  1. There's a tiny chance a birth certificate (if born in the US) or naturalization certificate (if naturalized) may be asked at the interview. Why doesn't she have birth certificate? This is a super important document to have besides for purpose of your N-400. What if she loses her passport tomorrow? How would she prove US citizenship?
  2. Get on a YouTube show instead and speak to Jim. Sounds like somebody doesn't understand it well and gives incorrect advice.
  3. I can give you any random number and it won't be any less accurate then USCIS estimator.
  4. Do not pay attention to estimated processing times, they're hugely incorrect. What type of appointment is it? Biometrics or N-400 interview? When did you file? Which field office?
  5. Smart choice. Speak to somebody else. Your existing card will be extended by 48 months from the expiration date. E.g. if it expires on 01/01/2022, it will be extended to 01/01/2026. Was this attorney member of AILA? I doubt it. You can search credible lawyers here: https://www.ailalawyer.com/
  6. Even people on non immigrant visas can get Real ID. Yes, you confuse it with enhanced DL.
  7. State ID (Real ID) is good for flying 100%. Regular state ID may be also OK, but you have to check rules. If you can get Real ID, get that. It's relatively cheap and doesn't require passing any exams. You can typically apply for it at DMV. You don't need any other document for flying domestically.
  8. Bonus questions: - did you file jointly or with divorce waiver? - if filed jointly, is marriage still OK?
  9. Have you moved since? Did you file AR-11? What visa do you mean? LPRs don't need visa to live in the US.
  10. Sorry you're going through this. 0. You remain a Lawful Permanent Resident until Immigration Judge takes it away from you. This means you continue having all benefits as GC holder until that moment. You should absolutely respond, explaining the situation. Even if denied, at least it shows the attempt to keep USCIS up to date. Keep record of what you sent them and proof of delivery. Perhaps you can ask your divorce attorney right a statement explaining the current state of things. They won't ask or suggest anything. You have to be proactive and refile with waiver if current I-751 is denied. Don't you have a driver's license? Especially if it's a real ID you can easily fly with that. Don't show GC anywhere unless you absolutely need to. Also, make sure to renew your passport ASAP. What if you must travel overseas for emergency? Many countries allow renewing passport online. No, if you're in removal you continue being an LPR as I mentioned in point #0. Do not show GC to employer. Use Driver's License or state ID AND unrestricted Social Security card for I-9 verification. Employers cannot force you to show GC unless you don't have unrestricted SS card and DL / state ID. If you don't have a state ID or DL get them tomorrow. If you don't have unrestricted SS card, go to SSA office tomorrow. It's time to act fast. You can do it!
  11. Yes, I-90 is the form to file. Do not send actual GC to USCIS unless you're asked for it.
  12. Bank statements IS one of the most important documents USCIS wants to see. They want to see comingling finances on a daily basis, not just jointly filed taxes or even property. Send everything you have. I sent everything from start of marriage since I-751 instructions ask for it.
  13. To be more exact: if you lie this can come up next time you try to get a visa or decide to get a GC in the US. Misrepresentation can make you permanently ineligible for any US immigration benefit.
  14. @CCCCCF the statements you submitted initially, did they have all pages in them? If there wasn't a question why you filed separately, I'd assume they're asking for evidence purely because it got a bit old and they wanted fresh evidence. Give the strongest response you can with evidence and hopefully you'll get approved.
  15. - What do you mean by buying time? - Once again, what was the reason for denial? Alleged fraud? Something else? - Why is the travel important right now, why not focus on immigration status you're losing? Tell us more and we can help. Tell us less and we can't help, because vague descriptions don't allow us to establish a fact pattern.
  16. I would never advice travelling until you sort out your immigration status. The likelihood of getting E1/E2 or B1/B2 after losing LPR status is very small. What was the basis for denial?
  17. Those estimated times is a joke. It's a random number not correlating to reality with all. Unless there's some issue, she'd naturalize in April / May. However, bear in mind, planning to adjust status while overseas before coming to the US on ESTA can be seen as fraud by USCIS. Adjustment is the worst option immigration wise. To have a clean immigration history and minimal chance of complications - marry and go spousal visa route.
  18. Based on my experience observing cases: - Estimated times is a joke. - Actively reviewed = nothing is happening.
  19. Wait, did you have I-751 interview already? Then why do you need a combo? Combo is combined I-751 and N-400
  20. This is normal, everybody's names are cut on tax return transcripts. I had no issue with this. Do not include one page of full return. Either include entire return + W2s or don't include full return at all.
  21. 1. No need for full tax returns. Only submit tax return transcripts. The reason not to submit full - it will confuse them and it will also require submitting other docs. No need yo submit W2s. 2. Why item g is singular? Do you have more than one statement? 3. What about gas, water, electricity etc bills? Phone bill is good. Overall good evidence, good luck!
  22. At this point, you're out of status? I'd consult with a lawyer, but your case seems complex and I don't see your getting O-1 easily if even possible.
  23. Others can correct, OPT can only be used immediately after completing studies and has to be secured in advance.
