Don't worry. Happened to my wife. They "lost" her biometrics. Go in, get your biometrics, and within a week you should see your new GC in the mail.

I would not let the interview start untill you first bring up this issue with the consular officer. I think you have to start that you will tell the truth and that the contents of the DS-260 are true. Before you sware, or even when you check in, I would consult with someone at the embassy. You may get away with it now, but when you want to naturalize you will be caught. And then, you'll be hit with misrepresentation and your LPR status would be in jeopardy.

I would fire your attorney. The question isn't just asking if you were arrested. It is asking if you also had any convictions. You must answer yes. You were convicted of a crime. Speeding is a crime. It's typically a class C misdemeanor, which is a crime. And because you paid the ticket and didn't fight it, that results in a conviction. During the interview, you can discuss. But, in the DS-260, select yes, describe the charge such as "Speeding 55 in 45, Class C Misdemeanor, Charged on: Date, Convicted/Plead Guilty No Contest: Date".

Put whatever is after the main URL. For example, www.facebook.com/username

Since a caution is not a conviction, the only item you need to sincerely and truthfully answer about your incident is whether your arrest was because you caused serious damage to property or serious harm to a person. If your actions that got you arrested resulted in neither , then I don't know why people here are saying this could be misrep.

Usually, USCIS publishes notices on your account for you to open and view along with the mailed version.

We told a story of our relationship using several pictures and descriptions in chronological order. we also included receipts. Overall, I feel this helped. However, use your discretion on what to use.

Thank you!

Hi, I helped my father in law with his DS-160. There is a security question we weren't sure of that we ended up answering yes to which pertained "specialized weapons training". My FIL worked in the national police of his country as a patrolling officer/police agent. He actually took a course on hand weapon use at the US embassy in his country as part of some kind of police training thing. Anyway, it seemed like an exaggeration to consider this "specialized weapons training" but we decided to mark yes and have him explain than to mark no and there be an issue. Was this the right approach?

Thank you!

Hi, My MIL filled out her DS-160 two years ago. Back then, my wife hadn't immigrated yet so on the question regarding listing all family members that live in the US, she listed me only. My wife now is an IR1 GC holder as of last year. This, not sure if we need to update the DS-160 to reflect this? Further, she listed my prior address as the address she'd travel to stay at. Obviously, the embassy will know my wife and I don't live there anymore. Her application was signed with true facts as of the date signed. But, those facts are now outdated. We called, and they said if we update now, it will take 3-5 days to process and she will need to reschedule. They didn't advise on any next step, which is frustrating. Any help would be much appreciated!

They probably didn't have good prints and need to retake them. Once you go to the biometrics appointment, two weeks later you'll get the GC.

Curious to know if Biden decides to cancel loans, for qualified LPRs with a Plus Loan, would that lead to an issue with public charge or prohibit citizenship?

There is absolutely no impact to your spouse's visa as a result of you enrolling in Obamacare/subsidized healthcare and is not considered a means tested benefit that fits under the public charge rule. UNLESS you get cash (somehow?) from it.

This is why it's hard on people actually coming to visit to get a B1/B2 visa. This behavior of, "coming for a better life" does not allow someone to violate US immigration law. He has committed a crime by using his visitor visa to study and to work. The consequence is cancellation of his visa and no longer qualifying for a non-immigrant visa. He can absolutely see his daughter, and not leave her behind, BY GOING BACK! If someday you'd like to marry, you can petition for him. But in the mean time, he needs to exit before he is banned and making it that much more difficult to qualify for an immigrant visa.
