How is this different than from before?

 

Since we are K1 to AOS to ROC to N-400, do we just include the I-94 as proof of lawful admission?

Yes.  The "change" is to clarify the way USCIS interpreted the entry of a person paroled into the US for Removal Proceeding.

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..

It was always a requirement for anyone adjusting status that they were lawfully entered into the US. 

 

This new ruling makes it clear that this enforcement is only for the initial entry to the US.  That is, the N400 applicant only has to show proof of that initial lawful entry and do not need to provide proof of any subsequent lawful reentry after obtaining LPR status.
