Re: Naturalization success

Naturalization success

Greetings all,

It's been a while since I posted here but I thought I'd share my good news. Almost 19 months to the day after submitting my N400, I had my naturalization interview in the Fairfax,...

Re: Green Card Question (Marriage and H1B visa)

Yeah, no kidding. You could ask the five different people at the USCIS the same question and get five different answers. Actually, you could ask one person the same question five times and still...

Re: Green Card Question (Marriage and H1B visa)

Re: Marriage based visa / Green card advice for H1B holder

As a H1-B visa holder, I believe you are eligible to apply to change status from temporary worker to permanent resident, once you marry your USC fiance. As soon as you are married, you and your wife...

Re: Renounce Allegiance & Dual Citizenship

Well, there may be circumstances where the US *has* to allow it. For example, what about a child born in, say the UK, to US citizen parents? That child is automatically a US citizen, but is also a...

Re: Renounce Allegiance & Dual Citizenship

It's always been my view that everyone who decides they want to live permanently in a particular country should become a citizen of that country. I immigrated from the UK to Australia when I was an...

Re: H1-B , Now married to USC, unemployment benefits?

As someone else said, I believe that once you aren't working for your H1-B employer, for whatever reason, you are out of status, so you should get your AOS application in, pronto. As for eligibility...

Re: Update My Work Permit Info At My Workplace? Please Help

Re: Possible marriage fraud...what to do?

Well that sucks! I know everyone says don't worry about it, move on with your life, blah, blah, blah, but if it were me, I'd be looking into getting out of that deal. I know everyone signs the...

Re: OT: B-2 Visa issued with incorrect dates

Mr. F

Re: VOT: Wrong dates on B-2 Visitor's visa

Hi Mr. F.
I took a look at the I-539. It seems you need a very compelling reason, based on the info on that form, something like "If I am even moved, my lungs will explode and I will die a most...

Re: VOT: Wrong dates on B-2 Visitor's visa

Re: VOT: Wrong dates on B-2 Visitor's visa

Re: VOT: Wrong dates on B-2 Visitor's visa

Right Rene, I don't think I ever expressed any sense of unfairness, but thanks to Mr F. all the same for his input.

Re: VOT: Wrong dates on B-2 Visitor's visa

Right, gotcha - the visa really just let's her board the plane in Australia, she's totally at the mecry of the POE official when she gets here. How do folks deal with this kind of thing? I went...

Re: OT: B-2 Visa issued with incorrect dates
