  1. Both proposed aircraft are propeller planes. Has Russia’s armed forces degraded that badly?
  2. She can travel until the Advance Parole Document aka I-512) expires. The “until December 2023” stuff has no effect on her lawful presence or on her travel privilege.
  3. 1. USCIS ombudsman 2. Federal senator or representative 3. Writ of Mandamus / Administrative Procedures Act suit
  4. Perfect. If they want to naturalize in the future it should be 8 months. They should file I-485 packages this weekend.
  5. Yes that happens at some field offices. I knew about Seattle. Now know about St Albans
  6. If you never plan to naturalize, legally what you are doing is fine. You might eventually get a CBP officer who doesn’t agree but cross that bridge when you get to it.
  7. You can easily arrange those 6 phobia into portrait orientation and should do so.
  8. Yes. Pay attention to question 5. Is this child applying with you? Even though she is not applying with her father, her existence is gold standard proof of bonafide marriage. It will be harmful to his case to not answer this section correctly
  9. My impression runs counter to the consensus. * N-400s are accelerating I-751s (though in our case we were approved for I-751 before filing N-400 * New N-400 cases are being prioritized over everything else (including old N-400 cases) in most field offices. There has never been better time in the last 8 years to file N-400 than today. So effectively 3 year cases are getting more love. My wife has been a LPR for less than 3 years and her N-400 interview is scheduled for January 31, which is 3 years plus 4 days after she became an LPR (January 27, 2020). Exactly 90 days after we filed. i was pretty certain she would get a fast interview as reports (mostly on Reddit) were saying for years that Tucson was fast. We moved to southern Arizona partially for this reason. Meanwhile, San Jose, near where we lived before is 3 times fast than when I filed in 2017. We held off filing relative to the 3 year anniversary date of her “residence since” date because that date is false. USCIS back dated her gc to the interview (January 16, 2020) and not the approval date (January 27, 2020). If anything, those filing on the basis of 3 years need to be careful they are not interviewed too soon. Some field offices will deny the case even if it is their fault. We would have canceled the interview if it was scheduled January 26, 2023 or earlier.
  10. After they get a gc, where do they plan to spend the majority of their time?
  11. And hopefully that’s how you signed your photo
  12. This is not DIY. Hire a lawyer. $2000-$5000 are reasonable for a misdemeanor
  13. I love re-using LPR status. Congratulations.
  14. I think you will get your extension letter before your leave the USA, assuming “late January” means the last 7 days of January. I expect it next week. If you leave without a letter, pay attention to the fluid rules on Covid. If a Covid test requirement is added for return to the USA, these requirements are usually not applied immediately. So if a requirement is announced, come home immediately. So far “biometrics” haven’t been mentioned. If biometrics are scheduled while you are gone, you can reschedule. So ensure you have a way to call USCIS from abroad.
  15. The constitution says they have to take an oath. It doesn’t say the Speaker has to administer the oath. It would appear every Speaker has been elected without a properly sworn Congress. Would love Alito to write the majority opinion.
  16. https://law.justia.com/codes/georgia/2021/title-40/chapter-6/article-12/section-40-6-270/ Looks like a weak case against you. I am warming up to @Family ‘s optimism. Have you talked to a criminal attorney yet?
  17. Our philosophy is to not lie (especially to federal employees) to obtain a benefit. You are seeing the pitfalls of K-1. You knew that, or should have known that. There were no shortage of people here advising others to not go the K-1 route.
  18. Interesting. I will tie up that loose end with California I did get a nasty gram from the DMV telling me my registration would be canceled since I no longer had auto insurance.
  19. You need a criminal defense lawyer and an immigration lawyer. It’s been a “few days”. Why haven’t you hired them? There is no DIY here. Best case your criminal defense lawyer gets the charges dropped or you are acquitted at trial. If so there is no basis to deny your N-400 and I-751
