I am applying US citizenship. filing N400. here is my background info: I came to US in 1992 with family. After i finished college and worked for a while, I left US and went back to Hong Kong in 2002. I kept coming back to US every 5~6 months to keep my green card. I came to US to settle down in 2019. I am still holding a green card. I have been working as software engineer till now. I bought a house in California in 2021. I married in Hong kong in 2012. have 2 kids. 10 and 7 years old. Then i came to US in 5/2019, and my sister has been supporting my wife and kids financially since I left Hong Kong I always go back to see them 3 times a year. I am eligible to apply for citizenship. but I divorced in Hong Kong and got a court order in 3/2024. When I filed N400, it requires me to show court order and show that i am financially supporting my ex-wife and kids. I haven't sent them any money. So i will start wire-transferring $5000 every 2 months, starting form June 1, 2024. I will file N400 again in Feb 2025. this way i will have some transaction record to show USCIS. my court order only announced we are divorced, but it doesn't the detail of alimony. We didn't include this when we filed divorce because we trust each other. And my sister is willing to help. my question is: 1) do you think the transactions record from 6/1/2024 till 2/2/2025 enough to show that i am supporting my family. There will be 6 transactions (6/1, 8/1, 10/1, 12/1, 2/1/2025) 2) my court order only announced that we are divorced, but didn't include detail of alimony. so is it ok if I show this transactions record? Thanks

I actually got my green card way before 2019... But i want to know why it takes SO long to renew... I thought it is like half year... Does very green card holder experiencing the same? taking over a year to renew?

I can't submit inquiry. It said it is still under normal processing time. Yes I plan to naturalize. I had green card in 1992, but i left US in 2002. Then i came back to US in 05/2019. So I can apply for naturalization in 5/2025, which is a few months away... I have NOT moved since i filed I-90.

My green card expired in 3/2023, I filed I-90 to renew in 10/2022 in USCIS's website until now I still haven't received my new green card. Instead they gave me a letter I-797, it said it extends my green card for 24 months... But still.... I has been over 450 days since I filed I-90. USCIS website shows that process time of green card 10 year renewal is about 9 months... and replacing green card is 28.5 months I called USCIS, the automated message just read out the status on USCIS's webpage... It is impossible to talk to agent thru the USCIS contact center. If i say "talk to agent", the robot will say "if you insist to talk agent, I will have to release the call" So what can I do? is anyone waiting that long?

Yes. I filed I-130 for each child. After the divorce is finalised, i will have a legal document showing my full custody. So do I need to do anything in my I-130 application?

1. Will you have custody of your children? Yes, I will have full custody. 2. Are you a U.S. citizen? No, I am a US resident (holding green card) 3. So they came to your home and physically took it? No. When i filed divorce, i have to hand in forms with my marriage certificate. And they won't give me back the marriage certificate. That's what i meant...

I filed I-130 for my children a while ago. but no decision yet. USCIS website said "6 months until case decision" In the petition i uploaded the marriage certificate. I filed the petition in July 2022. I married my wife in Hong Kong in 2012. But i divorced with her today. The divorce is still in process, and the marriage certificate became invalid. HK government took back the marriage certificate. So does my divorce affect my I-130 petitions for my children? because i provided marriage certificate, but it became invalid. What should i do? Do i need to call USCIS? or provide other document?
