You said you didn't like the "mixing" of them...sounds suspiciously like people who used to argue against miscegenation. Anyway, even if you don't think you're racist, you've said things that can be construed as such, so you might just want to watch what you say in the future. Just a thought.

Um, did you forget you wrote this?

Yes, well, when I was 17 I was already in college with a declared major, not trying to shoehorn my studies into fitting whatever job would be best suited to getting sponsorship for a visa...:p

Seems more like intolerant of people of other colors...but cheers to those of you who can look past this and still be helpful. I would have left the moment he posted his reasons for wanting to leave.

Took, I've really got to say, with your attitude, you need to seriously reconsider this "decision" you've made to move to the US. Major US cities are just as "multicultural" as Toronto, if not more so, unless you plan to move to the middle of nowhere to get away from these "undesirables."...

Thanks, the details of my case are in the thread I started earlier today about which forms to file. Unfortunately, we've been under the delusion that we had to file the I-130 first and then the I-485 and have had some big mail delays, but hopefully after the holidays we'll be able to file and...

Wow Praetorian, that's fantastic, congratulations. Where are you from, if I may ask?

Thanks. Yeah, you never know, but it's nice to know that it might be possible to visit our newborn niece in the UK next year instead of the two years I've seen.

Thanks again...ok, now, how to come up with the $1010 additional (I can't believe the bad advice given us by INS to only file I-130, if we had filed all these together last winter we would have saved what, over $600). *sigh* Yes, that's what we were told initially, that he should not and could...

Also, I just want to ensure that we do not have to fill out the I-485 Supplement A since he is applying as the spouse of a US citizen and entered legally...anyone? I've been reading the notes on the INS website and although it seems clear that this is the case, I don't want to have the forms...

Sorry, got the date wrong, but in any case the form was returned to us with our original check, asking for a new check and telling us the fee had gone up. So we should be filing all these forms together, the I-485 and the I-130, although he technically overstayed his visa? The link you...

Hi, I'm new to the forum and haven't found any info in the threads or FAQ's that addresses my situation so please bear with me. I am a US citizen and married to a UK national. He came to visit me in Feb. 2006 on a tourist visa, which was set to expire in May. During this time, we became...
