  1. did the lawyer give u copy of the package? even my not great ex lawyer's assistant always give me copy of any application that they did for me. if you have it, take a look what's been submitted. i agree with others, i-824 take forever and costly, if u still in status, just go back and do consular processing. cheaper as well than AOS
  2. i dont see the reason why not since at the moment u dont have to pay for i-765 ( fee is included on i-485) also with i-131. always claim all benefit that you can get. depend on ur local FO, ur i-485 might take long time to be approve, i-765 is the bridge while u are waiting for ur GC. many people said " we dont need it" and turned out later on they really need it for emergency
  3. recent report said gc can be up to 3 months receive in hand. just wait the stamp on passport usually is adit stamp ( i-551) that's valid for 1 year. adit stamp is equal green card (status) you can go to SSA office and request one if u like : https://secure.ssa.gov/poms.nsf/lnx/0110211025 with that adit / i-551 stamp
  4. Usually depend on age. And make sure ur DL can be use the whole time. Most states required the resident to get local DL I think 10-20 days after you reside in the area ? I only exclusively rent from Avis because my partner has some status so we can get basic economy price for $25 ish/day but always 100% got a non basic economy. Smaller car with better gas milage always a better idea
  5. Are you saying u want to rent a car ? Or lease or something else ? Usually rent is short term and lease is longer
  6. it varies. can be days, weeks or months and no exact timeline
  7. they dont need to fly to NY specifically just for GC they can fly to any port of entry and just update it with the officer and hope for the best nothing u can do beside update AR-11 and inform the officer when they land
  8. Nah it just template from them use for various purposes, eg EAD. When did u go to SSA office btw?
  9. definitely wait and make sure ur visa is not expired by then
  10. @INFneed to see the top part of the letter, just blur ur info. the top part is the most important one. i had 2 letters, before and after and the difference is at the top one EDIT : never mind, no need to post another photo. that's the 2nd letter that i got. u should be good
  11. probably this week. already got the letter from local SSA office that said " this letter is a receipt" and wait for ur SSN card in 2 weeks. letter dated same day when my case status changed. i know usually the card itself printed in their HQ in maryland.
  12. i assume it's for consular processing? do u do consular processing in ur home country? usually u need to show the vaccination record to the appointment doctor on approved list in that country they will know what to do. unless u are not in italy right now because i see the ur country is netherland
  13. No dismiss whatsoever on the order. Motion to terminate proceeding granted. That’s it
  14. Motion to terminate proceeding. ( that’s the exact word, no without prejudice ) similar with @Demise sans motion to dismiss. Filed PD twice to OPLA Boston and went black hole. OPLA gone AWOL and never responded. Call, email they ignored all. Saw that Coronado Acevedo on Nov and chased my lawyer for 6 weeks straight before he responded. File motion to terminate proceeding directly to the court on Christmas Eve and got approved Jan 17. Judge is not even in Boston, he’s in Virginia (WebEx) and yeah dismiss = usually joint with ICE, terminate = court. It doesn’t really matter really. Case closed forever
  15. U can use G-1450. Make sure to call the bank and let them now there’s gonna be transaction $1,225 soon. Sometimes G-1450 bounced back. I personally prefer personal cheque
  16. those 2are unrelated. it really depend how busy is ur field office who process the i-485 u dont need i-130 biometric since it filed by the petitioner and not the beneficiary
  17. You can. Only to the extend look what is the case status said. Can’t do much. Either “returned to agency” or “case under review”
  18. in my understanding photos are weak when we submitted in the initial package but during interview based on my experience and reports from bunch of my friends, 99% IO loveeeed photos friend got interview in Feb 2023 and didnt bring any wedding picture because she already submitted it in the initial package, but the officer who interviewed asked where's the photo, so my friend show the wedding pics from her cell phones
  19. when u said you applied for SSN, did you go to SSA office ? if yes, what date is that? in SAVE check website, u said the status said "returned to agency", when is the date of the case check? is it the same day when u went to SSA office? has the status ever change to "case under review" ever ? or you never check at all on SAVE check periodically? depend on ur answer, if your case has been "case under review" for a while and it changed to "returned to agency" recently u might get ur SSN in a week. but sometimes SSA office cant do that automatically so u have to call their local SSA office ( not the national SSA number ) and ask them to "verified" 1 more time to finalize the whole process. this happened to me, my "case under review" for almost 2 months before change to "returned to agency" few days ago. they said they are going to send the card and i should received it soon now if you dont know if ur case status ever been "case under review" at all and the date of the case check = the day u went there, u need to call them and ask them
  20. Common in my country. I will leave it blank to avoid any issue following the birth certificate / passport. So many variation “no name given” “FNU” etc. for example : friend did consular processing, her name in passport just 1 name. But on the immigrant visa it stated “BLABLA FNU”, US visa can’t have single name. So it’s automatic added that FNU. already there’s discrepancy. And when she made state ID, it become “BLABLA No name given” literally that’s on her state ID are u guys doing AOS or Consular processing ? If AOS and u already got married, my suggestion add ur last name on her AOS application. The marriage certificate will be the legal document for that. I helped couple of people with same issue during AOS, easier in the future for them to do anything in the US with last name. So now at least 3 friends without last name now all their documentation in the US had last name on it and only their home country passport is different “ one name “ and file I-130 paper instead so u can leave the surname blank if it’s consular processing
  21. chat / call uscis : first question say " info pass" second question say "live agent" you will bypass bot that way
  22. lol the day i got my GC husband nagged me to apply for NEXUS $50/5 years on the same day which i did. with nexus he can use global entry if there's kiosk to use and also got TSA pre check. wait time 12-14 months. and cant apply for Global entry while NEXUS is pending. global entry wait time about 6-8 months too SMH
  23. that usually my go to advise unless directed otherwise, stay as a unit, USC can stay in non USC line but dont try the other way around to avoid issue, unless of course some agent told non USC can go to USC line. not to hijack OP post, what about if husband have global entry and we are coming back to the US by air? knowing him, he probably want to use the kiosk and collect the bag while im waiting in "peasant" line. should we stick together? i really dont think it necessary since we are coming back anyway. any thought?
