I have tried over and over and over to get information on my wife's 10-year Green Card. It's been over 5 years since we filed. USCIS sent her Green Card after waiting over a year for it to a previous address that we were forced out of by property management in order to renovate the apartment. After over a year of waiting they finally get off their butts and send it at the same time we are being kicked out. We changed our address immediately, but it was too late. Trying to even get a document number for proof for my federal employment has been a pain in the ###. I don't know where to turn. I can't log-in online at myUSCIS because they won't send me a verification code. I'm losing opportunities because of this #######, and it's pissing me off. I don't think it's fair that USCIS decides to send a very important document over the mail 18 months after applying at exactly the same time we are being kicked out of our apartment.

Do you have I-90 on a file?

Sorry you have to go through this hell. It is expected from USCIS when changing adrresses. It often messes things up.

 

Have you tried getting an ADIT stamp in your passport?

We have an I-90. We just can't find it. It's been misplaced from moving. We've even moved a second time since this BS went down, and I can't even change the address again because of issues logging in. I have to have document proof for my spouse for a Department of Energy job, and I can't get the information.

It seems the ADIT stamp would meet your needs. And sounds like you need to file a new I 90.

Did you file a second AR-11 when you moved the second time within 10 days of moving?

We just moved again because we reached a point where it felt hopeless and wondered if moving forward with citizenship was an option, but for the sake of an NBIS processing for a DOE security clearance position, I need proof now.

For evidence of legal status, get an ADIT stamp in passport. In addition, submit an AR-11 and I-865 as required.

In summary, it took 13 months for approval of the CR-1.  It took 44 months for approval of the I-751.  It took 4 months for approval of the N-400.   It took 172 days from N-400 application to Oath Ceremony.   It took 6 weeks for Passport, then 7 additional weeks for return of wife's Naturalization Certificate..

I don't see any correlation between moving places and naturalization? It seems you're complicating things for no apparent reason. Here's what I would do:

 

1. Find a stable place to live. Plan staying there for 2-3 years ideally.

2. Get proof of immigrantion status. E.g. file I-90 and get ADIT stamp. Make physical and digital copies of everything you submit to and everything you receive from USCIS.

3. Think about naturalization. This may be too early? When did the wife become an LPR?
