US Immigration from Japan

Has anyone submitted an AOS packet recently and has an idea of roughly how long it takes to hear back? I submitted my packet via FedEx on 3/8 and I haven t heard anything yet. I know it s a waiting game at this point but anyone with experience recently would be great.

I am devastated that after waiting over 3 months for a NOA1, and finally getting a NOA1, my check did not cash. I do not know why. It was an official check from my bank. My account had the funds in it. There is no explanation what so ever I could give for this happening. I am crushed because I cannot apply again, three months ago we were able to prove that we had met within two years and now we cannot. They sent back the application and said we would have to refile. Is there any way possible we could petition this? This is horrible and I could vomit.

Hello! This is my first (of probably many) post. I will be moving back to the US in June, then apply for my (future) husband's green card later in the year. Husband and I are currently together in Tokyo. He is Japanese.

We met in the US in Nov 2017. We officially became a couple in Feb 2019, after I moved to Japan to study.

These are the papers I will gather to prove bonafide marriage. Would all of this be enough proof?

- Translated Marriage Certificate (Will get married in April).

- Extensive text message logs since we met in 2017.

- Photos of us in 2017 and 2019-2021.

- Apartment lease with both our names (lived together from May 2020-May 2021).

- Can provide at least 3 affidavit of relationships (2 from friends, 1 from my mom).

- Can provide itinerary from when we went to meet his family in Fukuoka, Japan in 2019.

Thanks so much

We've filed the I-485 and are waiting for the bio-metric appointment and I'm looking to the taxes for 2020.

She did a stay in the US before on a student/work visa and received a SSN and card that time. The immigration officers took it when she left (this was years ago), however is this SSN still valid? As in when we try to get one issued this time it will be the same?

And can we use this for tax filing purposes this year and not have to deal with the ITIN process?

Thank you in advance!
