you can put your latest rental lease, couple of latest utility bills, bank statements, or anything u want

Hi thank you! Well I was wondering because it already has a section for those things specifically (Evidence about your marriage). 

Hey Everyone! We are getting ready to file our application tomorrow but I had a question: What did you guys attach for "Additional Evidence"? There's a section already for "Evidence about your marriage" for bank statements, Insurance, etc, so I wasn't sure what kinds of things do you put for Additional Evidence or do you even have to put anything there? Thanks!

I just applied on the June 1st via online. Fast and easy. I am not expecting a 4 month process due to their office closing but if this happens, it would be nice 🤩

Congrats, and good luck!

You don't need to send anything if you both have never been married. 

Thank you. I wasn't sure, because normally it would say "IF" somewhere but it doesn't here, it says "AND", so I wasn't sure.

So I have a question about the document checklist. It says one of the documents required if filing due to marriage is: (Highlighted) 

what do you need for this part if you’ve never been married?

Hey Everyone! I didn't see a topic already for June 2020 N-400 Filers so I made one  We will be filing middle of this month!

Thanks! I believe it was the very end of June 2019 (everything is in my timeline I think) and we were at WAC.

Mine hasn't updated yet and I had biometrics last week. Could it be because I did an early walk-in?

We did Biometrics about 3 weeks ago and our online status never changed from Case Received

I don’t believe you can fly internationally with an expired passport. Some countries don’t even let you in if your passport expires within 6 months. 

 

The i-131 allows you to come back to the US before you have your green card in hand. I don’t believe other countries will accept this.

Even with the greencard you need to have a valid passport. They stamped my passport after coming back from an international flight. 

 Hi sorry! Yes, we would be traveling by land not by plane* I forgot to state that originally

Hi (Not sure if this is in the write place, please move if not  )

Does anyone know/have advice for traveling abroad with an expired passport? 

You can not get a renewed passport from Venezuela right now, so my husband's pp is expiring next year and he read that we can use the I-131 as a travel document (only accepted by certain countries) to Mexico and some other countries, and to re enter the US. Does anyone have experience with this? TIA!

Still no updates about fingerprints..is anyone who filled in July and case is in Texas Services Center still waiting?...

When did you fill the case? 

We are at CSC and filed 6/26, still no updates about biometrics. However,  a timeline I follow didn’t do biometrics until right before they were approved like a year later. So it seems like anything goes at this point.

Mine was transferred to Nebraska. They have the longest wait times from what the USCIS site says. Plus, folks are all on the last of their summer holidays. That might mean something too.

How do you find out if it’s transferred?

Any chance that your packet was transferred to the Nebraska office?

Is your case in Nebraska?! 

Mine is.

Our NOA notice said California. If it was transferred since then, we don’t know about it.

Next week will mark 2 months since i sent my package, other than the NOA i didn't receive anything yet.

Anybody in the same boat?

Our NOA was 2 months ago and we haven’t heard/gotten anything else either.

Interesting, thanks. Which service center are you at?

California

Hi Everyone, just wanted to add, we got our NOA1 dated 7 weeks ago and we still haven’t received a biometrics appointment letter or anything else for that matter. Just FYI!

You gave a reason for filing late and you submitted the mandatory evidence.  
 

They said they sent NO evidence.   hopefully they get an RFE

I’m curious did you also have an AOS interview?

1 hour ago, ch3john said:

It would make sense to submit from AOS to ROC since you probably submitted from marriage to AOS. But the instructions for i-751 say from marriage to present, just to be safe we sent from marriage.

Ahh ok ya that makes sense! We’re not quite ready to file so I haven’t read the instructions yet. 

1 hour ago, ch3john said:

It's best to have statements from marriage date to the time you file. I don't think every month is necessary, we did every 3 months. 

Would you do Marriage until filing 751, or from filing of AOS until 751? (just wondering because we already gave them everything at the time of filing AOS, so should people start from scratch or from AOS?)

 29 CFR 2590.701-6  is the official source. I don't see anything about immigration listed. The qualifying events that may be used would be marriage or loss of other health coverage.

Does your husband currently have health care coverage - will he lose it by leaving his country?  If so, go back to HR and ask them what happens if your husband loses his coverage.    

This! I was wondering how this falls because they are already married so that is not the event, but yes, by him coming here he might lose his coverage, and that definitely makes him qualified (this is how I got mine, I quit and lost my coverage so I was added to my husband's outside of open enrollment because that is a qualifying event-However, we had to pay for my premium). Like I said previously, your employer DOES NOT HAVE TO PAY for his premium though. I think maybe whoever you spoke to just isn't aware of how it works with immigration like others said.

I assume each county has their own rules. In the county I applied for marriage license, I could literally put anything there as my new name. First name, middle name, last name, I could change all of them. I have friends who got completely new names after getting married. 

Sure, that's why I said with SSA that you can't do that.
