it.. especially when you are working with very little rights no benefits and a low salary..

    The Right for an individual should not be measure by the immigration status. Nonetheless, illegal immigration are only guilty in continuously feeding "North Americans" [to be politically correct] their wide and self religiousness {spoil and arrogant [generally speaking]}.. but of course, would love to see IM prove them wrong.

    DoneWaiting got a reaction from one...two...tree in Immigrant farm workers' challenge: Take our jobs   
    SAN FRANCISCO – In a tongue-in-cheek call for immigration reform, farm workers are teaming up with comedian Stephen Colbert to challenge unemployed Americans: Come on, take our jobs.
    Farm workers are tired of being blamed by politicians and anti-immigrant activists for taking work that should go to Americans and dragging down the economy, said Arturo Rodriguez, the president of the United Farm Workers of America.
    So the group is encouraging the unemployed — and any Washington pundits or anti-immigrant activists who want to join them — to apply for the some of thousands of agricultural jobs being posted with state agencies as harvest season begins.
    All applicants need to do is fill out an online form under the banner "I want to be a farm worker" at http://www.takeourjobs.org, and experienced field hands will train them and connect them to farms.
    According to the Labor Department, three out of four farm workers were born abroad, and more than half are illegal immigrants.
    Proponents of tougher immigration laws have argued that farmers have become used to cheap labor and don't want to raise wages enough to draw in other workers.
    Those who have done the job have some words of advice for applicants: First, dress appropriately.
    During summer, when the harvest of fruits and vegetables is in full swing in California's Central Valley, temperatures hover in the triple digits. Heat exhaustion is one of the reasons farm labor consistently makes the Bureau of Labor Statistics' top ten list of the nation's most dangerous jobs.
    Second, expect long days. Growers have a small window to pick fruit before it is overripe.
    And don't count on a big paycheck. Farm workers are excluded from federal overtime provisions, and small farms don't even have to pay the minimum wage. Fifteen states don't require farm labor to be covered by workers compensation laws.
    Any takers?
    "The reality is farmworkers who are here today aren't taking any American jobs away. They work in often unbearable situations," Rodriguez said. "I don't think there will be many takers, but the offer is being made. Let's see what happens."
    To highlight how unlikely the prospect of Americans lining up to pick strawberries or grapes, Comedy Central's "Colbert Report" plans to feature the "Take Our Jobs" campaign on July 8.
    The campaign is being played for jokes, but the need to secure the right to work for immigrants who are here is serious business, said Michael Rubio, supervisor in Kern County, one of the biggest ag producing counties in the nation.
    "Our county, our economy, rely heavily on the work of immigrant and unauthorized workers," he said. "I would encourage all our national leaders to come visit Kern County and to spend one day, or even half a day, in the shoes of these farm workers."
    Hopefully, the message will go down easier with some laughs, said Manuel Cunha, president of the California grower association Nisei Farmers League, who was not a part of the campaign.
    "If you don't add some humor to this, it's enough to get you drinking, and I don't mean Pepsi," Cunha said, dismissing the idea that Americans would take up the farm workers' offer.
    California's agriculture industry launched a similar campaign in 1998, hoping to recruit welfare recipients and unemployed workers to work on farms, he said. Three people showed up.
    "Give us a legal, qualified work force. Right now, farmers don't know from day to day if they're going to get hammered by ICE," he said, referring to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. "What happens to my labor pool?"
    His organization supports AgJobs, a bill currently in the Senate which would allow those who have worked in U.S. agriculture for at least 150 days in the previous two years to get legal status.
    The bill has been proposed in various forms since the late 1990s, with backing from the United Farm Workers of America and other farming groups, but has never passed.
