@Steve777, please indicate in your post what process you have filed so this post can be removed from the K1 AOS forum and to the correct one. Your VJ timeline is completely blank (which needs to be filled out also) so we cannot determine who you are (USC or GC Holder) and who your beneficiary is (parent/ sibling/ child/ spouse). That info is extremely important so that others in THIS forum do not get confused as it is K1/K3 Visa AOS SPECIFIC and I130s are NOT filed by them during the AOS process.

This is the common SSA practice although not in line with the SSA policy manual (but there isn't much you can do). They follow the practice that your immigration name is what they go by and since your immigration name has not been updated on any current immigration documents, they will not change your name. Once you receive your first immigration benefit in your new married name, you can go back to SSA and update it. (OR if you were smart you'd have applied for a replacement SSN card in your new name on the actual AOS forms). As proof of what? What does your SSN card prove? AOS proofs show bona fide marriage. How does your SSN card prove anything to do with your marriage? You provide a photocopy of your original or photocopy of your certified MC for AOS. That's it. Anything else is a bonus. Uscis know that you cannot update your name in many places until you receive your first immigration benefit in your new name. I STRONGLY recommend joining your monthly VJ AOS filing thread so you can learn the basics from your peers who are filing with you. You may also want to join the ones from several months before to get started on your basic research and answers to very common questions.

That is ONE EXPERIENCE, not a fact. There are thousands of ppl who have spoken with Ask Emma during RFE scenarios and have been advised that your timeline stalls for all as you are NOT ELIGIBLE for I765/I131 unless you are ELIGIBLE for I485. Once the RFE response is reviewed, your process continues. Think about it as well...two days is nothing and likely they just slipped through in error.

No date OR blanket waiver. Your panel physician likely didn't complete your D3025 because you did not bring a physical copy of your vaccination records to your appointment. They should have been there at your appointment. Your DS3025 must be BOTH MARKED complete and actually complete. Panel physician, No. Panel Physician's are abroad. Civil surgeons are in the US. And/or waiver. Yes. That's common. You'll need to call around and price them out. Sometimes flying to another state can be cheaper. It definitely may as all petitions are PARALLEL. If you get an RFE for one, ALL pause until the RFE is cleared. CS metal exams can cost up to $1k. That's why we (for others reading silently) ensure that our DS3025 is complete before it is included in our visa package and we use it to enter the US. Please fill out your VJ timeline in reciprocity. Your statistics help ALL VJ members while our answers help you personally. A blank timeline helps no one.

You've posted this in a K1 forum as you were a K1 at one time but now already have your 10Yr GC. Are you asking for someone else already in the US? Someone needing to file I130? Please indicate who this is for/ who the petitioner is so it can be moved to the correct forum and does NOT confuse K1s following in their own forum.

Correction, MARKED complete and IS complete. Only one dose of any vaccine is required for immigration purposes (excluding Covid at THAT time of Covid Requirements). Completing the series is a personal choice and has nothing to do with immigration. If you've read all the threads you'll see the links to the CDC website or you can Google "CDC Panel Physician" and research their page. Same page explains Covid. As above. No. You should submit your I485 and a PHOTOCOPY of your DS3025. You will keep your copy for your records and to bring to interview. Originals are never to be submitted unless requested. No. Your immigration vaccination requirements are complete. ...

Page 1 is about how to provide evidence for a JOINT SPONSOR not the original sponsor. If you DO NOT HAVE ONE, it may indicate that you may have checked a box saying you DID have one. Check for that. It may also just be instructions because you have not proven the OS meets the poverty guidelines. This is where you may have screwed up as these are the instructions for the ORIGINAL SPONSOR keeping in mind that it's generic: "If you have submitted Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, from the petitioning sponsor. We are unable to process the I-864 because it has one or more deficiencies. In order for us to process your application further, you must: Submit a completed and signed Form I-864, Affidavit of Support, from the petitioning sponsor. A valid signature consists of any handwritten mark or sign made by an individual, and does not include signatures created by a typewriter, word processor, stamp, auto-pen, or similar device." ENSURE that the PEN used does not look like it was printed by a device. An easy was to do that is to use a UNIQUE, thin pen to sign. "All pages must be present and of the latest edition date." Missing pages is common. Double check. There is a grace period for new forms. It states that on the forms page under edition date. You can look for it yourself and see that's likely not the issue. "Provide the petitioning sponsor's Social Security Number on Form I-864." Double check. Also, double-check it matches the proof of filing taxes and any other financial proofs. "Provide a complete and correctly calculated household size for the petitioning sponsor on Form I-864." At least this mistake is for certain. Ensure it is the only one. "Submit a complete copy of the petitioning sponsor’s Federal income tax return, including all supporting tax documents (W-2s, 1099s, Form 2555, and tax schedules) filed with the return, for the most recent tax year." Are you sure you submitted the correct RETURN Transcript? This section indicates either an error in form OR an error in transferring amounts to your I864 from your financial documents. Is the OS employer or self employed? The difference between what income each can use is HUGE and always mistaken. Is the tax return the only proof you submitted or did you over submit and submit other financial evidences and perhaps not put those amounts in the correct boxes? A copy of your I864 coverletter showing what you submitted would be helpful for us to help you.

You did NOT enter the US as the spouse of a US citizen after being approved for an I130 SPOUSAL Visa. You can only choose one. There is no "and". You DID this^^^ The question you are answering states I130, I129F and I360 categories and lists them. Your only answer is I129F as a K1. I strongly recommend joining the VJ AOS filing thread for your month of filing so you can learn the basics from your peers who are filing concurently with you.

N-400 USCIS Has been using two names
K1visaHopeful replied to TeamBWs's topic in US Citizenship General Discussion
All of that is irrelevant. She can change her name with N400. As above, enter current legal immigration name. Select name change box and enter name change info. Have you looked at the form before coming here? That may help you to understand my replies. That's false. Allow is not the correct term. All cities allow. AS ABOVE, some LOCAL FIELD OFFICES where citizenship ceremonies take place don't DO the name change THERE. They INSTEAD do it front of the judge at a different location. That in no way doesn't mean you aren't allowed to change your name just because you live in a certain city. It just means that they SOMETIMES do your ceremony differently at a different location if you do a name change. -
N-400 USCIS Has been using two names
K1visaHopeful replied to TeamBWs's topic in US Citizenship General Discussion
N400 allows a legal name change. You may apply for N400 in any name you choose, IF you wish to be known by a new name that immigration does not have you legally identified by. I don't follow you calling each name by a different name like American or Mandarin etc. but that's irrelevant. Pick a name. Any name under the sun if that's the name you want to legally change your name to. Joe Blow. Marilyn Monroe. Daffy Duck. N400 allows you to change your name. You must apply for it in that name and select name change. Where you live doesn't change that. Some LFOs have an extra step in that you need to appear before a judge at your citizenship ceremony but that's it. -
N-400 USCIS Has been using two names
K1visaHopeful replied to TeamBWs's topic in US Citizenship General Discussion
Input her current name that immigration has. That would be indicated on her LAST Immigration Benefit card. -
No you did not. An online account cannot be set up until you file online and/or receive an online account access code to sign up for one. What you signed up for was not the same type of online account. Correct. As above, sure BUT it is not an online account that will allow you to access any online functions. So why would you? Why? You won't be able to access any online filing functions like accessing RFEs, responding etc because you filed online/ were given IOE access. As above, change the original non online account email address in your profile or just simply close it so you can use your email to create the online account. Please compete it in full. Your K1 visa section is blank. I'll respond if necessary only then.

I-751 fast timeline
K1visaHopeful replied to CelloLover's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
At one time this notification meant something. Currently it doesn't mean what you are assuming. It simply means someone opened your case file for any reason. Correct. Nothing you have said indicates that. No. Biometrics must be completed. Possibly but you'll still need biometrics. BUT you'll still wait for adjudication which the website states 80% of all cases will take up to 28 months. 20% longer. Because your individual adjudicator decides that you don't need an interview. No way to calculate that other than you have a 50% chance with your individual adjudicator. 1. This post has been moved to the appropriate I751 forum as you have posted in the K1 AOS forum incorrectly. Please be mindful. 2. Please fill out your VJ timeline in reciprocity. Your VJ stats help everyone while our answers help you. A blank timeline helps no one. -
You cannot open the same type of account without filing a form online and receiving an online access code to sign up. They are not the same things. Yes. You can have both an account for paper filed cases (which is not an Online Account) and an account for online cases if you change the originals' email but that's kind of redundant. I'm not understanding how you have a USCIS Account Number when you signed up without an access code. Online accounts don't have account numbers until you file something online and recieve an access code. Yes. You'll use the access code to create an Online account. And then add any previous paper cases you'd like (if it matters to you).
