Re: Long time no see, N-400 time

I think it varies by the jurisdiction where you file. In LA, it typcially takes 4-5 months. Of course, they can wave their wand next week and the times will change completely.

Re: B2 Cohabiting Partner visa - questions

That is a really interesting thing to say to the public. 1000s of arrivals daily and it is not possible for a CBP officer to make a mistake. LOL.

Re: Long Term Partner of an H1B visa holder

Correct. I have heard this at CBP Liaison Meetings. The CBP officer does have this discretion. You might as well make the argument at the airport. Come in with a print out of the new policy for...

Re: Long Term Partner of an H1B visa holder

As I read the memo, I do not see any references to an extended B-2 visa.

L-1(It looks like your company has branches in the U.S.), H-1, F-1, H-4...those are a lot of options. You might want to...

Re: H1B Degree Issue

There are services that perform credential evaluations for H-1B applicants. Most charge around $100 for it. You should consider obtaining one of these for your H-1B petition.

Re: *Must* I use my CR-1 immigrant visa first time?

Re: *Must* I use my CR-1 immigrant visa first time?

OP is discussing his first entry after the immigrant visa interview, not the I-864. The I-864 requires the Petitioner to be domiciled (or re-estabish her domicile) in the U.S. Given that the I-864...

Re: *Must* I use my CR-1 immigrant visa first time?

Re: Global Entry on a GC

Re: After filing the I-130....

You are looking at 3+ years wait based on today's numbers for a current visa number. I am not sure I see the wisdom of the B-2 idea. Perhaps an H-1B, if he has a University Degree and a job offer...

Re: HELP - AR11 form, change of address qeury??

I disagree with this. The AR-11 does actually change your address with immigration. The OP should also note that AR-11s are no longer filed with London, Kentucky. The new address is:

Re: I-485 AOS - PR parent filing for an adult child

Re: Can we move to USA whilst applying for I-130 visa?

You should note that the I-130 alone is not a visa and does not give a right to live/work in the U.S. It is the first step of the immigrant visa process for each of your family members. For the...
