Sorry you're going through divorce. In your case, applying under general provision of being LPR for 5 years makes more sense and is way safer. Applying now with divorce on file is a bad idea. Especially a bad idea with DV involved.

Your best option is to not naturalize under 3 year rule. Also, you need to convert I-751 petition from jointly filed to divorce waiver. Leaving everything as is and attempting naturalization based on marriage can cause issues now or later in life.

You'll be OK. For I-751 I always recommend: - File a week after you're in the 90 day window. One week doesn't make much difference in processing times that take 2-3 years - Use personal check and not credit card. No amount of points / rewards is enough to justify the stress of rejected petition. Good luck, you'll be fine!

I-751 can technically take 2-3 years to get approved. There's a reason why USCIS issues 48 month extension letters as oppose to 12, 18 or 24 months like they used to. Don't apply for naturalisation, this is a British or Aussie term. This country uses naturalization. If you never want to deal with USCIS again (outside of petitioning others), I highly recommend getting naturalized, especially with German laws allowing it now.

One thing you should know - you can remove the conditions on your own. Keep the temperature low, but also know your destiny doesn't depend on him. It's not wise saying it to his face, but you should not be worried too much about this.

Annulments are difficult to pull off, especially if you have solid evidence of sharing finances and other aspects of life plus it's been few years... He can try, but chance of success if low unless you confess voluntarily the marriage was for the purpose of immigration.

The alerts are usually delayed. Status updates are faster.

Of course it does, it's a new petition.

What do you mean by annulment? Annulment is the last thing you want. Annulment means marriage was never valid. If you get annulment, your GC will be in danger since it was approved on wrong premise (e.g. you never had a valid marriage).

If based on marriage, last 3 years. If under general provision, 5 years. Just to confirm, tax return trascripts from IRS website.

This is not an issue at all. Half of the time, notifications don't work / are late. Your process will be fine. If everything works, whatever email you put will receive updates. Don't stress over this, it's nothing.

I never heard of SS card being asked for. Marital evidence, tax transcripts, passports, docs issued by USCIS - yes those may be required. SS card - no.

Cannot tell about phone number, I filed AOS long time ago when phone number wasn't the requirement as far as I remember. I don't think your case would be rejected because of that. As to signatures the banker is right. I have joint accounts and wrote many checks from them. Unless there is AND, either one of the people can sign the check on their own.

Wait few more days, if they cashed check on Friday, it may take few days to show in your bank account.

He cannot revoke your GC, neither USCIS. Only immigration judge can do it. I hope you filed AR-11 as required within 10 days of moving. Keep evidence safe and make offline and digital copies. Make sure your passwords are strong and not known to your ex. I wouldn't interact directly with the spouse. If I was you I'd hire a divorce attorney and only communicate with soon to be ex through written communication ran by lawyer. Unless splitting millions of dollars, I'd simply try to divorce ASAP by giving him all or most what he wants, so he doesn't have any point to contest. Your ex put a lot off effort proving your marriage was bonafide. So unless they have anything compelling, your divorce waiver would be faster and easier to approve.

I'm really sorry about all the pain you went through. Do you have evidence of bonafide marriage? Are you safe? As @Boiler mentioned, divorce waiver is typically an easier route to take. Even with immigration put aside, you probably want to divorce and exit this toxic relationship.

I'm pretty sure he has to list all citizenships he has. I'd use the passport from "friendliest" country. For example, somebody who is born in Venezuela, has passports of Venezuela, Vanuatu and Spain should probably use Spanish passport. It's just an example.

With documentation being digitized and cost of hard drive storage getting lower every year, storing forever isn't a problem anymore. I'm not aware of USCIS / DOS policies saying they only store X number of years.

I'd probably list it once if it's the same username.

You're more likely going to show divorce decree. You may get asked about marriage if USCIS sees some red flags.

Yes you don't need to complete parts for official use only, that's for USCIS.

Why not just use birth certificate (if born in the US)? It doesn't expire. Or certificate of naturalization if became a citizen later in life.

She'll be filing DS-260 at some point. The correct information can be entered then.

This is not extraordinary. You'll be fine. Many times you cannot be approved on spot.

Not needed, right
