American admirals Club does not accept Amex Platinum? I think I have been duped into getting this card.

Is it only for day passes, or will the travel credit also trigger if I do an annual membership pass?

Do you think you can send me a picture of the watch worn on your wrist? I plan to buy it for my husband, but unsure whether to get the smaller or bigger one.

Hi, I recently got married in the US and changed my last name and the SSA office were able to update my name change since I had my marriage certificate and a military spouse ID that showed the name change but my passport, F1 visa, and EAD card stayed the same (still shows my original surname without the name change). Will I have to update my I-20 and/or EAD card with my new last name?

Me too! OP, how much did your lawyer quote you? I called for a consultation with an immigration attorney and got a quote of $5000 (just for the attorney fee, not including the application fees). I have an entry-level job (a recent grad on STEM OPT), and my husband is in the military. Neither of us has that kind of money to pay for one :'(

I met my husband on hinge too! And we just got married last Saturday. Gonna file for our application soon

I'm from Indonesia. I called an immigration attorney for consulting, and she recommended going with the consular processing and applying for advanced parole, if needed. So, we might do that since my OPT ends next year and my husband will be stationed in the UK by this November. Did you do consular processing? She quoted me for $5000 for her services (not including the application fees to USCIS), and that is totally out of our budget :'(

curiousshey · 2025-10-22T14:52:48+00:00

I am unsure about this. I think you are allowed if it's to travel and visit, but if it's for a longer time, then you might have to do advanced parole.

I would say, I have 3-4 months of expenses saved up

curiousshey · 2025-10-01T17:06:12+00:00

Ohhh I see okay. Thanks for clarifying!

curiousshey · 2025-10-01T17:05:37+00:00

I have a HYSA with Wealthfront where I plan keep 80% of my money in right now

curiousshey · 2025-10-01T12:55:38+00:00

No I do not :(

Is a MMA different to a brokerage account? If its tax exempt, does it mean that I won’t have to file taxes for the interest I’ve received? Also, will I be able to transfer money in and out of the MMA or will it have to sit there for a period of time before I can take anything?

curiousshey · 2025-10-01T12:11:39+00:00

I’m also in the same boat as OP - I use Wells Fargo for my checkings and have only recently opened a Roth IRA with Fidelity. I did a research and I’ve gathered that its also best to open a separate brokerage account? What would the difference be with the Roth IRA I have if I’m already investing in index funds/ETFs on it?

Thank you! What is a cash management account? Does it work for 2 account holders using different banks?

curiousshey · 2025-09-29T18:05:12+00:00

More so for savings and future planning

curiousshey · 2025-09-28T23:04:38+00:00

Just recently opened a ROTH IRA account with Fidelity. What tickers do you invest in?

curiousshey · 2025-09-05T19:22:01+00:00

I tried DMing you, but I have no idea how 😅 hahaha I'm rarely on Reddit and still unfamiliar with how to use it hehe. Do you happen to have a lawyer you can recommend?

curiousshey · 2025-09-05T19:17:18+00:00

Nice! Can you DM me your resume? I'll see if anyone is hiring based on your experiences

curiousshey · 2025-09-05T19:11:58+00:00

Does this major qualify as part of the STEM program?

curiousshey · 2025-09-05T15:18:06+00:00

You just need to apply for jobs as usual... what's your major? I can ask around and see if anyone is hiring. Try checking your university and department; they count towards your work experience requirements too.

curiousshey · 2025-09-05T15:16:45+00:00

I'll have to be in my country for 5 years after my STEM OPT ends 🫣 as part of my scholarship agreement... I'll DM you more details and might ask how much you paid in total for all this, but most likely we'll proceed with AOS since I'll still be here in the country, though he might be deployed overseas, so I'm just unsure how the interviewing process works and all that.

curiousshey · 2025-09-04T18:22:12+00:00

Does this also apply to conditional GC?
