If you have exceptional circumstances, the consulate might allow you to process a new I-130 and visa through them. You should contact them. That will take a few months. Otherwise, you have to start from scratch through USCIS...it will take about 18 months.

There is a mega-thread on that.

Makes no sense at all. They would have no grounds to deny entry.

No, CBP will NOT deny entry if you have legal status....as evidenced by an expired 2 year GC and valid extension letter. You are overthinking this whole thing. You are as much a legal resident as you were before the I-751 was approved.

Did you get a new passport?

You are a legal resident. Until you receive the 10 year card, your expired Green Card and extension letter are still evidence of that status. Enjoy the trip.

Yes.

There are plenty of source which state divorces filed and decreed in the US are recognized by the Philippines.

It might be in her best interests to file for divorce from the US. The divorce would be legal in the US and Philippines.

I would convert them to pdf....

Take a look at these forms. My wife has foreign investments and income every year in a pension, interest, dividends, Insurance certificates, etc. These forms are part of our tax return every year created by our CPA (who has been doing our taxes for 7 years): 1040 1040 Schedule B Form 8938 Form 1116 FBAR

I guess that is some new provision....very odd. It was required when she submitted (Aug 2023).

What is this "General Provision"? Must be new.

I just checked the completed copy of wife's N-400: My Wife filed under the 5 year rule..... Part 10 can be skipped only if you are not married and have never been married. Part 10: 4. If you are married now, provide the following information about your current spouse

Here is what we sent in March of 2019....Approved after 44 months (December 2022). USCIS never ceases to amaze me with their inconsistent practices. Cover Letter Copies of: Apartment lease with both our names & signatures Joint bank checking acct statements since wife's arrival in June 2017. Deed for new home with both our names Mortgage Lender Letter with both our names. Credit Cards showing both on joint account with same card number. Amazon delivery label showing both names and our current address. Wife's Military Dependent ID card showing me as the sponsor. Tricare Health Care Eligibility Letter showing both of us together. Military pay statement showing wife as my benefic. Texas Health Care Directives appointing each other as sole health care proxy(Advanced Directives) Our Texas driver's licenses with same address for both of us 2018 Joint Tax ReturnTax Returns Pictures of us on special occasions here in the US. Car Insurance Cards showing both of us as insured drivers for our car Boarding Passes for Las Vegas Valentine Day Trip 2019 Utility application showing both our names for our current address

Current spouse info is in Part 10 Information About Your Marital History

Congratulations!!! Citizenship will be a breeze. The end is almost in your grasp.

Apply For U.S. Citizenship While Your I-751 Is Pending (cummingslawpractice.com) " Suppose you have submitted Form I-751 with the USCIS, you have yet to receive approval of the application, and you are still waiting on your physical 10-year green card. In that case, you may still be eligible to pursue the Naturalization process by submitting Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, even while your I-751 application is still undergoing processing. However, it is essential to remember that the USCIS will not approve your Form N-400 without first approving your Form I-751."

An I-751 must be approved before or at the same time as an N-400 can be approved. Sounds like an update glitch in their system....or USCIS royally messed up. The USCIS Policy Manual states: Chapter 3 - Petition to Remove Conditions on Residence | USCIS " If the CPR has a pending Form N-400, USCIS adjudicates the Form I-751 before or at the same time as the Form N-400."

We took I-751 evidence from time of filing I-751 until interview date. Looks like you have that covered.

You can upload a letter to request a combo interview if you want. Some of us have done that with positive results. In my case, our local office informed me only 2 days before wife's N-400 interview that it would be a combo. Good luck.

Just remember that you must meet either during or AFTER the Utah zoom marriage before filing an I-130.

Wife's came as page 2 of the receipt.
