  1. Never heard of this status. Please keep us posted.
  2. What's step 4? No way to know whether USCIS will waive interview or not. When waived, you get a decision instead of interview notice.
  3. 99% no it wouldn't be a problem
  4. You can either keep waiting or file WoM. Contacting congressman also works sometimes.
  5. Passport / Reentry permit / Refugee travel document expiration in less than 6 months may be a problem.
  6. ^^ This. Need to collect as much evidence of good faith marriage as possible. Then file for divorce in preparation for I-751 with divorce waiver filing. The time to file for divorce was yesterday...
  7. After 10 minutes it's impossible to edit post. If it's new, click on three dots and select Edit
  8. Only mention / give them if USCIS officer asks for it. By default just give your current GC and passport. Good luck!
  9. Yes, it's acceptable. I used affidavits in one of my petitions. I drafted them and the people signing them made a few corrections. My case got approved.
  10. So you're OK living limited life with possibility of deportation in the future? That's an uncertain future most of people are scared of.
  11. Well, RFE was issued nevertheless. While optional, USCIS can issue RFE to see all 3 if they doubt the sponsor is eligible.
  12. Yep. Don't volunteer it but take just in case. I'll take US passport over expired GC any day. I'm secretly hoping I'd get to keep my old too lol.
  13. You cannot cancel I-130. It belongs to petitioner. It's also approved, not sure if it's possible to withdraw it. Also, the probability of another J1 after approved I-130 is low.
  14. All cards issued by USCIS. This could be Advance Parole, Employment Authorization Document, Re-entry permit, Refugee Travel Document, Green Card etc. The reason why is because it's not your property. It's a property of US government. The chances are small that immigration officer will ask for all of it, but he / she has the right.
  15. You can, but joint accounts etc are expected when adjusting status in the US, not consular processing CR1 / IR1 visa
  16. If you think into the future, I-485 requires birth certificate. I-129F without Adjustment of Status is not really useful. I'm flagging this so OP can prepare for the next steps, which is easier when beneficiary in their country of origin and can request / find / translate Birth Certificate.
  17. Yes, I would be worried.
  18. The countdown to decision is a made up number. I wouldn't rely on this.
  19. May 2004 to August 2024, only 20 years, sounds blazing fast for USCIS! Jokes aside, good timeline if it's 2024. Thanks for sharing.
  20. You cannot get naturalized in the 90 day winsow. So add that to wait time. Plus if you have pending I-751 that could slow things down a bit
  21. How well above is your income the 125% of poverty guideline? It's not unusual for USCIS to ask for 3 tax returns in this process. You may consider finding a joint sponsor with 3 years of income exceeding the guideline. You either provide W2s and bank statemements OR tax return transcripts , as far as I know
  22. There's real distinction based on the rule you applied. What box is checked for Question 1 - Reason For Filing on N-400 form?
