    What's the living arrangement? Do you have joint lease? Do you both contribute and use money from joint account? Can he add you to his health insurance (since it's risky to be uninsured in the US and it's good evidence)?

    Single is not an option when you're married. Also, it's smaller tax break when filing as single, not sure why you want to shoot yourself in the leg immigration and tax wise.

    Do you want to test your luck? I didn't have any prior issues with law and still had a lawyer filing AOS and present at my interview.
  4. OldUser
    Then submitting more shouldn't be an issue? You're not printing anything
  5. OldUser
    You're uploading digitally, right? Or you're filing on paper?

    N-400 cannot be approved without I-751 approval. It's not guaranteed, but usually N-400 makes USCIS decide both cases together
  7. OldUser
    Depends on your comfort level. There's been cases when officer said "We don't have your I-751 file" or "We don't have enough evidence", e.g sometimes USCIS loses evidence. If you bring everything, you'll be bulletproof. At the same time, you may be never asked for much evidence going back.

    Then everything proving bonafide marriage, such as: - Tax return transcripts showing you filed taxes jointly - Joint lease(s) and or mortgage statements - Utility bills in both names - Joint bank account statements - Copies of IDs / DLs showing same address - Birth certificates of any children born in this marriage - Flight and hotel reservations showing both names - Receipts for big purchases showing both names - Car and/or health insurance policies showing both names - Wills listing spouses - Printouts of retirement plans / brokerage accounts showing spouse is listed as beneficiary - Affidavits from friends and family - Joint memberships - Many more

    Are you filing under 3 year rule (marriage to US citizen) or under 5 year rule (general provision)?

    Here's thread for February 2025 filers :

    Check the case status in electronic system
  12. OldUser
    Old cases got migrated to electronic system with change to case numbers. You now need a new case number to check status. The petitioner should have received mail telling about this change. Was address updated with USCIS every time petitioner moved?

    Be ready for combo. Take US citizen spouse with you.

    Thanks, as long as you're granted citizenship correctly, no issue applying for passport with current martial status. It would be wrong to say to DOS you're married when you're divorced. Good luck!
  15. OldUser
    Yes.
  16. OldUser
    You cannot lie to DOS. So what happened in the interview? Was IO aware you're in divorce proceedings?

    * 15K extra I meant
  18. OldUser
    The standard deduction for MFS is $14,600. The standard deduction for MFJ is $29,200. So he'd not be paying taxes on about $15K if filing jointly.
  19. OldUser
    Non issue
  20. OldUser
    Seems like you got answer already?
  21. OldUser
    Technically, yes, CBP can search LPR and US citizen's phones and take them into interrogation room too. Should not be worried, unless had overstay in the past, criminal history or association with questionable organizations. LPRs who spend too much time outside the US may be pressured into surrendering their GC (I-407)
  22. OldUser
    Do you want to be picked up by ICE and detained, then forcefully removed from the US? It's a possibility for anybody hanging out in the US without status. As everybody said, leave the States ASAP and divorce in the UK. It won't be any more complicated. Assuming you're a UK citizen, you'll be going through divorce on your soil with all rights and protections and friends / family support.

    For 3 year rule though, don't forget about 3 years of marital union required.
  24. OldUser
    You're in different situation though, not a regular 5 year rule filer
