If you filed online, you filed and will be subject to current rules, not future rules starting October 20.

A million flies can't be wrong Jokes aside, it's a great idea actually.

Maybe never? That's a possibility

I'd still write to them. Something in writing is better than just verbal info. I don't think either is legally binding, but at least there is proof. Asking for person's name / number is a good idea when asking over the phone.

Both?

Is the date on birth on passport wrong? What took you so long to notice? I'd apply for new passport today. Make sure they use correct date of birth as stated on birth certificate. I don't buy the argument it cannot be changed. Why would that be? If info is wrong, new passport based on birth certificate should be issued. Discrepancies like this can lead to severe issues with US immigration. Just get it fixed in India - it will be cheaper and less stressful than fixing later. P.S. what if you lost your passport? What date of birth would they use in new passport? I'm sure it would be correct one, as on birth certificate.

I see no issue for naturalization or removal of conditions. Travel is hard to say whether it's safe to use or USCIS flagged it as invalid / lost

Is the family member inside or outside the US?

Filing after anniversary in many cases is a safer option that filing in 90 day early filing window, especially those who came on IR-1 / CR-1 visa. Good luck!

UK citizenship is a lot better for living outside the UK vs US for living outside the US. If I lived outside the US, I'd prefer UK citizenship

Opening an account could be done online in many cases. If he already opened account with a particular bank, they'll be happy to open joint a lot easier now that he is known to them. Bonus food for thought... One of you suddenly dies tomorrow. Wouldn't be nice to allow the other spouse access funds quickly to cover expenses? Especially with children involved. My advice is to do the most, not the least you can. Don't delay paperwork, send it out, it's a priority. But set up joint things in the background. USCIS will expect a lot more proof of comingling life at I-751 and N-400 stages. Good luck!

Well, if he set up his own account, why couldn't he open a joint account? You're not required to merge all funds per se, but for many it makes sense combining at least some funds for recurring costs such as rent, utility bills, car loans. From outsider's view (like USCIS adjudicator) it may look like one of you or both of you have trust issues in relationship manifesting in unwillingness to share finances. Like one YouTube lawyer said, sending money back and forth from individual accounts looks like roommates sharing bills? How are you planning to receive tax refund, for example, who will receive it? If you have a joint account, it just goes there. I'm not trying to accuse you of anything, but laying out thinking an officer with old school thinking may have. Absolutely print and add any other evidence of comingling life lile health or car insurance. Finance is a big piece of puzzle though and you may need to explain your arrangement in rational way to officer

Some VJ reported being interviewed formally or semi-formally for spouse's N-400. Some sat through spouse's N-400. It's not common, but happens

Congrats! Thank you for the detailed report. I think the scrutiny was natural - switching from traditional marriage to same sex marriage. Adjustment right outside the 90 day window (which isn't a thing) but can make it look as if you waited deliberately to file soon after 90 days. Either way, I-130 approval is big. Celebrate it!

Add Metro to this list?

But it won't change the answers? 22A still be "Yes" meaning he'll have to explain why didn't register even if he files at 31

Fear mongering. Unlawful and probably unconsitutional. Ain't going to happen any time soon. This would not benefit the US and I haven't heard any proposals. US citizens must report (and many times pay) taxes on world wide income. This would cut off this tax revenue for the US, as many would choose to renounce their citizenship if they couldn't get a passport

But many aren't happy even with current fees, let alone higher potential fees. There is no ideal solution: 1) Keep everything as is - backlogs 2) Get supplemental / full funding from Congress - USCIS will be affected more by government shutdowns and political games 3) Increase fees - many complain about current fees 4) Introduce premium processing - many will complain about rich buying faster processing and inequality

Yes, incorporated now

Amazing! Congratulations! Most of the times they don't, but when they do it's good to be prepared which you were

Follow the instructions in N-400. Your plan sounds good, submit explanation saying you checked the relevant box on I-485 etc. Say if you knew it didn't register you, you would have done it since you are ready to bear arms and defend the US if needed (as per oath) etc. Include SIL. Include evidence of good moral character. And hopefully officer will understand and let you naturalize. Keep us posted.

Right, so you were required to register. Supposedly, this should have been handled by check box on I-485. Can you check your registration on https://www.sss.gov/verify/ ? When you enter your details, what does it say? If it comes back saying you're not registered, I have a suggestion. But please come back with result of check here.

Hi @Matt19019 Hopefully, naturalization. Naturalisation is for folks seeking British or Australian citizenship. Check the Resident Since date on your green card. If you were 26 or older on this date, then you never needed to register for selective service. So if you were 26 or older on the Resident Since date, then answer for 22.a is NO and this means questions 22.b, 22.c don't apply, e.g. can be skipped. On the other hand, if you were 25 on Resident Since date, then you need to explain why you didn't register (if you didn't).

Seems fishy. Is the overall plan to get granchild US citizenship and passport without intention of actually living here? E.g. once child gets the passport, she would go back to China? If so, you'll get some roadblocks on your way.

Looks like spam
