It could be anything. Probably some general questions about her immigration journey, places of residence, dates, etc. "D. Subsequent Re-examination USCIS may schedule an applicant for a subsequent examination (re-examination) to determine the applicant’s eligibility.[35] During the re-examination: The officer reviews any evidence provided by the applicant in a response to a Request for Evidence issued during or after the initial interview. The officer considers new oral and written testimony and determines whether the applicant meets all of the naturalization eligibility requirements, to include re-testing the applicant on the educational requirements (if necessary). In general, the re-examination provides the applicant with an opportunity to overcome deficiencies in his or her naturalization application. Where the re-examination is scheduled for failure to meet the educational requirements for naturalization during the initial examination, the subsequent re-examination is scheduled between 60 and 90 days from the initial examination.[36] If the applicant is unable to overcome the deficiencies in his or her naturalization application, the officer denies the naturalization application. An applicant or his or her authorized representative may request a USCIS hearing before an officer on the denial of the applicant’s naturalization application.[37]" Source: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-b-chapter-3

Some removal of conditions include a waiver or are based on extreme hardship.

Then maybe it was printed by the IO, not by the system. Therefore the different format and odd text. I don't think you should worry AT ALL. I mean, asking for a blue pen?

Thanks for sharing. Maybe they changed format? It is so different from the notifications I've seen before.

Must be a system issue. There are recent reports from members dealing with the same problem.

Could you please upload an image of the letter where it states all this?

File an e-request for missing notifications: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDNForm.do?sroPageType=ndn&entryPoint=init Guess you have not changed address recently? And I suggest you creating a USPS informed delivery account.

The important box was checked. You should not have issues.

You're welcome. I truly hope everything gets fixed. And include the marriage statement too, it won't hurt. Agents that review ROC cases are used to literally pounds of evidence. Don't forget to include evidence for each thing you mention on the hardship statement; e.g.: if you mention losing education opportunities include the letter from your graduate program, etc.

Absolutely. Include everything you can think of. And as I said, elaborate: for instance, don't just say "I'm not fluent in X language" but "The lack of communication skills will negatively affect every aspect of my life, from daily interactions to forming meaningful relationships which will lead to ostracizing and alienation. It will also limit my opportunities in regard to education and employment..."

The window to file for removal of conditions is 90 days prior the expiration of the conditional green card. So this new filing should include a letter explaining why you are filing many years later - which would obviously be the denial-. And I understand why you are confused -I am also very confused-. If you feel better checking that box, do so. But you are actually filing on your own now.

It is funny that you replied 445 days after the question was asked. 😁

I don't think you should check box 1d, just 1g. 1d literally reads "My marriage..." But I do think you should include the statement - and don't forget the letter explaining the late filing-. P.S.: A box not checked or checked erroneously should not cause a denial, but an RFE.

It is all about how you present the facts and emphasize on the negative impact if you leave the US. If you were accepted into graduate school you are already familiar with the personal statement/ statement of purpose and how convincing and compelling they must be. So the same should apply in this case: elaborate exhaustively on all the points the policy manual states that apply to you, be thorough, dwell on the minutiae. And contact the ombudsman ASAP. They might act fast given the specifics of your case.

Yes. https://visa.vfsglobal.com/usa/en/gbr/apply-visa

The priority service guarantees a decision in 5 working days while normal processing gives a decision within 3 weeks.

Have you read this: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-9-part-b-chapter-5

No, you won't be granted entry to the US with the approval letter.

On a quick search I found it does not apply for removal of conditions. My guess is you want to be a derivative of your mum's petition to avoid paying the fee of your own petition?

Thanks for mentioning this. Many members of the forum have met online and it is no longer a "weird" thing, but one has to take many precautions when meeting in person, particularly someone like the OP, who is still a teenager. @Kokoro_Minora, the whole thing now might seem super romantic, dreamy, movie like, but you have to be wary, protect yourself and think in a practical way. Obviously the safest choice is him visiting but even then, having a stranger in your house? Not the best idea. And if he stayed in a hotel, who would pay? That of course, if his tourist visa application was approved. As others have said, visit him, but DO NOT TRAVEL ALONE. Make your mum, relatives or friends go with you or join a group and meet him just for movies or coffee. And definitely do not stay with him. Or go old school and hold a lovely epistolary relationship until you're both fininancially sound and old enough to meet in person without asking your mum.

You could try getting assistance from the Ombudsman, as that's exactly the kind of case they help with. Maybe they can do something despite the motion and the years that have passed. You lose nothing contacting them.

Unless there is a long queue, it should take 10-15 minutes at most: you fill a form, then get a photo taken and finally the fingerprints. Voilà!

Here's the thread I was talking about. It was not ROC but AOS. In any case, it is possible to reopen a case without filing a motion if the issue was a missing notification. @BaiBlueberry I am truly sorry you went through this and I wish you the best of luck on this new filing. BTW, maybe you should file a complaint against that lawyer.

Approximately a year ago if I am not mistaken, there was a couple whose removal of conditions was denied after rescheduling their interview and not receiving any notification for the new date. Believe it or not, after several phone calls and an appointment at their local office, they were able to get the case reopened and the interview scheduled. I know you are way past that as many years have elapsed since the denial, but I think it is important to know that such scenario is feasible. I'll try to find the thread and if I do, I'll post it.
