Travel for greencard holders
Noname93 replied to annabelle85's topic in General Immigration-Related Discussion
Are you still planning on moving to the US? If not, the right thing to do is to give up the greencard and use ESTA or a visitor visa. Greencards are not for visiting. They're for living in the US -
I originally used my greencard extension (I think it was the stamp) when I started my current job. They never questioned my status, but it took them a bit to figure out how to put it in their system correctly. The biggest downside was that I needed to reverify my status when my extension expired. Luckily I had an unrestricted social security card by then.

First, yes, you can adjust but you will not be able to work (even a remote position) until you have an EAD or the greencard. You will also not be able to leave the country until you have an AP or a greencard. Second, I don't think K1 makes much sense if both of you are living in Ireland. If you decide against doing adjustment of status I would suggest getting married and filing CR1.

Looking to live and work permanently together with my UK girlfriend ASAP. Which would be faster: getting married while she is here on an ESTA and beginning the IR-1 after she returns, or just getting engaged and then starting the K-1?
Noname93 replied to RedUKFriend's topic in What Visa Do I Need - Family Based Immigration
Since she is currently here, you can get married and adjust as long as that was not the initial plan when she came here. However, as you probably know whe will not be able to work for a while -
I-751 with 10 year green card
Noname93 replied to Mezyan's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
Usually the advice is to send a I90 for USCIS error, and then send the I751 in the 90 days before the 2 year anniversary of the greencard. Hopefully skipping the I90 will work too. -
Made a mistake on my k1 visa application
Noname93 replied to sonia95's topic in K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures
You definitely should not call them your spouse. That implies that you are already married. -
We had a "courthouse" wedding. (Our state doesn't do weddings at courthouses). It was small wedding with me and my husband, 2 witnesses, an officiant, and a friend taking photos. No one else. We had no problem getting AOS approved (not a K1 case though). We had a big wedding on our one year anniversary, but my greencard was already approved by then.

Is Global Entry worth it?
Noname93 replied to Noname93's topic in Working & Traveling During US Immigration
Thank you everyone for the answers. I think we're going to go ahead and apply. If we get approved before our trip that's great. If not, we'll at least have it for our next trip. -
Is Global Entry worth it?
Noname93 replied to Noname93's topic in Working & Traveling During US Immigration
Thanks. I changed my passport to my married name 5 years ago. Interestingly I've had that issue with my middle name missing from my ticket before -
Hello, We (me: LPR, husband: US citizen) are planning on visiting my family over Christmas, and I was reading up on global entry. The official website states that they only recommend it for people who fly abroad 3 to 4 times a year. We're only planning on going abroad once this year, but I'm still thinking about getting it. I know it would be $200 but it would alleviate a lot of stress during travel. Would it be worth it?

O1 to marriage-based visa
Noname93 replied to a.fiora's topic in Adjustment of Status from Work, Student, & Tourist Visas
No one here is going to advice you to do that because it would be fraud. You clearly have intentions to get married and adjust status. Coming back into the country on a non immigrant visa knowing you are about to apply for adjustment is a big no-no. Unfortunately it looks like your best option is to apply now, include I-131, and hope that at least that part will be approved by the time your trip comes around. And if not, you'll have to cancel or reschedule. -
First letter, form i751
Noname93 replied to Ana A's topic in Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion
File a G-1145 with your application to get a text when they open your case, or pay with a personal check and check your bank account for when they cash it -
Just checked my mail while at work and saw an envelope from uscis waiting for me. So I immediately checked myuscis, kinda scared since the last time I got a random letter from uscis it was the denial of my first I751. I thought it might be an interview or biometrics notice. Lo and behold, instead I see this. So after almost 4 years, 1 denial, multiple nervous breakdowns and call to uscis that led to nowhere, 2 ADIT stamps, and not a single interview or biometrics appointment (I was sure they would need to redo them since my biometrics are from 2018!), I am finally DONE! Maybe one day Austria will change the law about dual citizenship and I'll apply for citizenship, but for now, I will gladly leave uscis in my rear view mirror.

You need to file AR-11. It can be filed online. You are supposed to file within 7 days of moving, but better now than never. If your sponsor also moved, they need to file I-865, which cannot be filed online.

Forgot green card in the US
Noname93 replied to B.F's topic in Working & Traveling During US Immigration
I guess if you have the money, you could book a flight to Canada or Mexico and have someone you trust physically bring you the card
