  1. If she is found to be ineligible to naturalize (fails civics test, fails english test, physical presence test, 3 month residency test, continuous residency test, etc), she remains an LPR. Some N-400 cases will go through the entire immigration history. If it is determined she was improperly issued a 2 year or 10 year GC, then yes she might lose her GC (aka LPR status). Here one of the most hideous cases I know of: In this case, USCIS said it would not move to revoke LPR status, but said citizenship was off the table until I-407 / I-485 / new GC / 3-5 years of new LPR status. The couple split. K-1 and Conditional LPR status is so dangerous for and unfair to immigrant spouses and children. In most USCIS districts, N-400s taking under 6 months. Hopefully online and not by mail.
  2. Yes. She can also print the page that requires her signature, sign it, scan it, and email / e-message to you. This is permanent policy now of USCIS: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-1-part-b-chapter-2 “ An original signature on the benefit request that is later photocopied, scanned, faxed, or similarly reproduced, unless otherwise required by form instructions”
  3. Then she is eligible under the 5 year rule. And https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship-resource-center/learn-about-citizenship/naturalization-eligibility-tool says so when I use her data. My wife got her 10 year gc in October 2022, and became a U.S. citizen February 2023.
  4. IME the 4 majors will rebook a pax who misses a connection due to CBP. The pax will be booked on the next available flight. Summer travel in the U.S. is worst time for a pax with no status on an airline: the next available flight can sometimes be days later. I know both AA and UA are struggling this summer due to weather based cancelations. The international arrivals hall at DFW is at times a zoo. At times it is a ghost town. It just depends on how many international flights have arrived. A single barbie jet arriving from Mexico vs 5 777s arriving at the same time are different scenes. The reasons 2.5 hours are not likely to be enough time: * It can take hours for a someone who is neither citizen nor LPR just to get to the head of line. This depends on where the pax is sitting on the plane, how many jetways are connected, and how many other flights arrive at the same time. * If the CBP officer decides to send the visa holder to secondary, that is another queue. The actual CBP interview will be under 5 minutes most times. I know of just one case where entry was denied.
  5. Yours and hers should not need to, but the whims of a CO are unpredictable.
  6. 1. Hope the card arrives before you vacate. 2. Once you have tracking number attempt to have package intercepted and delivered elsewhere. See https://www.usps.com/manage/package-intercept.htm#eligibility I am surprised you would not have card delivered to your lawyer. We specified to have the card delivered to our lawyer, as we expected the card to be approved after our anticipated move, and (with good reason) we do not trust AR-11 to have any effect. It worked well. Once we had a tracking number, we booked a flight to arrive the day before the card was due, and picked up the card 15 minutes after delivery.
  7. In person meetings are critical to confidence in visa approval.
  8. See what https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship-resource-center/learn-about-citizenship/naturalization-eligibility says
  9. As of September 1, 2023, F2A will not be current for filing I-485. And once it is not current, I-485 cannot be filed. You need to get an I-485 package filed in the next 5 days, to ensure it gets there and marked as received by September 1. You have what you need. You do not need your husband’s income. Current income is what you will earn between today Aug 12, 2023 and Aug 11, 2024, inclusive. Focus on your son’s I-485 package now.
  10. I-864. Legally unemployment benefits can count, but practically, since these be benefits will not last, I expect push back from DoS or USCIS. 1. How old is your child? 2. How old was your child when you married your current U.S. citizen husband? 3. Is your child in the U.S. today?
  11. Worst case scenario: * you have no extension letter * embassy backlogs processing of boarding foils * GC expires while waiting for boarding foil * I-751 interview is scheduled while you are out * you miss interview and I-751 is denied * embassy then denies boarding foil because I-751 is denied You are going through stages of grief on your travel plans and are still in denial. You have time to get to the acceptance stage in the event you do not have an extension letter in hand when you are scheduled to depart the U.S. On the positive side, Chileans have a visa waiver for Mexico, you would still be an LPR provided your trial does nkt happen before you return. So you could enter the US by land from Mexico.
  12. Current is fine. You need your original evidence of U.S. citizenship.
  13. This is bizarre. Now file N-600 online. With the proper evidence. No usps to get in the way.
  14. Because the airline might not board with a copy of an original extension letter That close to GC expiration, I would wait for the extension letter.
