Getting ready to file N-400 this month (with a pending 751). Asking mostly for curiosity since in our case the difference this makes is ~2 weeks.

Our family recently moved between states. PR anniversary is April 20, so technically eligible to file on Jan 20, however because of the move I won't meet the local residency requirement until Feb 3rd (assuming it applies). Except it looks like (per https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-d-chapter-6#:~:text=D. 90-Day Early Filing Provision (INA 334), for people precisely in my position (i.e. Early Filers filing under INA 334), the 3-month residency requirement need only be met by the date of N-400 interview.

Has something like this been discussed here? If so, what's the consensus opinion? I guess it doesn't make much of a difference for me personally but I can see this may be relevant for those who move relatively close to their 90-day early filing date and then having to wait a while (vs those who are already past their 5/3-year mark being able to file and then moving).

We just got our k1 visa, now What paperwork does my foreign fiancee need upfront on arrival in order for us to get married here in the USA?

And what paperwork do we need to apply for her green card

Thank you in advance.

So I and my spouse are eligible to file citizenship this year in June, 2026. There is some history related to my wife's immigration status. In 2013 2014, my spouse's prior employer withdrew her H-1B petition without notifying us. She continued working until she later learned of the withdrawal after 9 months. We promptly investigated the matter through FOIA, departed the United States 13-14 months later, and subsequently returned in H-4 status. Few months later, she got her H1 from new employer and this history was fully disclosed in all her subsequent H1B visa applications and got successful visa stampings multiple times and during my green card process, which was approved in 2021.

Any risk in citizenship application for my spouse especially now when the sentiment is against immigration and every application is being thoroughly investigated?

Hi I am adjustment through my spouse us citizen.

he made less than 9k for the past 3 years for 2022,2023,2024 and didnt file tax.

I have found the joint sponsor with 1 dependent who make 42k for 2024 tax year and make 45k for 2025 year.

But 2022 and 2023 she made 24k per year.

i was assured by my lawyer and actually multiple lawyers I have consultation that I can use my joint sponsor with only current 2024 years tax return and 3 month paystub

as for my husband he did not file tax and we just submit letter state that he didn't file because of that.

Now we got rfe notice that I don't know what it is about but my lawyer said might be finance -

My question is is it true that I can use this joint sponsor eventhough 2022 and 2023 income is not enough? do I need to switch joint sponsor to someone else?

is it because my husband non file tax?
should I file tax for my husband for 2022,2023,2024 even though he didn't make enough

I helped a friend file an I-130 on March 2025 for her husband. She is a U.S. citizen, and her husband lives in India. Is there any place where we can see real timelines or updates from other people going through the same process? That way, I can help her understand when her husband might get an interview, visa approval, or arrive in the U.S.

Thanks
