    The person you talked to is awfully wrong and you shouldn't be taking any more immigration advice from them. This person suggested to do biometrics while she's in the US. Do they think biometrics is just a walk-in you can do any day? Nope. The biometric appointment set up by USCIS once you submit the AOS package. And once you submit the package, she can't leave the US because her process will be deemed abandoned. I STRONGLY suggest you and your fiancee both sign up for an account here, and read about the process.

    Did you mean DV? If so, no, you don't need to interrupt the other petition. The two of them can coexist. Additionally, have you though of getting married and filing for a spousal visa instead? Paging @Crazy Cat about pros and cons of each.

    Your list looks very comprehensive to me. I included ALL bank statements from for the previous two years. Don't be me. It was an overkill. Just do quarterly bank statements and you will be fine.

    I think maybe there's a misunderstanding. You will need proof of domicile in the US. Bank accounts, retirement accounts, health insurance, do not prove that. A lease/ property title does. A driver's license with a US address might help too. A job contract does. The CO might request to see evidence that you are either already living in the US, or that you have solid, concrete plans to move by a certain date. It is also advisable that you move either before or with your spouse (do not have the beneficiary come first on their own)

    That's not enough. You have to prove that you are either living or planning to live in the US. The reason why is because they want to avoid giving residency to people that will just visit from time to time. Also, filing taxes is your obligation as a USC. It has nothing to do with living in the US. A lease, a library card, open and active bank accounts are things you should have if you plan on living in the US. When you do plan on moving to the US?

    I do not know the answers to your questions, but I do know that for the I-130 you will, at some point, need to show them that you're either living or intend to live in the US. Have you considered using this opportunity to do so?

    Mine took about two weeks. But you just sent it on a holiday, so it might take longer.
  8. Rocio0010
    Online updates are BS. As long as your case is straightforward, there is nothing you can do right now.

    Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it imho

    Start by going to the county's courthouse of where the incidents happened. Also, if you paid them online, see if there's a webpage you can access to get the records. Or maybe see if you kept receipts on your email.

    Columbus, Ohio Interview August 30th. Oath ceremony notification: the next day Oath ceremony: Sept 19th.

    You will also have to prove domicile in the US later on, so chances are you have to come earlier than your family and get a lease, open a bank account, get a drivers license, etc. All thing that prove that you are living in the US. Also, you either come before or together with your husband and kids (they can't come before you)

    Why wouldn't the person be able to bring it? Do they owe taxes? I made a post about my interview experience with the civics test. I will see if I can find it. It's not speaking and writing. It's reading and writing. They ask you to read aloud a question, and then you have to write the answer they tell you to.

    Zero issues. And that was not the only information I had to correct.
  16. Rocio0010
    I have seen so many of these cases whereby the total marriages are wrong (myself included!) that I am thinking it might be a glitch in the system. Two options: either you proceed online and clarify at the interview (I did that, but that's because I didn't realize this mistake until the day prior to the interview) or you file by paper.
  17. Rocio0010
    I came twice... Once around 2,5 hrs in and the other some time later...

    I wanna believe USCIS officers have more urgent things to worry about.
  19. Rocio0010
    You're fine. Just keep all the notices that USCIS sends you (in case you need to prove anything, which I doubt)
  20. Rocio0010
    Again, not checking the application thoroughly is rushed. Especially since you sent it the very first day. You could have waited. Why does your lawyer think it's better to wait to file 2023 taxes to get your records? Although you can bring them to the interview, submitting them with the application would have brought you a more speedy approval since they officer would have already reviewed them. Anyhow, water under the bridge. Good luck!

    Not inside.... it's been shared that it is going to be on the 16th. He also said he might join VJ
  22. Rocio0010
    Surprisingly none of your reasons not to file is "we are trying to work on the relationship"
  23. Rocio0010
    He just changed the time to 2:30 pm CST To OP: your case is way outside of normal processing times. Are there are red flags? Specifically: where’s your spouse from? Is there a significant age difference? where were you born? Has she ever been married before? Have you ever granted immigration benefits to someone else?
  24. Rocio0010
    It's ok. I actually didn't realize of this mistake on my own form until a week before my interview -it wasn't an issue. I corrected it there and then.
  25. Rocio0010
    Filing the application the same day you’re eligible without really checking the details is rushed. You said in your initial post that your attorney suggested you to wait until after you filed 2023 taxes to obtain tax records from 2019-2023. That’s tax advice, which, again, your lawyer has no business in giving because obviously he has zero clue what he’s talking about. You can download the 2019 tax return in the next five minutes. So again, either the lawyer is incompetent, or there is a language barrier. You should have front loaded it. USCIS knows that they can’t require 2023 taxes until April 18th 2024. Not formally, but my husband taught me how to use guns.
