  1. OP has been inactive since May 2023. Update v unlikely
  2. Only thing i would add is that if the original SS card has the restriction wording on it , then it’s best to get a new one without this restriction on the card. Avoid confusion
  3. When your application reaches the top of whatever pile it is in. https://www.uscis.gov/tools/checking-your-case-status-online this can give you an idea of the average processing time
  4. You can add it into the additional info section but I’m not sure it’s needed
  5. As Crazy cat suggested .. ask NVC to link the cases. No guarantees. If that isn’t successful when you get the interview date, contact the consulate and ask for them to schedule the interviews together
  6. Current income is what is needed in order to meet the income requirement. Have good documentation such as payslips and employment letter. Transitioning from low income during studying to income with a job is common
  7. The answer according to the information you have given is “no” You had a J visa but were not subject to the 2 year home requirement
  8. Having paid the fee already, the CBP officer will ask you to confirm your mailing address for the green card. No forms needed for this. It’s a pity the Consulate info is out of date .. it makes it more confusing and stressful than it needs to be.
  9. Agree that revalidation MAY be possible. It is a totally different approach than the emergency travel document you asked about Will you would have an answer in time is a bigger question She would have to leave before getting married
  10. Not possible. This applies to someone who already has a GC. Marry then go cr1 route if she needs to leave
  11. The issuing consulate will need to reseal the yellow envelope before they travel
  12. The NTA isn’t yours to withdraw. You can voluntarily sign a I 407 and relinquish your LPR status as you leave the country .. this would then leave no grounds for a appearance before an immigration judge take place
  13. I may not be correct .. others will chime in .. The application must use the name as recorded on the birth certificate. “Other names used “ would be where you would add in the other ways in which his name is recorded
  14. Filing Form I-130 Petitions in Exceptional Situations https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/filing-petitions-outside-the-us.html
  15. It can only be done with evidence and documents in hand .. it is then up to the Consulate to accept or reject . Do not file the I 130 direct to USCIS ahead of any DCF application. If the I 130 is already filed then no DCF is possible. You would have a steering case for DCF
  16. Use the IOE receipt numbers ( issued when the GC fee was paid) and follow on their myuscis.com account. Or use “case tracker” on the uscis website
  17. Not true. Travel is NOT “not allowed”
  18. You do not surrender your GC until your oath ceremony. Travel as usual using the letter and expired GC You will be asked about any international travel since the interview at the sign in desk when you attend for your oath taking ceremony so just keep track of dates Usual care you not be out for too long.
  19. 5 yr does not require documentation regarding ongoing marriage so it is a little simpler. You must still meet the Continuous residence, physical presence and state residency requirements
  20. The I130 can be submitted from anywhere. Make v sure you use your US address as residential address
  21. You get no choice in processing center.
