  1. You were lucky you weren't sent before an immigration judge in 2024, imo. I agree with @Daphne .. I think I would surrender the Green Card at POE, then ask to be paroled into the country for a short visit as a visitor. CBP could either deny entry after you surrender the card, or they might allow you a short visit.

  3. Maybe....maybe not. You came as a non-immigrant, violated the intent of that status, and overstayed once.....A Consulate Officer might think you will do so again. Roll of the dice, imo. ESTA is definitely out of the question, imo.
  4. Except that Green Cards are for living in the US...........
  5. This December? Very doubtful, imo. Overstays are not taken lightly...especially with this administration.
  6. No misunderstanding. I was thinking you might change your mind about living in the US during the 2 year re-entry period. If you absolutely want to live outside the US long-term, you don't qualify for a Green Card any way. I don't see you being able to return to the US any time soon if you have ANY overstay whether you abandon your I-485 or wait and submit an I-407 in the event a Green card is approved. I have serious doubts that a USCIS will approve your I-485 if he/she knows your plan......I would probably just re-locate now and take my chances for a B2 visa in a couple years. Others might disagree.
  7. The Washington Post said it.......I am not impressed. Hearsay at best. Note this excerpt from the same article: https://techcrunch.com/2026/03/10/doge-employee-stole-social-security-data-and-put-it-on-a-thumb-drive-report-says/ "A spokesperson for the Social Security Administration, which is still under control by DOGE, denied that a former employee stole data on U.S. citizens. The spokesperson said the Washington Post was “desperate for clicks and eager to publish fake news to scare seniors.”"
  8. 1. I don't see your Green Card being approved under your proposed plan to live outside the US. 2. ANY overstay will likely disqualify you from ESTA forever. If you think you might actually want to live in the US, you could wait until Green card approval, and apply for a 2 year re-entry permit. That would allow you to stay outside the US for up to 2 years and maintain your Green card. You could use the I-407 at some point. Otherwise, I'm not sure there is much benefit to waiting. Others here might chime in with good ideas.

  10. USCIS sometimes (not often) requires petitioners to submit biometrics. Perhaps they are ensuring your identity or checking something in your background. I would assume it means you are closer to some decision. Hopefully, you will receive an approval notice soon.
  11. You are the petitioner?
  12. It appears you qualify to submit an N-400 under the 5 year rule (General Provision). I would strongly recommend doing that.
  13. and the lack of which is not restricted one political party.😄
  14. Seems, to me, too, so late in the process, with no legal adoption, that it could hinder ANY US immigration (family-based or immediate relative) in the future.
  15. Should not qualify for a "live" sentence, imho. Straight to the needle is fitting in my book.

  18. Yes, USCIS extends the expiration date of the conditional Green Card for 48 months (the extension times have gotten longer over the years) because processing time can be a long time. In our case, our I-751 took 44 months. There are a few outlier cases which get processed pretty quickly, but as a rule, look for a couple years at least. Good luck.
  19. It's a real shame we have so many voters who place personality over policies......shallow thinkers, imo.
  20. I think so. Dems refusing to fund DHS was a real bone-headed move in my book after the dems and Biden flooded our country with unvetted illegals. I hope Mullins keeps up the pressure to deport illegals.
  21. It says ADDITIONAL medications. You should see a US doctor for additional needed medications since you are planning to live in the US.
  22. For current annual income, you enter what your income is expected to be over the next 12 months. Yes, spouse should sign I-864a. if in doubt, find a well-qualified joint sponsor and submit all required documents. Good luck.
