    ZedbraGuy got a reaction from Miss M in Citizenship   
    This might seem like a strange question to some and I'm not knocking your decision, but I have noticed that most people on VJ see gaining US citizenship as something of a certainty
    My question is why?
    I know as a citizen you can vote, but the system is broken so that doesn't really appeal to me
    You can commit a felony without being deported, but again as I'm not a criminal that isn't important
    So the only other benefit I can see is you remove the need to deal with the USCIS every ten years
    I'm not American, I never will be and I am proud of where I come from
    But why is it that most people seem to consider it as an inevitable part of the migration process

    ZedbraGuy got a reaction from Nigel&Meggie in Copy of Marriage Cert.?   
    I haven't read anywhere in the actual USCIS instructions that says a certified copy is required, it just says a copy. My AP and EAD were both applied for in this way and there were no problems, and I don't expect any with AOS either

    ZedbraGuy got a reaction from milimelo in Are we in trouble...?   
    If as you say he earned between 3k and 15k over the last three years I don't know how your visa was approved, but never the less, your husband needs additional income, second job or whatever, or you need a co-sponsor, because at no point during the past three years has he met the 125% level
    There are supposed to be processes in place to stop this sort of situation happening, so you've been let down by the system, but now you just have to focus on the problem and take the hit together to achieve what you need to get to the next step, all other considerations are secondary

    From what I can see you only have the one option, your husband needs to be earning the required poverty guideline level of income, if he's not he needs to find another job(s) as otherwise no AOS will be approved, and you won't be able to work. I think once you accept that and start focusing your efforts on sorting that problem things will get better

    ZedbraGuy got a reaction from Nich-Nick in "not applicable" or N/A   
    You don't need DS-230 part 2 for a K1 anyway
    I believe I used a combination of N/A and None depending on the question

    ZedbraGuy reacted to Tanoushka in Useless NOA2   
    I agree with that.
    I'm sorry he feels the pain right now.
    The anger coming from him baffled me.
    The way he even talks about the ex is scary. It's always somebody else's fault. There is always someone else to blame.
    And frankly, the "Russian Wife dream"??? Really?

    I believe strongly in international relationships.. I don't beleive they offer gaurantees in cases where one or the other partner has extreme views. I don't beleive people there are many diferences between men or women seeking relationships abroad and those seeking relationships in their hometown, there are just many good people and just as many bad people in either scenerio... Whats unfortunate is that when relationships go wrong, is they blame the system rather than look at themself..
    GOing into a Long Distance Relationship comes with certain understanding between two people.. LDR has it's share of challenges due to the time apart. People in a LDR need to understand that going in and work together to help each other to deal with those challenges.. Asside from those things, the dynamics are the same.. If your extreme in any particular ideas, eventually any and every relationship will suffer and likely end and manytimes, end badly...
    Al, I would seriously search inside and understand if your anger is really about problems with Elena, or is it because you're hurt and feel you want to blame someone.. Have you really sat and given yourself time to reflect on other possible causes of this ending.. You can't beleive simply because her last relationship failed, that she's a scammer.. Maybe she realized something about that past relationship that frightened her..
    The fact is, there is just as much possibility that the cause of this relationship failing is due to more than you're sharing.. It does nobody any good, (I mean it does YOU no good) if you're not honest with yourself.. If your personality changed during the time you spent waiting for the NOA2, and it became such that Elena lost interest, then those things will also your future relationship if you're not honest with yourself..
    Just some thoughts...

    ZedbraGuy reacted to Penny Lane in K1's at VSC are at a stand still   
    I cannot believe this thread.
    People complained, rightfully so, when VSC was terribly slow.
    Now, VSC sped up, made up a LOT of ground last week, approved nearly 70 petitions, and ... still complaints.
    You can't have 20 approvals a day.
    Stop obsessing over the numbers, life your life, and the NOA2 will come.

    ZedbraGuy reacted to rsn in K1's at VSC are at a stand still   
    The best advice anyone ever gave me during this process was 'stop obsessively pouring over the "statistics"'. There are definitely people in this thread who are spending way too much time trying to make sense of these numbers. This will get you no where. Just wait until the 5 month mark and bring your senator into the mix if you don't have your NOA2 at that point. In the meantime, find a hobby.

    The visa process is expensive, if you can't afford to meet in person you probably can't afford to apply for the visa, let a lone meet the financial requirements for the visa and the AOS
