    Just reporting from reading May 2025 filer thread - Two additional people who filed on June 4, got interview scheduled end of July. That's 4 cases now of people who filed first week of June and got interview date scheduled within a week of application. Three of those have been confirmed to have submitted under 5 year rule though, so it maybe that would be part of the criteria for such a speedy scheduling of interview. But I am still hoping those of us under 3 year rule don't have to wait too much longer

    Here in NH they have a special oath ceremony every year on 4th of July at the Strawbery Banke Museum in Portsmouth. I assume it is run by the Manchester Field Office. Normally the oath ceremonies are no nonsense business like, but this one (and probably others held on 4th of July across the country) have much more fanfare. The public is also allowed to attend. It's a celebration of the patriotism. I wish I had submitted earlier to have had a chance at that ceremony....

    Yeah it's mainly for reaping benefits in their home country. Canadians, for example, are no longer eligible to hold TFSA (tax free savings account) once they become LPR or American citizen. So if they continued to hold that type of account after becoming an LPR, they are representing themselves as a nonresident alien. Same with using Canadian healthcare which is only limited to Canadian residents.

    That’s awesome. I was listening to Attorney Jim Hacking’s show earlier today and he also talked about one of his clients who just submitted N400 getting interview notice within 2 weeks of application. May I ask which field office?
  19. From_CAN_2_US
    Thanks, this is super helpful.
  20. From_CAN_2_US
    Wow congratulations. How do you know your interview is scheduled if you didn’t get the notice? Asking because the day I submitted (June 5), biometrics was waived and my progress changed to step 3, interview scheduled. But I understands it is not actually scheduled yet, it is waiting to be scheduled. My status still says actively reviewing. Did that status change for you?
  21. From_CAN_2_US
    You’re right. My bad for not reading it properly.

    Considering validity of OP’s marriage for i130 depends on which state OP lives in, it will probably be more relevant in this case.

    Well demonstrated. one is allowed to file 90 days early to completing the 3 years of being LPR, PROVIDED one has met ALL other eligibility requirements. One of the requirements is to have lived with their US citizen spouse for over 3 years. If one only started living with spouse only for 2 years and 9 months, they have not met that eligibility criteria and hence cannot qualify for early filing.

    This is a very comprehensive answer. I was wondering this for a while as well. My understanding of the law is the same as @OldUser. However, I also understand that many people who come in as CR1/ IR1 and only lived with their spouse for 2 years 9 months, file at the 2 year 9 month mark and successfully get through. So it looks like many officers do take the lenient interpretation. In my opinion if you can afford waiting the additional 3 months, better to do so. In the off chance the stricter interpretation is applied to your case, you save losing the $710 and the several months wait leading up to the denial.
  27. From_CAN_2_US
    Yeah, most of us will be here for a while. However, there is a decent chance, depending on the service center, that some June 2025 filers will get interview schedule date by early July. That's the trend I am seeing from other monthly thread, a small percentage get processed very quickly. So you never know, you could get lucky

    Joining the club I filed online on June 5 under the 3 year rule. i751 already approved. I filed N400 at the 3 year, 4 months mark. Biometrics waived immediately after submitting, and status is now "Interview Scheduled" which I guess means that's the next step. Good luck everyone. Here's to speedy and smooth processing for all.

    In the absence of vaccination records, what you need is a titre test which will tell you what vaccines you have been administered. You can use this as proof of vaccinations. If report shows you don’t have any of them, you can arrange to take those. That is what I did coming from Canada. It was covered by provincial healthcare, so didn’t have to pay a dime. Those vaccinations that require multiple doses, proof of first dose is sufficient. My advice would be to take any vaccines that comes up negative on the report even if you don’t need it for immigration, as it would likely be covered by NHS and may not be free / covered by insurance in US. Take the advice of your doctor of course…

    When it comes to citizenship the entire immigration journey of the applicant is renewed. So if the person obtained LPR through marriage, they may ask questions about the marriage to verify it was entered in good faith. It’s ok even if the marriage is no more, the check is more for fraud or misrepresentation through the immigration process, which is found, would make someone ineligible for citizenship even under the 5 year rule.
