That’s exactly what I think too! Thanks. Will be applying soon and it just randomly came to my mind

I got it 😂 thank you! I guess I will apply soon and we will see how it rolls

I really hope it won’t be a problem. Thank you!

Anyone?

I can apply for citizenship based on 3 year rule but I just realized last year I went to my home country to visit my family after almost 4 years of not seeing them and I brought my 3 year old son along so everybody could meet him. Unfortunately my husband wasn’t able to come because he started his dream job and definitely couldn’t request time off. I know you have to live in marital union to apply based on marriage and now I’m worried this will look like for these almost two months we didn’t see each other. Obviously my address in the states stayed the same, I was even getting some packages and letters, me and my husband were calling and texting, we have a home together and our toddler. Just not sure if IO would be weird about this in this weird times. To me it’s just looks like a family visit or vacation but I’m not sure how they would feel about this.

Thank you very much! I’m worried they overlooked it at my green card interview because we never officially withdrew the i129f and it expired on its own. I’m scared they will see it as 2 pending cases even though supposedly i129f is null and void after getting married

Thank you for your answer. But also I’ve heard that they “dig deeper” during citizenship process so that makes me feel stressed

We had pending k1 visa during covid times but embassy was closed so it was stuck at NVC stage. Later on I came to the US to visit my partner for holidays and while I was here our circumstances changed and we got married. During my green card interview the officer did ask about if we filed for k1 in the past and we answered truthfully. I got my green card and now I have pending ROC and I’m eligible for citizenship but I’m worried it will look bad we never officially withdrew k1 and it just expired. Would that cause issues? Really don’t like political climate now and it’s stressing me out

Thank you! I’m just worrying about the fact that we never withdrew our k1 and it just expired on its own

I’m eligible to apply for citizenship based on marriage. I got my GC back in 2022 after adjusting status from ESTA. My case is a bit different because me and my husband had K1 pending at that time. In 2020 embassies were closed and k1 was not being processed for awhile. I decided to go and visit my husband (back then fiance) on ESTA. Our k1 was at NVC at that time. During my stay the circumstances changed and we decided to get married and file for AOS. My gc was approved and during the interview the officer did ask how I entered the states and if we had k1 pending. That was it and no more questions. Am I in the clear? All these articles about ICE and arrests stress me out and I keep delaying my application. Also we have a son together, house and tons of things with both our names. Of course it’s a genuine marriage. When I entered on ESTA, the CBP officer did ask what the purpose of my stay is and I said I’m visiting my finance and his family, he said ok and to have a good time. That was it. I never misrepresented myself. also we never officially withdrew the K1, I was told that it will expire on its own. Would that cause any issues? I’ve been seeing so many posts and articles how they screen you throughly for citizenship and they’re literally trying to find anything so your n400 won’t be approved
