  1. IMO, USCIS will want something from the court house that has a seal of some kind: * inked stamp * embossed stamp, and/or * official decal
  2. Generally * you have to use an examiner the consulate or embassy specifically authorizes * each consulate and embassy has a specific process for conveying the exam results to the interviewing officer
  3. Yes if: * DL of each spouse shows same address * you include front and back of each spouse’s DL
  4. This varies by field office. It is known that in Seattle and Saint Albans it does the reverse. It is always wise to research the field office before filing N-400. Sorry you are on hold. DIY WoM for I-751 should be your next consideration.
  5. As an aside, I finally figured out who @Redro is. Redro, you devil, you changed your user name!
  6. Possibly never. Yes Yes. I believe Jim Hacking has claimed USCIS audio records USCIS interviews. I recommend you talk to an immigration lawyer. Hacking has a live youtube show. I suggest you call in and let us know when you do.
  7. 1. Did you know the new spouse before marrying the previous spouse? 2. Is the old spouse from the origin country?
  8. Well there you go. 1. Did that beneficiary get a GC? 2. Was petitioner born in U.S.? Petitioner should have an immigration attorney present at the I-130 interview.
  9. Yes. Depends. Is your new spouse from your country of origin? No I entered as an F-1 student, married a U.S. citizen, adjusted status to LPR, divorced, naturalized, K-1ed a fiancee, married her, she adjusted status to GC, she RoCed, and then she naturalized. She has entered the U.S. as a U.S. citizen once so far, and yesterday she had her first encounter with an internal border patrol checkpoint as a U.S. citizen. Each encounter was without incident. I am Canadian, my wife is Burmese. We did not know each other before I * entered the U.S. as an F-1 * received my GC
  10. Good. So that means, legally you can file to adjust status. Once you file, you will have authorized presence. The link I have says to file I-131 to get advance parole. You should do so. However, due to the overstay and potential ban, I would not use it except for emergencies. While the precedent of the decision of Matter of Arrabally and Yerrabelly should protect you, there are urban legends where CBP did not obey the precedent.
  11. You should indicate you lived in NC for those two years. Presumably you filed AR-11 at the time. The lease and insurance indicates shared finances so it should be included. At your interview, be upfront that you lived apart from your spouse.
  12. I-130 interviews are rare. It indicates problems with the case. Has petitioner filed other I-130s before?
  13. Agreed. Do not. Agreed. Submit unsolicited evidence of the current face to face meeting in progress.
  14. I would not press your ex’s generosity. Take the win your lawyer has blessed.
  15. I doubt it No, and besides which that ship has sailed. The ISO(s) who adjudicated I-130 or I-485 could have raised the issue then. Unless the LPR had foreign earned income since becoming an LPR, I see no reason why an ISO would ask for this when tax return transcripts are provided.
  16. I would do this. I would prepare a new I-864 if the petitioner lives in the U.S. and earns enough money.
  17. U.S. is fine with her leaving and entering the U.S. with just her gc However airlines generally want a passport in addition to the gc.
  18. Get something in writing that says there is no record of traffic citations in that jurisdiction.
  19. That is up to CBP: Worst case: detention until you are bonded out. Your petitioner and joint sponsor should have the money. These are worst case scenarios that are unlikely to occur, as I have noted.
