You can, yes....but should you? Even if you didn't have a Green Card, you could choose to be treated as a tax resident for the full year.

There are many variables which determine if: 1. If You could file as a non-resident and a resident (dual status alien) 2. If You SHOULD file as a dual status resident. Variables include: Do you pass the substantial presence test? how much income the new resident earned prior to coming to the US, foreign income exclusions, tax agreements between the US and new immigrant's home country, FBAR, etc. Having said all that I always advise new immigrants to seek the help of a good tax pro the 1st year in the US.

Was it the AI generated answer?

You should go ahead and change your address via an AR-11. You can do it online. Sponsors/petitioners must also report change of address via an I-865 by mail only. I have not seen a single case of a person having issues due to failure to report change in address....But I would do it immediately.

White House press sec said on X: ".....If you illegally enter the United States of America, you will face severe consequences." Notice, she didn't say "and commit crimes"....

I have read that is the very reason a person holding a C1/D can not stay and adjust status. You need an attorney.

Agree. Now is not the time to stay inside the US while "out of status".

Generally, I don't think he can adjust status from that visa. You need a good attorney.

That is great. A lot pf people don't have that kind of discipline.

You posted this under Tourist Visas (which is not related to USCIS Service Centers). For what visa category will the I-130 be submitted?

Online filings still go to one of the USCIS Service Centers.

@Loren Y is the expert on Vegas weddings. For immigration, follow this guide for marrying and adjusting status.

No. The date on that document has multiple ramifications. I would wait until you can send them an accurate document.

The OP has already passed the 5 year mark as a Green Card holder.

Tom Homan was asked "What would it take to get a visit from ICE"? Homan said "Be illegally inside the US". They are also saying "The worst first". Bottom line: I wouldn't want to be out of status.

No. I would wait. You don't want 2 packages floating around in the system at this point.

Question for the group: Does a DUI violate the good character requirement for citizenship?

If you meet the continuous presence for 5 years, I would go that route. The 3 year route requires a lot of additional evidence.

I don't think so. unless they give you an ADIT stamp as evidence of status in place of the card. My wife and I had a combo interview. They did NOT collect her expired Green Card until the day of her oath ceremony. It is not normal for them to take a Green Card until the oath ceremony. Here are the instructions on the oath ceremony letter as to items to bring: • This notice with the reverse side completed. Please refer to instructions below. • All Permanent Resident Cards ("green card") that you may have, valid or expired. • All Reentry Permits or Refugee Travel Documents that you may have, valid or expired. • Any other documents USCIS issued to you that you may have, such as employment authorization cards, valid or expired. Having said that, nont having the Green card at the oath ceremony will be no problem.

Yes. These are state drivers licenses....not USA DLs. In Texas: You have 90 days to transfer. Transferring Out-of-State Licenses: If you have a valid driver license from another U.S. state, U.S. territory, or Canada, you must surrender your out-of-state license and are not required to take the knowledge or skills exams.

Yep. It's a matter what level of risk is the OP willing to take, imho.
