  1. Good article, but it didn't go far enough, imo. But, as the article says, it appears this bill would immediately be challenged and, likely, found to be unconstitutional based on previous SCOTUS rulings.
  2. What new policy is that? In 2022 under the last administration, it took 3 weeks from "oath will be scheduled" until we received the date for wife's oath ceremony. Then, the oath ceremony was about 2 weeks after we received the date.
  3. Another vote not to try this. Besides, I don't think they will give you one since your extension letter is valid and you have your expired Green Card.
  4. Yes. The US immigration process requires a great deal of knowledge, planning, time, patience, and a significant amount of money......emphasis on the patience.
  5. So, are they going to re-issue Green Cards to those dual citizens who renounce US citizenship, yet want to remain in the US? This is just crazy stuff, imo.
  6. I don't like it. I don't like it at all!!!!!
  7. Ewok, I just started getting this error on main page using laptop and Chrome: [[Block new_topics_2019 is throwing an error]]
  8. Does this act "grandfather in" current dual citizens? If given an "either/or" ultimatum, my wife would likely choose her home country since most of her current income comes from her teachers' retirement pension which I'm sure she would lose if she gave up her home country citizenship......and we pay full taxes to the US on that Taiwan income. ...there is no foreign income exclusion for us.
  9. It appears the fee is either $700 or $750 depending on how you submit the I-751. The process can take a few months to a few years. Yes, you MUST submit a lot of evidence. ***Moved to Removing Conditions....***
  10. The hate for all things Trump overrides all else for some people.
  11. Duplicate hijack comment removed
  12. The average modern American isn't enduring the US immigration process. The first few years of a Green Card through marriage case should be about building a case for a bona fide marriage. That is reality....make the job of USCIS as easy as possible. A SSN, a driver's license/state ID, joint bank accounts (finance co-mingling/use), healthcare documents, documents showing you live together at the same address, etc. are all documents normally generated in a bona fide marriage. That is what USCIS wants to see. It doesn't hurt to ask yourself "how can I strengthen my case" from time to time during the process. Now, more so than ever, strong evidence is a big advantage. Good luck on your journey.

  14. Since the interview has already been scheduled, contact (email) the consulate to inform them and to ask about rescheduling.
  15. This thread has already been moved there. There is no action required on your part. You had a duplicate thread, but I removed it.
  16. ****This thread is moved to Bringing Relatives of US citizens to America****
  17. https://www.immi-usa.com/immigration/marriage-visas/k1-adjustment-of-status/ "You need to file a K-1 adjustment of status before the end of the 90 days of stay. In other words, you should file for an adjustment of status before the I-94 expires. "
  18. https://www.justanswer.com/immigration-law/r4c1j-wife-entered-u-s-k1-visa-already-married.html " K1 Visa Adjustment of Status: Timing for Form I-485 Filing Confusion about filing deadlines and maintaining lawful status after K1 visa entry. After marriage within 90 days of K1 visa entry, the spouse should file Form I-485 to adjust status. The 90-day period applies to marriage, not the I-485 filing deadline. Filing after the I-94 expiration can risk unlawful presence issues. It is important to file the I-485 promptly after marriage to maintain legal status. USCIS requires timely submission to avoid complications, but exact timing depends on individual circumstances and current immigration policies."
  19. https://www.lawfirm1.com/non-immigrant-visas/how-to-obtain-a-k-1-fiance-visa/adjustment-of-status-through-k-1-visa-entry/ " Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status You, the foreign national spouse, will file Form I-485 after you and your spouse have married. Again, the marriage needs to take place within 90 days of your arrival in the U.S. It is advised that you file Form I-485 before the 90 days is up because that is when your I-94 expires. You are allowed to file the adjustment of status visa after the 90-day time window has expired, but note that your legal status will have expired. Your legal status will expire with the K-1 visa — regardless of your marital status. One of the requirements for Form I-485 is to show that you have maintained lawful status in the U.S."
