唯一和F签证的冲突就是,再也无法续签F签证。签证申请上会问,有没有交过移民申请
,填Yes,F肯定会拒签。
如果有五年F签证,倒是还好一些。入境的时候CBP一般不会想到问这个问题。看你有有

首先需要澄清的一个误解是, F1,J1身份完全可以申请绿卡, I-140和I-485都可以递交.
如果申请人的学术背景足够, I-140也会及时批准,没有耽搁. 只是I-485在批准前才需
要豁免批准证明 (waiver). 因此F1,-1签证持有者完全可以在F1,J1签证期间开始绿卡

Importance: Normal
The consular officer has some doubts about your mother's visa issuance but
in the end granted it because s/he believes your mother will come back after
a short legally authorized stay in the U.S. Therefore the visa was

However, it appears your mother wants to stay for a longer period

Stock investments are generally disregarded by consular

This is not to say that your parents cannot have stock

Technically, the law (INA and 22 CFR 40, 41) specifies:
(1) A visa application denied under INA 214(b) cannot be
appealed. All 214(b) denials are automatically reviewed
by another officer, and if the second officer disagrees,
the case is escalated internally.
(2) The authority of the consular officer to grant or deny
visa applications cannot be delegated, i.e., letters from
Senators and Representatives have no effect, only the
Bureau of Consular Affairs in Washington DC can overrule,

Sorry about the late reply. Just caught sight of your post. I answered "Yes"
to that question. For the reason part, I put "Visa application was rejected
because it was filed with Consular in Guangzhou when it should've been
filed with Consular in Beijing at that time." This was the case for my
parents but I'm not sure if it would apply to your mom.
Good luck!

doesn't make sense
要移民,先要公民petition,跟着等到petition批了而且排期到了才能真正申请绿卡(
Adjustment of status或consular processing)。petition本身对受益人身份没有影
响。
公民兄弟姐妹是F4类型,排期现在大概12.5年。就是说,petition递上了十几年之后才
能办Adjustment of status(如果那个时候在美国而且有合法身份)或consular
processing。
B签证逗留期最多6个月,所以要排期到的时候是合法身份的话,就要排期到之后或之前
6个月以内到美国。有petition排期那么快到的话,人家是不会让你用B签证进入美国的

Simply making the appointment does not equate to
having applied for the visa. The actual act of
making an application for a visa is defined in
the consular officer's manual (I don't remember
exactly the section, but probably 9 FAM 41.101N).
Basically, you would need to have submitted both
the application fee (unless waived) and the
application forms and have them accepted by the
consular officer for adjudication, then it is
considered that the application is made.

来自主题: Visa版 - 请教去加拿大激活H1签证
我刚把事情搞明白:新employer file consular notification for H1b, approve后出
境再回来取得新的I-94。 我并不需要签证, 因为原来的visa stamp没有过期,用新I-
797加visa stamp(即使写着原公司)是可以的。
我的问题是: 我可不可以还是要去签证(以后回国方便),用 approved consular
notification, 一是允不允许签, 二是风险有多大? 多谢建议。

Search my old posts in the last two or three months,
I cited the federal regulation that allows you to
present a copy of the I-797A or I-797B to the
consular officer.
You really don't need to present the original
copy since the consular officer will check your
petition in the PIMS database, i.e., they trust
the case files in the PIMS database, not the paper
in your hand, whether it is the original or a copy.
If you want a genuine replacement, you can't just
call USCIS. You need to file form I-8... 阅读全帖

来自主题: Visa版 - 6/13 Montreal H1B签经
版上最近不少去Montreal签证的, 我借鉴了很多经验, 大家都写得很详尽, 我就简
单写写自己的经历。
基本情况:PHD专业名字敏感(在TAL上面), 去年10月刚毕业就OPT上班了, H1B今年
2月份批准的, 4月10号开始。 具体从事的工作不敏感(至少我觉得哈), 跟
clinical trial相关。 7月份要去欧洲出差/开会, 9月份想回国, 不敢冒险去欧洲签
, 于是决定去Montreal。
提前一个月约好的, 之前刷了好几天都没有opening, 快要放弃了, 想实在不行就约
Ottawa吧。 结果有一天早上突然发现有N多的日期和时间,还来发了贴, 赶紧约上。
加拿大签证是公司指定的旅行社给办的, 该旅行社的DC分部给我讲每天下午DC的加拿
大大使馆接收agency代理的签证。 我就按照他们的要求填了某表, 提供了材料(全部
复印件)。 FEDEX overnite过去第二天下午签证就下来了。 果然没有照片。
6月12号开了5个半小时到了Montreal。 这个城市真的挺小挺旧的, 跟boston
downtown还有点点像。 停车路标都是法语, 查明白了才敢停。

It seems ok.
From the website of Shanghai consulate general:
"If you are planning to travel abroad while your U.S. non-immigrant visa
application is pending, let the Consular Officer know at the time of your
interview that you need to retain your passport. Once a decision is made on
your visa application, we will contact you and request you to return your
passport to our Consular section. If approved, your passport with visa will
only be mailed back to the address you provided on your mailing ... 阅读全帖

With rare exceptions, visa applicants should apply at the U.S. Consular
Section in their country of residence. If the applicant is not a resident of
Canada, interviewing officers at the U.S..Consular Sections in Canada may
not have experience in evaluating the circumstances in the applicant's
country of residence. The applicant will, therefore, have greater difficulty
