  1. What matters is the expiry date on your I-94, not on your K1 visa. After your I-94 expires, you will be out of status. But with an I-485 receipt, you have proof of authorized stay, so no issue even out of status.
  2. *** Moved from US Citizenship Progress Reports to General Discussion ***
  3. *** Moved from K1 Progress Reports to IR1/CR1 Progress Reports *** Check here -- https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/k1list.php?op6=All&op66=All&op7=India&op1=3&op2=&dfile=No&op3=5&op4=1&op5=5%2C6%2C8%2C10%2C11%2C13%2C14%2C15%2C16%2C17%2C18%2C20%2C21%2C22%2C25%2C26%2C27%2C28%2C108%2C110%2C111%2C208%2C210%2C211&cfl=
  4. *** Moved from ROC General Discussion to General Immigration-Related Discussion -- topic is about address change, not ROC ***
  5. *** Moved from K1 Progress Reports to AOS from K1 Visas forum -- topic is about medical for AOS ***
  6. Does your CEAC case status now say "Ready"? Have you checked the USTravelDocs portal to see if your case may now be self-scheduled?
  7. *** Removed related thread. Please post your related questions/updates in this thread to keep the discussion in one place. ***
  8. *** Moved from IR1/CR1 Progress Reports to Effects of Major Family Changes on Immigration Benefits, where similar topics are discussed ***
  9. *** Moved from Bringing Family of USC forum to Working & Traveling During US Immigration, to be among other threads about emergency AP ***
  10. Required vaccinations for adult applicants up to 59 years old -- Td/Tdap, MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis B, Flu (seasonal), COVID. Details here -- https://www.cdc.gov/immigrantrefugeehealth/panel-physicians/vaccinations.html#tbl1 If you've had chickenpox before, the clinic may take your word for it and not require Varicella vaccine. Full series of shots for COVID will be required prior to the medical, but boosters not required for immigration purposes.
  11. If your father already filed an I-130 petition for you, and you got married only after he became a USC, then no need for him to file another I-130 for you. Your existing case will just convert from F1 (unmarried adult son/daughter of USC) to F3 (married son/daughter of USC). Note that it will likely take at least 10 years longer for you to get an F3 visa interview than if you had remained unmarried and eligible for F1 visa.
  12. You asked for the worst case scenario. Long version of @Boiler's answer -- waiver gets denied --> you're not able to submit complete I-693 --> I-485 gets denied --> you're put in removal proceedings --> you go home. Not-worst-case scenario -- you file another waiver with stronger evidence if the current one gets denied. If the I-485 gets denied before your waiver gets approved, file another I-485 before you get the Notice to Appear (NTA) for removal proceedings.
  13. Please clarify -- Are you asking about the filing fee for another I-130 petition? Also, did you get married before your father became a US citizen?
  14. Did you upload a recent pay stub from her current job and label it as proof of income? In part 6, item 7 of the I-864, did you follow the formula mentioned above by @Crazy Cat in listing her current annual income? The job contract is not enough unless it lists her name and annual salary. Does the publicly available state employee income listing have her name and salary on the document?
  15. Make sure that you use the current edition of the I-485 and other forms. Along with the latest forms, you may simply resend the rest of the documentary evidence you submitted before. Reminder for the I-485, part 2 -- check item 1a (Family-based, Person admitted to the US as a K1 fiance), and fill out items 3 & 4 with the I-129F receipt number and date. If you did what you said in your post here from years ago and your packet was not rejected then, your PD is sometime in October 2020. Hopefully you have a record of the receipt number written somewhere or in your emails or chats --
  16. For the US domicile requirement, submit a letter stating your intent to reside in the US at the same time as your wife, and list specific concrete steps you are taking in preparation for your move. Along with the letter, submit documentary evidence of those concrete steps. Are you contacting real estate agents to help you look for a house in the US? Are you communicating with shipping companies to transport your household items? Have you set up a US bank account? Do you have a valid US driver's license? Are you registered to vote in US elections? As to the income requirement, you may need to consult with your lawyer or accountant on how to document that your income from the French company will continue when you move to the US.
  17. *** Moved from US Citizenship General Discussion to the India regional forum, where topics related to OCI are discussed ***
  18. *** Moved from IR1/CR1 Progress Reports to IR1/CR1 Process & Procedures ***
  19. *** Moved from US Citizenship Progress Reports to General Discussion *** List your stepchild on your N-400 to comply with the form instructions. No need to volunteer any reason why you did not list them on your previous forms. In the (highly unlikely) event that you get asked about it at the interview, just be truthful and admit that you did not realize that you had to list your stepchild. I assume your stepchild is a USC. If so, the prior omissions were not material info to your I-485 and I-751 cases. That is, having a USC stepchild would not have been a significant factor in deciding your previous cases, unless your current spouse sponsored your GC and did not count the child in their household in the I-864.
  20. *** Moved from K1 Progress Reports to K1 Process & Procedures ***
  21. No, even remote work is not allowed while in the US on VWP/ESTA. Do not jeopardize your K1 process by violating the terms of your tourist stay.
  22. That is not a simple clerical error, so you will likely need a family lawyer in the Philippines to get the birth certificate corrected. There may need to be a court hearing. Check here for more info -- https://psa.gov.ph/article/correction-entry Even if your mom is somehow able to get her name on the birth certificate, the PSA BC will likely be annotated and will show that the correction was made when the daughter is already over 18. The US embassy in Manila tends to require additional identity/relationship documents from the visa applicant when they have a late-registered or corrected BC. DNA testing may also be required. But that is something to worry about in the far future. Sort out the PSA birth certificate first.
