To clarify for those not familiar with them, Russian passports use both cyrillic and latin characters. Every one I've seen only has the patronymic in cyrillic - it's not present in the latin transliteration. In this instance, it would look something like:
 
Фамлия/Surname: Коган/ Kogan Имя/Given names: Алехандер Петрович/ Alexander  
Unless OP actually has "Alexander Petrovich" printed in latin as his "given names", it shouldn't be for USCIS to decide how to make the transliteration now and suddenly try to add a new middle name at this time.

No. But she only needs a copy of the amended return plus W-2s. The transcript is just nice to have as it's proof you really did file - if it's not available in time, don't worry about it.

I would disagree. The answer should be "no". Right now, OP does not have the necessary documentation. Answer "no" and in the box, explain that necessary vaccinations will be completed at or before the medical.

Yeah - at $455 to replace a lost green card, you can afford to be fined 4 times for not carrying it and still work out cheaper.

This. I was waiting a year for mine to arrive. After contacting the ombudsman, it started moving about a month later. 

LOL. "free" America is called Canada - especially if you like to apologise.
 

Still nothing after one year, so I submitted a request for case assistance to the CIS Ombudsman. I can't really tell if that helped - they didn't provide any useful feedback except to say that they'd contact USCIS on my behalf and a few weeks later said that USCIS had reached a decision. I like to think their involvement helped, but who knows what's going on behind the scenes? Either way, I can finally update with:
 
March 10 - card is being produced
March 13 - card is in the mail
March 15 - notification from USPS that a package is heading my way (never got tracking details from USCIS - just through my.usps.com)
March 16 - card arrived!
 
That's a total of 426 days from POE!

Assuming you're 18-64, you only need Tdap, MMR, and varicella (if you never had chickenpox). Check the table at the bottom of the CDC's technical guide for age-specific requirements.

Wow! Another 14 months later and I just received another notification email from USCIS telling me that "On March 16, 2017, the Post Office delivered your new card". I'm glad to see they're still on the ball.

Find yourself a new lawyer. Or don't bother with one at all. It doesn't matter when you apply. Things get easier if you've already been married for two years once your visa is approved and you actually move to the US - not when you start applying. You can apply now and move south after August (probably well after August - processing time is around 12-14 months) and still get an unconditional 10 year green card.

Good   It will stop a lot of immigration silliness that is going on now. 

They never stamp your passport when leaving the US. CBP just relies on information from the airlines. But don't worry about the I-94 - their records are notoriously inaccurate - especially when Canada's involved. There were numerous inconsistencies in my history and it was never mentioned during the visa process nor when I crossed the border. 

A photobooth's probably no good. US passport photos need to be 2x2 inches, not the 35x45 mm you'll get from a booth. The embassy has a page with the photo requirements. https://uk.usembassy.gov/u-s-citizen-services/u-s-passports/how-to-renew-a-passport/photographs/

Ouch! When wife and I moved from Europe to Canada 6 years ago, we literally arrived at the airport with a letter from her employer to CBSA stating that she's been transferred, please give her a work permit. And they did. And even gave me one too as her spouse.
When it came to moving south, though, even with 8 months notice, there was no way I could get a visa in time to go with her. It would have been easier for us both to move if she wasn't a US citizen - L-1/L-2 processing time is peanuts compared to IR-1.

H.R.38 - Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017. Passed in congress, but still needs to get through the senate. Would allow anyone who can carry concealed in their home state to do so in any other state.

I'm not sure how many times I have posted this recently...K-3 questions seem to come in waves.
 
Current USCIS policy is to adjudicate an I-129F for a spouse with the I-130.
Current NVC policy is that if an approved I-130 arrives before or at the same time as an approved I-129F, then the I-129F is administratively closed.
Using the 2 policies above creates a situation in which almost all K-3 processes are stopped at either USCIS (when the I-130 is approved, sometimes they deny the I-129F outright as "benefit obtained via another means") or NVC (via administratively closing it).
 
Is there a non-zero chance of getting a K-3 through? Yes. But it's like playing the lottery with a prize that may only slightly be better for some individuals (K-3 has most of the disadvantages of a K-1, including the extra fees and forms for AOS).
 
K-3 exists on the books because it was created via law and can only be removed when the law is changed or repealed. USCIS and DOS cannot remove it until then, but they can (and have) made it so it's not a viable path in almost all situations.

OP is on an IR-1/CR-1, so won't have an I-94. On arrival in the US, the stamped visa serves as a temporary green card for one year. Oregon DMV should accept that as proof of permanent residence and issue a licence with standard expiration. Oregon also requires SSN (or proof of ineligibility) for a license.
