  1. Congratulations!!! So, roughly 2 years and 3 months?
  2. Congratulations! You are almost there, I can almost guarantee it's a matter of few days or weeks until you get the oath appointment. Thank you for detailed report. Once you become a citizen, I highly recommend getting a large passport book (price is the same as regular) and updating status with SSA. Keep us posted!
  3. I guess you are applying online? Why only 3 months of evidence? It's easy to upload a lot more. I've seen people submitting: - Evidence from star of marriage OR - Evidence since I-751 was filed (if you had it) I would have submitted from start of marriage if I was applying under 3 year rule.
  4. Not really. If you guys separated, he is no longer eligible to naturalize under 3 year rule, as it requires living in marital union until the date of oath. Do not wait, live your life. Waiting would be immigration fraud. Nobody should stay married to get immigration benefit. Not declined, but denied with 99% certainty. Divorce, live your life. Husband should withdraw his N-400 today, he is not eligible. No explanation for withdrawal needed, just a letter saying he wants to withdraw whatever case # is and whatever alien # is. He is safe as he removed his conditions already. Then he reapplies when reaches 5 years of being LPR. He may be asked about marriage etc in the future but it should not be a problem unless USCIS suspect fraud. Everything else is calling for a trouble. Good luck!
  5. I feel like discussion deviated from original question. Unless you filed IRS tax return saying you were a non-resident when you had GC, it's fine. And if your income was $8000 you were not required to filed taxes as far as I know. Just have proof of that for your interview IF you get asked.
  6. I hope you have copies of everything your attorney submitted. If not, ask for them today. Attorneys die, close firms, lose licenses etc.
  7. Should have asked them to refund you or refile for free if it was their oversight. You can probably fire them if unhappy. You can send another email asking for update with a reasonable deadline of 2 weeks, and if not, warn them you will file a bar complaint.
  8. Interview is a chance to make any corrections and provide any clarifications if necessary. Just because interview is scheduled doesn't mean automatic approval or everything is fine. Not related to your case at all, but people get denied after interview. It's just to highlight the fact not everything gets flagged before the interview. You will be fine either way. Some don't provide any tax transcripts and get approved.
  9. I cannot offer you advice, but can I just express my respect for being so thoughtful and loving to your wife?
  10. No, but even if it did, would you rather be denied or get a delay?
  11. Bring it but don't volunteer it unless asked. She may never be asked for it. You can still upload it too.
  12. My prior advice still in effect
  13. I think this discussion is pretty relevant given OP's child is over 22 and they are seeking next steps? I won't comment any more without additional input from OP , but I think this case is not DIY
  14. I'm not a lawyer, but if they met conditions then they are a citizen regardless of whether CRBA was filed. It's important, because if such citizen tries to get visit visa etc they technically should be denied. Note that unlike naturalization of an adult, these folks don't have to take any steps to become citizens. It's done by operation of law automatically if conditions are met. Getting documentation and proof of that is a different matter and another question.
  15. My understansing is, citizenship is acquired at time of birth, by operation of law if child meets all criteria. CRBA is to get proof of citizenship and documentation of it. Similar to a homeless guy living under bridge. He may not have an ID or docs, but is a US citizen if was born on US soil.
  16. Ah, good catch! So what happens to citizens like this? Do they essentially get stuck in limbo? E.g. citizen without proof.
  17. I think you confused them a lot. Question 61.a and 61.b should only be completed if beneficiary is in the US. It says it clearly right before the question on form. Hence, they looked up your address and arranged the interview. I would write a letter to USCIS explaining the mistake you made. I'd also attend interview and explain the same in person. The last thing you want is I-130 getting denied due to no show. Either way, this mistake probably going to lead to case delay.
  18. Congrats! I always advise taking evidence to interview. You just never know...
  19. Are you getting invited to a USCIS field office in the US? Did you fill I-130 incorrectly saying beneficiary is in the US?
  20. What did you say in taxes in 2017? Did you say you were a non resident?
  21. @Trter where is hometown? Are you saying, in 2017 you filed a tax return with IRS saying you are non-resident? Did you have green card back then?
  22. But we don't know what ex status is or her kids and whether they have any upcoming interviews where they can be asked about living situation. We don't know what all paper trace ex and her kids are leaving by residing at OP's husband house. And if he tries using this address at any point in process, it can be flagged. With great level of certainty fraud department at USCIS incorporates AI to some degree, allowing searching and analyzing thousands of cases and any matching data - addresses, names, birth etc etc. At the end of the day, USCIS has ability to see sealed / expunged charges, involve FBI in background checks and many more. I wouldn't underestimate their capability to gather information. Any person's phone (OP, husband) can be searched by CBP too - checking any messages when entering the US. I wouldn't leave any chance for this to screw up OP's immigration.
  23. @KandV1226 please clarify, does sister live in same house your husband owns or it's a different house? And whether ex would be living with you guys or not?
