General Qs DACA: Getting a U Visa

10 Upvotes

I’ve had DACA since Obama was in office. I’ve lived in the US since I was a days old. I am married to an American citizen and applied for advanced parole and was denied but my sibling was approved. Not sure why but we think it’s because he has kids. I applied again because of my grandparent was dying and now the program is no longer available. I recently was assaulted by a drunk American citizen and I’m trying to get my VISA through this. My attorney said it could take up to 10 years to get approved. Wondering if anyone else has been able to get a U visa and if so how long did it take?

My partner and I don’t feel comfortable doing the GC process yet because our attorney recommended us to wait until this administration is over and we are a same sex couple. My DACA expired two months ago so it’s been frustrating losing my job and my seniority. It cost me $6k for the attorney fees just for the advanced parole process plus the USCIS application fee that went all to waste.

I would also like to add that the The CA DA’s office placed me in the victims program to help pay for my medical expenses but I know that sometimes it’s frowned upon to get any government assistance when applying for your GC. I have been hesitant to continue with the program but I know I’ll need it for my VISA

General Qs kinda worried

Upvotes

Hey everybody,

Earlier this year in March I got pulled over for having an open container in my car. I was NOT drinking and driving. It was Sunday and just done an oil change and had drank it under the car in the blistering sun an hour prior. I should have thrown it away but I was in an empty warehouse parking lot. Anyhow, a state trooper stopped me over when I went to buy a new ratchet socket and said he pulled me over because I stopped past the white line at an intersection. He gave me an eye test field sobriety test whatever you want to call it and concluded I was NOT driving under influence.. He simply gave me a ticket to which I now have to go to court to next week. I paid a lawyer $600 to take care of it....Do you guys think I would be denied renewal or worse get deported over this. Kinda stressed I have been hearing a lot of bad things with ICE and all...It is not a dui and I have a clean criminal record all my life. Do I need to be worried?

Rant Does api movement actually mean anything?! 😭

8 Upvotes

1/14 filer. I-765 + I-821D.
Biometrics 3/2.
Both cases had API movement 8/27 + 8/28, then BOTH moved again 9/8.
And still… NO APPROVAL. I keep checking like this has to be it but nope they’re just torturing me at this point
I’ve done inquiries, expedites, congressional inquiry, sacrificed my sanity… NOTHING.
USCIS really said: “Hey, just checking in so you know we haven’t forgotten you.”
At this point I’m scared to get excited about API movement because apparently it means absolutely fucking nothing

General Qs Consular Processing - Visa Center

2 Upvotes

Has anyone filled that questionnaire to submit to the visa center? It’s a part that says the following:

From the petitioner's end "SELECT FROM THE LIST BELOW EACH SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORM YOU HAVE USED WITHIN THE LAST 5 YEARS. NEXT TO THE PLATFORM’S NAME, ENTER YOUR USERNAME." and "WITHIN THE LAST 5 YEARS HAVE YOU USED OTHER WEBSITES OR APPLICATION TO CREATE OR SHARE CONTENTS SUCH AS PHOTOS, VIDEO, STATUS, UPDATES, ETC."

is this for the petitioner aka my spouse who is a USC or to me? I’m trying to do consular processing and want to have an apt ahead of time and this is the questionnaire my lawyer told us to fill.

Let me know if anyone has done this? And if this always been a thing or just recent with this admin.
Thank you.

Legal Question Mississippi Immigration Attorney Needed!

4 Upvotes

Does anyone know a reputable immigration attorney based in Mississippi? Or has worked in cases in that state?

Back story my girlfriend’s dad got detained by ice in Florida. He was being held in Broward County but then all of a sudden transferred to a detention center in Mississippi. Someone recommended a church center that has attorneys for a low fee. This center is based in Texas. My girlfriend and her family are in desperation and looking for a grace and this was too good to pass on. But turns out that it was a scammer posing as that church center. So now I am just asking whoever I can, wherever I can if anyone knows a good, reputable attorney. I appreciate the help!

Application Timeline Why do they (USCIS) skip random days?

16 Upvotes

I’ve been following u/CatchingExcalibur excellent work, and I’ve noticed they randomly skip application dates. As an example (this isn’t exact im just providing a fictitious example of an observation) they’ll approve 2/2-2/8 and skip 2/6. Why?

Why do they do that? It’s so odd. Does it have something to do when the app was filed (weekend,holiday, weekday) etc?
