In my case, most of the information I needed was in the court documents (including police reports). So, start at the courthouse first.

I'm not sure if this helps, but I will share my experience. My step-children from the Philippines entered the US over a year after their mother's admission. However, the US Embassy allowed / advertised the extension due to COVID being a factor. We filed for AOS, EAD, and AP. They received their green cards with no issue.

Just when I thought I've seen it all. Another strange scenario emerges. 🙂

My wife had the same experience. She wasn't able to get her name changed on her SSN until after she received her green card (we applied for but never received her EAD due the green card being received first).

Congrats!!!

You may want to delete your scanned images, remove your name, and re-upload your scanned images without your name being visible.

Good catch. I missed that too.

It's best to apply for the SSN before marrying. In my case, my fiance (now wife) applied before we married and she did not get her SSN until after we married.

Sorry. I wasn't accusing you of anything. I was merely asking if my calculations were incorrect. Thanks for the advice. I will certainly include the i-751 copies (and the explanation you suggested) in the N-400 petition for my wife when the time comes.

My wife applied for i-751 in December of 2024. Unfortunately, they were unable to remove conditions together because stepdaughter was a follow to join and she came approximately 1 year after her mother. See comments above. Wife and daughter did not remove conditions together. My wife's green card expired January of 2025. We have filed for i-751 for her in December 2024. According to my calculations, my wife can apply for naturalization in October of 2025 because it will 90 days prior to her 3 years being an LPR living with me for more than 3 years. How are my calculations incorrect?

Hello, I have been reviewing some websites and I have a few questions: 1. It seems that once my LPR wife becomes a naturalized citizen, her LPR stepdaughter who lives with us and is under 18, will automatically become a U.S. Citizen as well. Can you please confirm that to be true? 2. My LPR stepdaughter's conditional green card expires May of next year. If her mother's naturalization doesn't happen by February, we will need to file for the ROC for her at that time. Is that also true? 3. When my wife becomes a naturalized citizen, what will happen to my daughter's ROC filing if there is overlap between the two processes? Does it just become disappear or do I have to alert USCIS? Thanks for your help. Scott

Hi. If your wife has a written offer of employment, she can attempt to expedite the EAD (work permit). This was possible a couple of years ago with some success and some failure. I'm not sure if this possible any longer but it is worth looking into.

My wife submitted her I-751 packet on 12/06/2024. We think she will become a citizen before the removal of conditions is processed. 🙂 Good luck everyone.

I would have your son ask the questions on this site. He will be the one responsible for all immigration decisions made.

Money Orders are also another payment method. I've used them in the past with good results.
