US Immigration from Colombia

Hey all! I didn't see a thread for November filers yet. Thought I'd start tracking here.

October 30, sent concurrent filing, including I-130, I-485, and I-131

November 1, Electronic notice received from USCIS by text message

November 1, PD Package received at Chicago Lockbox

November 3 - USCIS letter for online access code received

I've applied for N-400, and I am considering stopping paying on a few credit cards. I have had my green card for 9.5 years and I applied for US Citizenship last month. It appears it should take about 7 months. Finances are very tight right now. I have not yet been late on any credit cards (never in the past 9+ years), but I am trying to plan ahead and consider the repurcussions if I were to stop paying on a few credit cards. I recognize this would not be good for my credit, but my one and only concern for this question is my N-400 US Citizenship application. My thought process is perhaps one/any of the examples below could cause a problem for my US Citizenship application under the "moral character" consideration of the application?

1) Can late pays on any of my credit cards on my credit report affect my N-400 Citizenship application?

2) Can Charge-offs on my credit report affect my N-400 Citizenship application?

3) If a creditor or collection agency were to file suit against me for non-payment of credit card debt, could that affect my N-400 Citizenship application?

4) If a creditor or collection agency were to win a judgment against me on a defaulted credit card debt, could that affet my N-400 Citizenship application?

5) Will they ask me anywhere in the process or at Interview if there are any outstanding legal proceedings against me? If a creditor were to file suit against me in the next 7 months, I would have to answer, "Yes." Could that affect my N-400 Citizenship application?

Thank you in advance for your responses.

Hi All - First, thank you to everyone on this site for your support and encouragement. Yesterday, after more than 10 months of waiting, we received our NOA2.

A few questions:

1. How long are visas taking with NVC right now?
2. What tips, if any, do you have for this step in the process?
3. Once in the US, can my fianc travel around the US with me? I d like to introduce him to my parents before we get married.

Thanks!

My Brother has not renewed his green card, for the last 20 years, when I asked him about it, he sayed he lost it, when he stopped working. He lived in the US for 55 Years, and still lives here, he is 78 now. He needs to renew his foreign passport. On the passport application, it states he must have a valid US green card. What can he do, he has the onset of Alzheimer's.

Hi,

We're a little confused as to what the correct step is in the process. My wife has had her permanent residency since February 2019. She's been in the USA since April 2019 and that's when we were married in court. We received a paper saying we can file i751 to remove conditions from her greencard 3 years from the date of her permanent residency issuance. But would we be allowed to just apply for citizenship instead because she's almost been a resident 3 years? Or do we have to get the conditions removed first. Then apply for citizenship? I don't want her green card to expire and cause any trouble. I apologize if this is the wrong forum. And help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
