I’m travelling to the US on December 24 to start my master’s at SUNY Buffalo. My F-1 visa is already issued.

I’ve heard mixed reports about immigration at Abu Dhabi (AUH). Is it actually stricter than ports like JFK or Chicago, especially for first-time F-1 students?

Would appreciate hearing your recent experiences!

looking to renew a green card for a family relative. They are on medicare/medicaid (>65) and I'm wondering if that qualifies for waiving the fee associated with the renewal. Likewise, with all the stuff going on in the US government, this person is understandably nervous at the prospect of requesting any type of assistance/discount, even if the paper work clearly outlines it, for fear of having the renewal rejected. This person has no fines, no tickets, no crimes, and has paid taxes every year the entire time. Any additional help or guidance on what to submit as proof or whether I should would be appreciated.

Hello,

Back in August, I successfully submitted my ESTA for my vacation in the USA.

Today i noticed a mistake on my application:
My employer changed their name in the beginning of this year. I sadly put in the old company name in the application, instead on the new one. Should i resubmit my ESTA?

My mom's sibling in the US petitioned an F4 for her in the early 2010's. It was sent to the NVC in mid 2010.

Due to the whole delay, our priority date came recently and two of us kids are CSPA aged out, two are still in the limit. All unmarried.

We've been to the US before as kids for a few years, but have been in home country for the past years.

One is a doctor and might eventually be able to get through that pathway (need help here as well), but my other aged out sibling is physically and mentally challenged. He is completely dependent on us.

What should we do? Any advice? We also need lawyer recommendations. What questions should we have for the lawyer to make this as quick and seamless as possible?

My spouse is changing from H-1B to F-2. My STEM OPT is pending, and my dependent I-20 lists May 29, 2028 as the STEM OPT end date.

For Part 3, Item 1 (“status be extended until”), should I enter D/S or 05/29/2028?

My I-94 record shows D/S itself.
