    You need to become an "A Student" of the process and the forms associated with adjusting status as shown in the guide below if you are adjusting from a tourist visa or student visa as spouse of a US citizen. In addition, the US citizen spouse needs to join us here. Be aware that you will not be able to work inside the US or leave the US for up to 9 months after filing the I-485, I-131, and I-765.

    and, of course, Governor Hochul is outraged at the latest NY ICE operation. "Hochul said such operations “will not make New York safer” and will “shatter hard-working families who are simply trying to build a life here.”"

    I think maybe the OP has been in the US about 32 weeks......filed I-485 about 20 weeks ago.

    Nor have I.....for the reasons you stated. I think that we are rapidly approaching the place where kids will be totally dependent on AI. There will be a lack of critical thinking and problem solving skills. In addition, AI is the perfect, biased tool for social engineering....dictating and reforming morality and culture. I don't like where we are going......but I see no stopping it.

    Of course, it is. I was just quoting statistics. I didn't realize that many US citizens have passports. I thought it would be much fewer. However, I think the number of naturalized citizens (like the OP) is much higher than 50%, but I haven't found any stats on that.

    Unfortunately, there is more waiting than any of us want in every phase of the journey. Now, that every AOS receives an interview, I would expect the average processing time to increase. There isn't much we can do except to continue learning about the next phase.

    and the average I-485 processing time as reported by other VJ members (all field offices) is about 223 days.

    The path of least resistance is often the best course of action. When I was in the military (about 50 years ago), we had a saying..."Cooperate and Graduate".
  9. Crazy Cat
    You filed about 5 months ago, correct?

    It seems that a very low percentage of I-751s are actually denied....including appeals.....That tells me that the process prior to submitting I-751s is sufficiently eliminating fraudulent marriages. I have, for years, advocated eliminating the I-751 and conditional Green cards. To my knowledge, my wife and I have one of the longest I-751 processing times with no RFEs....44 months.

    45% to 50% of all US citizens, I have read. I thought the number would be much smaller. There are more than 169,000,000 active US passports in circulation.

    So, your father is wanting a Green card? If so, how did he enter the US?
  14. Crazy Cat
    Not an issue. However, most people opt for a US passport because it allows travel outside the country, and because it is another proof of US citizenship. In addition, a passport is easier than a Naturalization Certificate, imo, to replace if needed.

    In France? I might be confused, but I'm not understanding this part (unless you mean after the US marriage and AP) because K-1 marriages must take place inside the US. Once you marry anywhere (prior to K-1 marriage inside the US), the K-1 is void, and you have to start from scratch with a spousal visa. We might have covered this earlier, but one option is to have a simple marriage now, and start the spousal visa process. You are then free to have celebration ceremonies any time and any place.

    I don't think there is a fee for choosing item "3.b. My previous card was issued but never received."

    Include a copy of the I-130 receipt with the I-485 package.

    I would email the consulate and request an extension of the approved I-129F. Consulates normally automatically extend them in 4 month increments for a year......but it doesn't hurt to ask them.

    Married = time outside the US and inside the US.
  23. Crazy Cat
    So, exactly what is your question, then?
  24. Crazy Cat
    For citizenship, two things matter: time married to a US citizen and time as a Green Card holder.

    One person reported their EAD taking 9.5 months a few days ago. This is one of the major disadvantages of a K-1.
