From date of issue.
Form I-131, Instructions for Application for Travel Document, Parole Documents, and Arrival Departure Records
"Generally, a Reentry Permit issued to a lawful permanent resident is valid for 2 years from the date of issuance."
I recommend filing for citizenship as soon as you are qualified to do so. Our I-751 had been pending for 40 months when my wife submitted her N-400. 4 months later both the I-751 and N-400 were approved. Then a few weeks later, she became a citizen.
I am certainly not making accusations, but it is not uncommon for "friends" to help a person play the system in order to get a Green Card. Under the current situation, it may or may not be the case.
Of course she can. She probably knows that the current administration is canceling some TPS and heavily scrutinizing asylum cases. Her only certain path to remaining in the US is through you.
OK. I think you are right. After your comments and a little more research, I believe unlawful presence starts when the I-485 is abandoned. I do not believe it would be retroactive to the I-94 expiration. Thus, the OP filed a proper I-485 prior to expiration of the I-94, and there was no unlawful presence.
I am finding that unlawful presence starts upon denial of an I-485. You are correct that the same could apply when the I-485 was considered abandoned. In the OP's case, there be no ban regardless.
But the Adjustment of Status was abandoned....I assume unlawful presence started after the I-94 expired. If I am wrong, the OP has even less than 5 months overstay.
You were out of status after 90 days inside the US via a K-1. That would have been roughly September 25. Leaving on February 25 would be about 5 months in unlawful presence. That would be worst case. Seems to me that you were out of status less than 180 days. I see no ban for that. US spouse can start the spousal visa process by submitting an I-130.
Interesting read. Zelensky is a very stupid man if took the advice of these people. He has endangered his political career, the lives of more people, and his country's future.
