    That's pretty much what you need to prove documentally to get N-400 approved. Otherwise, USCIS will think you should go N-600 route (which you also need to prove). If you cannot prove either, you cannot get US passport.

    Your father having or not having US passport doesn't change the fact he was a US citizen. Because he was a US citizen, USCIS is trying to establish whether your should go N-400 or N-600 route. The fact you got visa, Green Card doesn't mean USCIS won't doubt their prior decisions. They may be thinking you were granted your visa and GC in mistake, whereas you may be already a citizen. I'm sorry you're going through this but the burden of proof is always on you whenever seeking any immigration benefit from US government.

    Well, unfortunately it's not an easy case. You actually have to do some legwork and get the documents required. Besides looking at website, did you do anything else to get the paperwork? I'm surprised you're not entitiled to get documents pertaining your deceased father. You're an immediate relative after all. What about your mother? Is she still alive? Can she help with any of this paperwork?

    Any of the three can happen: - Another RFE - Notice of intent to deny (NOID) - Outright denial

    It sounds like you need to convince USCIS you're not a US citizen by descent. Perhaps a lawyer can help building the response? You need some proof your dad moved to Canada as a child, attended school etc and wasn't eligible to transfer citizenship to you.

    Some data points: I hear issues using assets a lot from people on YouTube immigration show, and I watched all 593 episodes so far, so about ~600 hours of content or more. It is natural to go the easier route, but it doesn't always work with USCIS. You can give it a try, but have joint sponsor lined up. The worst case you'd lose some time because of RFE.

    It is possible, especially if you have ESTA. But as you may know, entry is discretionary on non-immigrant visa or ESTA.

    It can take 4-6 weeks to get letter in the mail after USCIS receives the case. It's way too early to worry.

    You were given wrong information. If you read VJ, you'll see people complaining occasionally that they only see some not all evidence in their account for IOE cases. This proves evidence is scanned. Official guidelines discourage use of highlighters: "Do not use highlighters or correction fluid or tape. The scanners we use will not properly read information that is greyed out, highlighted or corrected using correction fluid or tape."

    My personal opinion only: it's best to stick one name. Either both GC and passport should have married name or both should have maiden name. Mixing names is not practical in everyday's life. You should apply for GE using name on your GC.

    Why not update passport first with married name and then apply for GE?

    When OP applied in 2021 the extension letters were either 18 or 24 months. So once it expires, you need to get a stamp.

    Bring everything. You don't want to be lacking evidence if officer decides to ask you for some.

    Same packet as I-485?
  15. OldUser
    When did you file I-765?
  16. OldUser
    Not a problem. Can always give up to date list at N-400 interview

    Congratulations! For privacy reasons you were better off blurring the last 5 digits of case. The first few digits can be guessed based on when you filed (December 2021)

    You can also look into internship programmes (there's very few), which often mean coming on temporary J-1. If you do well, employer can sponsor you for H-1B. Another option is to get bachelors degree at a US university, work on OPT and see if an employer is willing to sponsor you then.

    There's no downside to listing that shorter version of name on the forms. No need to indicate whether account is active or inactive. He was asked for details, and he provided them.
  20. OldUser
    You mean I-129F? My understanding is your packet will get rejected and you'll receive it back within 4-6 weeks.

    Consider finding a joint sponsor. Assets are harder to get accepted, especially beneficiary's assets.

    When married, the only valid options are: - Married Filing Jointly - Married Filiing Separately Filing Single is not an option when you're married.

    If you have valid green cards, you should be able to reenter. Especially with one way tickets, employment in the US and the US citizen kid. Usually a US citizen child doesn't grant any benefits for parents on tourist visas etc, but you're LPRs. Bring all the paperwork, stay cool, friendly and firm so CBP sees you're coming for good.

    I think your evidence looks good. Co-mingled finances and joint leases is exactly what USCIS looks for. I-751 instructions ask for evidence since date of marriage but many sent only evidence since becoming LPR and got approved.

    4-6 weeks after approval
