  1. Canada or Mexico are the only countries US shares land border with. So if you travel by land, you won't be going through pre clerance. Land border is the most reliable method of travel. Airlines can deny boarding the plane, but with land crossing you are dealing with US CBP on US soil directly.
  2. Why not? You're eligible and it is the most effective option to unblock your case: You are not going to go to court yourself. Lawyers who specialize in this file WoM, USCIS asks for time to resolve it, and they process your case before any hearing. Then lawyer withdraws the lawsuit and you never go to court.
  3. You can safely leave it out. These are typically used by lawyers and professional interpreters.
  4. Sure you could even travel internationally if needed. Make sure to have your GC and extension letter with you. But most likely you won't need to show it at all. Use real ID like DL for TSA
  5. Agreed, while I don't have proof, to me, denial of entry / boarding is a lot easier to get while at preclearance. You simply have more rights on US soil
  6. Check DS-3025. If box "K Visa applicant voluntarily completed vaccination requirements" is checked, then no I-693 is needed
  7. Of course I naturalized earlier this year, so trying to help others. Happy Thanksgiving!
  8. Congratulations! Make sure he applies for large passport book (free upgrade) and updates status with SSA after naturalizing.
  9. I don't think many would be eligible to file under 5 year rule if they filed I-751 in Jan 2025. There is a small percentage of those who had to refile I-751 (divorce waiver, death of spouse, failed joined petition). Maybe those would be.
  10. The only thing that really matters is when you're actually employed. Promises do not carry as much weight IMHO.
  11. Not sure about that, but when they are actually employed, they can definitely be a joint sponsor.
  12. There's tons of things like that in immigration, unfortunately. As an example, K-3 visas still can be filed, but in practice, do not get issued (maybe 2 a year?) Or, many people entered the US on parole, and were considered legal few years back, but now perceived illegal... Or, some people out of status getting put in removal in San Diego though they filed I-130 and I-485, are in authorized stay period and technically, overstay should be forgiven... Or MyProgress says 3 months until decision for somebody and it takes 12 months...
  13. You can find plenty examples on Visa Journey, Reddit and other websites where people thought they had qualifying assets, but USCIS did no accept them. Some folks on VJ say it's because they were not documented properly. You can try, I am a strong believer qualifying joint sponsor with income is a much easier path. Here are some examples of failed attempts to use assets: I can continue posting those examples I've seen over the years.
  14. Unfortunately, it is the only option if he cannot show his clearly qualifying income to sponsor you.
  15. Fantastic, congratulations! Getting a passport card was a smart move. Did you apply for large passport book (free upgrade)? Also remember to update status with SSA once you get passport.
  16. Interesting. I guess this explains things a bit https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/uscis-updates-policy-to-automatically-extend-green-cards-for-naturalization-applicants
  17. Tons of money. It also depends whether you file some forms electronically or everything on paper, some forms are optional as I stated above. Fee calculator can be found here https://www.uscis.gov/feecalculator
  18. She should not be signing I-751. You need to file I-751 with divorce waiver.
  19. Congratulations! Surprised it's only for 6 months. It used to be 12 mo as a standard
