    This can be safely ignored. MyProgress showed 3 weeks until decision for N-400 on day of my oath.

    You need to list both, mother and father. You can list father in part 3 and mother in part 4. Or you can list mother in part 3 and father in part 4 As instructions say, it's best to list mother in section 3 if she's the US citizen.

    Filing or not filing for EAD has no direct correlation with adjudication speed for AOS.

    One clarification. There's several types of tax transcripts on IRS website: account transcripts, wage & income transcripts and so on. What is immigration interested in is tax return transcript.

    How did she get "Ruano" added? Is it her married name? If so, no need to update birth certificate. Marriage certificate would explain the name change. Birth certificate is typically issued once in lifetime and name stays the same. Unless there was mistake with name originally, which cause to change name on birth certificate.

    Did invite also say '**No Guests**' in your case? Glad it worked out, but imagine taking people with you (they may need to make time for this) to only discover they cannot be present at oath ceremony? I think it would be a rude thing to do, but it's just me.

    No typical. Each case is unique.

    Normal. My ceremony didn't allow guests. Guests can meet you after to celebrate. Good luck!

    Additionally, there's always outliers who get scheduled way faster than others.

    If your I-130 is not approved and priority date isn't current, you can't file for adjustment. As long as you maintain status, yes, you'll be able to adjust in the future.

    Verbal approval is not an approval, sadly.

    Yes you can travel, since you're not a US citizen yet. You'll have to list your travel dates when you return on day of your oath. Don't miss the ceremony though.

    Very good observation @Boiler @JeanneAdil @ukas0278 whoever is working from the US remotely already violated terms of their visitor visa. Realistically this has to be disclosed in future visa applications and if asked by CBP

    True. Also, worth noting the issuance of all F-1 visas is being paused AFAIK? There seems to be change to vetting process. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/27/trump-team-orders-stop-to-new-student-visa-interviews-as-it-weighs-expanding-social-media-vetting-00370501

    Education is expensive in the US. How are you planning on paying tuition?
  17. OldUser
    Are you looking for solution or justifying why you shouldn't do anything and leave it as is?
  18. OldUser
    Just follow advice:

    I-865 is form to update sponsor's address. How is it relevant?

    Got it, thank you. So are there any docs this lady has with middle name listed? If not, I guess she doesn't have middle name.
  21. OldUser
    Middle name or patronymic? Those are different things. If it's missing on birth certificate and passport (the real one for travelling, not internal ID in Cyrillic), then what makes you think she has middle name / patronymic? If she has it on some other docs, include in "Other Names Used" section. I don't see it as a problem.

    Most cases take 16-17 months. So you should expect movement in mid-late August 2025. If it takes faster, great. There's always minority of cases which get approved faster. It's luck. Don't we all wish our cases went faster?

    Don't worry! Interview is an opportunity to correct answers. You can prepare an errata sheet. It's a simple page with a table on it: form name, part number, question number, current answer, corrected answer. Let officer know before interview you have corrections to make and give them your errata sheet. That's it.

    E-2 is a nonimmigrant visa. Do you mean EB-2? When does visa expire? How much time do you have to activate it? If you have those 2 months or so, why not come together with family in 2 months for good?

    The whole point for checkbox on N-400 was to update SSA with citizenship status without visiting SSA. It worked for a limited time, and many citizens used it successfully. There are reports on Visa Journey people receiving new SS cards and having status updated for them automatically. However, earlier this year, Enumeration Beyond Entry (EBE), the technology enabling this, was paused. So now everybody has go go to SSA regardless of what they check on N-400. It doesn't make sense checking "yes" and providing SSN on N-400 form anymore. Details in my thread mentioned above, there's a lot of materials going to specifics.
