    Just a room in the same single family home / apartment or do you live at different addresses? This doesn't look good.

    Based on what you described, your case is headed to denial. ^ This is very optimistic ^ Find all evidence you have since start of marriage until today. Start looking for a lawyer. You will have to file a new, strong I-751 before you put in removal proceedings.

    You can just show up at SSA office and get an SSN despite checkbox on I-485. That's if you have EAD.

    Online status can be safely ignored. Did you have I-751 interview? Did you get an approval letter for I-751?

    Security reasons most likely, especially pertaining to zip files. For all digital forms, USCIS has to build web pages to get information from applicant. This probably costs money and time USCIS doesn't want to invest.

    Agree with @Mike E If you continue this pattern, you may be put in removal by CBP and rightfully so:

    Marriage for immigration benefit is fraud. Next logical step: he realizes marriage won't survive, divorces and files WAVA? Dating is important to learn who you're marrying in my modest opinion. Of course, not all societies work the same.

    Yes, this would be the only other option.

    It doesn't look like she's going to be residing in the US any time soon. Which makes maintaining her LPR status difficult and potentially expensive. By the time she graduates in 2.5 years who knows whether her plans would be living in the US? Maybe giving up LPR status and using ESTA on British passport to occasionally visit you in the US is the solution in the meanwhile? There may be sacrifice needed somewhere: either US immigration should be prioritized, or university / boyfriend / life in Canada.

    No worries, let us know how it goes. If you file AR-11 online, you will get confirmation instantly, which you can save to a file or print. In my opinion, it's cheaper and faster to file another I-865 by sending a letter then spend time on talking to USCIS and trying to get it corrected.

    Where did you read it? Biometrics fee is required for I-751 filers. $680 is the right amount. The instructions tell: "$595. You must also pay a $85 biometric services fee for each person applying to remove conditions on their residence on the same form. See the detailed fee table below."

    Send another I-865? Did your wife also file AR-11?

    First of all, if she doesn't have tourist visa - she'll have to fill the forms and indicate you as a relative in the US. Based on this, most likely her B2 visa will be denied, because she'd have stronger ties to you than to her home country. Secondly, even if she somehow obtains visit visa or uses existing one, she may be asked by CBP about her travel plans when entering the US. Not many moms go to the US with toddler twins to do sightseeing. This is super obvious. There's over 90% chance she won't be let in. Thirdly, if she somehow manages to enter the US on visitor visa and files for adjustment of status - this can be viewed as an act of immigration fraud. To eliminate all the problems above, just file I-130 and go the normal, legal route. The least thing you want is for CBP is to question her, causing a lot of stress for her and kids and put her on a plane to fly back. Or have her found inadmissible during I-485 interview. Then she'd have to go through waiver.

    That's great, but also don't rely on this information heavily. It can jump to 8 months tomorrow again. Hopefully your case will be processed soon though.
  15. OldUser
    I'd not volunteer any information unless forms ask for it or she's asked at the interview.
  16. OldUser
    100% agree. For those stuck cases, USCIS scheduled or reused biometrics, closed the file, put it back in the box and wouldn't even look at for many months. I hope recent filers are luckier.
  17. OldUser
    She may be asked about the circumstances during her interview at the embassy, yes.
  18. OldUser
    Yes, sometimes this happens. You need to include copy of I-751 NOA with your N-400 and ask for combo interview in cover letter. The worst case: you'll pass N-400 interview and will be waiting for I-751 to be approved. Not much downside because you're waiting for I-751 now anyway.
  19. OldUser
    I don't believe this is always the case. @Rocio0010 @Olga&Jared are good examples of when filing N-400 likely didn't have any effect on I-751. Overall, yes, filing N-400 makes path to becoming a citizen shorter, because you start with N-400 earlier and don't wait for decision on I-751. But I-751 itself takes whatever it needs to take in many cases in my opinion. Only when your I-751 wait is 24+ months, like @Crazy Cat's wife (44 months), then N-400 actually unblocks I-751. In short: I would file N-400 to naturalize faster, not with a goal of unblocking I-751.
  20. OldUser
    If you're eligible for N-400 and it's your ultimate goal to naturalize, you should file N-400.

    Was form G-28 filed? On the form there are check boxes instructing USCIS where to send notices, cards etc - you or your lawyer. Ask the lawyer for a copy if unsure what was checked on it, so you know where to expect letters from USCIS.
  23. OldUser
    Correct Correct, ex spouse is not a family.
  24. OldUser
    N/A or leave blank for both. It doesn't apply since the beneficiary is divorced. There's no current marriage.
  25. OldUser
    Current address, which is address in the US.
