  1. Fun fact: my I-485 took quicker under Trump than I-485s take nowadays under Biden. I'm by no means a Trump supporter. I just think no matter who's in power there's objective reasons why immigration is slowing down. It's simply the amount of people seeking immigration benefit (think asylum seekers, family reunions). And there hasn't been any changes in immigration system to support this demand.
  2. I don't believe this is an option. Between October 2022 and now there's over a year of your wife overstaying visit visa. She'll likely have a 10 year bar on entering the US if she leaves now.
  3. I doubt you can use just the reentry permit to enter Mexico. If there is nothing explicitly said about it, then it's not allowed.
  4. Nothing from your end is needed. Just patience. Can probably take a month or so based on wording.
  5. The Northern Virginia doctor was born in D.C. and given a U.S. birth certificate. At 61, he learned his citizenship was granted by mistake. Source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/11/25/virginia-doctor-passport-citizenship-nightmare
  6. When you apply for I-751 you get extension letter automatically within 4-6 weeks.
  7. I bet he just retired from Sacramento field office and has no motivation to post on VJ anymore. Jokes aside, I hope he's doing alright 🙏
  8. Hint: in the middle and in the center are not the same.
  9. What if they were consistent though? 🤔
  10. Imagine you got a stokes interview asking this question: "Which side of the bed do you sleep on?" What would be your answer?
  11. In-N-Out. Double double animal style
  12. I'm sorry for your loss. Usually expedite request wouldn't work in this situation but you can try.
  13. Agreed, the person on the phone may give incorrect information.
  14. The biometric appointment should only take 10-15 minutes. The interaction is pretty simple. From what I recall, you fill the form on paper asking for your name, date of birth and citizenship. Then you show ID, personnel takes your fingerprints. Something like that. You can try going together, but I'm not sure you're going to be let in.
  15. Cheers for the link mate 🙂 I found many sweets, mostly Cadbury, double cream for cooking and crackers in World Market (California). I'm excited to get some minced pies, jaffa cakes and other miscellanious stuff. May stop by a liquor store doing imports to get some Green Spot Whiskey. It's pretty smooth, love its taste and the price is moderate.
  16. I bet it does. Online printout is not exactly the same as printed version in the mail. Still, you should attend the appointment even if you don't receive it in the mail. How long ago was the biometrics appointment scheduled? It can take 4-6 weeks to get the paper in the mail, especially during holidays.
  17. Looks like you didn't check the right boxes on I-130 to tell whether this is an oversees case or adjustment of status in the US.
  18. You must inform USCIS about address change by filing AR-11. You can do it online after moving, it takes 5 minutes. Responding to RFE is not enough to update your address. I-865 must be filed on paper. Send two letters, one for RFE and one for I-865. It's not expensive, but you'll avoid a lot of confusion that can result from combining multiple forms in one letter.
  19. Hi, as long as your letter reaches USCIS before the deadline, you're OK waiting for few days until you moved to a new place. Make sure to file AR-11 within 10 days after moving. Your US citizen spouse (sponsor) would have 30 days to file I-865
  20. This is very unfortunate. I think somebody looking at your file clicked wrong buttons and generated multiple letters. I'm 90 % confident it was in the following order: - They scheduled ceremony - Then accidentally cancelled - Then fixed cancellation by scheduling again You should definitely show up at the place stated in the letter on the date and time. I can almost guarantee you'll be naturalized. People on the phone may not give you 100% right answer. I'd show up.
  21. Is the spouse has unrestricted SS card and DL that is still valid, those can be used for I-9 verification. No need to show the GC, in fact I never recommend showing it to employer.
  22. Seems like you did everything right on your end. USCIS is known to send letters randomly to physical address even if mailing address is provided. Moving during I-751 is always associated with some risk unfortunately.
