US Immigration from Canada

Hi everyone,

We submitted the AOS and did the wet ink for the signature. We typed the date though next to the signature. Is this going to pose a problem? Or are they looking for a hand written date as well?? Im panicking! Thanks

Hi. Do I understand correctly that a green card holder has to wait 5 years, or 3 years if marriage to a us citizen?

Also, as I am now in the i751 rfe state, and hoping i will get approved , does the green card date mean the date when my first conditional green card was issued, or, in the event I get my conditions removed, will it be this new approval date? (I.e. when would my 3 year time frame start?)

Thanks.

I had my interview at the Montreal Consulate Friday May 13th. My interview was short. The officer didn t come right out and say I was approved, but she did say my application looked great and gave me a paper on how to track my passport. I asked if I was approved and all she said is the computer system is old and slow and to check my status on line. I checked my status on the CEAC status tracked website and my status went from READY to ISSUED; however, in the box below it reads: Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. As the officer told you in the interview, if further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved when administrative processing is finished, you will receive notification to collect the passport with the visa from the Loomis branch you selected when you booked your appointment.

Has this happened to anyone else and if so what was the outcome. I am so confused.

Thank you.

I'm getting frustrated waiting for my AOS approval and just want to assure that I am not realizing something that everyone else here is. Do people really NOT work for those 6-9 months it takes for your AOS to be approved? I applied for my EAD with my AOS in December 2021 and it says the case is pending.

So how do you spend your days? Legit question. I have tons of hobbies but not being able to work and not being able to go back home (since I don't have my advance parole) is very frustrating. Seems like a silly question, I know I know. I've waited months to ask it for that very reason.

Hi,

I wanted to double check with y'all to make sure I understand clearly.

I crossed the border on a IR1 (spouse of US citizen) on December 15 2020. I know that I need to wait 3 years (living in the USA) in order to apply for citizenship. I also understand that we need to send our application 90 days before our anniversary.

So if I'm correct, on December 15, 2023, it would make 3 years since I crossed the border, making me eligible for applying for citizenship.

So, 90 days before December 15,2023, which would be September 15, 2023, would make me eligible to send in my application ?

Do I understand this correctly ?

Thanks for y'all help.
