    Wife is about to file N-400

    Apply under 5 years and that cuts your document list down significantly.

    Thank you!

    Your profile suggests 'Adjustment of Status'. Which makes it seem like she hasn't been a permanent resident for 11 years..

     

    My timeline is outdated. After receiving her conditional green card, I wasn't too active on the site.

     

    We had our AOS interview November of 2008. She left the interview with the stamp and we received the green card in December of that year.

    What isn't shown, was we removed conditions a couple years later. She was issued a 10 year green card. Her current 10 year green card expires in March 2021 and shows shes been a resident since 11/2008

     

    I'll fix our timeline later tonight, when I get home.

    Thank you!

    Thank you both for the replies.

    I have read the N400 instructions. Which is where I got my bullet points for the evidence to provide. I feel I have everything then.  Thank you for the additional information.

    I was under the impression she was eligible through the marriage. She has been in the country and we have filed joint tax returns every year. I would assume the 3 or 5 year rule would both apply. Shes been here 11 years, almost 12 come next April. With her longevity within the country, if a marriage filing is not accurate, then I guess the 5 year rule?  I can easily download additional IRS transcripts if necessary or provide bank statements, leases, etc for any time.

     

    I am probably just over thinking the whole process.

    I think we are ready to file, and planning to do so online.

    Going through the checklist..

    We have the following evidence:

    front and back scans of her Green card

    Scan of the front page of my Passport (USC)

    Our marriage license

    3 years of tax transcripts.

     

    We have been married almost 12 years at this point. There are no previous marriages and no long trips. Only 2 trips abroad and both trips were under 14 days ( we have re-entry stamps in passport).  There has been no arrests or even traffic citations.

    Am I correct in my evidence? or should I add more? Like bank accounts, etc? I just feel I am not giving enough. We also plan to pay using the online form. Will it matter if the credit card is in my name and not hers?

     

    I really appreciate any replies and/or help provided. I just want to make sure I am giving them all they need. Immigration always stresses me out.

     

    Taking a Cruise with new Greencard and have a question..

    in Off Topic

    Posted

    I hope I am putting this in the right forum. My wife and I are planning to take a cruise soon and we were curious about something.

    My wife's green card is in her married name, but her passport is in her maiden name (UKC).

    The cruise agent wants to book us under her married name since that is what her green card is under.

    Will we have any issues with traveling like this?

    Also the cruise stops for a day in Mexico, will we have any issues with immigration there?

    Thanks in advance for the help!

    Do we need to "update" social security card?

    My wife received her social security card after getting her EAD. She was approved in November for her conditional green card.

    Her social security card has the "valid for work only with DHS authorization". Do we need to go in and get a new card without this?

    My step daughter's social was issued after we received her conditional green card and her card does not have the statement on it.

    Credit card... joint and authorized user.

    Hydey, I couldnt ever get any of my credit card companies to turn my accounts into joint accounts. However I added my wife to every credit, bank, and savings account I had. At the interview all the officer wanted was our most recent bank account statement showing both our names and he took my most recent Chase credit card statement. On my Chase statement is breaks down the transactions per user. So my wifes transactions were showed seperate than mine. I offered him more and he said that was all he needed to see.

    Obviously each officer is different and may want different things, but he had no issues with my wife just being an authorized user and it not being a joint account.

    Must you adopt dependent of K-1 visa?

    My fiance came, we married and a couple of months later her 16 year old son came. We succesfully obtained an adjustment of status for her but now someone has said that I must adopt the son to get an adjustment of status for him. I have never heard of this; is it true that I must adopt him? Thanks in advance for any replies!

    No you don't have to adopt him. I adjusted my Wife and her daughter off of VWP. I never had to adopt her daughter. I adjusted them at the same time and they didnt ask any questions at all regarding my step daughter.
