  1. Working remotely is still working and does violate the terms of the visa.
  2. Occasionally, we'll hear of a case that's processed surprisingly quickly, but that's not the norm. Four months, in USCIS time, is a short time to wait. I wouldn't be worried at this point.
  3. I wasn't allowed in, either, so I was surprised then Neil came out and told me it was a combo interview. The IO came out with him and said that the one obstacle to her approving the I-751 was that she could see transfers from my personal account into our joint account. I had never sent them anything from my personal account because I thought it was irrelevant. She wanted to see a statement from it before she would approve the ROC. She gave us 15 minutes to do it, and I downloaded it and emailed it to her on my phone! She replied by saying that she'll see us at the oath ceremony in a few hours! It was a hectic 15 minutes, but we chilled at Starbucks until the ceremony. What an exciting day!
  4. To security. They're the first people we saw as we entered the field office. I wanted them to be sure they would let me in, since I wasn't essential for just the N-400 interview.
  5. Thank you! It's good to see you! Best of luck with your wife's N-400! You'll both be so glad when it's over.
  6. My husband included the I-751 receipt with my his N-400 application and uploaded a letter explaining that he had a pending I-751. We also mentioned it as we entered the field office on the day of his Citizenship Interview. It all went pretty smoothly!
  7. We're one of those couples who did a K-1 and would definitely recommend the CR-1. The months my husband was not allowed to work were difficult and AOS was a nuisance we could have avoided.
  8. Situations change and the unexpected happens. It's stressful and disheartening. I doubt the OP is "playing the system".
  9. Adding her to your insurance, or getting her her own policy is essential. There is more to health care than birth control and exams. My husband qualified for insurance through the Marketplace even before his Social Security card arrived. OP, to answer your question, she should qualify for CoveredCA https://www.coveredca.com/learning-center/information-for-immigrants/
  10. You need to include evidence that you're actually living together as a married couple. They want to seen things like joint bank account and credit card statements, both names on insurance policies, and anything else that documents your lives together. Photos aren't enough, and are not great evidence, anyway.
  11. You can get your transcripts here: https://www.irs.gov/individuals/get-transcript
  12. Bank of America was easy! All my husband needed was his passport and we opened a joint account. He had his own debit card and everything!
  13. It shouldn't affect your eligibility. Again, call them. They can tell you everything you need to know. 1-800-318-2596
  14. When my then fiance arrived, I was getting my insurance through the marketplace. We got married and he was able to get a policy there, too, even though he was still waiting for his social security card to arrive. Some states have their own rules. In NJ, we go through getcoveredNJ rather than healthcare.gov. The best thing you can do is call the number on healthcare.gov's website and speak with an agent. They're very accessible and helpful and will tell you how to apply in your state
