Incorrect. That's a VJ glitch which is WHY I elaborated IN my timeline. 14 days FIVE WHOLE years ago. Hopefully not however 9 days is a bit too soon to even have a second thought never mind worry.

There is no timeline for Noa1. You are eligible to place an email enquiry to the Lockbox after 30 days from when the shipment was received not sent.

Sadly, it's always the "issue" with SEs. You're going to have to and take the tax hit and possibly be audited for other years as well for such a drastic "change" in income. That's irrelevant. Current tax year proof is required. And that tax proof must meet the FPGLs to be considered a viable sponsor. Or you could just get viable Joint Sponsor.

For self employed individuals, Gross Adjusted not Gross Total applies. Does your Gross Adjusted as listed on your 2022 ITR match what you wrote in as your current income on the I864 (not I485)? Does that amount meet the FPGLs? Often SEs do not report all of their income to reduce the amount of taxes owed thus their GA never meets the guidelines.

Parents can write affidavit stating you live with them. Provide IDs with shared address. SEPARATE ANYTHING with SAME address. Can't say you get zero pieces of mail???

Ask Emma Live Chat is your method of contact for USCIS. Look at forms. See if you have "parents listed". Confirm it's the same receipt number.

OP is referring to I485 GC. See title of post.

Couple days/weeks

No. That will likely result in a double issuance of SSNumber which will cause problems. That's why it's outlined to go get SSN first before marriage. She can go now, apply as SINGLE and of course, as you have to do anyways for a K1, with MAIDEN NAME only. Wait to get SSN and then file I485. Answer "yes, yes" on I485 as they will send her a replacement SSN Card in married name as that's what she's applying for AOS with.

As a VISITOR, that is correct. She is not a visitor and was not one since the moment she arrived so she cannot drive with a foreign DL (whether she has an IDP or not) AT ALL. I suggest you check out the DMV website for how long she has to get a SC DL to legally drive AND also, to talk to local LEO and State Highway Patrol who would be the ones arresting her when she could not prove she has a visitor's visa stamped in her passport along with her foreign DL at a traffic stop. I'm talking from experience.

So your immigrant is okay with not driving or having any freedom for possibly over a year? She's okay with bed rotting and being a complete housewife for that long. Mental health problems aren't a concern being secluded from the world while you go out and work every day? Is this something she feels okay to discuss with you? Does she understand it will take that long? The decision should be more hers than anyone's.

Same way you are getting junk mail. It has nothing to do with USCIS. Do you have a Bank of a America Account?...Exactly. Disregard.

Neither. You input "N/A" or "None" for ALL questions that don't apply. A K2 won't have an Alien Number until they have their first immigration benefit approved (I765 or I485). As a reciprocal VJ member:

Biometrics are completed at Application Support Centers more often than not. Yes and no. Biometrics, as above. Interviews are at Local Field Offices. Both are based on your zipcode primarily. You can look your LFO up on the office locator website at the bottom using your zipcode. So remembering that it is law that any immigrant (and non immigrant) must update their address of residence with USCIS within 10 days of moving, moving may greatly affect your processing times. Positively or negatively. Moving from a fast moving LFO to a slow moving LFO or from a slow moving LFO to a fast moving will change your experience. Also, noting that if you've already been scheduled for an interview at your old LFO and then move, canceling your spot may affect you as well when you need to be rescheduled at a new LFO. Moral of the story: 1. It's to your advantage to leaen how to and to monitor your estimated wait at your LFO on the website. 2. Moving complicates things. Address changes aren't USCIS's strong suit.

Strongly recommend you join your monthly I485 filing thread where you can peruse through the common questions about each form that filers encounter every month. It's the best resource available on VJ to help each other through the process.

Important to check the K1 completed etc box is marked on bottom left corner. Nope you are not wrong. If all is complete, you don't. IOs are not familiar with the K1 exemption and often need a prodding at the interview by you showing them the actual USCIS I693 policy manual stating so. I693 cost is $1k plus. RFE from uneducated Adjudicator or IO (not RFE after interview but all the same) will delay minimally. IMO, why would you redo your medical by SMALL chance your adjudicator or IO if interviewed is an imbecile? (Unless you are a perfectionist of course...) I don't have $1K to throw around for something that is likely not to happen. Just because you see it happening doesn't mean it ISN'T happening MOST OF THE TIME. Those would have 0 reason to post about it, right? If the instructions state the applicant must fill out? Or if the doctor must? My phone is loaded with downloaded forms and instructions and I'm unavailable to read them for you as I'm driving but if check out that resource first always. Many posts on the topic. "K1 I693" in the search bar would likely be a good basic resource to do research.

Trying to wrap my head around why you are presuming it would be confusing... K1s come to the US and input their address as one thing on the DS160 and then move before submitting I485. There is no crime in that. The policy is to file an AR11 (online or mail) whenever an immigrant changes places of residence WITHIN 10 days of moving. WITHIN meaning 10 days before or at max, after. File an AR11 and submit your case. You'll need your Noa1 receipt notice to get to you, right?

Rights in what sense? You don't have to get him an apartment however his immigration journey is his own and there isn't anything you can do to hinder it unless you have valid proof that your marriage and relationship was a scam from the start AND you knew it and played a role in the scam but likely that could get you into trouble as well.

Please fill out your VJ timeline as reciprocated to membership on VJ. Your explanation is not detailed. We have no info of your current status as your timeline is blank and guessing what yours is would be a disservice to others perusing your thread for info in future and those of us that help now's, time.

Ask what the error is so you know how to proceed. They can't not help you but you have to be reactive and ask questions.

Local Field Office. Determined by zipcode. Where you will be interviewed or who will approve your application. That's it. You have to input your info and then submit to get estimate info and then scroll to the bottom to enter Noa1 info to get outside of normal processing times actual date at the moment you searched.

And the rest of the status below that does not indicate WHEN and HOW to contact after that? It would be most accurate to follow what it says there. No relation. Your I131 is on a parallel path not the same path. A status change for it is for it alone. You can easily check whether or not you are coming up to be outside of normal processing times for it on the website which would make sense for the status update. Be careful of the wording as RFEs are generic to ALL applications. It likely stipulates online filers are eligible to reply online without clearly stating as such. An I485 cannot be filled online at this time so to be safe, I485 RFEs should be responded to by mail. To be safe, I'd contact Ask Emma Live Chat and confirm both that your RFE documents were received and the same for your enquiry. As others have stated, RFEs are not responded to. The next step is interview (likely) or approval without interview (unlikely). Your timeline is based on LFO which again, can easily be found on the USCIS processing times website. You can even input your Noa1 date to see when currently, you may be coming up to being outside of normal processing times. That estimate is as good as it gets.

What does your complete status on the official USCIS webpage state? If it's changed to "RFE Yada response docs Yada received", it will state on the bottom of the status WHEN you are eligible to contact and how. Your RFE letter also likely stated the procedure and timeline. Suggest you check your photocopy of it and your status. *it's usually 90 days from response received status you call so you likely inquired too soon and by wrong method of contact. Also note that unless you filed an application online, you should be mailing RFE responses in. Although you are ABLE to submit your response online that doesn't mean you were ELIGIBLE to do that. Check the above and clarify clearly what your status states and then I can advise further. It's not clear whether your RFE was even received and if that's the case you have a more urgent issue.

If you did not receive a document stating what was required for you to submit to have your I485 approved, how would you know that's what's required? That's why I'm confused. No one leaves an interview without documentation of recommendation of approval or approval pending required submission(s). Why did you not? Or did you? And you are not clear about what it says on it and how to proceed? This whole post is going back and forth referring to what's received AT the interview as an RFE. Anything received at or after the interview is not an RFE either so for clarity's sake and other who will read this and will also start mistakenly refer to requests at or after the interview as RFEs in error, I'm attempting to correct that misinformation. You will not ever receive an RFE as you have already been interviewed. You will have received a document AT your interview stating recommendation for approval or a list of what needs to be submitted. That is not an RFE. The document you received at your interview will explain how to submit and pending submissions.

The document you received after interview is not an RFE. Again, RFEs are only sent out BEFORE the interview not after. The document you receive at the interview is NOT an RFE and should never be referred to as such to prevent confusion for newbies. You will receive nothing from USCIS after the interview other than what you received AT IT so if you are waiting for something ADDITIONAL from USCIS to comply with you will be waiting forever.
