You’ll receive it eventually but keep in mind the pandemic has slowed down several government agencies. 

It wouldn’t be a problem with your prior marriages because you were the petitioner for the last marriage which the i130 was approved. It would only be a problem if you were the beneficiary from the last one and the beneficiary now. Don’t worry. 

Well, my dad went to multiple hearings which took about three years. Keep in mind it is immigration court which sets the date for you . After the final court hearing (three years later)it took about 3weeks to receive the cancellation of removal order letter in the mail.  

Lawyer is right. You’re currently in removal proceedings and USCIS does not have jurisdiction over i485 application if you file. You have to wait until the immigration judge terminates your removal order. I know because my dad was in similar situation. You have a long battle ahead of you.

You don’t have to be confused. A friend of mine had similar situation for his AOS interview. This is actually a second interview which is going to be a stoke interview. Keep in mind the field offices now have Department of Homeland Security officers also conducting interviews for i485 since they’re short of regular USCIS officers.

I wish i could. Unfortunately i am kinda out of luck with the moving, House is sold and handing over the keys this week the offer was too good not to accept the sale. Just dont know how to best update everything. I have mail forwarding and i hear that notices get forwarded but the physical cards dont.. but ya i just guess i need to update them this week and hope for the best???!?

Ask the new buyer to hold all your mail. Do not update your address yet until after you receive the green card from the new buyer. Attempting to update your address now could delay things.

Send them a copy of your brother’s birth certificate and your birth certificate which should have the same name for parents. 

Go to whichever clinic that conducted your i693 medical exam and request a copy. If you initially went to one of the clinics recommended by USCIS then the clinic would understand. They shouldn’t charge you to reprint copies. Never go to USCIS interview empty handed and most of it all blame USCIS for screwing up. 

Hello, I filed an i130 for my father who is already in the U.S.A. for the past 20 years on an overstayed visa. He has an upcoming interview for i485. My question is that 1) what should he expect to be asked? 2) what documents should he gather for the interview? 

Put whatever exactly the name of the city as it states on your birth certificate. When it comes to immigration you need to be consistent with your information. Now when you go to the interview and there is a question raised about non existent city. That is when you explain that the city’s name has changed. 

Infopass will not solve your question. The fact that you applied for n400/citizenship overrides the i751. Meaning you’ll never receive a 10year green card. Just wait for USCIS to send you update about the n400 interview. I did the same thing you are doing now and I’m now a us citizen. I never received a 10year green card. 

He should be fine. they don’t check id’s to enter the building. 

It is when USCIS first received your application and accepted to process your application. Priority Date places you in line with other applications so that any application that comes after the time and date yours was accepted would be also given a priority date after yours. With that said, since your priority date is 07 November 2014, if you should get an RFE your application is placed on hold and USCIS would work on other applications until USCIS receive you RFE. Basically, it places you in line.

the best advice is what tomyka81 gave you.

A bachelor degree in chemistry would not take you far in America in the modern world. Look for entry level teaching jobs in high schools. Even with that most of the school districts in America require a teaching license. So you may search for teaching aide jobs. Being an Aide does not require a license. Once you are hired as an Aide you can then build upon your resume and perhaps further your education in Pharmacy or something within STEM.

How is he going to send you back? Is he going to put you in a suitcase or what?

Of course not. Once you have your green card nobody can take it away from you. Even if he rip it apart and throw it away, you may walk to any USCIS office with an I.D. and you will issued a new one. Once in the the system you are good forever.

If this is someone you really want to spend you life with then it makes sense financially to take care of adjustment of status before anything else. If he entered the U.S with a visa and overstayed then DACA really don't do for him. Trust me I went through the same thing he is going through. He is only using DACA to get the work permit which he has to renew every 1 year and 9 months "they claim its 2 years but must be renew months before it expires. Obtaining a green card before he graduates would put him on a platform to apply for paid internships and lead to better jobs. Without a green card he has to pay out of pocket for tuition, and most student loans request for green card or U.S. citizenship.
