  1. It doesn't seem like it was enough evidence and USCIS issued RFE because of this. Bonafide marriage evidence Did you send any evidence of living together? Joint lease and copies of utility bills in both names? Did you send evidence of comingling finances? Any joint banking account statements? Tax return transcripts showing you filed taxes jointly? Any insurance policies (health, life, car) showing both names? Any proof of travelling together or any big purchases as a married couple? Any affidavits from friends, family, colleagues, building managers saying they knew you as a married couple? Abuse evidence Any police reports that were filed documenting abuse? Any medical documented proof of physical abuse? Any phychological evaluation showing damage abuser caused you? Any records of you staying at shelter to be away from abuser? Any affidavits from friends, family or witnesses of abuse?
  2. I don't think it adds any value. I'd just address the exact problem and leave it at that.
  3. I wouldn't worry about those 3 weeks too much. In some very rare cases officer can try making that point, but it's very very improbable. More importantly: - You will likely get denied if on 03 NOV 2024 you weren't married for 3 or more years - Some users were denied by applying on the very first day of their 90 day early window. This may or may not be a problem. If we could go back in time, I would have advised you to apply on Monday, November 4th or later instead. Overall, I give about 95% you'll be fine.
  4. As far as I know interviews are conducted individually? Also, I was under impression your mother can still attend the interview as scheduled and send medical exams in later as required. That way nothing needs rescheduling. But then, once both parents get their visas they can enter the US together. Some things are just out of your control. For example, even if you reschedule interviews, one parent may take longer to get approved than the other. I see no benefit of rescheduling interview to be on same day, just like I mentioned earlier I think they'd be interviewed separately anyways. Others can correct me.
  5. This means everything is doubted and your case is pretty weak at the moment. That's a serious RFE. What all did you submit in terms of evidence?
  6. Husband will always be the main sponsor and has to file I-864, regardless of current or past income. Immigrant's US based income can be used if it will continue after becoming permanent resident by filing I-864A. I'd still recommend finding a qualified joint sponsor.
  7. I wouldn't expect approvals in less than 2 months. Yes, looks like packages are being opened and obvious problematic cases are being rejected
  8. Just like estimates, this status is highly unreliable. I'd be prepared for everything. Unless GC is being produced nobody can guarantee interview was waived.
  9. You can apply now. You have to provide scans of front and back of GC. You can wait for new GC in the mail or scan current GC. It would be less confusing if you waited for new GC, but overall should be OK to scan expired conditional GC.
  10. Then it can take up to 60 days. Typically 2-6 weeks.
  11. Oh man those are expensive! I hope they get it fixed and you get good service.
  12. Oh no, sorry to hear. What brand?
  13. See the list above in my updated comment. You can also include photos of you together with friends and family over the time. You can include birth certificates of children if you have them. Important stuff: all documents should be in full, ideally not redacted or altered. Not just 1 doc, as many over the time as you can produce. At least this is what I-751 instructions ask for. Good luck!
  14. Of course, you need to provide as much evidence of bonafide marriage as you can. This includes but not limited to: - Full monthly or quarterly statements from joint bank accounts - Full copy of lease agreement(s) over the years showing both of your names - Full copies of tax return transcripts from IRS website showing you file taxes together (Married Filing Jointly) - Copies of DLs / state IDs showing matching address - Full insurance policies showing both names - Flight and hotel reservations showing both names
  15. I'd hire somebody to do translations. There's tons of cheap services who do this professionally and have all necessary templates. My translation was side by side document with original on left and translated version on the right. If the stamps in passport show entries to the country your spouse is from, this is actually valuable evidence for spousal visa.
  16. Please read my previous replies. He doesn't need to register if he was over 26 when he got GC.
  17. No set list, but you may be asked about addresses where you lived, who pays the bills, how much is a typical bill or rent you pay. You may get asked names of relatives on your spouse side. You may get asked about layout of your place, significant other's habits etc. Make sure to take your spouse with you.
  18. If you count time to enter the US, then K-1 may be 3-6 months faster. If you count time to get GC, spousal route is probably 6-9 months faster. If you count the expenses, CR-1 is probably $1500-2000 cheaper (don't have exact numbers, sorry). K-1 is easier to deny.
  19. G-1145 is not reliable, works half of the time. In addition, set up USPS Informed Delivery to monitor any incoming mail to your address. It's free.
  20. This is good initial evidence of relationship.
  21. Did beneficiary file DS-260?
  22. Agreed, it's pretty hard to develop marital evidence with no EAD and SSN, which hinders opening bank accounts, getting DL etc.
  23. But it depends on I-751 speed? Technically, can't USCIS say that we'll sit on N-400 until I-751 is adjudicated, and by the way normal processing times for ROC is 44 months (just as an example). It could make sense for a regular case, OP's history is messy with I-751 denial. I'd really focus on solving that and even filing WoM if it gets stuck VS trying to get new clean N-400 pulled into this mess.
  24. It was fast tracked because of elections year. Why would it be fast tracked now? I don't see next administration having urgency to naturalize people. Probably more checks in places in general too. How would class action apply to new cases? Thanks
