  1. Yes you are right ..recall the recent thread where the OP was approved for ROC without an interview and had never gotten around to notifying of the divorce. Thx for this caution
  2. Who is the LPR filing for ROC.. you or your husband ? If its you, and you decided to divorce , you are still able to proceed with ROC but you must change the application type from joint to divorce and will need the divorce papers before it can be finalized. The ROC process can take several years so you have time to get these documents in hand Firstly get yourself to safely.. consider carefully what you want to do .. if you need to file an intervention order against him , do so…. Changing the ROC status can be done anytime prior to the interview
  3. You could ask at the interview about the instruction, but i am pretty sure you get either 1. shoulder shrug.. No issue 2. explanation that all is digital But, CBP don’t ask about xrays and yes, 8 years later, ours remain on the cd in the bottom of the storage chest .
  4. Keep it simple and truthful and don’t worry. The most important part is the intent to marry within 90 days of arriving in the US on the fiancé visa .. hence the requirement to provide signed letters of intent
  5. Write a cover letter explaining as you have .. And include documentation that the child resides at the same address as you .. drs letter, school, daycare registration.. Do not fail to respond..
  6. Yes .. i do know !! And you are right .. lots of talk but little accuracy or knowledge. A bit concerning. Im out .. But its been fun!!
  7. Oh an ESTA. ESTA stay cannot be extended . Didn't you know that ?
  8. There is no “ one that allows entry without paying”. ESTA application requires a fee of $21
  9. Successful extension applications of a visitor visa .. see that ALL the time .. not. Spend the $475, apply then deal with the long period before it’s denied c and v the impact of overstaying .. bye bye B2 visa ., Im am genuinely concerned that the your information just doesn’t reflect the reality of the visa world in many many ways 😓
  10. Yep. Visiting Canada or a Mexico for a reset …. Mmmmmm
  11. Busted or not .. it is, yes.. its what we have to deal with ..
  12. It can be 3 weeks to 9 months. No rhyme or reason. You haven’t listed your country ,. Z but it’s worth confirming with your country’s consulate that you must return your current payout when applying to renew. I know Australia used to have this policy.. But they no longer do., they just cancel the old passport electronically. If you do have to send it with your application, you could request an ADIT stamp as evidence of your LPR status. It is a separate piece of paper that will have your details , photo and the USCIS stamp https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-announces-additional-mail-delivery-process-for-receiving-adit-stamp
  13. Depending on the state she is in.. in many states you have to actually have a low income.. If you have no income then you fall through the gap .. and an LPR can’t get Medicaid in most states.
  14. Your wife as petitioner is always the primary sponsor even when unable to meet the requirements. She must file an I 864 with all required documentation. Her brother is the sole joint sponsor… and he must complete his own I 864 with all documentation . If he is married, it is recommended though not required, for his spouse to file the I 864a
  15. Travel insurance will not cover someone who is adjusting status. You’re looking at ACA insurance and monthly rates and deductible can be very high
  16. Yes we did. Normal processing time Nothing quicker or easier second time around
  17. She will need either the GC or a work permit to get a SSN. Work permits used to be processed more quickly than GC and were free if applying at the same time as the AOS.. But now processing times are similar and there is fee .. So its not really a lot of positives in applying for the EAD.
  18. Read the instructions for the I130 form and the information on the full process on this webpage and also on the govt site https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/step-2-begin-nvc-processing.html Keep coming back here to ask for specific info or questions , clarifications etc. Good luck.
  19. It will work. It has to .. because the USCIS system won’t be able to get you through AOS because of your marriage /entry dates .., and it won’t let you naturalize without going through AOS because of the expiry date on the current card. Although it is a real pain to get this corrected, it is one of the simplest to document and easiest get through. Apply then move on. You have LPR status documentation for b the next 12 months and can get the ADIT stamp if its not done by then. Let us know how this journey goes !
  20. Yes. The ADIT stamp is another one like the one placed in your passport on entry. The one received on entry is valid for 12 months only . If your card hasn't arrived and you need to travel overseas it is a better document to have than just the I791 https://www.uscis.gov/i-9-central/form-i-9-related-news/temporary-status-documentation-for-lawful-permanent-residents-lpr
  21. Yes and if they ask for it , make sure you get a stamp in your passport from the service centre. Can be hassle convincing them you need an Appt but you need the documentation
  22. 😩 This needs to be corrected. You do not need to do ROC but the system will not be able to deal with any N400 application in the future if you don’t get it corrected or try to apply for ROC I90. No fee as its their mistake. Include a copy of your marriage certificate, photocopy of the endorsed visa showing the date of entry and a brief cover letter. Keep the GC and then the I791 receipt when you get it. Then just get on with life and be surprised when the corrected GC actually arrives !!!
  23. You don’t file /apply. They each do. They must have convincing evidence that they will be returning to their home country From the info you have given in your post, it is very likely that they will not be deemed as having strong home country ties. But they wont know for certain until they go through the process. So it is up to them if they want to spend the $ and possible be refused.
