    You also had the 4th of July in the mix too. I know it's anxiety riddling, especially with an imminent baby entering the mix. Hopefully you just get the great news sooner than later!

    This will depend on whether or not this is a combo I-751 and N-400 interview. If it's the combo, much more needed. If it's just the later, yeah, minimal requirements - DL & GC.

    Please fill out your timeline: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=273349 Assuming your wife is completing consular processing, she will have to fill out her end of the paperwork (DS-260) for her and your child. You will have to fill out the Affidavit of Support (I-864) for each of them. There will be supplemental evidence required, including your last three years of US filed income tax. Once those conditions are met and approved, an interview invite will be sent and an immigration medical will be required. There is a guide here:

    @JeanneAdil provided the information to get an ITIN. This is a tax number for people who are not eligible for a SSN and works fine for bank accounts and income tax filings. Once the greencard or EAD are approved, then a SSN can be applied for. As for AOS, it may be soon that you hear something, @Dragonsarereal, but it may be another 6 months. USCIS are unpredictable and the current administration has definitely moved the goal posts a bit on how they want things vetted, etc. I'd honestly take the conservative approach and just apply for the ITIN. If it works out that the conditional permanent residency is granted sooner, excellent. If not, you're good to go.

    The issue lately seems to be there's no info! USCIS now tells newcomers to wait 120 days instead of the usual 90 days. It's a mess!

    This is good info! I have seen a couple of I90 filings recently and, of course, there hasn't been much info out there on the actual timelines. Nice to have a data point!

    Do you have a community page (FB, NextDoor, Ring, etc) where you can ask? Our local community FB page often has people posting their used moving boxes or others asking for. Quite common and the price is definitely right - $0.

    Did your spouse ever go into the SSA after obtaining citizenship, certificate in hand, and update their citizenship status? That's something that has to be done in person and cannot be done online. That said, I had created an online SSA account prior to obtaining citizenship and had no issues. They mailed a security document to complete online sign up. Yes, it does have an expiration on it because it is a security verification document.

    You have 2 options, essentially: 1. Marry, adjust status, stay put until you have Advanced Parole 2. Marry, leave and complete Consular Processing, which will have you away for 2+ years You can't have your cake and eat it too, unfortunately. You'll have to decide your priorities. Is it finishing up your assignment with your J1 and being with your partner or is it heading back to the UK to visit? If going back to the UK for Christmas is imperative but so is being with your partner, the closest thing to having your cake is to marry now, celebrate in October and cross your fingers and hope you get AP in time for December. If you don't get AP in time, plan to visit once it's been awarded.

    It's always advisable to have the instructions, which are separate, open in another tab while filling this stuff out.

    What's the gap?

    Understand completely. Airline loyalty benefits go a long way, especially coming off of a long haul!
  13. mam521
    Any reason you have to fly Delta? I get it if it's points/loyalty dollars and a significant cost reduction. But, United and AA also fly into St. George so there's potential options.

    Biometrics can be changed, too. Honestly, you could probably show up with your letter in hand to the center and they'd do them early. Maybe you'll be lucky and they'll just reuse your biometrics and then it's a non-conversation.

    How much more time does she need before she can petition for citizenship, if that's something she's considered?

    @Forit728 please fill out your timeline: https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=490153 Which country?

    This is what I was thinking. Even in September, it's still hurricane season and depending where the storms land, they often drag across GA.

    The divorce waver has been covered. As for your child, you will require full custody or permission from the child's father to move the child to the UK. The US are quite strict about US born children and parental rights. Regardless, I would definitely get your Little their British citizenship: https://www.gov.uk/apply-citizenship-british-parent/born-on-or-after-1-july-2006 and their UK passport. So sorry you're going through all of this!

    Jokes aside, I used "US Citizenship Test 2025 Plus" from the App Store and just ran through questions, 50 at a time, until I consistently scored 96% or above. It all worked out well!

    Miu is trying to force you to slow down and take a minute for yourself. Miu recognizes that you're stressed out but sometimes just taking that time to just pet the kitteh is a great way to take a breath and remember Miu loves you unconditionally. Miu's demands are also much easier and more self satisfactory, too. Who doesn't love purrs from pets - easy demand to fulfill and you're unlikely to be told you're petting kitteh incorrectly. Just sayin'...

    Google "benefit in kind". That is what she did and you allowed her to do. The unfortunate reality is the totality of the circumstances mean she's very unlikely to secure another tourist visa.

    Ahhh....big hugs, @TBoneTX. Everything is happening so fast and so furious. Definitely not easy. Have faith better days are in the future! Just gotta get through this rough patch.
