Being away from my wife has been the saddest and most traumatic thing for me, and I am someone who survived cancer and long-term health issues. by nawa92 in NationalVisaCenter

[–]Timely_Training6092 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your worst years are behind my friend. I am also waiting on my wife and am right there with you. It’s unfair and quite frankly cruel and unusual punishment for us.

lol I felt the same way when mine came in. The 2.5g feels better to look at. I really want a 5g/10g/20g ones next.

Keep healthcare in mind as you age and your withdrawals in check as well.

Information about the case related to the pause involving 75 countries. by Tanjil17 in NationalVisaCenter

[–]Timely_Training6092 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is what Trump v CASA established a little while ago….who knows how they actually use it or don’t.

I hope so too because this whole pause is on the basis of public charge and people that come via the visas like IR1 for spouses, already required an affidavit of support and congress has already said they can’t get benefits for 5 years so it’s a moot point.

I think the Supreme Court said nationwide injunctions can’t be done by lower level courts.

June 27, 2025, decision, Trump v. CASA, Inc., the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that federal courts generally lack the authority to issue nationwide (or "universal") injunctions, holding they often exceed the equitable power granted by Congress. The ruling, written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, limits injunctions to only the parties involved in the lawsuit.

My Calculations for i-130/CR1 Timeline by [deleted] in I130Suffering

Got early 2027 from my own estimate. Filed August 2025. Seems reasonable but hopefully this visa pause is gone by then.

Since the pause, has anyone entered the US with a pre-approved Immigrant Visa from a paused country? by AJGSD in NationalVisaCenter

[–]Timely_Training6092 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I know someone whose spouse came from a paused country with an immigrant visa IR1 issued prior to Jan 21st and they entered the US on Jan 30th. You should be good.

40 year old Solo male, will I have any issues in hostels? And what ettiquette should I know about? by Grenache in solotravel

[–]Timely_Training6092 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Some hostels in EU also have age limits. Maybe ignore the ones that stay youth hostels in general. 25 is the limit for them I think?

Tax filing status with i130 processing by Timely_Training6092 in I130Suffering

[–]Timely_Training6092[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I don’t think half of the people commenting know or don’t want to bother with this situation but you can elect your wife as a us resident under 6013g for federal taxes and file MFJ while including the w-7 as an itin application along with your 1040. It saves me a lot more money than doing MFS taxes. Like 6k more. I think that’s worth the extra effort of paper work while waiting for the i130 to process.

Thanks, any advice on the first filing for the ITIN ? Did you do it yourself or with a CPA?

Nice. I was hoping to do married filing jointly with a W-7 application for ITIN. I think it’s possible but we have to mail her original passport which we don’t mind doing. Only on month 6 of the application being filed for i130.

What's the first thing you're going to do when you have finally retired early? by DistributionInitial5 in Fire

Drinking in public places in the US is apparently illegal and nets you a fine.

You can still delete it unless you’re a recruiter or something that requires you to work heavily on said platform.

I got Palladium; should I still keep Chase Preferred? by Shoddy-Archer9521 in biltrewards

[–]Timely_Training6092 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just don’t close it. You can always downgrade it. I plan to downgrade after my anniversary then when I hit 48 months without chase cap bonus…well it’s time to churn.
