US Immigration from Lithuania

My fiancee has her medical and interview scheduled in Vilnius. What is a bit confusing to me is how informal and inconsistent the Embassy's instructions have been, so I am hoping to double check with folks here who may have dealt with this embassy before.

1. I (the petitioner) notified them of the K-1 court order asking them to process our application. (it was at NVC at that time).

2. They replied stating they will take action and request the case from NVC. They also emailed me a checklist of items that my fiancee should start preparing for the interview. Nothing unusual in this list. But they say do NOT email anything to us.

3. Case goes to Transit, then Ready.

4. I email then asking for an interview date. They respond with the date and state again to bring all documents to interview.

So a couple of things I am not sure about.

1. Even if I CC my fiancee, they reply only to me and they have not sent her anything at all. All communications seems to go through me. There is no "packet 3" or anything and my fiancee has received zero communication directly from the embassy.

2. The initial checklist they emailed me has a sign off portion on the bottom and states to email that to them once docs are collected, along with the DS160 confirmation, but their email instructions say to NOT email anything.

I am just trying to do things correctly and at this point I am inclined to follow their email instructions. They don't really answer detailed questions, which I have tried to ask, only repeat to bring docs to interview. I don't want to pester them with questions, but I assumed I would need to email them a few things ahead of the interview. I guess not.

Thanks for the responses.

Hi all,

I am the petitioner.

We were waiting to file our entire package (I-130, I-485, etc) until I got my new social security card that reflected my name change so that we had at least one document with my married legal name (haven't been able to change my Driver's License/Bank Accounts without my social security card reflecting my married name). However, I just received my social security card and they spelled my new last name wrong. I thought it was a mistake on my part, but the SSA mailed back our marriage certificate and I have a copy of the name change application, all of it with the correct spelling. I am not sure how they misspelled my new last name.

Is it worth sending in a copy of incorrect social security card with our AoS package with a copy of a new application to correct the spelling? Is the marriage certificate enough to show proof of name change?

Additionally, my husband's work visa expires December 1, 2020 (this Tuesday). I know we really cut it close with planning to submit on November 30th... Would it be OK to file after Dec. 1st? Would I need to include a letter explaining why we are filing after his work visa expired?

Thanks for your help!

All best,

Joanna

The K-1 is a Non-Immigrant Visa, but on the NVC's website, if I choose non-immigrant visa then it gives me an error.

However, if I choose Immigrant Visa, then it gives me my case status.

Is this something I should be worried about or contact the NVC about?

Hello!

Haven't been here in a while and kinda lost the plot.
Wife has 2 year green card, and this month is our 1 year anniversary. Originally came here on K-1. We need to remove conditions and as far as i know, researched before, we can file N400 and I-751 together, and have one interview.

Can we still file those two together to have a combined interview? Hope nothing change since my last visit here.
What is the time window to send in those forms? (1 year, 90days before the expiration of GC?)

Do the checks have to be separated for each form? (assuming yes)

The proof of relationship is the usual stuff, Lease, insurance, 401k, photos etc. Right?

Everything else seems fairly straight forward and less of a hassle paper-wise than AoS or K-1.

Probably a redundant question - if this was recently answered - i'll delete my post

Thanks!

Hi, everyone!

I have a few questions about the necessary financial documents I will need to submit along with our AOS. I am a USC and we are doing an AOS from an H2B for my husband.

I am a bit confused as to the necessity of the I-944. I read a post on this forum that there was a federal court ruling that vacated the public charge requirement for filing of the I-944, but the USCIS website doesn't seem to be updated. I am assuming that I should still submit the I-944? I am hoping to submit our entire package within the next week.

If the I-944 is still required, I understand that there are a lot of documents that need to be provided, such as our credit reports, tax returns for last 3 years, bank statements for last 12 months, etc.

For our credit reports, is the Chase Credit Journey screenshot sufficient or do we need an official credit report from one of the credit agencies (e.g. Experian)? I ask because my Experian credit report doesn't show my credit score. I am also an authorized user on my parents' credit card, so even though all of my credit cards are paid off, their credit card account has a debt balance and this debt balance is listed on my Experian credit report. Does this mean I would need to get the credit card statement from my parents' credit card showing the outstanding balance? Would I need to submit an additional letter explaining that I am an authorized user and the reason for the outstanding debt?

As for the tax returns, are the tax return transcripts downloaded from IRS.gov sufficient or do I need to send the actual return that I filed through TurboTax?

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!
