    Yumburger reacted to John & Rose in Marriage Certificate in the Philippines   
    Did you get married in the Philippines?  This is a little vague.  I know people there who got married in Hong Kong so they used their Hong Kong marriage certificate.  If you were married in the Philippines you need the PSA Marriage Certificate.

    Stay calm.   We should never carelessly toss the "F" (raud) word around.

    Correct but the I-130 is NOT the ONLY form to be filed.  The OP needs to carefully study the I-130 instructions and the guides here, so they know what other documents and forms should be submitted for their own circumstances.

    Once you are a USC ... If you wife currently resides outside the US, you will be using the Consular Process, where she will wait out the processing time and interview in her home country... the I130 is the first step of this processing ... all that is needed is the I130, required supporting documents, and the fee 
    If she is legally in the US on another visa type she may be eligible to apply for Adjustment of Status ... which requires the I130 and the AOS forms  such as the I 485 
     
    As an LPR you can start for the spouse of an LPR petition now, and upgrade to the IR1 as soon as you become a USC.  
     
    Please supply more specific information do people can better assist you

    If your wife is overseas, you start with I-130. If your wife is here in States, you can file I-130 and I-485 together. If you are going to be citizen soon, i suggest you file 130 as USC. Yes you can file now as permanent residence (F2A) and later upgrade to CR1 but if you are scheduled to be citizen within 30-60 days, i would wait to file as a citizen. If it is going to take longer to become citizen, go a head and file now. (This is my suggestion only as i filed a PR and later upgraded to CR1) 
     
    Start filling I-130 (https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-130.pdf) and gather documents such as marriage certificate, photos together, boarding passes, receipts etc. I would also suggest front loading your petition to avoid any RFE. Front loading is where you include as much as evidence of bonafide relationship.

    You may file Form N-400, Application for Naturalization, 90 calendar days before you complete your permanent residence requirement if your eligibility for naturalization is based upon being a:
    - Permanent resident for at least 5 years; or
    - Permanent resident for at least 3 years if you are married to a US citizen.
     
    You may use the USCIS Early Filing Calculator https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/dateCalculator.html
    to ensure you file your Form N-400 within the 90-day window.
    USCIS will deny your form if you file more than 90 days before your anniversary date.

    It won't affect your n400 application since you did't stay out of the US for more than 6 months in a row
