  1. I don't have a pending I-751. My I-751 was approved when I applied for N-400. It's always best to give more notice to USCIS. I'd include it when you file
  2. Can you not file $0 tax returns? A statement would suffice. You didn't work, but sometimes there are other sources of income - stocks, renting out house etc. You didn't have any of this income?
  3. You cannot use it for I-864 anyways Congratulations, it's not easy to get one!
  4. I have a very straightfoward case, but I involved attorney. They're also coming with me to the interview. Why? 1) I can afford it 2) This is America 3) Too many things happening lately in immigration Could I complete N-400 form myself? Absolutely, it would have been easier than answering lawyer's questionnaire. However, I see lawyer as somebody playing a bigger role than just form filler / preparer.
  5. Editing and redacting is what's typically produces mixed results. If bank itself produces statements with account number partially masked, that's OK. Alterations to doc can raise suspicion, whether these docs showing real data or were constructed too...
  6. Concur with @Edward and Jaycel Do not redact anything sensitive. USCIS is a government agency. You're dealing with government which in some instances knows more about yourself than you do. All USCIS data is well protected.
  7. So that's all you need to prove you updated address on time. This is not an issue.
  8. Certified translation is all that need. Certification is a sworn statement from translator. Apostile is not required.
  9. Combo I-751 and N-400 can slow things down for sure. But if OP's I-751 is already approved, then it's not much different to regular N-400 case, unless there's name change?
  10. Do you still have email and details of what you submitted? If yes, this is all you need.
  11. Thank you, I think you may be right on this one. With my old petitions, I cook look up neighbor cases by guessing numbers. Not with online ones. I thought this tracker had some other way of pulling data. Doesn't appear like it has the online cases. I'll probably stop posting this stats as they're incomplete. I guess the website I used is still useful for paper only petitions such as I-751 and I-485. But may not be as useful for N-400.
  12. If this is affidavit it's not worth much from somebody living overseas. You need affidavit from people who see you often and live close to you, at least same city. Think: neighbors, colleagues, property manager, close friends. Your relatives living far away and writing affidavit isn't going to help much. They probably see you once a year or so, that's not valuable enough.
  13. If you're no longer married, you have to wait 5 years from Resident Since date to apply for N-400.
  14. Where did you see this stats with 70k? This is N-400 IOE-LB cases, from my understanding both paper and electronic.
  15. Why is that? If you submit partial docs, expect an RFE. Submit all pages even if it's 100. You can spend few bucks to print it, don't jeopardize petition because you're trying to save money.
  16. Either is fine as long as you're not close to minimum physical presence in the last 3 or 5 years
  17. You have to live in your jurisdiction for 90+ days. Even though not legally required, I wouldn't apply for US citizenship immiediately after a long trip (say 5 months). Just to be on safe side. At the same time, if you were away for few weeks, no problem applying immediately upon return.
  18. There is a chance you'd have to explain all the ties to your home. It doesn't look like much holding you there. You may get denied entry. Just read @SalishSea reply. If CBP asks how long you're coming for and you say "5-6" months, the whole thing can unravel. You cannot lie to them either, saying you're coming for 2 weeks but in fact staying for 6 months, this would complicate or make impossible your future immigraton history in the US. Good luck!
  19. December 2024 filers stats as of 03/16/2025 @ 1:51 AM ET: Approved: 1727 Denied: 18 Fingerprints Scheduled: 313 Interview Cancelled: 152 Interview Scheduled: 9844 Pending: 4 Processing: 14153 Received: 14 ResponseToRFE: 30 RFE: 232 Terminated: 6 Withdrawal: 38 OathCeremonyNotice: 1077 OathCeremonyScheduled: 918 OathCeremonyReady: 2 OathCeremonyCancelled:8 Note OathCeremonyCancelled:8, this is new.
  20. Everything is possible with USCIS. Some green cards are approved within 2 months of filing. But blazing fast approvals are not commonplace.
  21. 36 months extension is old news. There's 48 months extension since some time in 2023. In fact, everybody who have pending case should have received 48 months extension automatically. I received my 48 months extension after 24 months in 2023. If you haven't received it, it's a bit worrying. Did you move to new address? There's danger USCIS sent you letters and you missed them. Request 48 months extension here: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/ndn
