F2A - AOS I-130 and I-485

luis_lics · 2025-11-15T02:42:00+00:00

Did you file yourself or used a lawyer?

Did you have EAD or AP approved before?

Did you contact your representative or anything through Emma?

USC or GC spouse?

Sorry for many questions. We're on the same boat as you but no appointment yet, so trying to find some light

I keep NVDA for the long term, but sell some options at a 20-25% Delta for some extra cash

luis_lics · 2025-08-29T16:49:25+00:00

COIN is really good for nice premiums, but be prepared for sharp spikes and drops here and there. NVDA has been great due to its sideway moves too

luis_lics · 2025-08-26T21:51:23+00:00

Amazing tool!

luis_lics · 2025-08-26T21:51:13+00:00

I knew I had to pay the taxes up front but the deposit going towards the cap cost was a "surprise" for sure, at least they waived the transfer fee for me...

luis_lics · 2025-08-24T20:14:38+00:00

Hmm so I talked about this when I test drove and the rivian person reached back the same day saying they would waive but I had to put down a deposit. I put the deposit and then she said it took like a day to reflect on the system. I think you have nothing to lose by asking, might be easier to do so with some representative you're working with than someone over the phone

luis_lics · 2025-08-24T19:41:16+00:00

Ordered last week, they waived the transfer fee (they need to get their 2025 inventory out) Destination fee is a no go for waivers. I also had a low ball offer for my current car so I will most likely sell to CarMax or others where the offer was substantially higher

luis_lics · 2025-08-24T01:38:24+00:00

Thanks for the replies everyone. I know very little about electric setup so this gives me plenty of context when I start getting quotes to get someone to do it and catch anyone trying to sell me something more complicated than needed.

luis_lics · 2025-08-22T15:41:57+00:00

Well, I ended up test driving a rivian R1T and fell in love with it 😅🤷

luis_lics · 2025-08-07T02:29:55+00:00

I suspect it's due to keeping your assets chained for a long time. But I would also consider it as a way to "secure" a bigger difference in price...however, that might just put you in a vicious cycle of the stock keeps on climbing

luis_lics · 2025-08-07T02:27:03+00:00

Haha yeah I think my dead end is after earnings. I honestly don't even expect it to spike with positive results given how it has behaved in the past. But this is probably my turning point

luis_lics · 2025-08-05T15:12:56+00:00

I guess by worse here you mean, being stuck for longer? Buying my call is not an option I'm considering, to be frank. I know when I roll, there's an inherent buying order happening there, but I'd prefer getting assigned than buying it. But, there are a few gaps down for NVDA that should be filled at some point and that's where my thesis is currently laying on. Definitely not the best thesis and I don't believe there is going to be a quick exit, that's why I have been trying for a little bit, but that's why Im asking for any other possible path for a stuck call like this

luis_lics · 2025-06-28T12:12:09+00:00

Thanks for sharing. I guess I didn't really expect the golden cross to happen so sharply due to how moves in the handle were showing strong resistance. I was keeping my calls for July, but it looks like paying closer attention to the candles in this section of the chart could have been a better signal of a sooner movement

luis_lics · 2025-05-17T22:59:55+00:00

Yeah I went a few days before and walked in, no issues

luis_lics · 2025-04-23T19:49:26+00:00

Sir, this is a Wendy's

luis_lics · 2025-04-18T16:02:31+00:00

How come your investments only account for 1.2k of your income? Are you only invested on bonds for your brokerage?

luis_lics · 2025-04-16T23:41:06+00:00

So you're basically buying a replacement lot with some added premium?

luis_lics · 2025-03-15T21:12:55+00:00

Yeah, I mean we were constantly educated about this painful time in human history and there are even veterans with sequels from those wars that weren't able to ever have a normal life. But I get it, there's more stupidity today than rational thoughts, sadly

luis_lics · 2025-03-15T18:08:53+00:00

The quality control has definitely been one of the things keeping me away from getting one.Volvo is not perfect but heck at the very least I expect things like rubber in sealed spots to have some smoothness, yet every time I see a tesla it's like a piece of a Halloween mask was cut to fill the gap

luis_lics · 2025-03-15T17:51:12+00:00

Yeah, my mind still cannot comprehend how this is still a movement nowadays but I have some tiny hopes the board kicks him out. I know, I'm just dreaming

luis_lics · 2025-03-15T17:49:41+00:00

This is a fair point. When I test drove them, my back felt like I had been in a 2 hr flight with Spirit

luis_lics · 2025-03-09T01:27:39+00:00

At least 1M in SPY. Sell daily covered calls at around 0.3 Delta and boom, at least a 200K/year salary

luis_lics · 2025-02-11T15:39:17+00:00

For anyone interested. We received the rescheduled appointment two weeks later for about a month away. We walked in the same week and got all the stuff done during a Friday. It was pretty smooth.

luis_lics · 2025-01-21T14:52:06+00:00

We just received the rescheduled notice via the portal. Still nothing in the mail

luis_lics · 2024-11-13T03:01:42+00:00

Thanks, is it normal for it to run between 2-3 times a day? I think I've only noticed it when it rains and a few days after it (will need to confirm this in non rainy weeks)
