  1. MyProgress is not something I'd trust. Here's recent example: I remember somebody reporting myProgress showing 7 months to decision on the day of their oath.
  2. All depends on other country rules and wife's paasport. For example, if she transits through UK, she may need a transit visa. Explore all rules before booking flights.
  3. Coming back shortly after departure from the US is a flag that can lead to questions and potential visa / ESTA revocation, regardless of country you went to. Whether it's Mexico or Australia, if you come back to the US too soon, it's a risk.
  4. It's good for everybody honestly. I got it on work visa, then used it while removing conditions. Still have it, it's great. By the way, many credit cards (even some no fee cards) cover Global Entry, if you don't want to pay out of pocket.
  5. You cannot read into it at all. Here's example:
  6. Also, do you have I-751 pending?
  7. Did you move since filing?
  8. You can skip it for now, but long term, it's highly recommended. Here's example when somebody was asked for it while renewing their US passport: Here's the reason to apply: If you're not ready to pay, at least tell the child so they can apply themselves when they start making money.
  9. If you see the latest messages in this thread, everything worked out for OP.
  10. Also, just like with stock market, just because people's I-130s took 14 months 3 months ago, doesn't mean it will be for filers filing later. USCIS can have internal changes affecting processing times.
  11. The more the better. When you're too close to required minimum, this may trigger RFE asking for joint sponsor.
  12. I'm surprised you didn't upload or bring tax transcripts with you. I thought most users on VJ know this. Glad it all worked out and thank you for posting your experience!
  13. I don't think you're reading this correctly. It needs to be blue and checked like Step 2 to show it's completed. All it's saying is the next step is interview to be scheduled. I don't believe your interview is scheduled yet.
  14. No estimates are accurate, sadly, as they rely on past performance to predict future. Each case is unique and USCIS changes priorities all time.
  15. Your household size is who you claim on your taxes as a dependant or file taxes jointly with. Your income looks way too low to sponsor anybody. I'd recommend increasing it by at least $20K. Otherwise you may need a joint sponsor.
  16. Looks like OP is playing games with taxes to minimize them. It's pretty much tax fraud and illegal. It won't be looked at favourably by USCIS.
  17. Oh wow that's fast! Where did you see it? Which office?
  18. Looks like they changed their mind about biometrics. E.g. it's reused now. But keep us posted.
  19. No entry is set in stone either. CBP can always deny it
  20. Not reject but deny. These two words mean different things. Yes, there's always possibility of denial.
  21. Yes, it is naturally slower.
  22. Adjudicators live in this country and can guess that even though minimal requirement is $25500, living on that in New York City, San Francisco or LA will be drastically different to living somewhere in rural Louisiana. They can check prices / rents by ZIP code you provide in your address. Not sure if anybody actually does it, but I wouldn't be surprised. Unless you can convince your income is enough to sponsor somebody or have a qualifying joint sponsor, no GC will be issued, sadly.
