I had my combined N-400 and I-751 interview today in Fairfax, VA. Everything went great - I answered all the civics questions correctly and everything went well with the questions about our relationship etc. She asked me if I wanted to submit any further evidence about our relationship so I gave her 2-3 more months of bank statements from between when we applied and now as a nice extra because I had them with me. She was having some issues with the system on her end and couldn't access our marriage certificate so I gave her the one I had with me and she scanned it. At the end of my interview the interviewer said that I passed the interview and that she was going to approve me (woho!), however, she was not able to put me as "approved" on the piece of paper and had to put that "a decision has yet to be made" until then. She did say that she has to do this until she put everything into the system but I should receive a notice about my oath ceremony and to check my USCIS account because sometimes people get it on there faster. I'm not super familiar with this and I should have asked her at the interview but does this just mean that she's not able to "officially" approve me until she has put the new bank statements and/or the marriage certification on my file or could it have to do with the I-751? Also, should I expect this to take a few days or could it be longer? I'm guessing she was unable to do this due to the issues she was having with the system. I also signed the Oath documents and verified the information that would be used for naturalization. Additionally, do you usually get some type of notice that you were "approved" on your USCIS account? I'm guessing that it might take a few business days for that but just want to have an idea on what to expect. In short - my experience was great but now I'm at home and getting a bit anxious so figured it would be good to ask and see if anyone else is more familiar. Thanks!

Hey all, I am housing (not sponsoring) a ukrainian woman who was approved for U4U in september but arrived in USA on 10/11/2024. From what I am reading, all of the benefits and accommodations that are outlined are very specific to arrivals on or before 9/30/3024. Per https://www.uscis.gov/ukraine... > Effective Nov. 21, 2022, beneficiaries paroled into the United States under Uniting for Ukraine are employment authorized incident to parole. This means that if you are paroled into the United States under Uniting for Ukraine on or before Sept. 30, 2024, USCIS does not need to approve your application for employment authorization before you can work in the United States.... ---> Does this mean that she is not eligible to get employment until an EAD is granted with I-765? Per https://www.dhs.state.il.us/page.aspx?item=164863 >Beginning 05/21/2022, Ukrainian citizens, nationals of Ukraine and other non-Ukrainian individuals began receiving US Humanitarian Parole in two phases with the dates as follows: 02/24/2022 - 09/30/2023 - Initial Parole; and 10/01/2023 - 09/30/2024 - Extension of Parole Individuals paroled into the United States between these dates may be eligible for federal mainstream benefits, including SNAP, Cash and Medical assistance under the Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2022 (AUSAA) if all other financial and non-financial eligibility requirements are met. ---> Does this mean she is not eligible for SNAP and medical insurance? If so, how would she go about getting any benefits? any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Passport expires 4 months after entering the US (k1 visa) |

So I'm moving to the US in less than 2 months but my passport expires 4 months after I have moved (so in around 6 months from today). It sounds like I will need to bring a valid passport for the biometrics appointment later on but what if I don't get the appointment before the passport has expired? Renewing the passport once I'm in the US isn't a good option due to how far away the closest embassy/consulate is and I would prefer to not have to spend extra on flights shortly after moving. So my options are to either apply for an id after I have arrived, or renew the passport before I even move to the US. What would you guys recommend me to do? It's possible to enter the US showing both the old passport and the new passport, right?

My wife is filing for me to get a CR1, and she is not able to financially support me at all, so her brother is stepping in to be my financial sponsor. In 1.a, the basis of filing, does he just refer to himself as a petitioner and brother-in-law? He does not live with her. My wife, as we know, isn't able to be a financial sponsor; does she still need to do a separate I-864? If so, is she still a joint sponsor? Is her brother the sole joint sponsor? What do we cross in this situation? We are so confused.
