What earnings documentation or tax assessments does Canada require of you to tax your earnings? You won't need to worry about US taxes until you get a Social Security Number. Beneficiary’s job description is not as important as the petitioner's job description to prove financial support for I-130. Without more documentation, you can just label yourself something like "freelance contractor" (if you work by contract) or just "freelance services" unless you have earnings documents or tax assessments with more specific job labels?

Do you have 1099s or W2s from each of your freelance jobs? Do you have IRS tax transcripts from the past 3 years?

@MrsAb2021 Yes, the ROC foreign spouse can travel domestically and internationally with a green card, extension letter, and passport. You book the ticket with the passport but upload the green card and extension letter for US entry documents. REAL ID or REAL ID driver's license is more convenient for domestic travel since it is just 1 card vs 3 documents.

I've never done this, but you could handwrite to type in 11.b or 12.b to "see Part 8". then in Part 8, list Page Number 5, Part Number 2, Item Number 11 or 12. Then, you can type or handwrite in as needed. But you should be fine if you just list the address in Part8.

You can: 1. Handwrite in any fields in Part2. I've seen others in the past handwrite in Arabic, Thai, Vietnamese, etc. 2. In Part8, list Page Number 5, Part Number 2, Item Number 11 or 12. Then, you can type or handwrite in as needed. For 11.b or 12.b, complete the street number and name as needed. You can spill over to 11.c or 12.c as needed to fit the local address format. Remember the beneficiary’s address is where the K1 visa will be sent but some embassies/consulates allow for pickups at the embassies/consulates. Also, some embassies/consulates will notify you of their courier services when it is time to deliver, and you can arrange with the courier services about the delivery or pickup.

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-the-meaning-and-value-of-american-citizenship/ With all the speculations about the revoking of birthright citizenship order of the 14th Amendment, the above link has the actual verbiage. Does anyone have any ideas about the interpretation or how this will affect the current USCIS policies?

The archived 2020 civics test can not be found here. https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship/2020test Anyone know where to find the 2020 civics test?

Thanks. But we don't have the online account number in NOA1 or NOA2. The online access number was sent in an email separately to us, but it was a 1-time use code.

Thanks. I did not realize G-1145 is not submitted with the I-751. Where did you find your USCIS online account number? I could not find our USCIS online account number in the https://my.uscis.gov/ login? https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/827933-how-to-find-the-uscis-online-account-number-in-myuscisgov/

Greetings all, I'm anxiously awaiting to join the January 2025 filers club. My cover letter and evidence list look like https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/827917-what-do-you-think-about-this-cover-letter-i-751/ Any feedback is welcome. I will probably send the I-751 package out sometime next week. I'm just trying to make sure all the i's are dotted and t's are crossed 😂

If you look at our Profile->Our Story or our Timeline, we received the EAD/AP combo card in about a week after approval. I've seen others post that their cards took several weeks.

Just report the standard base 40 hours per week salary for the I-134. Overtime are non-standard.

@Sm1smom I think you mean USCIS sends the Online Access Code which is different from the Online Account Number. The Online Access Code is sent along with the NOA1 after the I-485 is received so the applicant can track the status. I did see the Online Account Number somewhere at one point, but can not find it now, or forget where it was used? @OldUser I appreciate your response, but apparently, the Online Account Number does not show up in our my.USCIS.gov. So the question now is the Online Account Number ever used or what is its purpose? Why would the forms I-129F, I-485, and I-751 ask for it if it is optional?

Don't have N-400 yet. But the I-485 Case Status, etc. only has the Receipt Number IOE******.

No. I do not see the USCIS Online Account Number in the link you provided. I just see the different Case Status and Case Number like IOE******. I guess leaving the USCIS Online Account Number blank is the best option.

After login to my.uscis.gov, I can't seem to find the USCIS Online Account Number. In the I-129F, I-485 or I-751, does anyone know how to find the USCIS Online Account Number (if any)? Thanks.

Invoice ID is from NVC. The consulate might have it as well?

Have you completed your I-864 financial support responsibilities for your 2 ex's? If not, USCIS may red flag that as reason to deny.

We are currently house-sitting for family members and will include an explanation of our living situation in Part 11 of the I-751. Our bills show joint accounts for the utilities. Since there are some redundant overlap in the evidence time period between the I-751 and the N-400, we are including bimonthly bill statements like the odd months with the I-751 and the even months with the N-400 plus the extra year for the 3-year rule requirement. Thanks for the reminder to include the driver's licenses.

I have not seen 2 RFEs just for the medical, but I have seen others posting their RFE with 2 missing requirements in which they needed the I-693 medical. If you do get 2 medical RFEs, most likely you need to include the I-693 with the I-485. Check out https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-now-requires-report-of-immigration-medical-examination-and-vaccination-record-to-be-submitted and https://www.uscis.gov/i-693 If you do get I-485 denied, depending on the incompletion or non- compliance, you need to complete or to comply then resubmit a new I-485 with the fee again. If your incompletion or non-compliance is complicated, then you may need to pay an immigration lawyer to help you.

Best to ask the civil surgeon doctor. Including the I-693 with the I-485 is the most compliant answer to USCIS. Check out https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-now-requires-report-of-immigration-medical-examination-and-vaccination-record-to-be-submitted and https://www.uscis.gov/i-693

If you want to include additional information about your pregnancy, you can do so in Part 11 of the I-751. List: Page Number 3, Part Number 5, Item Number 1-6, and explain when you are expecting. Document the pregnancy for USCIS so they know what to expect if you show up with a newborn to the interview. Pregnancy and newborns can be good evidence for a bona fide relationship. But as others have said, list only the children you have on the date of the form submission.

Hello to all who got a biometrics appointment. Can you get your biometrics done before the scheduled appointment date like for the AOS? Or do you have to wait till the biometrics appointment?
