I think everything hinges on how busy your local office is.

That caught my ears, too. They are on their way to some unwanted attention.

1. DS-160 does not apply to spousal visas. 2. There is no US criminal background check document required for a spousal visa. That is handled by USCIS as part of the internal process. You might want to become an "A" student of the I-864 and the spousal visa process. Guides are here on VJ.

Classic!!!

Based on?

The key word is "allows"...not "requires"...i.e., the word "may" in their policy. There is also the possibility that they have doubts about the relationship. The fact that you said it took them 4 years to adjudicate your case implies (to me) there is something else going on. Did you have RFEs? Unfortunately, I don't think denial is the decision of just one officer. I'm sure there is a review process. Good luck. As I said before, your case is a real money maker for an attorney.

That could be problematic. I would get a well qualified joint sponsor.

A few POSSIBLE mistakes among thousands and thousands of illegals and criminal illegals off the streets.

There is almost ALWAYS more to the story. Do you believe everything you see on the internet or everything the biased left wing media reports?

auto-correct got me.......DEportation.....LOL.

Is Spectrum your home internet provider, by chance?

Suddenly, I am no longer blocked today.....

Walz and Frey are insurrectionists in direct rebellion to Federal law. No way to sugar coat it. In addition, they do not respect the fact that the American people voted for the mass deportation of illegal aliens.

He has proof that he applied.....not that it was approved. An application is not the same as an approval. I would return to the US before the 1 year mark. In fact, I would return as soon as possible. It would be beneficial to show CPB the application as it shows intent to return.

1. No. 2. You would then contact USCIS and/or NVC (with a copy of you Naturalization Certificate) to upgrade the petition to IR-1 category. 3. Correct 4. None, other than the need to translate the marriage certificate.

One possible mistake among thousands and thousands of violent criminal illegals/occupiers off the street......

This is way beyond the scope of a DIY web site, but a big money maker for an attorney. Did these attorneys tell you to have two I-485s pending under the same category?(I don't think that is possible). If so, that is why your case has confused USCIS officers. Did you not withdraw the first one? What makes the attorneys think the discretionary denial is incorrect? https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-7-part-a-chapter-5 3. Incarcerated Petitioners "USCIS may waive the personal appearance of a U.S. citizen spouse petitioner who is incarcerated and unable to attend the adjustment of status interview. In these situations, the adjustment applicant must appear for an interview. An officer must take all the facts and evidence surrounding each case into consideration on a case-by-case basis when deciding whether to waive the U.S. citizen spouse petitioner’s appearance." I think USCIS has complete discretion in this kind of case. Hopefully, you will get a clear decision soon.

Yes. Answer "No".

Fully different.....a well qualified new joint sponsor. Unless your current joint sponsor's current income is substantially higher than last year, your current joint sponsor is borderline, imo. The poverty level is a guideline....not an absolute qualifier.... As I said, you get one shot at this RFE.....a denial of your I-485 will be a gigantic problem for you....and could be catastrophic.

This error is showing up again on main page for me: [[Block new_topics_2019 is throwing an error]] Also, my IP address still appears to be blocked.

***Moved to Adjustment of Status forms as OP mentioned I-485***

I would find different, well qualified joint sponsor. This is your last chance before USCIS denies your I-485.

I don't think this is possible.... Certainly, the attorney withdrew the first I-751.....or the second one overrode the first one With this much going on, I wouldn't travel. Nothing prevents you from submitting an N-400 if you qualify, but it won't be approved until your I-751 is sorted out.
