There was an update on my case. Notice was officially sent by mail, it was also uploaded to the case as well (it shows the 48 month renewal) and also another notice saying that they will re-use my wife's biometrics. Case changed to "Actively Reviewing"... I guess now just gotta wait for it to arrive by mail and keep on waiting until who knows when for more actions on the case.

Hello Everyone!
I just had my interview with my wife yesterday. Unfortunately we did not get an on the spot approval. It was a rough interview. At the end of the interview the officer said everything looks good but there was an issue he needed to correct (heard something about a port? airport?) and that he may have time later in the day to fix it. But he repeated that everything looks good a couple of times. Today I saw that my I-130 had an update in my account, I saw the that status of the petition is still "Interview has been scheduled" but when I looked at documents there is a letter of approval scanned. nothing on the I-485 so far. anyone has had similar experience?

Hello everyone! Just finished my interview. It was very easy. Officer was super nice and actually fun to talk to. She went over civics and English. Passed it. I had to update since I got married and had a child. Besides basic questions on the info of my wife and child (plus some small talk about kids and how wonderful and difficult they are) no more questions asked. She went over the application and then recommended approval. I'm currently waiting inside the USCIS building to schedule the oath. Seems like it may be tomorrow. We'll see.
They actually scheduled it for Friday. It's great they just handed me the appointment form rather than wait for the website to be updated

If your wife leaves the US before adjusting status and receiving a GC she'll be subject to a 10 year ban.
You probably want to forget the job overseas and sort out her status after you obtain citizenship.
You should definitely chat to a lawyer.
Does your child have US citizenship?
Yes my child was born last year. So he is a citizen by birth. Hmmm I'm sure the lawyer will most likely recommend us to go through the immigration process before we leave the country

Where is your wife right now?
My wife is living with me in the US. She overstayed her visitor Visa. One of the reasons it makes things a little tricky. I guess we'll have to talk to a lawyer about our case and see what he recommends.

I spent 6 years on a work visa, during which time I met my USC spouse and got married. Our US based office offered me a green card but I declined knowing that our European office wanted us over there for three or fours years. Well four years turned into 8 years, two babies and two continents and we eventually returned to the US with me on a L1. Then we did AOS for me a couple of years later.
Point being, you’re moving to Europe for 3 years but maybe 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 years. Personally I am glad we waited until we got back. Didn’t make sense to get a “permanent resident” card only to become a resident in another country. Waste of time and resources. Enjoy the European lifestyle and the career opportunity.
Thank you for your insight

Thanks everyone for your advice! It's just a job opportunity i was thinking about. I'm not sure if I'll follow through or not. Maybe i will wait a couple of years for my wife to get her citizenship. I thought about just moving there and starting the process while I'm in Europe. But I'm just exploring the possibilities.

Getting a GC and a re entry permit will give her 2 years
can you get multiple re-entry permits? meaning if by the 2 years I am not ready to come back to the US, can my spouse come back to the US and re-new her entry permit?

Hello Everyone,
I am about to be a US Citizen (interview scheduled). I have recently been informed by my employer that there are some good growth opportunities but they would require me to relocate temporarily to Europe. However my spouse is currently not a green card holder (we'll probably file when I finish my N-400). However, I am not sure how this could be done if I relocate with her and my son to Europe. Do we delay the process until we come back to the US? or is there some kind of process we could follow for her to not lose her green card holder status (if she is approved within the next year)?
Regards

Hello everyone. I've been a silent reader on the forum. I'm an October 2018 filer SRC. Got biometrics done on November and yesterday I got a text. Card is in production! Next step is N400.
Good luck everyone.

Hello people,
Its my first time writing on the forums. But i already studied a lot of things, thanks to all of you.
I m facing a strange situation. In about 20 days is the dead line to file my I-751 asking for a divorce waiver.
I was given an erroneous Green card due to the Consular error. They Gave IR ( 10 years ), when i must have CR for 2 years. Anyways, I did notice this later but i did not change it because i was traveling back and forth to my country and i needed it. Not time to wait for a replacement. Also in all those travels nobody asked me strange questions about the marital or the validity of the card.
I m thinking to write a cover letter stating this fact and treat this petition normally as CR, by mention the error and that was not at my fault.
Does it sounds as good plan?
Or you think they will deny the I-751 based on the fact that the card is not CR and they will want first to revoke it and then have me to file again.
But if they revoke it i am automatically out of status because of the Final divorce. ( Law says CR permanent resident status ends automatically after 2 years or if attorney general finds that the marriage was ended by divorce.).
Another i was thinking, is to play it stealth and not to file anything now, keep silent until the pass of 5 years when i can benefit of the statute of limitation, which means they cannot revoke card after this time. I think this is only for the third court jurisdiction states, though.
Any help much appreciated. Thank you very much!
How long were you married before you were petitioned for green card? if you were married for more than 2 years before you applied for green card, then you get a 10 year green card automatically. CR is only for people who applied when they were married for less than two years at the time when they applied for green card.

when did you apply to remove conditions? they usually do visits if you have a red flag or randomly. Also it is recommended to change address as soon as you move. They will most likely schedule an interview.

Hello everyone, I sent my package on October 1st (Texas). I just got my NOA with the 18 month extension. The case number starts with SRC what service center is that? I am guessing that the next step is the Biometrics? how long does it take to receive the appointment?

48 month extension received by mail today along with letter Biometrics being re-used. Interestingly it came from California Service Center. Hopefully it moves somewhat quickly.
