  1. I did this way back when. I didn't run into any issues
  2. The way I got my credit history started was purchasing a car on finance and having my ex-husband co-sign the loan, though I paid it all off myself. She will need an SSN to do that. The dealership I went to said I was like "a ghost in the system", lol. After a few months of on-time payments, I was able to successfully apply for my first credit card with Capital One.
  3. My interview was July 20th and my oath was on September 12th. I think. So almost two months out. My field office is Cleveland Ohio.
  4. I visited my ex-husband about a year into the CR-1 process for a couple of weeks, and I got in no problem. The officer I saw even thought it was super cute and hoped my spousal visa got approved soon.
  5. That's interesting that the SSA were there to update everyone in the system. At my ceremony, they were not there and we were advised by USCIS to wait ten days from the ceremony to go to the SSA to update our record. I thought it had something to do with SAVE. No passport people at our ceremony either, but at least there was a voting registration booth.
  6. I am tempted to follow the OOP. I really am curious as to how that goes. Wouldn't it be great if that's how easy it was? 😂 I don't know why they haven't questioned why the NVC and consulate processing stages are even a thing if it's as easy as just coming over here unannounced.
  7. If when they get to your Petition they want more from you, they would hopefully send you an RFE (request for evidence) and you'll have a reasonable deadline to get that info back to them.
  8. I didn't think the intent at CBP mattered for immediate relatives adjusting once the paperwork was filed? Ditto for the overstay?
  9. Thanks. The guy I saw must have been having a pretty bad day!
  10. I'm surprised to read they rarely ask. Granted, I've only flown twice with it, but both times I was asked for my British passport. The first time, the officer yelled at me because I should have known to hand it to him with the green card 😆
  11. I had to do biometrics for everything too, just the way things go sometimes. All of the petitions and applications I was a part of went well without any hitches or RFEs.
  12. I'm not sure if things changed in the past decade but before I moved out here, my ex filed a paper return and put "NRA" (which means non-resident alien) where my non-existent SSN/ITIN would have gone. Does that not work anymore for married filing separately? We amended the return after I arrived with my new SSN and made it a joint filing. IRS didn't reject any of it.
  13. https://www.uscis.gov/archive/questions-and-answers-for-members-of-the-military#:~:text=USCIS will accept the Petition,or a letter from the This page seems helpful and relevant to your situation. Edit to add the caveat says it's out of date info. So you might want to check if it's still relevant today.
  14. A tier 2 officer may very well be able to help you. Not a guarantee, but they have more power than the phone reps. I think you should call back, get a rep on the phone and politely but firmly request a tier 2 officer, explaining you sent your medical in but it was not reviewed despite them confirming receipt. It's either that or you would have to pay again. I don't think you should if someone can locate the documentation and review it.
  15. I apologize if I missed it, but did you speak to Tier 2 at USCIS? I'm not sure if they can have someone re-review your file if indeed your medical did make it in? The people who pick up the phone initially are customer service agents, but Tier 2 are actual officers with some power.
