    Bumping this topic... You all may have noticed the forum upgrade and the downtime this past fall, in order to get our site back up and on line we had to purchase a new version of software and a recurring license. Any donation to the kitty is greatly appreciated.

    Depends on visa type if a student visa there are ways to adjust status, either through a job or perhaps marriage to a us citizen. However if the visa is a J-1 visa, this type tends to require returning to home country and remaining there at least 2 years before they can emigrate, they require a waiver issued by foreign country.

    Copy of registration should be fine.

    Actually you can insist on accompanying your spouse through the returning resident line, just let the officer at the start of the line you are traveling together and they will direct you to whichever line. They did this with me when traveling with my then fiancée on her K-1, and did later when my wife US Citizen was traveling with her mother when mum entered on a visit visa and later when mum was entering on an immigrant visa.

    My Chinese niece filed her N-400 last year in Dallas, it looks like she will interview soon.

    Started watching with the wife last night we enjoy and can understand the culture clash. https://www.netflix.com/title/81090071?s=i&trkid=13747225

    I can feel the pain, it's been a wild ride for me too.

    My wife did it 4 years after getting her residency, several reasons for her doing it. 1) She wanted to be able to petition for her mother to come and live out her remaining years with us. 2) She also filed a petition fir her sister and family allowing her sister the opportunity to immigrate and live with us if she do chooses when the petition eventually gets assigned a visa number. 3) My wife wanted to participate in our elections and voting.

    Uninstalling them should be fine, my wife’s laptop has several of these apps, they get installed along with others she sometimes install. Other tool I tend to run to rip this stuff off is malware bytes, the free version is all you really need todo a cleanup. https://www.malwarebytes.com/

    I know just the app to do the task, I’ve used J-Album before as a tool for building web albums, it generates an album and resized photos from an existing collection of photos in a batch processing. You can toss out the HTML code and just keep the resized pics for emailing... https://jalbum.net/en/software

    How about submitting a certificate of no marriage and then explaining the loss of comprehension when doing the DS-260

    Super funny guy. https://people.com/tv/tim-conway-dies/ One of his best, they say Harvey Korman peed himself he was trying to keep a straight face.

    You need a "wet signature" copy of this at the interview, no? The form is legally binding, signing it and sending it to NVC along with the financial evidence should be enough, NVC processing and aproving it will be noted to the interviewing officer, there should be no need to present it again at the interview.

    Should be sending this to Department Of State during that stage of the process along with other requested evidence. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/collect-and-submit-forms-and-documents-to-the-nvc/step-4-collect-financial-documents.html

    Congrats! My wife has appreciated citizenship benefits, she voted in the past elections since naturalized, and petitioned for her mother and sister, mother is living with us and her sister is in the long wait for her F4 class visa.

    One just opened a few blocks from our apartment in Frisco, the grand opening was highly anticipated and the place was packed.

    First thing she will have to naturalize and become a US Citizen, after which she can then file an I-130 petition for her mother. My wife did the same thing a few years ago, and we have her living with us on a green card.

    I can understand the “force fed” concept, from what I see Chinese learn by memorization and drill. From my personal experience with my wife learning to drive, early on in her learning and preparing for the road test she kept insisting on practicing on the roads where the test would happen trying to memorize the test area, it took her some time to get away from the memorizing and understanding the concept of adapting to the situation.

    I helped my wife’s niece adjust status from a student visa, it’s just a matter of filing an I-130 and an I-485 together at same time.

    This one came up in the news today, kind of nuts. Lufthansa Is Suing a Man For Missing a Connecting Flight https://www.popularmechanics.com/flight/airlines/a26305719/lufthansa-lawsuit-hidden-city/

    That's crazy slow, back when my wife did her's it was perhaps 4 months for Buffalo NY

    Got it backward... a US Citizen submits acertificate of single status or evidence of no marriage like a divorce certificate when applying to marry in CHINA, not in the states.

    In our case, shortly after my wife got her 2 year green card, w revisited the SSA office and ordered an unrestricted SSN card without the "with work authorization" notation on it. So would avoid problems when removing conditions.

    I have seen horror stories where someone reschedules the biometric, but it did not take, and they trip a no show at the original appointed time causing all sorts of havoc with the pending petition or application.
