  1. You can use the AOS application process to change her name. See my comment in the thread below as to how we did it for Jaycel:
  2. You do not bring both Tax Return Transcripts AND Tax Returns You bring EITHER the Tax Return Transcript OR the complete tax return (all pages, all schedules, etc.) AND the W-2s & 1099s. I highly recommend using the Tax Return Transcripts as USCIS and the Embassies strongly prefer those. If you use those, there is no signature on them. If you use the tax returns and W-2s & 1099s, if you E-Filed, I would imagine you write "E-FILED" in the signature field and include the E-File receipt (I am not certain on this as I have exclusively used Tax Return Transcripts - Maybe another member can comment on the proper procedure for E-File)
  3. Yes, you can file the I-485 and I-765 at the same time. We just got Jaycel's EAD Card in the mail in January. She entered the country on the K-1 Visa in August. It took just about 5 months from when she entered the country until she got her EAD card.
  4. For sure... The previous version specifically said I-129F in that section: "Person admitted to the United States as a fiance(e) or child ofa fiance(e) ofa U.S. citizen, Form I-129F (K-1/K-2 Nonimmigrant)"
  5. The I-693 contains the your vaccination records. The name of the form is: I-693, Report of Immigration Medical Examination and Vaccination Record
  6. And proof of current income is king. What you are doing by submitting the payslips and letter from the employer satisfies that
  7. USCIS strongly prefers the Tax Return Transcript… and you do not send in W-2s or 1099s if you submit that transcript
  8. Yes... It's almost certain you selected "Spouse of a US Citizen" instead of "Person admitted to the United States as a fiancé(e) or child of a fiancé(e) of a U.S. citizen (K-1/K-2 Nonimmigrant)." When you check the first box, they look for either a concurrently filed I-130, I-140, I-360 OR a I-797C (Receipt or Approval Notice) from ONLY one of those forms. Since you did not have one they rejected the application. When you check the "Person admitted to the United States as a fiancé(e) or child of a fiancé(e) of a U.S. citizen (K-1/K-2 Nonimmigrant)." they look for your I-797C Approval notice from the I-129F
  9. Agree with @OldUser above. Besides... Montreal, where all Family Based Immigrant Visas are handled, is notoriously slow.
  10. NVC Public Inquiry form: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html
  11. HAHAHAHAHA they have that "Urgently Refreshing the Tracking Info Sensor" on the website
  12. This was both of us waiting to see where Jaycel's was... but it actually paid off. We got the delivery notification and I went running up to the mailbox. As i got there, I saw the mail carrier driving away to go to the other mailbox group in the apartment complex. I opened our mailbox and.... NO delivery from USCIS!!! So I go running down to the other set of mailboxes, showed the carrier the email confirmation and told him that it was not in our mailbox. So he came back up and opened the whole section of boxes and pointed to our box and said, "See? It's right..... uh-oh....". Turns out he put it in the box above ours 🤪 So our obsession with the tracking actually paid off in this instance
  13. Did your spouse E-File? If so, the Tax Return Transcript should be available in 21 days or less. Mine was available 14 days after E-Filing
  14. No... If they want them, they will ask for them. If you get scheduled for an interview however, bring them with you there
  15. I believe that if they determine you need an interview for the I-485 then your case gets transferred to the local field office closest to you
  16. Most if not all I-765s filed concurrently with I-485 are processed entirely at the NBC.
  17. Ours are IOE cases also..... That means they were scanned in at the lockbox and are now reposited in the electronic filing system at USCIS “IOE” stands for Integrated Operating Environment. It just means that your case being processed electronically instead of paper work. Nothing else, processing time and other features are the same in comparison to other receipts numbers.
  18. I want to say that you can and that's why they want you to submit that neon colored paper on top so that they know it's a resubmission, but I don't know that for sure. I think @KoreaninHawaii had a successful resubmission
  19. We Put a cover letter for each form we filed. If you go to the first post in the November AOS Filers Thread, You can see what we put in ours
  20. Thank you for catching me on that! I assume people know that rule and I shouldn't assume that
  21. I-130 requires 2 passport-style photos of the US Spouse Petitioner and 2 Photos of the Foreign Spouse Beneficiary to be included I-485 requires 2 passport-style photos of the foreign spouse applicant I-765 requires 2 passport-style photos of the foreign spouse applicant I-131 requires 2 passport-style photos of the foreign spouse applicant
  22. For your category these are the correct forms with I-765 & I-131 being optional
  23. What is the category of the AOS? Marriage to a US Citizen? If so, was it from a K-1 Visa or no?
