    She should absolutely get a lawyer. Deportation is not fun. Unless you're planning marrying her, I wouldn't get involved.

    Wait a little longer until you won't have to mention it at all (since you look back 5 years from the day you file) Arguably, you didn't start residing in the US until you came back from that trip.

    VOID prevents somebody trying to cash the check. I wonder if somebody USCIS wrote it after withdrawing funds. I wouldn't be too worrieried until 4-6 weeks passed. I see you paid $750, but when did you file?
  4. OldUser
    Wait, why would need extension letter for empoyer? All he he needs to show is unrestricted social security card and state ID / Driver's License for I-9 verification.

    Thankfully didn't get flagged as fradulent charge! Good luck!

    Yes, you're good to travel with expired GC and this valid original letter until May 20, 2026. Allow additional time when boarding flights back to the US, as not all airline staff is familiar with letters.

    That's amazing. So you don't have to worry about stamps for some time!

    +1000 Hence my question to OP about moving addresses which never got answered...
  9. OldUser
    Agreed, every GC has address where to mail it of found. Perhaps if @Ad & Ga doesn't want to wait (I wouldn't think this is urgent matter), this can me mailed with proof of delivery...

    No it's not true. I-485 will sit undecided in the queue of undecided I-485s however long it needs.

    Do not come to the US to adjust. It will be messy if USCIS assumes she had immigrant intent coming on B visa. DCF is already a fast track. AOS is long, expensive and limiting (cannot work, cannot travel for some time).

    @Vickys_Mom out of curiousity, how does one call a person without first name? Do they get referred to by last name by family members? If so, how do you distinguish who's being called if everybody in family shares the same last name?

    Yet another data point for @pushbrk.

    That's why I always recommend filing for N-600 https://finance.yahoo.com/news/florida-retiree-cant-claim-social-112200636.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=YW5kcm9pZC1hcHA6Ly9jb20uZ29vZ2xlLmFuZHJvaWQuZ29vZ2xlcXVpY2tzZWFyY2hib3gv&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAB2BX7avwMMqzPlSiyUt_OJHlq9b5Ig_YFk7dYQaPzyJvtDZzVHT6q95U8IIXrlNEUdFXTaB1iJvVESTvrvLgOhqBCLsN0yMfnJ3HIRaI1UzlGkvzAT2MbWX6M-M69ahS-a2bYgwcVHU0ank92b2g6of0zlzLYyHF1Gu-kwE1jKE

    I guess for some it's an opportunity to change it to something more pronouncable / recognizable. People try to fit in. Some Chinese or Polish names may be hard to read for example. Also, there may be some degree of bias when applying for jobs etc.

    You can roll a dice and get a better prediction on estimated time.

    90 day early filing works for both 3 and 5 year rule. If she didn't break continuous residence and meet physical presence requirements, she can file today.
  18. OldUser
    That's a very good point. Frankly speaking, all the other prior petitions other than I-130 and I-864 was also hers Especially I-751. But now it's 200% her responsibility to answer everything correctly and go through the process.
  19. OldUser
    The status online doesn't always show accurate information. Some people got GC in the mail while status showed “Case Was Updated To Show Fingerprints Were Taken” . If you moved and never received new extension letter, you could have missed other things.
  20. OldUser
    Thank you for clarifying. Keep the ties to the US (job, lease, assets, taxes), spend much more time in the US then outside and you'll be OK.

    If you're in a hotel lobby and trying to get to your room on the 20th floor... Would you take elevator (5 year rule) or would you climb the stairs (3 year rule)? Why do you want to make the interview potentially harder than it is? Your wife won't get any special reward going harder route. The end result is the same - citizenship. I just don't understand the question...
  22. OldUser
    I guess USCIS wanted to ensure ROC wasn't issued in error. As we know past approvals don't guarantee approval for subsequent petitions. Everything can be rechecked at any point in immigration.
  23. OldUser
    I heard of this happening before. I'm sure if a lawyer was present, IO wouldn't dare asking irrelevant stuff...
  24. OldUser
    Yes, questions about marriage can pop up during N-400 under 5 year rule too. It's just the depth of questions might be less compared to 3 year rule case. Naturalization is the last chance for USCIS to deport somebody. They can ask anything, even pertaining tourist visa visits from 10 years ago. Even if statutory period is only 5 years.
  25. OldUser
    Or maybe worth trying requesting 48 months extension which would be valid for another 2 years VS stamp for 1 year?
