See Do you want rhat to happen to you? Do you want USCIS to gas light you, and lie to you, and steal your I-751 fee? It is up to to you. @Axl7 this comment from me confuses you as per your reaction: I suggest your wife start posting here. Until then, I’ve contributed all I can, and I don’t wish to argue or bicker, so I won’t post more in this thread.

TR was a RINO. Lincoln, Reagan, Trump, were the only good and effective GOP presidents. I can understand the hate for Trump, but a lefty article that fails to bring up Reagan is absurd. If you read a righty article that said Truman and Clinton, were neither good nor effective presidents, would you take it seriously? C’mon.

https://www.visajourney.com/guides/ I expect well before the 30 years it takes for your sibling to get a visa, that family based parole will be broadened from fewer than 10 countries it is in place for today. With parole, someone will have to sign up for financial support. I would expect it to be form I-134A or similar. Family parole is invitation only so far. If there is no pending I-130, no invitation. IOW those who are not in line, get no invitation.

1. How old were you when he married his wife? 2. Who filed I-130? There are no derivatives for parents of U.S. citizens. She will not be immigrating when he does. He can file I-130 for her after he becomes an LPR. Category is F2A which has a 9 year wait. As she is over age 16, he in will not have enough time to naturalize under the 5 year rule and upgrade her I-130. 3. How old is he? If he enlists in the U.S. military, he can file immediately for U.S. citizenship. He would become a U.S. citizen well before she reaches age 21. If so, her CSPA age will be locked in at under age 21. I-864

I think; she’s was living at abc for years but moved to 1234 a month ago works.

Today I-765 and I-131 are free with I-485. They will not be in the future. It is bad enough for K-1s who wait months to years for an EAD or AP. Imagine K-1 couples who: * balk at the extra $1280, and suffer with estrangement from family and loss of income, or * pay the fee and never get an EAD or AP. It is legalized gambling

Standard procedure is to file I-824. However if I-130 has not been approved yet, I have seen a case where the I-130 was successfully amended to consular processing.

2008

Yes, but after I leave I won’t be able to come back in because I don’t have any legal documentation, airline won’t put me on flight.

When? We know they are wrong. Ok 2 put of 3 aren’t bad. 1. Do you have state ID or state DL? 2. Use FOIA to get your entire A file. That should get a copy of your GC 3. Use this process to get an ADIT, https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-announces-additional-mail-delivery-process-for-receiving-adit-stamp . An ADIT lets you travel.

then don’t Why ask I-751 questions since you now plan to not put her in a position where has to file I-751?

Most tier 1 officers from USCIS are stupider than a pail of hammers. We here on visa journey know more than most tier 1 officers. We will guide you now. 1. Do you have an unrestricted SS card? 2. Do you know your A number? 3, Do you have a copy of your GC?

It seems like your I-751 case was denied. 1. What reason does the denial letter give? Only an immigration judge can remove your status. 2. How long were you out of the U.S.? 3. Does https://acis.eoir.justice.gov/en/ show a case for you/

It will be several months before your fiancé(e) has to provide your I-134 to the consulate. By that time you will have more than 2 paychecks from your new job. https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-134instr.pdf In addition to pay stubs, provide the 5 things in bold above ^^^^^^

Agreed. With you involved, he is now in great hands.

I would amend your tax return to MFJ. Otherwise he can file his own MFS tax return.

No need to be concerned unless his income in 2022 required him to file. Does he have an SSN?

Once she files I-407, it might be difficult for her to visit the U.S. as the spouse of a U.S. citizen. The I-485 bell cannot be unrung. Once filed, expect that ESTA is gone forever.

She probably will have biometrics re-used.

Yes, if the Sex field on all GCs says F, Selective Service does not apply.

She is an LPR. That card has no applicability. And I suspect is expired. After waiting one year, she should have filed N-400 to become a citizen. She would be a citizen by now, and free to leave the U.S. without impact to her right to come back. 1. Re-entry permit requires filing I-131. 2. No. I-131 is a Swiss army knife. It used for applying for at least 3 different documents. 3. She can leave as soon as she gets the receipt from USCIS 4. Yes after she gets the receipt from USCIS 5. Given she will file for a re-entry permit, no. 6. The U.S. does not care. I do not know about Australia or the airline. 7. No 8. It will be processed and if an interview / biometrics is required you will both have to return to the U.S. / she will have to return to the U.S.

I am not seeing a mention of a birth certificate. Please highlight it for me. None of the above are birth certificates. Are you a male?

no. Rarely does USCIS require the applicant’s non U.S. birth certificate for an N-400 interview. Has USCIS sent you an interview letter asking you to bring your birth certificate?

That might be a bad plan. Reviewing her time line: Marriage (if applicable): 2021-10-02 Interview Date : 2023-07-31 Unless her visa expires 2023-10-15 or earlier, I urge her to enter the U.S. on or after 2023-10-02.

1. I-751 is not a priority for USCIS. We can deduce this from the fact that USCIS explicitly sets service level objectives for I-485 and other petitions and I-751 is not on the list. Why would USCIS move from 12, to 18, 24, and to 48 month extension letters if I-751 was a priority? Note that what USCIS is doing is not what Congress intended when it introduced conditional LPR status in 1986. The intent was a 90 day adjudication that completed before the 2 year GC expired. And if you look at ancient timelines on VJ, you will see this was the norm. USCIS now uses I-751 as a cash cow to pay for petitions that lose USCIS money. 2. Most conditional LPRs will naturalize. USCIS apparently prefers, at apparently most field offices, to not take up an I-751 until N-400 is filed. This is why Mrs @Crazy Cat had only a 44 month I-751 wait. Had she not filed N-400, she would still be waiting. 3. DHS would prefer LPRs just go away if they will not naturalize. The C in USCIS comes before the I. Before 9/11, the I in INS came before the N. If conditional LPRs never file I-751, eventually DHS will find them and deport them (not by this administration, but eventually). If they leave the U.S. they will not be able to board a flight home with an expired 2 year GC It is not just I-751. I-90 (for renewing 10 year GCs) has a 2 year wait now. Don’t get me started on the hassles LPRs have in several states to get drivers licenses. If REAL ID is ever enforced, at least hundreds of thousands of LPRs will be unable to fly. DHS welcomes immigrants but that welcome wears out after 9.5-11.5 years. One DHS officer put it colorfully yet succinctly: So I'm sitting here next to my coworker, a very good buddy of mine, and posed him this question: "hey, why don't we like LPRs?" (legal permanent residents) his response: "because half of them don't speak english, and the other half are criminals." https://www.reddit.com/r/travel/comments/4ozovk/comment/d4hc4s2/
