OMG!

I got a little bit confused now. So If I file ROC during 90 days period before my conditional green card expires I will get extension letter in the next several weeks, correct? And than I will have to wait for around 1,5 year for the 10yr old GC to be approved, so technically I will be a resident in US for 3 years and once I finally get my 10-year-old GC isn't it a time to file for a citizenship since I would still be married to the US citizen and resident for 3 years?

You can file N-400 after being a GC holder for 3 years, regardless of GC type. So yes, your I-751 can still be pending when you apply for N-400. However, they can't adjudicate your N-400 while your I-751 is pending. It will force USCIS' hand to take action on your I-751 if you apply for N-400 while it's still pending.

Hello! I just opened instructions to I-751 and on page 6 out of 10 it says, the documents SHOULD include, but are not limited to, the following examples:  1. Birth certificates of children born during the time of this marriage, if any; 2. Lease or mortgage contracts showing joint occupancy and/or ownership of your communal residence; 3. Financial records showing joint ownership of assets and joint responsibility for liabilities, such as joint savings and checking accounts with transaction history, complete joint Federal and State tax returns, insurance policies that show the other spouse as the beneficiary, joint utility bills, or joint installment or other loans. If applicable, submit copies of military Leave and Earnings Statements showing receipt of Basic Allowance for Quarters (BAQ) with family members and/or Form DD-1172 for military family member identification cards; 4. Other documents that you consider relevant to establish that your marriage was not entered for the purpose of evading U.S. immigration laws; and Form I-751 Instructions 12/05/17 N Page 6 of 10 5. Affidavits sworn to or affirmed by at least two people who have known both of you since your conditional residence was granted and have personal knowledge of your marriage and relationship. (Such persons may be required to testify before an immigration officer as to the information contained in the affidavit.) The original affidavit must be submitted and also contain the following information regarding the person making the affidavit: his or her full name and address; date and place of birth; relationship to you or your spouse, if any; and full information and complete details explaining how the person acquired his or her knowledge. Affidavits must be supported by other types of evidence listed above.

Is it required now? In the instructions it says "SHOULD include" from at least 2 people.....I don't have 2 solid people to write an affidavit. I can't even see asking people doing it, it's embarrassing.

Anyways. we going to have joint tax returns (will that be alright or they prefer transcripts?); our names on the lease; joint saving and checking; electric bill on husband's name, cable bill on mine (I didn't know we can do joint utility bill); mail on our address; pictures together; and probably just one affidavit from husband's mother.

Link to the I-751 instructions, https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-751instr.pdf. Expires 12/31/2019.

Alessa, you have the option of including them.  They are suggested pieces of evidence and if you are going to include them they'd like them to be sworn or affirmed.  And, I get you on being embarrassed.  Its a big responsibility!!! 

 

I get why people would decline. Not many know or care to know about legal immigration since media goes to such pain to emphasis illegal immigration.  I personally find it belittling to ask a neighbour, colleague, etc to vouch for my relationship with my spouse.  Furthermore, they'd likely not know what to put into such a document to really assist you (hence, I didn't submit any). 

 

In some situations, people need to use them to support their case since they have little financial co mingling. 

 

If I were to ask family, a friend or neighbour I'd certainly be giving them samples to work from and/or help them compose. Nothing looks worse than a poorly written letter with little proof to substantiate it.  It's really a personal preference.

Looking at your timeline, you are in the process to apply for ROC.  Do not wait for your GC to expire.  That will only create a big mess for you.  After you send in your I-751 you will get an extension letter that is valid for one year.  You will be instructed to carry the letter and the expired GC with you when you travel outside of the US. Expect a long wait....and keep your fingers crossed that they have cleared out the backlog at both CSC and VSC.  90 days from the expiry of your extension letter (which is 3 years after the date of issue on your GC) you can apply for N-400.  Otherwise, you can wait the 5 years.

 

You may also get a letter confirming bio-metrics.....but don't sit waiting for this.  Some aren't and haven't received notice....still months later!!

 

Its good your getting ahead on the game....USCIS doesn't make the process easy sometimes.

Hello, I haven't been updating my timeline long time ago, I got my conditional GC in april 2017 and it expires in april 2019 so I am going to file ROC january or february 2019 just trying to figure out everything ahead of time...

And yeah my USCIS local office is pretty slow, so after biometrics appointment, I was waiting for 8 mons to get an interview during AOS.

Problem is that we also planning to move to another state next year....

OP if this helps, the following is a copy of the letter I sent along with my ROC package in Nov. 2017.  I can tell you that my package was about 3 inches deep as I wanted to front end load the application in hopes of getting approved without an interview.  I did not include affidavits as I have seen in this form that they do not carry much weight, for ROC financial co-mingling is king.  

 

Of course I have not heard anything yet (way too soon), but I wanted to post this as another source of ideas on what you could include in an ROC package.  I hope this helps

In Angel's case, they are further along than all of us discussing this, so they will likely be approved soon and won't need to file for an extension letter because they received one with the RFE. So they're good during the additional processing time, which shouldn't take anywhere near as long as it took to get the RFE.

True, I filed on march 20 2017. I got an extension letter 2-3 weeks after I filed last year. I didn't get one with the RFE. The extension letter is good until your GC expires, for me that is the end of May. 2 weeks before your extension letter expires you can get an I-551 stamp, if it takes longer.

 

I can apply for citizenship since Feb 2018. I have my GC 3 years this year and married for 4 in May.

Hello Everyone,

I have a question. When sending in copies of tax returns, credit cards, bank statements, etc with personal information on it, do we need to white out any of that information or leave as is?

Thanks,

Gina :content:

Hello Everyone,

I have a question. When sending in copies of tax returns, credit cards, bank statements, etc with personal information on it, do we need to white out any of that information or leave as is?

I leave it as it is.. We didn't sent any copies of debit or credit cards because we didn't feel comfortable with sending that to them.

Didn’t mean to put the sad face lol

yeah by the time you’ll be approve it will be more than 3 years as a green card holder then u can apply for your citizenship :) 

i think it’s 5 years as a green card holder than u can apply for citizenship 

))) When you are married to the US citizen you can apply for citizenship after 3 years green card holding, not even 5:)so by the time my ROC is approved or even earlier I can apply for naturalization...That's frustrating that it takes a year for a ROC.:mellow:

True, I filed on march 20 2017. I got an extension letter 2-3 weeks after I filed last year. I didn't get one with the RFE. The extension letter is good until your GC expires, for me that is the end of May. 2 weeks before your extension letter expires you can get an I-551 stamp, if it takes longer.

 

I can apply for citizenship since Feb 2018. I have my GC 3 years this year and married for 4 in May. 

Hello! So your conditional green card expired last year and extension letter about to expire in may 2018?

Do you have to schedule an appointment in USCIS office to get an I-551 stamp?
