Why did your husband enter "Adjustment of Status" on the I-130 if he submitted the I-130 from Canada? The I-130 is just the first part......everything is is slow, sadly.

and there could be an additional issue. If the petitioner entered Adjustment of Status on the I-130, the he will have to submit an I-829 to move the approved I-130 to NVC (if OP opts for consular processing).

I think the OP is inside the US right now. Clarify: Where are you right now?

OK. Then you submit the I-485, I-131, and I-765. You have to stay inside the US until you receive advance parole. ....else, you will abandon the I-485.

Yes. You submit an I-131 along with the I-485 and I-765.

What did you indicate on the I-130? Consular processing or adjustment of status?

That is correct....until you receive approved advance parole (which will take 3 to 8 months)

If you are returning to Canada, the I-485 is not the proper form. Instead, consular processing would be the correct process.

Are you aware that, once you submit the I-485, you cannot work inside the US or leave the US for up to 6 months or more? Yes, you will receive a receipt notice for the I-485. Note: The I-485 is for applicants who live inside the US.

***Moved to the India regional forum*** This is not a US immigration issue. They must comply with the laws of India.

Be aware that an income tax return shows what was earned in the previous year....not what the taxpayer is currently earning. Good luck.

***Moved to the Philippines regional forum***

Because both can be in the same zip code. This is a non-issue.

You don't need a joint sponsor if your current income is sufficient for your household size. Just be prepared to show the consulate officer evidence of your CURRENT gross income.

***Topica merged***

I had the same issue (not DL). Some mail said Royse City, Texas while other mail said Fate, Texas....same zip code. It wasn't an issue for our I-751.

Not for your physical address.

Not an issue. ***Moved to Removal of Conditions on Residency forum***

Your timeline states: Marriage: 3/11/2018 US Entry: 12/12/2019 That's about 3 months prior to 2 years of marriage.

You were born in Spain......

That list is edited, and it did not come from an official USCIS or DOS source. It appears to have come from an attorney website. There is no requirement, to my knowledge, to provide 12 months of pay stubs.

No, they do not. They have no discretion to do that.

I would not trust that answer from the attorney. With the new administration coming in, I would make sure EVERYTHING is in order for naturalization.

Your entire Green Card history will be reviewed. If you were supposed to remove conditions, you will not be able to naturalize until the I-751 has been adjudicated first.
