  1. I wouldn't go without a lawyer personally. I actually had a lawyer for my straightforward case with no issues.
  2. They may be concerned whether her marriage which gave her GC was legitimate or fradulent just to get immigration benefit. Are you taking lawyer with you?
  3. Probably related to OP got conditions removed based on joint filing while relationship was not going well + got pregnant right after removal or conditions @loveisall are you going to interview with a lawyer?
  4. This is more related to Germany's visa policy than to US immigration. There may or may not be special rules for contractors like this. I'd assume you need a visa, but others can confirm
  5. There's a lot of nuance there. If foreign country is place of current residence, then 6 months. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-5-collect-financial-evidence-and-other-supporting-documents/step-7-collect-civil-documents.html/
  6. I doubt you'll be given any sort of visa to the US. Either she moves to you, or you both move elsewhere other than the US. Or you divorce if you're too tired to carry on.
  7. The traacripts USCIS is interested in are Tax Return Transcripts from IRS website, they can be downloaded for free. It looks like they're not sure he's eligible to sponsor. What was his income in 2024? Do you have a joint sponsor?
  8. It's always best to. In case if AOS rejected or denied, you'll have status to fall back to. If you don't maintain F-1, you may become out of status if denied, and subject to deportation. Recently quite a few people got NTAs pretty quickly after AOS denial. Biometrics for AOS is just the beginning of the process. You may have to wait for months to learn whether you're approved or denied, and probably have an interview too. By the way, even before COVID, maintaining status was recommended by my lawyer when I was adjusting. Now it's even more recommended.
  9. Yes, whenever you see a shield next to logo, this means member is a moderator (there's several types)
  10. Probably not only filled, but also filed. N-400 cannot be filed just for the interview. It's for the whole thing over again, including biometrics, interview and oath. Sadly that's the way it is, when spouse is no longer around (passed away or divorced), applicant cannot get citizenship under this streamlined process
  11. No No. You can include table of contents and that's pretty much it. No need to justify why you're adjusting. There is a guide on Visa Journey. The more the better. Anything above 40K, as long as you don't have dependants or alimony to pay is OK. Here's official numbers https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p Good luck!
  12. You can adjust. Include old and new evidence from both UK and US. The biggest hurdle may be showing financial capability to support for I-864
  13. Apparently, more people are scheduled for biometric appointments. Reusing biometrics was introduced due to COVID. Prior to that, everybody went to do biometrics in person. Seems like the policy is getting reversed back to normal.
  14. Maybe that's why you're called for biometrics. If those were crimes of sexual nature, you may not be eligible to sponsor anybody for visa.
  15. Civil surgeon will determine whether these are safe to administer or not. You don't have a choice. Either waiver (on which grounds) or you have to take it (unless health official determines it is not safe). The idea is, every immigrant entering the US should not pose health risk to US population. That's why the requirements are strict.
  16. Did you have any crimes in your background?
  17. At least you got understanding of what N-400 interview is like @Roxy&Ryan Thank you for the detailed experience here. Technically, you can still travel with 2 year GC and extension letter. However, even with 10 year approval put aside, airlines sometimes don't know what to do with extension letters and deny boarding. If you fly, you should pick a big airline and big airports. I cannot give 100% guarantee you'll have no issues, but usually it's OK to travel
  18. I'd argue it's the opposite. All of the USCIS cases I had took longer than initial estimate with exception of N-400 which took much faster than estimated. Those folks you mentioned were in 20% lucky, not 80% normal cases
  19. Anything under 12 months is quick when it comes to USCIS
  20. This was kind of sadly predictable based on earlier threads Joint sponsor. I know some folks on VJ would be promising good results with assets, but you had over a year to secure a qualifying joint sponsor.
  21. You won't find it if you never filed a case before. Leave blank.
  22. What do you mean by "covis" in the title actually?
