    Proof of legal residency in the US is covered by the GC .. The state agency is looking for evidence of their address in this state. Not covered by what OP already has.
  2. Lil bear
    No .. the state requires evidence of residency in the state. Get on a mailing list for a catalog. .. its as easy as that.

    Life insurance policies with the partner /fiancé as the beneficiary and the current surrender value of claimed. As Boiler said.. Not usually something fiancés hold on each other

    DS 260 will reflect address changes and then it can be updated at the interview of our has changed since completing the DS 260 AR 11 is needed for address changes after the immigrant enters the US using the visa.
  5. Lil bear
    My take would be that this AR11 only becomes necessary once the NVC stage is reached. But i am confused .. what is actually being applied for ? immigrant visa which will be finalised at the home country consulate interview.. or adjustment of status ? Im thinking the first and the 601 waiver will be required because of a ban that will be incurred when B the petitioner leaves the US (unlawful presence) and the visa is initially denied. Would appreciate your clarification just so in can be sure that I’m on the right track

    The I130 is the petitioners part. Until the case is sent to the Nvc, the address change of the beneficiary doesnt matter.. Is there beneficiary in the US or in their home country ?
  7. Lil bear
    This feels like a really loaded question … lots not said. Who applied for an I130 petition? Who is the petitioner… who is the beneficiary .. what’s the “ immediate relative” relationship ?

    You are not hiding anything. This is the correct way of reporting your situation. My son filed for both of us (parents) and this is how he successfully completed and submitted the AOS for for each of us No RFE
  9. Lil bear
    Each AOS family number will be you+your spouse and dependents + 1 At this time you aren’t actually sponsoring anyone.. Not until the visa is granted and activated wrestled with this same question a few years ago.. same scenario

    Huh. I had to sign mine at the registration table before the ceremony.

    One Aussie to another .. well done !! Yes go ahead and do the N400 and be done with USCIS. The citizenship test is very “doable” with a couple of weeks of rote learning before the Interview. No doubt at all that you will pass it !!!
  12. Lil bear
    It may be the readability of the scan. Accept only means they received it into the system not that it is deemed correct
  13. Lil bear
    You were supposed to sign it in front of the agent before the ceremony. How did this not happen?
  14. Lil bear
    Met within the last 2 years refers to face to face meeting. Where are you both ?
  15. Lil bear
    Sometimes they want the original paper copy. Take that and several photocopies in case they want to keep one.
  16. Lil bear
    You could skip under the radar without any issues or you could get asked more tricky questions any time .. If you are asked the “ Where do you live “ question, its likely that you would get a stern warning that will be recorded on your file .. and you would then have to do much more to establish ties and be seen as having domicile in the US. Everyone will have a different feeling towards risk and what you feel ok to run with will be by different to me or others on here

    You paid money for poor service. Show your “advisor” this and firmly request a refund of service fees paid to them. From the State website
  18. Lil bear
    What stage are you are with the N400 process. ? Initial submission? RFE? Post interview ?? my general reply to “ how long “question is “ how long is a piece of string? .. read “no idea”
  19. Lil bear
    Yes
  20. Lil bear
    No attorney needed for this as long as you have good documentation and clear records. Good to do Dec 2024 as you are clear of the 3 years
  21. Lil bear
    A bigger picture thought is that it may well work once but not a second time unless she spends significant time in the US .. so it is not really a long term solution
  22. Lil bear
    I hope you were actually going for naturalisation not neutralisation !! 🤪 Please post a photo of the actual paperwork you were given with personal details redacted. It helps us to give the best answer if we can see the paperwork.
  23. Lil bear
    she will most probably be asked how long she has been out of the US and why. That can trigger what can be very solid questioning by CBP and can be very intimidating especially to sometimes who is not confident in arguing the finer points of the law. If you are considering having her try, it might be worth considering going to her home county and traveling back with her.
  24. Lil bear
    Yes it is one possibility. CBP doesn’t take “Not knowing” very well. Technically she should be let in but this is a very challenging way to try to renter and not for the uninformed or unprepared as arriving in Secondary inspection is pretty confrontational
  25. Lil bear
    The option is to finally stop being naive and do things right. This will take time but it’s better than continuing the way you are going Relinquish the GC formally using I407 Apply for a visitor visa after that step 1 has been completed No it wont happen in time for the baby’s birth But this is the reality of living in different countries to your parents / children. A reality we all live with on here
