US Immigration from Germany

Hello,

I am currently waiting on my ROC. I am moving from my current address that's registered with USCIS. Until I can get to the new address it will be 4 weeks from the date I am moving out.

How can I inform USCIS that I wont be able to receive mail at the new address until we move in?

Hi all,

My wife s I-485 was approved on 3/3 but we haven t had any updates since then other than receiving the approval notice via mail yesterday. She s been browsing jobs and found a few that look really appealing but the application windows will close soon. Is it possible/legal for her to apply for jobs with just the approval notice but no Greencard on hand yet? Can she say that she s legally allowed to work in the US? I saw in another thread that apparently printing green cards is delayed right now, just want to make sure we do everything by the book but also don t waste any possible employment opportunities!

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

So far I have been a silent reader and this is my first post

Regarding I-485 I was wondering what is considered a criminal background.

In 2015, I found child prn on my then boyfriend s laptop and I took him to court for that. Even though he was convicted I was charged a fine also - for defamation.

And two years ago I had to turn my drivers license in for 3 months because I was speeding (Sorry, I live in Germany and we have the autobahn )

Do I have to mention these two things when it comes to answering questions about criminal records? I am a little confused as to what falls under a criminal record .

Also, I don t have any documents left about these incidents. Is that a problem?

Thank you

Hi all,

My wife and I just moved and registered the change of address with USCIS through their website. We received an email confirmation that the change was successful however when my wife goes on her USCIS online account she can see the following under her I-131 application:

We're a bit confused, do we also need to follow these directions as well to register the address change with I-131? Or is this not relevant to us?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Context: I-129F filed recently, NOA1 2023-01-27. Fiancee and I (the USC) have been engaged since November, only started dating in October 2022 after meeting in person for the first time while she was visiting the states (but knew each other as friends online for years beforehand). Held off on filing I129F until Jan this year so we could accumulate evidence of us spending time together in the US and her home country (total 3 months).

We thought about just getting married right away in my home state but opted not to because we felt that the timeline of us going from meeting in-person to marriage would have been a red flag and potentially made our lives harder with having to prove everything. However, now I'm looking at timelines and seeing that CR1 is faster and cheaper of a route and I feel like I made an error with going towards the wrong pathway. Am I correct in this assumption, or would the higher bar of proving legitimate marriage be higher than proving legitimate relationship and intent to marry have been too much of a hurdle?
