  1. Is this just for address section? You should list date you started living there, which would be in 2020. What did you put in your AOS paperwork? There was similar question there I think on I-485
  2. I'm suprised you would not be allowed to renew earlier. I never heard of such restriction in other countries. Typically these are just guidenlines when one should consider renewing passport, not a hard rule. Many countries require valid passport that has at least 6 months left until expiration. I renewed my countries' passport 2 years before expiration without an issue. Try renewing first. Worst case you can bring new passport to interview in consulate and use it on DS-160
  3. To eborate ... Example interaction: Officer: How long was your drive today? Applicant: Yes Officer: Explain the meaning of "allegiance"
  4. This is typically asked if adjudicator feels like applicant doesn't speak good English or doesn't fully understand things. They can ask for random definition of any word in questions, yes. I wasn't asked any of that but was ready for it.
  5. I would argue with this advice. 1) There is no such form I-175. There is form for Removal of Conditions named I-751 2) I'd get to the US first and then file I-751. What's the expiry date on your green card? If your card is still valid you need to jump on the plane like now and head back to the US before it expires. Take the first available flight, even if it means leaving in the next 24 hrs. This is very time sensitive. And you must file I-751 as soon as you touch the ground in the US. Throw money at the problem and do it urgently now if you can, otherwise you're at risk of losing your status or being in limbo status which will cost you even more
  6. Somebody in attached thread got dinged for 2 months. OP was apart for 6 weeks, 1.5 months. I personally would be safe than sorry. If OP files after 3 years anniversary of being LPR, it appears they won't have this possible issue at all. It's all about waiting a bit longer.
  7. You can have many accounts but you only have one alien number, which you would use in N-400 form. You can always upload copy of I-751 receipt in additional evidence. Makes sense, thank you for clarifying.
  8. No, this doesn't make sense and can invalidate marriage in the eyes on USCIS
  9. However, OP had 6 weeks of not living together. Based on officer, this may be intepreted as break in marital union, thus not meeting conditions for naturalizing under 3 year rule. See the case attached above where somebody was denied.
  10. It is what it is, you can't hide it. It's important that you have evidence of spending time together and solid plan of how you'd live together once she finishes J-1
  11. All the information should be as of time you file forms, not as of future. So her current address is her current address, not where she'd live with you in the future. Same goes to household size. This depends on your taxes. Typically the size is you + any dependants you claim on tax forms + immigrant you're sponsoring
  12. Congrats! This is amazing, means they're aware of both pending cases
  13. I don't think you filed I-485 online. Even today, this is not available.
  14. You can try using account #1 or create account #3
  15. Fair enough. Let's see what OP says. I just don't see how one can enter and become LPR, unless they were on immigrant visa. AOS takes time.
  16. From what OP posted, spousal visa was the route.
  17. I'd interpret rules strictly and apply for citizenship after 3 year anniversary of living together in the US. This typically means no 90 day early filing. Example of denied case
  18. Sorry about that experience! I only had hold ups due to pending I-751, but nothing else described
  19. Sounds like a plan! There's really no rush to update SSA, I did it after receiving passport. But needs to be done.
