Luckily the government is more disconnected than you think. USCIS does NOT have your tax transcripts nor would they ask the IRS for them, hence if they ask for them they ask the applicant...
don't want to? Not really how this works, there are rules and regulations, arbitrarily "not wanting" to grant an immigration benefit is not really a thing with USCIS
I mean obviously the fact that they were sent to secondary where they specifically stated they wouldn't adjust & THEN applied for adjustment, anyway, is a rather relevant point of fact & not applicable to OP's situation AT ALL....
It's USCIS' policy NOT to deny an adjustment of an IR of a USC based solely on intent so no need to prove intent. It was decided at POE that he didn't have intent, otherwise he wouldn't have been allowed entry.
He was being serious and the threats are a tactic to draw out dishonest people. You're not dishonest so you're fine.
Don't read anything into how he talked to you. It was an act.
8 months' overstay is a 3-year ban. But the ban being over doesn't mean a guarantee of getting a visa. Indeed she may never receive another non-immigrant visa with her history.
No, the court can only force a decision. The court doesn't approve or deny. The court issues an order to the DoS to render a decision. The DoS then obeys. The decision can be denial, it's up to DoS.
This is routine, I was also told this at my N-400 (not combo) interview. Often they have to get a supervisor to check everything before they can approve.
I don't understand #1. How can an EO overwrite the Constitution? Doesn't the Constitution state whoever is born in the US and is subject to its jurisdiction, is born a US citizen?
Your husband ultimately has to prove to Immigration Court that his first marriage wasn't fraudulent and USCIS denied his applications based on his first marriage in error. Without this, the new application based on the 2nd marriage is bound to be denied.
There's nothing unusual about this set up, in fact, it's good evidence that she contributes to a joint account which is then used to pay bills! Prove this with documents. Prove it happens every month!
USCIS is fine with it if you re-file. There's no deadline on filing an I-485 after K-1/K-2 entry & marriage (although ideally one does it sooner rather than later).
While the 90-day period expired, a spouse of a USC can file for AOS even with an overstay.
