  1. Wherever you were a tax resident and held driver's license / state ID. Wherever you registered to vote and spent most of time.
  2. You're saying yourself in 2020-2021 you haven't officially moved to the US. You need to be officially and in fact living in the US to use this time for naturalization.
  3. You'll have to provide list of all trips outside the US in the last 5 years. That's how your residency in 2020-2022 may get questioned. Essentially, you didn't have strong ties to the US in those years.
  4. USCIS can conclude you started to reside in the US in 2022. Did you have a lease since 2020? Did you have a job in the US since 2020? If yes, then I'm taking my words back and you should apply right away.
  5. Updated marital evidence (joint account bank statements, bills listing both names, lease in both names, insurance policies in both names etc). All IDs and cards issued by USCIS and all passports, whether valid or expired. Also, would help to have spouse coming with you as you're filing based in marriage. Good luck!
  6. This is a very difficult question. Immigration wise, if he's no longer employed with E-2 sponsor employer, he has no legal status to be present in the US. I also not sure if he can get SSI as a non-resident alien. Most likely, not.
  7. Things are changing, and even 3-6 months was more of an exception than rule
  8. He may be, but the question is whether she is prepared to support... Otherwise OP may ask in few months whether adjusting under VAWA is a viable option. OP: expect a difficult interview under new administration. Your case has some red flags in it. The proper way is to leave the US on time, develop relationship, visit each other few more times, and eventually marry and have US citizen sponsor you for GC via CR-1 visa.
  9. You definitely need to attach medical exam results in sealed envelope with I-485 filing. There's new rule saying packet will be rejected if you don't submit I-693. Medicals are good for 2 years but I'm sure you sent sealed medical with previous I-485? So you can ask civil surgeon whether he can produce another one of those envelopes, but I'm pretty sure they'd want to charge you for full medical again.
  10. ^ this Officer has discretion whether to accept proof of incomr for 1 year or if doubt, request all 3 years. Qualifying Joint Sponsor seems the way to go to ensure I-485 is approved.
  11. As @Boiler said - for 3 years? Also did you include all pages of all documents you submitted?
  12. Was the proof of soonsor's US citizenship also submitted? How well above 125% minimum the income is?
  13. I don't see a problem getting a PR in Canada. I haven't heard anybody penalized for doing this.
  14. Why do you need a Canadian PR if you're pursuing US LPR?
  15. As they're minors (under 18), they should have became US citizens over a year now if few conditions were met: 1) Kids had Green Cards 2) Kids lived with you and your spouse in the US when spouse became US citizen If those are true, you can apply for their US passports. Also, highly recommended to file N-600 for each kid to have certificate of citizenship for life.
  16. You always need to update address when moving, within 10 days of moving, while you are a permanent resident. Doesn't matter whether it's conditional (2 year) or permanent (10 year) card. Only after you naturalize you don't have to update USCIS about your address changes, unless you sponsor somebody. For that you'll file I-865
  17. Yes it's her form. The account should be hers. No Another option is not to put any account info at all and USCIS can create one as far as I know.
  18. Cannot do I-485 now as the baby is outside of the US. Entering on B2 to adjust is fraud as other respected members of VJ mentioned.
  19. Yes, you can. I believe the fee is $630 (see https://www.uscis.gov/g-1055?form=i-131). Hopefully if you file now it'll get processed by August. No guarantees though. Some receive it in few months, for others it takes longer.
  20. Either way: if didn't get all vaccinations or DS-3025 has typos, the best and probably the only course of action is to get a I-693 done. Whether you'll need X-Ray or not is for civil surgeon to decide. If you don't satisfy USCIS with response to RFE, you'll going to get denial and lose filing fees for I-485.
