Good morning all!

Yesterday we just found that we're pregnant, do we need to update the officer during interview (scheduled on Aug 23) or not? or they don't care?

Congratulations!
Since you JUST found out and your interview is next week, I don't really see how it impacts your case.
However, if they ask proof of like bona fide relationship, you can always "throw" in there that you're pregnant, if you choose.

But the fact of pregnancy at this stage ( I also assume you're like super early on the pregnancy/not showing) of the process doesn't really impact anything.

Thanks guys! Just wanted to know if USCIS need to know about that or not ;) 

At this point, nope
They don't "Need' to know unless they ask-- but I don't see them asking
They might say "did anything change since application?" and u can throw it in there

Although from where am sitting, at 6 weeks, I don't know what they're going to do with that information. lol

But congratulations and best of luck on ur interview!

Hello :) can someone direct me to the right information i need to do if there was an emergency back home (Australia) and I needed to leave the US while waiting for my GC? Is that possible? 

Posted

It has been 3 weeks since I requested an expedite for my AP (July 25th) and 2 weeks and 1 day since I faxed the evidence for my expedite request to the USCIS, and I have not heard anything from the USCIS- no status change. Yesterday, I reached out to my senator, Cory Booker.  Any tips on what else I can do? I tried getting in touch with tier 2  yesterday but they say the line is "closed"...

For an expedite on AP I would try to schedule an InfoPass appt. If you can't get one, I would try to just walk in.

Thanks. But would they able to provide an expedite for the regular AP of 1 year or just a 30 day emergency parole? My wife is going on Friday.
