US Immigration from Australia

I applied for our K1 visa in September of 2020, and we have a received date of 9/28/2020 and an official receipt date of 10/01/2020. I submitted an outside normal processing time request once our case hit the window listed on the USCIS site, and they sent a confirmation of the request that told me to expect an response by June 17. It's now the 21st, and I haven't received a response or update to my case yet. Any ideas of what I can do to follow up on this?

I am preparing my wife s I-751 packet. We need to send it in about a week. We had thought it would be very quick to prepare because it doesn t require another Affidavit of Support, but it s a lot more work than we thought! We saw some RfEs on this forum today that definitely showed us the importance of preparing this package well.

Our current situation:

• We don t have kids yet.
• For nearly the first year of our marriage, we didn t have a home of our own and didn t have utility bills. We were staying at my parents condo officially while we were looking for a house, then having our house built. During the last 3 months that our house was being built, we rented from friends during the workweek (it was not a formal lease) and stayed at the condo on the weekends.
• Several of our utilities now are paid through our HOA and not separate bills. Our HOA s directory lists both of us as living at our house. None of our utility bills have my wife s name on them. I ve asked these companies today if they can change this.
• My wife s name is on the contract and title of our house, but not our mortgage. We had thought that her lack of credit history in the US would impact our interest rate.
• We have 2 affidavits from people we know and will hopefully get at least one more.
• We filed our taxes separately in 2018 (we got married that December) but jointly in 2019 and 2020.
• In general, we are beneficiaries on each others benefits at work, but we don t share any medical insurance policies because it would cost us more this way (due to how these policies are set up with our employers). We do have the same doctor and dentist and try to get back-to-back appointments where we can. And we do have the same car insurance policy.
• We have had a lot less travel, going out, and photos than we had anticipated before the pandemic.
• Only one of our bank accounts is truly set up as a joint account. About 6 months after we got married, I set up my other accounts to transfer on my death to my wife. Her name has been on these accounts statements since then, but the accounts are individual. We use one Mint account to keep track of all of our bank accounts. My wife s paychecks get deposited to the joint account, and mine get deposited to my checking account since that account is used to pay our mortgage.
• My wife does not have a credit card in the US. She has one back in Singapore (her country of birth and citizenship; she lived in Australia when she met me) and uses my card for her online purchases. I think she is an authorized user of my card according to our bank, but I d need to double check. Only my name is on these statements.

In light of all this, I have been thinking about different sources of evidence we could also provide:

• Receipts (with both of our names) for furniture for our house
• Receipts for online purchases that both of us have made (showing that we live at the same place)
• Other bills that show both of our names and address

Given the information above, I have several questions about proving our joint financial assets:

1. Do I need to send USCIS the bank statements for my individual bank accounts too, or only the joint account?

2. Do we need to include each month s statements for my credit card? (If so: the bank provides a Summary of Charges document each year which shows all of our transactions with the card for the year and would save a lot of paper. Could I send that in instead, to cover as much of the time since we got married as possible?)

3. Where the VisaJourney I-751 sample refers to a copy of the title of our house, which document is that? Is this the same thing as a title deed (in our case, a several-page document on legal-sized paper) or a one-page certificate of title (which I m not sure if we have or even can get in the time we have)?

4. I have a similar question about the title of the car in both of our names. I haven t found a certificate of title or it yet, just our registration, which has both of our names on it. May I just send in a copy of the registration?

5. Is there anything else about our current situation that we should be aware of as I prepare the packet? Any other ideas or advice?

Hello, Has anyone has anyone filed there N-400 online? And submitted the G-1450 form with it ?

Hi everyone
Bit of a newbie here. I m wondering if a traffic conviction (driving with a suspended licence - unpaid fines) will cause me any issues for my K1 interview in Sydney. Ive retrieved the copy of the prosecution notice and court transcript and it shows that the suspension was fine related. I had no idea i had an unpaid fine and that it had led to my license being suspended. Now, my police certificate shows that i have a criminal offence.

I've just been set an interview date in a month, so I want to anticipate any issues beforehand, so any help would be appreciated.

I started my N400 application online yesterday on my Mac, using Chrome. All went well until the LAST piece of evidence I tried uploading just sat spinning and not completing....and it's been downhill ever since. I have tried using Chrome, Internet Explorer, Edge, Safari, two different computers, had to delete the original application after it told me it could not retrieve it, have started a dozen times over (deleting the previous stalled attempts to "start fresh") and get to different points in the form (all fairly early on) and it will tell me it couldn't save or could not retrieve it or just shows a blank page instead of form questions...I'm losing my mind!!

Is anyone else trying to apply online and experiencing this hell? I have to assume it's an issue on the USCIS site, but I feel like my whole account is just glitch-riddled now and simply logging in means setting myself up for failure! If anyone has any ideas on how I might outsmart the glitches, I'm all ears! *Please please please don't make me go back to doing a paper application!!*
