US Immigration from Slovenia

I HAVE TWO QUESTIONS CLOSELY RELATED TO EACH OTHER; I'LL START WITH A BRIEF SUMMERY OF MY SITUATION.

IN THE BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER I HAD MY INTERVIEW FOR NATURALIZATION IN SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA; THE INTERVIEW WENT WELL AND THE INTERVIEWER TOLD ME AFTERWARDS THAT SHE WILL APROVE ME; A MONTH LATER ON 2. OF DECEMBER I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM USCIS STATING THAT MY CASE HAS BEEN UPDATED; I LOGGED INTO MY USCIS ACCOUNT AND SAW THERE THE "CANCELATION NOTICE FOR REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE"; A FEW DAYS LATER I RECEIVED A PHYSICAL LETTER FROM USCIS DATED 5. OF DECEMBER STATING THAT THEY DO NEED AN ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE AND IF THAT EVIDENCE ISN'T RECEIVED BY 2. OF JANUARY MY APPLICATION WILL BE DENIED. I AGAIN LOGGED INTO MY USCIS ACCOUNT BUT EVERYTHING THERE LOOKED JUST AS BEFORE - THE CANCELATION NOTICE AND NOTHING ELSE. I HAVE CALLED USCIS AND SPOKE TO 3 "TEER 1" AGENTS AND 1 "TEER 1" SUPERVISER; ALL OF THEM HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THE PHYSICAL LETTER AND ONLY SAW IN THEIR SYSTEM WHAT I CAN SEE IN MY ONLINE ACCOUNT; THEY ALL CONFIRMED THE CANCALATION BUT COULD NOT HELP ME WITH THE LETTER; THEY ESCALATED THE CASE TO TEER 2 AGENT THAT CANNOT BE REACHED DIRECTLY AND I AM AWAITING HIS OR HER CALL NOW, LEFT WITH ONLY 2 WEEKS TO GET UPLOAD THE POSSIBLY NECESSARY EVIDENCE.

HERE ARE MY QUESTIONS:

1. SHOULD I REACT TO THE PHYSICAL LETTER AND SEND THE USCIS WHAT THEY ARE REQUESTING OR SHOULD I IGNORE IT SINCE THEIR OWN AGENTS ARE TELLING ME THAT ACCORDING TO THEIR SYSTEM I DON'T NEED TO SEND ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION?

2. THE EVIDENCE THE USCIS IS REQUESTING ARE MY TAX FILES OR IF I BELIEVE THAT I AM EXCUSED FROM FILING TAXES THEY WOULD LIKE MY EXPLANATION AND DOCUMENTS THAT WOULD SUPPORT MY EXCUSE FROM FILING; MY TAX SITUATION IS AS FOLLOWING: I HAVE NEVER FILED TAXES AS I HAVE NEVER HAD A PAID JOB SINCE I MOVED TO THE USA; I AM GETTING MONTHLY WIRE TRASNFERS FROM MY FATHER AS A GIFT SINCE I MOVED TO THE USA; THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THE MONEY I RECEIVED FOR ANY OF THE YEARS IN QUESTION IS NEVER MORE THAN 16000 $ (I LIVE IN CALIFORNIA). BASED ON MY INCOME I DON'T COME ANYWHERE NEAR CLOSE TO THE AMOUNT NECESSARY FOR FILING; IF I WILL RESPOND TO THEIR LETTER I AM PLANNING TO SEND THEM BANK STATEMENTS FOR THE YEARS IN QUESTIONS SHOWING THE TRANSFERS FROM MY FATHER. DO YOU THINK THAT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT OR DO YOU THINK I DON'T NEED TO SEND MY BANK STATEMENTS AND A SIMPLE EXPLANATION WHY I AM NOT FILING SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT?

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE ADVICES.

Me and my wife (a US citizen) are at the finish line of filing the form I-130, but a section of the I-130a is bugging me. We are filing from my home country as she is currently living here with me, and will go through consular processing.

Under address history, I am unsure whether to add the address I was staying at when visiting my then girlfriend in 2022/2023.

I came there on a B2 visa, and stayed with her for 4 months in 2022 and then also 4 months in 2023. During my stay, I mostly stayed at her apartment near her college, and also spent some time with her at her Dad's house.

Would this address count as my physical address, even though I never had it as a mailing address, on any official documents, as well as not being on a lease or paying rent. Through all this time my official and mailing address was my home back in Slovenia.

I do not want to ommit the address if it should be there, but I'm also worried about putting it in so that it wouldn't look bad (i was there legally, but having an "address" while there on a tourist vise sounds like it could look bad)

Is it better to just add the address to be safe? We mention my stay there many times throughout the application, as well as images, so it's not like we're hiding it.

Hi everyone!

We built website link removed for I-129F and we are thinking of building it for I-130 as well.

We are aware of the IOE service center and it seems that the vast majority of cases are filed there. Is that correct?
Are there any other high volume Service Centers that process I-130 cases that we should include?

We would appreciate any useful information, including receipt numbers examples if you are willing to share of DM them.

Thanks!!

Hello, I was wondering if anyone has had the same issue:

My husband (IR1 Visa) applied for a social security card in person a few days after arriving in the U.S. It has now been 4 weeks and nothing.

The office had said that he needed verification with DHS because he wasnt in the system yet but that it shouldnt take more than 2 weeks.

According to the SAVE website, the status is still under review and when I contacted USCIS, all they said is that they can make us an appointment to go into a field office, but it can take weeks just to get an appointment.

My husband needs to get a State ID ASAP, and we need the social security card for that.

We completed our IR1 interview on Tuesday and the embassy approved our case but said they were still waiting for the medical results to be uploaded into the system. (The doctor had given us an envelope because they said they couldnt get a hold of the embassy?)

A couple days ago, the doctor sent an email that the embassy had given them the wrong code initially so now they need a signed consent form and another photo in order to send our results electonically.

Im assuming its pretty fast to send it electronically to the embassy? The medical exam was over 2 weeks ago so they have all the results.

We are planning to move in 1 month so I hope it doesnt take another week for the results to upload.
