    OldUser reacted to JeanneAdil in Tunis consulate and k1 visa ?   
    18 months of absense is a long time to establish a "real relationship"
    How long were u together 18 months ago? 
    Does your tunisian family approve , especially your mother?
    Is she of child bearing age?
    this interview will depend on how well u can answer questions about your USC fiancee
    Do u know every little and big thing about her,  her family,  her life in the US?
     
    no instant denial
    its up to u to prove you love her,  like her,   and will build a life together in the US 
    Tunis approved 11 K1's in January and 5 in December

    Nothing will be decided without paperwork. You need to get all the divorce decrees, get all dates for all marriages and divorces etc etc. You can certainly hire a lawyer, but will still have to do a lot of work yourself.

    Your post is in the "adjusting from tourist, work and student visas" You can read about people going through similar circumstances.
    I've posted a very popular thread and some more recent threads below. 
     
    Here is one about a long wait for EAD... (you can read about the different waiting times and experiences in this thread). 
     
    This person overstayed their tourist visa and is now adjusting:
    Here is a happy AOS from tourist visa story:
    Process is not standard. You might get your green card in 2-3 months or you might have to wait 12+ months. You can read about the different experiences so you know what to expect (worst and best case scenarios).

    People do it everyday and many reports on Visa Journey. It's the same process as filing AOS after getting married on K-1 visa. The only difference is I-130 and I-130A are required in packet. Plus I-693

    Finally had my interview today, for some reason the one above got cancelled and then re-scheduled a few days later but with a new interview date.  The interview was very conversational and began with the IO requesting for my green card, ID and passport. The IO asked if there were any changes since the application and I provided information on my new job. This was then followed by the english test then the civics questions. The IO then asked about my travel history since I got my green card and I talked about an 11 month trip I took in 2019-2020 where I basically got stuck in my home country during Covid. This trip was not mentioned on my form since it was outside the 3 year statutory period and the IO did not seem overly concerned about it. The IO then went over the yes no questions and then informed me that my application was approved. 
     
    I was then ushered back to the waiting room where a few minutes later we were called to a counter and provided with our oath ceremony appointment letters with the oath ceremony happening a week from today. My USCIS status also got updated fairly quickly and now shows " Oath Ceremony Notice Was Mailed"
        
    Thanks to this community for sharing your experiences and to all those still waiting, you got this!

    APPROVED!

    The USCIS immigration officer who conducted my interview today made the entire process very professional and straight forward. 
     
    Left at 7:30am from home. Arrived at 8:30am for a 8:45am interview. Rainy morning. My lawyer (also processed my AOS) was there. We were both dressed in a suit and tie.
     
    Based on a 5 year rule only option. 
     
    Before the interview I had to do fingerprints and picture (What is the picture and fingerprint used for?) at one of the booth.
     
    Interview started with writing in English and reading on the tablet and then the Civics test. I got the first 6 correct but don’t remember the questions. 
     
    Documents requested to show: Permanent Resident card, Driver License and Passport.
     
    I was NOT asked to show Tax Return Transcripts and Selective Service Systemregistration although IO said most don’t register for it.
     
    I was asked EVERY single Yes/No questions from the N-400.
     
    My employer name and what I do there? XYZ and title.
     
    When my mother became a USC? 2011. 
     
    How did she became a USC? Which was that my brother sponsored her. 
     
    What Visa I came into USA? B2.
     
    When did I become a PR? 2019
     
    The interview lasted about 15-20 minutes. 
     
    My lawyer interrupted the IO couple times because IO wanted clarification on the F11 on my PR card and said something about if I was F1 student.
     
    Then, the best part came: IO said she was approving my application. 
     
    Next, was some signatures on the tablet. Oath info was discussed. 
     
    Case Tracker shows: Interview was scheduled still. Does anyone know when that will change? 
     
    All in all my lawyer cost overall during this entire process was worth every dime and penny.

    https://www.casestatusext.com/ Based off their data, it appears USCIS is approving between 1-5 cases a day for March 2023 people. Some days I have seen 10+ approved lately. So they are working on them, albeit slowly right now.

    Yes, your GC will be taken during oath ceremony.
     
    It's unlikely you'll have same day oath because of name change.
     
    You can also apply for US passport with shorter timeline if you have a trip shortly after naturalizing.

    It's OK. Don't be worried, you lost it. You will be approved most likely.
     
    Ideally you should have filed a police report when you lost it. First, it's evidence, second - you may be a victim of identity theft in the future.
     
    When you renewed your passport, did country of your origin never ask about old passport?

    These estimates are pointless. Some got naturalized when their account showed few more months to decision. Some had to wait for months when estimate showed one day to decision.

    You needed an online access code for what? 
    Biometrics noticed are mailed to the patient. 
    Which biometrics notice?
    One that was mailed to you or one that you printed after creating an online account and finding your bio notice online?
    It = mailed or downloaded?

    Your post is unclear.
     
    Define "was needed"?
     
    Needed to complete the SERIES (even though only one vaccine is needed (excluding Covid) of each age appropriate vaccine to complete DS3025) because he WANTED to be fully vaccinated OR he received a waiver for any not completed and that would be marked on the DS3025 as such?
    His DS3025 would be marked complete if complete. He would not need any more vaccines.
     
    OR
     
    Is his DS3025 marked INCOMPLETE on the bottom left corner?
    If DS3025 is marked complete and IS complete, he can use it as his valid medical exam proof if he files I485 within 1 year of overseas medical exam date. Any vaccines received after overseas medical is unnecessary for immigration if DS3025 is marked complete.

    OldUser reacted to K1visaHopeful in All My Forms And Supporting Documents for K1/K2 AOS   
    I864 needs to be filed out for each immigrant. They are not exact copies so you cannot attach a copy of your K1s I864 to each K2s I485. Each K2 needs their own I864 with THEIR info as the primary immigrant. 
    If you actually join the VJ K1 AOS filing month for the month you will be filing and the month prior, you can get easy answers to all of these and you can look at many many many many coverletters.
    You can also look at the VJ guides. 
     
    Anything with an X is not needed and should NOT be sent unless marked with a question asking what you meant. I'm sure you can figure that part out as it's likely just a missnaming of a document. 
     
    Ensure you have read the instructions for every form. By what you've compiled, you've likely misunderstood the instructions for, especially the I864. How one fills it out is statistically one of the biggest errors in this process. How you fill it out AND what documents you send is based on your personal financial situation. Exact documents to support your exact amounts in the form. Nothing MORE and nothing LESS. Useless docs get you RFE.
     
    Lots of posts on the I864 and especially the generic RFEs one receives. Those will be good reads for you.
