    It's free with I-485. No reason to avoid it.
  2. OldUser
    Why does it matter? I-765 is just another type of ID.

    There's tons of useful information on this forum. Go through guides on VJ as well as relevant forums. Check 20-30 threads about similar cases and don't hesitate to ask questiins. You can do it!

    There's no wording such as "cumulatively" or "in total". IMHO this question should be interpreted literally. If in doubt, can list both in additional information section to be bullet proof.
  5. OldUser
    That is true This is not true. The reason why @Don0 will lose Philippines citizenship is due to their citizenship laws, not US.

    I think you need a lawyer. Misrepresentation and I-601 is not a walk in the park. One wrong move and you'll get denied and put in removal. One wrong move and you'll never be eligible for any immigration benefit in the US.

    That's normal for I-751 Yes, check here https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ Make sure to take your valid passport, expired GC and original unexpired extension letter. Allow extra time to check in for the flights. Can make copies of GC and extension letters if airline wants to keep it. That's it.

    I looked at the I-485 form, current edition. I believe the question OP is trying to answer is: "Provide your most recent address outside the United States where you lived for more than one year (if not already listed above)." I still believe this would be address B. Because this is the last address where OP lived for over one year. Address A was the last address where OP lived but only for 4 months. Neither address A or B would be listed in question about addresses in the last 5 years since the lookback would be 2018.
  9. OldUser
    The question is straightforward. It doesn't ask you about the last address you used on previous forms. Only where you lived last.
  10. OldUser
    Of course. You cannot lie on the form.
  11. OldUser
    Address B obviously. That's where you lived last.

    WoM is the only solution that gives you some certainty. If you file N-400 nothing stops USCIS scheduling your interview when you're out of the US. WoM forces them to give you a decision within 60 days.
  13. OldUser
    Yes, there's definitely a risk of you missing the interview and getting denied. Usually you're supposed to have an interview letter and case status update. Usually USCIS gives a few weeks notice. That said, you never know when you're going to be approved or called for an interview. I watched cases around mine. Some were approved in November 2022. In January-February it got quiet. My friend got approved in May 2023. I had 2 trips between November 2022 and August 2023 when I got approved. I would've missed those trips for no reason. Was there a risk? Yes. Was it that big? No. If you only travel for 2-3 weeks, you should be OK.

    Agreed, death certificate is the last resort.

    I believe the filing fee is under $500. You don't have to pay over $5000 for a lawyer, it can be done yourself: Either way, your I-751 can be approved between now and year or two away. If you don't have urgency to naturalize such as: - Wanting to sponsor parents, kids etc for GC - Wanting to take a job requiring US citizenship - Needing to travel overseas or move there for a year or more then you can just live with conditional GC and extension letter until USCIS makes a decision.
  16. OldUser
    WoM on I-751 is a possible solution.
  17. OldUser
    Not true. My I-751 got approved without filing N-400. I know somebody personally with the same story. Though, if end goal is naturalize quicker, then there is no point of waiting for I-751 approval. My timeline: December 2021 - I-751 sumbitted April 2022 - Biometrics reused August 2023 - I-751 approved
  18. OldUser
    Probably slow field office.
  19. OldUser
    Yes, I'd put the current address.
  20. OldUser
    This is generic. What do you think is holding your case? Do you have pending I-751? Where you ever married back in Nigeria? Did you seek an asylum in the US? Did you commit any crimes?
  21. OldUser
    AFAIK immediate relative still can be hit with misrepresentation, which makes them inadmissible? Then the whole I-601 comes into play.
  22. OldUser
    USCIS number is the same as alien number. It's printed on your GC. USCIS number is not the same as USCIS online account.
  23. OldUser
    You're not a permanent resident until GC is approved. Have you filed for EAD and Advance Parole? This is what you could have used in the interim, while I-485 is pending.
  24. OldUser
    Depends on your luck

    Yes, she won't be approved for citizenship under 3 year rule, given the divorce. She'd have to re-apply under 5 year rule herself.
