    Many who recently submitted biometrics for other applications get them reused. At the same time, some get randomly selected just like passengers going through security at an airport.

    Good luck! If he applies under 3 year rule, your presence in the building is very beneficial. My spouse never attended biometrics appointment with me, that's not required. But interviews - yes.

    Don't overthink this. Just show up to the interview. I think you would've been better without filing FOIA, but the last thing you want is to introduce another change in your case. ~ Not a legal advice ~

    As long as you can prove it was under 180 days and you maintained ties to US (lease, banks) - there is no problem.

    You may want to consult with a lawyer. Based on what I understand so far, the kids are NOT US citizens and you need to file I-130 petitions for each of them. That will give them immigration visas to come to the US and get green cards .

    No it's not mandatory with initial submission, but it proves good moral chatacter and may speed up approval.

    1.5-2 years

    Were the kids born when you were a citizen for over 2 years already?
  9. OldUser
    Have you been a US citizen for 5+ years and lived in the US for 5+ years? If yes to both, the kids may be US citizens by birth. You may need to register their birth in US embassy (CRBA)

    Congratulations! N-400 are processed pretty quickly nowadays. It depends on local field office. Check here - https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

    Congratulations! This is what I mean when I advise applying for I-131 and I-765 for people on K-1 (I know your case is different). People think AOS takes 6-9 months, when in reality it can take forever like with your MIL

    Nice, problem solved 😊

    The timeline estimate is a random number. Nothing to worry about.

    Are you including the child in your I-751 petition? If yes, only one G-1145 is needed. Two G-1145 will likely confuse the USCIS. Half of the time those notifications don't even work.

    The thing is, they're unlikely going to bend the rules if one of their online agents tells you something but the staff on the ground disagrees. The online agents cannot be held accountable. That chat reminded me of chat with USCIS agents. They'll tell you anything to disconnect ASAP and move to next person. You can try bringing printouts and the carrier guide. If you make enough noise maybe they'll let your wife board the plane. But don't get banned by a major airline over trip to Cancun. Good luck!

    Ideally you should try getting the certificate if you can. It is a super important document to have in your life besides immigration and USCIS. I think you should be fine if the other document is accepted by USCIS according to the table. But as you know, sometimes USCIS denies cases wrongfully and you have to convince them to follow the law. The path of least resistance is to get what they want.

    So were the children included in their mother's I-751 or they have their own pending I-751 cases? There were boxes on I-751 to indicate whether they're applying with mother or separately.

    In a way, Mexico is a nice treat after receiving 10 year GC 😃

    Husband may be eligible under 3 year rule. How old are daughters?
  20. OldUser
    Awesome investigation! I wouldn't travel without visa while on GC and extension IMHO.

    Don't search for easy ways. The worst case you'll be asked for birth certificate in RFE or at the interview and will be pressed to show it very quickly. Do whatever you need to do to find / request new birth certificate from your home country. USCIS will need to see you birth certificate with probability of 99.9%. Unless somebody makes a mistake they need to confirm you are who you are. If you cannot get birth certificate, then you need to check if any other documents are allowed from Visa Reciprocity Table - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html/

    Blazing fast approvals 😃

    I got a feeling those agents have targets to serve X number of users per hour. They don't know much, don't have access to anything and want to spend as little time per person as they can. The phone line is similar, it is also known as "Misinformation hotline" by some.
  24. OldUser
    You need to send copies of both. If you send originals, you may never receive them back. Take them to the interview if you have it.

    Congratulations !!!
