  1. Hi Everyone! In case anyone is wondering, my wife completed her citizenship interview and passed! She was also able to do her oath ceremony that same day, just a couple of hours after the interview. As much as we wanted some friends and family around to see it, we figured we should just get it done and over with. The officer explained to us that her son does, in fact, have citizenship now. Soon, we will apply for their U.S. passports. Eventually I will apply for my stepsons naturalization certificate, but due to the cost of it, we decide to just get the passports first and then get the certificate later. Thank you all for your help!
  2. I just thought of it. What if he happens to be 18 at the time of my wife's oath, but we obviously filed when he was still 16 or 17?
  3. Thank you for the clarification and guidance! You assumed right, that's correct. They both just got their 10 year GC. Thank you for the clarification and guidance!
  4. So you did your spouses N400, and did the I130 for your step son at the same time?
  5. Yes, they have both been here for 4 years now. And yes, she has custody papers, including the paper that states from his biological father granting him permission to travel (of course that was used during the K1 visa era)
  6. Hey everyone, Firsr and foremost, my wife finally got her new green card back, after waiting 18 months for approval! Conditions have been lifted! So now onto the naturalization process... Sorry if this has been asked and repeated before. If my wife decides to become a U.S. citizen, does that mean she will completely lose her Brazilian citizenship? Also, how do we go about getting citizen for her son who is under the age of 18? Is that a different form? Or does he apply on the same N400 form as her? Thank you for your time and help!
  7. Unfortunately no military discounts through immigration.
  8. FINALLY!! While being away for the holidays, wife sent me a picture of the approval notice! No interview needed, and the green card is currently in route with the post office! 18 months waiting, and finally over!
  9. They don't need to know when his enlistment ends in the Marines. USCIS is more concerned about if he's gainfully employed, and makes the criteria of financial support. USCIS knows military get a steady paycheck, so there will be no issues.
  10. I have been stuck since May 28, 2021. I see people who have been stuck with LIN from early May getting approved, so hopefully soon!
  11. So right now, my wife and step-son are in Brazil at the moment. They both have the expired green card and the 24 month extension letter in hand. Should be no issues, correct? From what Ibread no I-551 stamp required. I also sent our marriage certificate to her since her married name isnt on her plane ticket. Plane ticket name matches the passport name.
  12. Never had an issue. My wife and step son always got pre check along with me whenever I booked a flight somewhere.
  13. Sorry for the delay. We got an interview date after 2 weeks receiving the phone call. Normally orders are issued out way in advance before PCS happens, of course there are few cases in between...hopefully it all works out for you in the end. Please keep us updated.
  14. Hey @itsanabanana ! Yes, we mailed out our expedite request directly to our local field office. It took about 2 to 3 weeks and USCIS actually called my wife to set up an interview. Then we received an interview letter in the mail shortly after that. Hopefully soon you will hear about your expedite request! May I ask how long ago you received orders for overseas?
  15. Have you called or emailed your local USCIS office and asked for verification?
  16. During our K-1 process, I waited 6 weeks before emailing the consulate asking about a status. Then the next day they emailed the instructions about how to go about scheduling. I would do the same with your case.
  17. Did you confirm from tracking that it was delivered? These things take time to be received, especially with NOAs.
  18. Yes, I would recommend doing that. I met my wife off facebook and I printed the TOS from there.
