  1. You can try a walk in but only after she receives the biometrics appointment notice No guarantee they will allow it on the day
  2. You will need to wait until you receive the notification os receipt of your I751 …. which will give her a 24 month extension … and also biometrics appointment or reuse. . She travels with the expired GC and the extension letter. Do not stay the full 6 months as that can create a break in continuity of residence for naturalization purpose. Under 6 months .. even by a week or two .. will be fine .
  3. Its up to you but there isn't really anything a lawyer can do here that you cant.
  4. You dont include your mom on your dads petition nor your dad on your moms petition They are each stand alone petitions USCIS doesn't recognize separated so if you are still married you include your spouse as a household member If you have no children then each petition is 1 for self 1 for spouse 1 for intending immigrant total 3 for each petition
  5. The “ green card process” is completed .. apart from receiving the physical card in the mail According to USCIS you are both now residing in the US. Her stay outside the US should be short enough to be explainable as a temporary stay overseas and not able to be construed as “living and working” overseas. Less than 1 year most definitely… less than 6 months is better.. as short as necessary is preferable Unfortunately absences overseas are always assessed at the discretion of the CBP officer when she reenters I hope that 1. She has paid the $220 card fee after receiving her passport back from the consulate. 2. The address she gave for postal delivery of the card is current and being checked by someone whom you trust
  6. Did you go through adjustment of status after marrying ? If yes, did you receive a Conditional green card .. if yes , what is the expiry date on the card ? When did you leave the US to reestablish your domicile in Canada ? Did you send any formal notification of your move / abandonment of LPR stats to USCIS ?
  7. CEAC status is not always updated .. he has an interview .. best evidence of status of his case ! Moved to IR/CR1 case filing and process
  8. CEAC status is not always updated .. he has an interview .. best evidence of status of his case !
  9. You are required to demonstrate your relationship. Usually people provide the required country issued birth certificate of the petitioner .. you .. it must have your parents name listed on it. Sometimes people don't have/cant get/ doesn't list parent… so the other evidence is then required. Not required if your BC gives all the required information
  10. Depending on the local field office assigned to your area, it will take 6-12 months for your interview to be scheduled. For a native english speaker used to studying .. give yourself 2 weeks to review the question/answers before your interview. There is a list of 100 specified questions and answers.. learn the answers word for word .. it is rote learning .. you want to parrot back the answer .. literally !! You have to get 6 correct out if 10 randomly selected questions from the list. As soon as you answer 6 correctly you're over that hurdle. Easy !!
  11. Incorrect. Previoys years incone under the requirement is not an issue. Current income must be above requirement ongoing and stable. Aduve given by other members such as Crazycat are 100% accurate. Also the correct term is joint sponsor not cosponsor. Pedantic yes but accuracy matters in all ways with the immigration process
  12. I am assuming you are a USC If this is correct, she does not need a visa as she already entered the US on a valid nonimmigrant visa. Because of her marriage to a USC you and your spouse files for adjustment of status. The I 130 established the immediate relative relationship. The I 485 is application for her adjustment of status to LPR. Concurrent filing for employment authorization EAD and travel she authorization AP is recommended. Read the uscis website and the guide on this website. You are looking at 8 or so months for the EAD and AP and 12-18 months for the AOS to be completed. 3 years after she achieves LPR status she can apply for naturalization .. as long as she meets the criteria Moved to AOS from tourist/student visa
  13. I will not say never but if your dates all line up…. there should be no issue Its also not just a waste of time and money, it actually adds to the confusion and contradiction and is counter productive to your I 90. According to your timeline you were over 2 years at entry.
  14. You can submit for as many relatives as you are able to show eligible relationships .. . just remember that each immigrant you sponsor adds to your household number for future petitions and increases the sponsor income threshold. So its really a question of “ how many can you afford to sponsor ?”
  15. K. I was going from memory .. ours was a few years ago and im not where i can look at my copy.
  16. It goes to the petitioner. Then when NVC has received the case they send the beneficiary a welcome letter with instructions for the next step If i recall correctly there is an A number for the beneficiary on the NOA2
  17. I read the OP as saying that the GC received has a 2 year expiry date .. therefore the “ system” will be looking for an ROC application. So there is a contradiction in the system which will eventually be sorted out .. the crunch will come if the I 90 isn't processed by the time the system is looking for the ROC .. and the OP no longer has either a current GC or an extension letter. @Edddie&Beatrice. I think filing for ROC will just muddy the water. Get an appt at the field office .. take the GC, the I90 NOA, your marriage certificate and at least get the I 551 stamp
  18. https://www.uscis.gov/green-card/after-we-grant-your-green-card/conditional-permanent-residence But if it has been longer than 2 yrs of marriage when the immigrant spouse enters the US on the spouse visa , they get the 10 yr green card and their lpr status is unconditional. No conditions to be to removed
  19. Yes. Every entry is always at the discretion of the CBP officer but you seem to have a good travel history and strong ties to Canada
  20. You've got 3-5 months once NVC gers it then the queue for the interview .. visit !! 😁
  21. Moved to AOS from tourist visa as this reflects the process that applies to OP
