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.

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!

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.

Situations change and the unexpected happens. It's stressful and disheartening. I doubt the OP is "playing the system".

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/

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.

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!

It shouldn't affect your eligibility. Again, call them. They can tell you everything you need to know. 1-800-318-2596

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

We're so happy to be free of it! We can use our bank accounts and pay our bills the way we want to now - not the way we think USCIS wants us to. We have, for various reasons, separate health insurance policies, and now, we don't having to worry about explaining it to anyone! My husband can vote, too. No, we don't miss USCIS!

Congratulations!!!

We're among those who followed that advice, and are grateful for it. We didn't think of it at the time my husband applied, but uploaded it later. The letter simply said that he wanted to bring to their attention that he had a pending I-751. We also mentioned it as he was checking in for his N400 interview. He got the combo interview and took the oath that same day!

They do have to approve the I751 first, but they can do it on the day of your N-400 interview. My husband's n-400 interview was scheduled while his I751 was still pending, and the interview letter said nothing about that. We went, together, prepared for a combo interview, just in case. When we arrived, and they were checking him in, we mentioned the pending application. Sure enough, they approved both at once, and my husband's oath was scheduled for that afternoon! What a day it was! We had several hours to wait between the interview and the oath. During that time, his status started updating to tell him that his I751 was approved, his N400 was approved, and that his oath ceremony was scheduled, All this while we waited in Starbucks! I hope it works out that way for you! There's definitely a chance!

My husband sent in his I-751 application in September of 2021. He got the fingerprints reused notification shortly after, and then nothing for almost a year. In September of 2022 he applied for citizenship, and suddenly it all started happening and he became a citizen this past March. At his interview, it seemed like they were just looking at the I-751 for the first time. He did upload a letter alerting to the fact that he had a pending I-751. It did seem like applying for citizenship had an influence.

When my now husband was my fiance, and we lived half a planet away from each other, we made the best of the time apart. We dated, using Google Earth to find destinations where we could "meet" and explore together. We've "travelled" to so many places, together! We had dinner/breakfast dates, wrote a song together. You can play games, and watch movies. You can read books, together.. The "happily ever after" is so worth the wait!

I'm not sure I have this right. You were at address A, then address B for a short time, and then address A again? If so, then address A is the last place you lived before coming to the United States, and that's the address you would use.

That's wonderful! Applying for citizenship did move my husband's case along, too. Best of luck to you, and be prepared for a combo interview!

I'm our family genealogist and this is great advice! If only my ancestors had saved everything....

Congratulations!!!!

Congratulations to your Wife!!!

Congratulations!

After the oath, you're done!!! No more saving bank statements, no more saving utility bills, no more endless printing! The stressful waiting is over! You can move wherever you want, and you can vote! Congratulations!!!

Maybe, autocorrect changed embassy to embarass.

Good! Thanks for updating us and Congratulations!
