I'm going overseas for work, but my wife green card adjustment of status is coming up. We just want to know if this will cause any issues with regards of me having to sign anything of being the sponsor?

She wants to know changing her last name before the adjustment of status will have any impact regarding her social security card.

You have to sign I-864 and if you move overseas, I-865.

 

You will also have to attend the I-485 interview in person.

 

if you are not be living with her, she will not be eligible for I-485 approval.

 1. Does she have an SSN now?

 

2. How is she adjusting from K-1 if she was your wife before she entered the U.S.?

It's a Green card renewal and removal of condition. I'm not moving to live overseas, I am doing a OCONUS federal contract work. It's only for a year. She is living at my current residence that I've reside in and also my daughter is now a U.S Citizen. There has to be some exceptions when it comes to work related. Yes, she has a SSN. We didn't do K-1 Visa, we got married in her country and she got her visa and moved her.

Yeah that is moving to live overseas for a year. You will have to attend the I-751 interview and before that file I-865 to show your change of address.

I don't know if you're not understanding I'm not move to live overseas, and won't have a change of address. I will still have my home address as my residence. It's a military base. All I will have is a PO box not actual address. I was deployed before in the U.S Army, still paid state taxes and didn't change of address.

I think you are not understanding that where you sleep most of time matters?

That link is about your spouse naturalizing. While I would think that if she wants to naturalize under section 319(b) of INA, you would want to make it clear you are living abroad for a 319(b) conforming employer, this is is not the topic of your OP.

 

Unless you really mean naturalization and removal of conditions.

Best to change her name during N-400.

Or it was good during AOS.

But not ideal when she's about to gk through ROC.

It's a defense contract, and return home based on the contract when it ends. I'm not changing my home address. I'm sure I am not the only had the same/similar situation or military people get deployed during green card renewal and ROC. I'm trying to figure what to do because I get deployed next week.

So only you, the USC is getting deployed? If yes, then just get started now on I-751 (make sure it's the latest edition of the form), and have wife compile the rest of the evidence by the time the deadline to send in the form in comes. You can pre-sign the completed form. She'll include your contract in the evidence alongside the other required evidence - drivers license, bank statements, utility bills, childcare/doctor notes listing both of you as parents of the child...

 I think you need to file I-865 within 30 days of deployment. But let’s move on …

 

When your wife’s 90 day window for filing I-751 is reached, you can download the form, print the pages you are supposed to sign, sign those pages, and then scan the signed pages and email / e-message them to your wife. She then prints those.

This page seems helpful and relevant to your situation.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed
