  1. Why would you send a second one? Several people, including me, told you to wait. It still hasn't even been that long. You're making it so much harder than it needs to be. You can't handle US immigration like this, or you'll drive yourself mad. Every part of this journey is slooow.
  2. It's only been 8 business days, give them at least two weeks to cash the check. If rejected, you just resend it after fixing whatever the issue is.
  3. Payment amount incorrect is usually a generic thing all reject letters state along with the actual issue. I for instance had an issue printing the form and it ended up cut off at the bottom without me noticing, and my rejection letter also stated payment amount incorrect along with "outdated form" or similar wording because the form was messed up. Nothing wrong with my payment. I sent back the same stuff but with a new printed form and the i-765 was accepted just fine. If you can't find anything wrong with your filing, resend it and include printouts from USCIS' website and highlight the part where it says i-765 fee is waived when filed together with a i-485. Also include a copy of the i-485 receipt notice.
  4. Personally, I brought my USC husband's passport and birth certificate. I also brought the interview letter, my greencard, driver license, all of my passports (two expired and one valid), a few more docs proving a bonafide marriage (3 year rule) and the entire tax return that we had filed just a couple of days prior (no transcript available yet). Before the interview started, the IO wanted to see my ID/DL, my greencard and two of my three passports (the valid/newest and the oldest with the K-1 visa in it). After the interview she scanned my tax return into their system. So in my case nothing was needed from my husband, and no extra evidence either (I had already uploaded a ton in my online account and been through ROC a year prior, so that probably helped). If you owe taxes from previous years, make sure to bring your payment plan. We didn't owe but I have seen others having issues for forgetting to bring it.
  5. A fee increase is one thing, it's expected. But to go from a free EAD and AP to have to pay over $600 each, that's huge. A massive change.
  6. Doesn't matter. USCIS likes to see the same address on the tax return, so you can send both your and your spouse's separately filed return transcripts instead of one jointly filed. That shows you reside at the same address.
  7. They seem to have many different ways of saying that your card is in the works of being shipped out. In my case, the very first status was "card is being produced", a day or two later it changed to "case was approved" and yet a few days later it changed to "card was mailed to me". Maybe you just missed the first status about your card being produced, sometimes the status updates quickly right after each other within a minute even.
  8. There were several parts I couldn't figure out, the IO just changed them as she saw fit at the time of the interview. No biggie.
  9. Probably because they have no way of collecting the fee afterwards, if they do call you for a bio appointment.
  10. No need to overthink anything, just scan your docs and upload them. If they have any questions they will ask you at the interview. Likely they won't care about your evidence at al since you already sent a lot with your ROC. Just upload a few docs, you can bring more to the interview if you want to.
  11. So jealous, I would LOVE to have my own bedroom so I could get better sleep. 😭 Having a whole queen size bed to yourself is what dreams are made of.
  12. Everyone I know that had travels scheduled after the interview, let the IO know at the time of the interview, so they wouldn't be called for an oath until they were back in the US again.
  13. What do you mean by "during her stay here"? You make it sound like she has no plans on moving to the US, only staying briefly?
  14. Legally she cannot work without having both SSN and a document allowing her to work (EAD in her case). My husband was self-employed and mostly working from home when I moved here and obviously I helped him with his work instead of just sitting around. Would've been super awkward staying in bed all day while he was working hard in the next room. 🤣
