    I've seen some communities online where people collect and showcase passport stamps. Some even go as far ask requesting it from border authorities when stamp is not provided by default. But the worst (in my opinion) is getting those stamps from tourist offices (San Marino, Monaco) where border control does not exist or even street vendors (Machu Picchu). Getting random stamps in official document can invalidate passport. I like stamps, but I collect them organically. If border authority has the protocol and need to stamp my passport - sure, otherwise - no thanks. What do you do when travelling?

    2-6 weeks. You have Christmas and New Year, which adds few days of delay. Plus potential weather issues depending on where you are. If you have USPS Informed Delivery, most likely you will see package from Lee's Summit Production Facility there before USCIS gives you tracking number

    Good points! But hence my response "typically". Quite a few women don't change their name or revert back to maiden.

    Happy Holidays

    OldUser posted a topic in Off Topic

    Dear Visa Journey community, From the bottom of my heart I wish everybody Merry Christmas (if you celebrate) and Happy Holidays! May the next year will bring the grant of immigration benefit to you and your family, no matter what you are waiting for! Best Regards, OldUser

    Just right to the same address you got your receipts from USCIS. Honestly, all of this is optional. The moment marriage ended and AOS was abandoned, you are not liable for I-864 or anything else.
  6. OldUser
    You typically do not need that marriage certificate. Just divorce decree for prior marriage.

    That is great! Congrats! It may or may not update. Typically next status is when green card is produced and sent to you by USPS

    Congratulations!

    MyProgress never makes any sense. Estimated processing times are for 80% of cases. You are in 20%

    K-3 is pointless. Do not waste your time, and more importantly USCIS adjudicator's time.
  11. OldUser
    That is correct. Neither EAD (work authorization doc) nor Advance Parole (travel doc) are applicable when green card is received. There are no refunds either.

    Case will continue to denial, actually
  13. OldUser
    That would be very unusual. You can try, but don't be surprised if you get a push back or delay because of this.
  14. OldUser
    K3 is useless

    You can request ADIT stamp close to expitaration. When are you eligible to file for naturalization?
  16. OldUser
    How come? The extension letters are 48 months nowadays.
  17. OldUser
    Rescheduling has two potential problems though: 1) This will delay processing 2) We don't know when new appointment will become available Another thought: since you have appointment letter now, just take it to same location and try getting it done before your trip @Lesleylou81

    Calling does not guarantee agent won't say: "Yeah, I updated it" without updating it. You do not have any proof of changing address with calls. It is not the right thing to do when updating address. Just send AR-11 with proof of delivery and then can call on top if you wish. But actual written form is needed go update address properly.

    MyUSCIS seems to have some outage. Some people don't even see their cases temporarily. Give few days before trying things. Your docs may be "invisible" temporarily. If you only submitted case few days ago, there is no rush, case takes 14-17 months
  20. OldUser
    Valid point, I-751 can hold N-400... So yes, there's nothing to worry about if you only submitted application this December @BurgerSb. You have months of wait ahead
  21. OldUser
    Estimated times on MyProgress can be ignored. They are not accurate. On day of my oath, estimated time to decision was 3 weeks. @Rhema1 saw 11 months until decision on day of the oath. If you search Visa Journey, you will see many reports of this not being accurate. There is no exact science to estimating processing times. No free or paid tool can predict it accurately, because there are too many variables. Currently, we see I-130 taking anywhere between 12 and 17 months for most cases. So you can get approval tomorrow or in the next 3-4 months and there is no way of telling for sure.

    Hopefully, not just filled, but also filed. If you are seeking Advance Parole, and adjusting status based on family (marriage to US citizen, etc), the fee is $630 for paper form or $580 for online. How much did you pay for EAD (form I-765)?

    Gold plated god statue.

    Typically, yes. Spouses though (CR-1 / IR-1) are typically not affected. However, even with spousal visa, beneficiary may be put in super long / indefinite admin processing. But at least it's not a black & white outright ban.
  25. OldUser
    You do, especially if filing under 3 years and still have I-751 pending. If you file online, just submit marital evidence, it is low effort.
