The new 2025 test has a bit morr questions and different pass criteria

Awesome! I hope she is applying for large passport book and updating status with SSA?

You can add copy of I-751 receipt and letter asking for combo in Additional Evidence as you file

Can you share a screenshot? People do file N-400 based on marriage online. Just answer few questions on wizard, there will be a question about being married to US citizen. You can click around to try various answers, just do not file the form.

It would have been a lot cleaner if you applied on 5 year anniversary of returning. They you wouldn't even have to list those old or foreign addresses in N-400 form. But I understand your GC is expiring, so it makes sense why you'd want to apply. Yes, you have to list that foreign address I guess. If trip or residence at address began outside the statutory window, but ended within statutory window, you should list the start outside the window.

This is not the case. If married to another USC for 3+ years, can still apply based on marriage to US citizen. But if eligible for general provision, it is not a brainer and should be preferred.

Congrats

Please remember to update SSA with your citizenship status if it is not automatically updated. I also recommend getting large passport book (free upgrade). Good luck!

This sounds about right, attorneys want to hande entire case typically. Keep us posted!

Writ of Mandamus, lawsuit against USCIS

Time for WoM?

Not sure I agree with you I-9 instructions say: "Employees may present one selection from List A or a combination of one selection from List B and one selection from List C." List B - DL List C - SS card Those to be presented as List B + List C if don't want to show list A document (GC). I am advocating for List B + List C to avoid showing GC which causes headache. My reply was to your suggestion to not bother with removing conditions on SS card until becoming a citizen which I disagree with. I am not talking about providing other list C docs such as Native American Tribal Travel document because it does not apply to most people I'm addressing this message to (GC holders)

Worth a try, thank you!

There is no such exception, they do not give exceptions for COVID that I know of

One gotcha is SSA office locator does not always show direct office phone number, and instead shows national number for SSA which is not helpful at all. It took me a physical visit to office, where they rejected to see me and wrote real phone # on paper so I could call and schedule appointment. It was a pain

For anybody employed, I highly recommend removing restrictions on SS card when getting GC. This eliminates any potential paranoia from HRs who are obsessed with GC expiration dates and worry too much when conditional GC expires. I just always showed unrestricted SS card and DL for I-9 and never GC to avoid this issue

Wait, how is I-765 related to I-751? Green card holders do not need EAD (I-765)

Typically not an issue, unless marriage was suspiciously shortlived. Immigration officer can ask about circumstances of that divorce, sure. Make sure all or your divorce and marriage certificates with you.

When did she resume her residency? Most likely she will get denied if she broke residency within 5 years prior to filing. There are no special exceptions for COVID

All the best news articles start with this line 😅

Agreed, can't blame the kid, I just kept browsing VJ

I guess I'll pause here 😅 Any thoughts?

1. Yes 2. Normal

Paper check payments are no longer accepted by USCIS! You are right, I-130A is not needed for child
