To your question from another thread: This means all case numbers will be following a sequence, e.g. (not actual case numbers, to give idea): I-130 - XXXXXXX100 I-485 - XXXXXXX101 I-765 - XXXXXXX102 I-131 - XXXXXXX103 This would make tracking easier. Also, if you follow USCIS cases in online trackers, you'll notice USCIS sometimes approves / works actively on some blocks of cases and leaves out the other ones. I'd prefer for all of them to be reviewed together VS I-130 getting approved first and then crickets or I-485 being stuck because I-130 is not looked at. USCIS used to receive everything for AOS on paper. The times are changing, but you still may get more efficient processing by bundling it together. This is only an opinion. People file both ways.

I strongly advice sending together. It reduces the chances of cases being "disconnected" from each other. You want the whole thing to be reviewed together ideally. You'll also get sequential numbers for I-130, I-485, I-131 and I-765

What's the deadline for RFE?

Do you have I-751 pending?

Have you checked case tracker apps to see the cases around yours? There may be still some people waiting.

No wonder here, estimates are useless. It depends whether you're changing name (delay factor) and which field office.

I think you got good answers. This is RFE and you need to reply by deadline. If you don't have a lawyer and you don't want to involve one - no need to file G-28.

This is not a naturalization case.

Of course it's not enough.

Any romantic relationship with a US citizen, be it a girlfriend / boyfriend, fiance or spouse is a potential complicating factor when crossing the US border. They're pretty much equal in the eyes of CBP in terms of risk of staying in the US. Spousal visa is a much better choice overall compared to K-1. Pending I-129F is pretty much the same as pending I-130 when travelling to the US.

Starting April 1st, EAD (I-765) and AP (I-131) will require additional fees when filed with I-485. I hope it helps

People got naturalized while their estimate showed 7 months to decision. That's why I think it's very inaccurate. Don't worry, you'll get there and maybe even faster than estimate

You'll have to establish domicile in the US at some point. That's the only wrinkle that can add a bit of complexity.

This means the officer decides whether to accept it or not. For the most part, it gets accepted.

While for majority of cases the US citizen spouse would not be asked to participate in N-400 interview, it does happen in some cases. Even with I-751 approved. After all, citizenship under 3 year rule is based on marriage to US citizen. Even mere presence of US citizens spouse in the waiting area is another check box in IOs head confirming the marriage is going fine and reduces the chance of additional scrutiny. I'd rather be safe than sorry.

$1440 is just I-485 fee. I never wish anybody waiting for GC without AP and EAD, that's rough considering processing times.

Those numbers are meaningless

If your 90 day window opens tomorrow (March 3), then apply on Monday afternoon / evening or better Tuesday. One day isn't going to make much difference in processing time, but will ensure you won't be denied 6 months later due to silly error.

Just a photocopy worked for me. If it's in foreign language, you also need to provide translation. If you get called for an interview, you'll need to bring the original BC. You may get asked for it.

Not a good sign. How did it go?

Did she end up getting GC? She should receive it soon if both petitions got approved.

When filing I-90 I'd include: - Copy of back and front of GC - Copy of passport page and page with endorsed immigrant visa - Copy of boarding pass or reservation for that flight - Cover letter explaining why she should receive 10 year GC (including dates or marriage, entry to the US etc) Since it's their mistake, you do not need to pay a fee. Do not send actual GC with I-90!

If you know for sure she should have a 10 year GC, there's no need to file I-751

If you were married for over 2 years when she first entered to the US on spousal visa, then she should have received 10 year GC. You need to file I-90, even today. I-751 is not a valid form to file and it takes much much longer than I-90.

I'd be surprised if it's accurate
