personally, i think the op is hosed. while the charges may be reduced, uscis will in all likelihood take a very dim view of this arrest.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionTAXES
If you are a us resident you are taxed on your foreign income. You can exclude up to $95,000. So try filing and use the exclusion or foreign tax credit. You may also get the earned income credit depending on how much you both earned. Did your husband earn any income while in college?

nope it's not suspicious and yes I did it. There's a spot for residential and another for mailing.

I had to put PO Box because we don't get street delivery. Had no problems. Approved without RFE or interview.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionWhen can i get response after RFE?
Was it a simple RFE? I got mine answered within 2 weeks.

When responding to a Request for Evidence it is extremely important that you place the blue coversheet on the top of the response you send to them. Did you do that?

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionPreparing an RFE
What was the RFE for?

When responding to a Request for Evidence it is extremely important that you place the blue coversheet on the top of the response you send to them. The VSC receives thousands of pieces of correspondence each day, if the blue coversheet is not on the top of the response it will be placed in “general” correspondence and NOT sorted as a priority, which may delay your case.

I also did priority mail with tracking for around $2.40 and everything was delivered quickly. Don't do signiture required.

I'm not against the occasional person showing up for unscheduled biometrics for whatever reason, I'm just against posting it as a general rule in the faq section, leaving the impression to everyone that this should be the rule to follow.
The unscheduled biometrics worked for you because you were the exception to the rule, don't forget that.



Well said. yes.gif

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussionmarriage fraud

Hi,

I met a Filipina and brought her to USA on a K1 Visa in 2009. We married and later divorced. She obviously did not move here to be with me and my kids. She never slept with me, never wore her wedding ring and always ignored us, etc. She mentally abused my kids when they were living with us. Eventually I had enough and tried to buy her a plane ticket back to the Philippines. She went into a rage and attacked me and left the house and went to her friends and called the police on me and eventually got a restraining order against me.

I have since married another Filipina and we got married in the Philippines and are working on our CR-1 visa and she is also pregnant with our child. At the same time my ex-wife is now in her 90 day window for ROC to get her 10 year Green Card. I had reported her to ICE after she left me and was told that my complaint was transferred to USCIS. I have a feeling I might never hear anything regarding my marriage fraud complaint.

I am trying to decide if I should continue to pursue my marriage fraud complaint against my ex and what impact that might have with my current wife and my petition for her CR-1 visa. And if I continue my case against my ex how should I go about getting my information to the correct people.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Thanks.


How did you meet Filipina wife #1 vs. Filipina wife #2, and what are the differences this time around? The different circumstances, IMO, will be important to explain to immigration should you be heavily scrutinized. In fact, I'm surprised you were able to meet another Filipina and petition her in such a short period of time from the first one.

Read this:

International Marriage Broker Regulation Act (IMBRA)

Petitioners that have a history of filing multiple petitions for fiancees

  • IMBRA expressly limits the number of fiancee petitions a United States citizen may file unless the petitioner requests and is granted a waiver of the filing limits. The waiver is submitted with the K-1 Visa petition that is filed with the USCIS.

    Specifically, IMBRA prohibits the approval of a K-1 Visa petition if the petitioner has:
  • Filed two or more petitions; OR,
  • Filed the current petition less than two years since filing a prior petition.Petitioners can request a waiver of these limitations by explaining why they believe a waiver would be appropriate.

It sounds like you've bigger fish to fry than worrying about your ex-wife's immigration, unless she in fact was successful in filing a domestic abuse report against you.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionQuestion regarding biometrics for Removing Conditions
We just received our I-751 Receipt Notice in the mail.

The notice states...

In order to further process your petition, you will be receiving an Application Support Center (ASC) appointment notice with a specific time, date and location to capture your fingerprints, photo, and signature. You MUST wait for your appointment notice before going to ASC for biometrics processing.

NOTE: Conditional resident applicants... WILL NOT RECEIVE an ASC appointment notice. To complete biometric processing, these applicants must submit the required items on the I-751 form instructions.

......

So my question is, since we already submitted the required items with our orginal I-751 submission, do we go ahead and get our biometrics as a walk in? The notice is confusing because they're saying we will not be given an appointment for biometrics but doesn't say that biometrics is not required for conditional residents. I apologize if this has been asked many times before, but the USCIS could do a better job of clarification.

I would just wait for the biometrics letter and then go to the appointment. Don't worry, you will get the appointment soon.


But according to the notice, we will not receive an appointment.

Further down (last paragraph) makes it all the more troubling:

Upon receipt of your ASC appointment notice (which according to them, we won't get), you can find the status of your case on-line at www.uscis.gov.

This notice was poorly thought out as it leaves conditional resident applicants hanging as to what they should expect from this point on.

QUOTE (~krakatoa~ @ Jul 14 2009, 08:42 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
It is not as confusing as you think,

The note in the receipt notice completely says,
"Conditional resident applicants, including conditional resident dependents, residing overseas pursuant to military or government orders WILL NOT RECEIVE an ASC appointment notice. To complete biometric processing, these applicants must submit the required items listed on the I-751 form instructions."

If you do not reside overseas on military/gorvernment orders this does not apply to you. Expect to receive the ASC appointment notice for your biometrics and you need the notice to enter the ASC or do a walk-in.
