    Congrats! Many people get worried about status not being updated. Your case is a prime example of online status not being that important. USCIS handles the case whenever they get to it, with or without status updates leading to that. If you use USPS Informed Delivery, watch for letter from Lee's Summit Production Facility. It shows tracking before USCIS posts tracking info in their status.

    Agents give false info all the time. 2 and 3 are logical. You have California Service Center. Green Cards and extension letters are physically produced at Lee's Summit Production facility. When your GC will be approved, that address is going to send your GC too.

    You're not providing and you're not expected to provide child support for a kid while you're in a marriage living with both spouse and the kid.

    By the way, if you have USPS Informed Delivery, you'll see letter from Lee's Summit Production Facility. This is your GC. You may see tracking there days before tracking will be posted in your USCIS status.

    If you search the forum, you'd see this question popping from time to time. AFAIK nobody had issue entering on old GC and extension letter. At least nobody reported issues. All replies were success stories.

    Do you get tax refunds? If yes, do they just go into your account? How do you file taxes? Married Filing Separately or Married Filing Jointly?

    AFAIK there is no rule forbidding somebody to keep 2 GCs at a time. In fact, many do keep two cards due to conditional card and permanent GC. I removed my conditions on GC, and still have expired GC + extension letter extending its validity. OP can return GC during naturalization or next GC renewal, but I am not aware of requirements to return second GC. As long as OP doesn't lend it, sell it or misuse it, it's just another proof of status.

    There shouldn't be. US citizens can enter the US without special procedures AFAIK.

    You should only carry the one with May 2034 expiration. You can apply for renewal 6 months before in expires, unless the rules change in the future. As to the second card, you can either keep it in a safe place just in case or send back to USCIS with letter explaining in detail why you don't need it. The address is on the card.

    This is a very interesting story. Does the "Resident Since" date match on both cards? If yes, I'd say GC based on approval of ROC is the correct one (expiring May 2034). The one that came later based on I-90 is not correct. USCIS should have not given you 10 year GC when you requested correction to 2 year GC. None of this matters much if you Resident Since date is correct and match on both cards and if you apply for citizenship before they expire.

    In general, joint accounts for common expenses make a lot of sense, even with immigration out of picture. With bills and rent / mortgage being biggest expenses in most families, it just gives a good overall picture where the money goes... How do you file taxes @ram1009 and which account do you get tax refund to (if you get any)?

    Good luck! Do they perform oath on the beach? That would be so cool 😃

    If she's inside the US, photos are not required. She may need to attend biometrics appointment though.

    For #1, Just update address online now, it's a 2 minute task for AR-11. Sending letter for I-865 takes a bit more effort, but again if you have stamp and envelope at home, just print out form, fill it and post today. It's a 20-30 minute task. This way you both did what you're required to do. Better late than never.

    I-751s take 2-3 years nowadays. There's a reason everybody get 48 months extension letters. There's few options for her: 1) Apply for N-400 if eligible 2) Try reaching out to USCIS through senator 3) Sue USCIS for decision 4) Simply wait

    It typically shows few days before delivery. Not sure if it shows as soon as USPS has is it in possession.

    It's been almost 5 years since COVID. The shots are now issued routinely just like flu shots. I got both flu and COVID shot recently and flu shot hurt the hand more than COVID. It's unlikely requirement going to be dropped any time soon if ever.
  18. OldUser
    Yes

    USCIS tracking lags behind USPS Informed Delivery. It's a known thing. If it's GC, you should expect letter from Lee's Summit Production Facility. I don't fully understand the question.
  20. OldUser
    She only need to send GC when USCIS requests it, towards the end of I-90 process. Don't send original card! Only send copy of it with I-90 filing. She's not asking for fee waiver.
  21. OldUser
    Couldn't agree more. I use credit cards in 98% of places. USCIS is NOT one of them.
  22. OldUser
    USCIS typically cares about hardship to US citizens.

    Congratulations!

    Yes, can't beat you when it comes to detail on I-290B 😃 In my prior comment I didn't separate I-290B and review of I-485 since I-290B without decision on I-485 is not that useful. Sometimes the case is just so messy like a house after hurricane that requires rebuild (I-485) instead of fixing (I-290B). In OP's cases I-290B can work as well as I-485. I'd say motion to reopen is the right one. USCIS did everything right. Perhaps @Family can elaborate.
  25. OldUser
    Correct me if I'm wrong, entire case is reviewed including I-693 (or DS-3025) etc when filing I-290B. It's not like something is gonna be skipped. Hence my research on I-693 validity.
