  1. At the same time, whether @kenyy10 files for annulment or not, GC is in danger. I'd think 100 times before proceeding with N-400 in the future. I'd even think now whether to continue keeping GC. If USCIS catches up to this situation, they can rescind @kenyy10 LPR status...
  2. Thanks for sharing. I guess my answer remains the same no matter how many threads OP starts 😅
  3. I'd file N-600 to solve this once and for all. So the kids won't face same questions 30 years later (or whenever it may come up again)
  4. 1) Who told you this? 2) How old are kids? 3) What's the basis for kid's US citizenship?
  5. You gave very little information. The laws are different in each state thus the outcomes...
  6. Yes, I used an online service for translating docs for my AOS.
  7. The next step - get driver's license / ID in the state you now live.
  8. That's the safest approach. I think we've seen somebody denied based on 3 months residency clause recently. From what I recall they went through I-290B and got N-400 re-opened and approved. But why even give USCIS an opportunity to deny?
  9. She has to be on green card to become a citizen when her parent becomes a citizen
  10. Cannot say that if he was born outside the US.
  11. 9 years and 6 months the earliest 😃
  12. 5 years rule is easier, true. But then you need to ask yourself what happens to USCIS if administration changes after presidential elections. There's still a possibility of becoming a citizen before any potential negative changes come into play.
  13. It is complex. You'd need to make sure you do everything legally which may include getting consent from her father and some paperwork. Family lawyer may help with this. I'd bring the subject as you discuss the divorce process with family lawyer.
  14. I don't believe cheating is a qualifying reason for VAWA. As to abuse, OP would have to describe something substantial.
  15. Divorce the sponsor. Proceeding with I-485 is not an option as marriage is not bonafide. USCIS may even use your wife's cheating against you. Your daughter can sponsor your for GC once she's 21. Until then you're out of status and need other avenues to remain in the US legally.
  16. That's an awesome reason to celebrate if OP cannot make it to oath ceremony.
  17. First of all, some field offices don't allow visitors. Does your field office allow you to be present at oath? Secondly, I know naturalizing is a big deal. At the same time, I know a friend who naturalized while his wife was at work. Few hours later he flew out on a business trip to the other coast. I don't think either of them missed much...
  18. As one lawyer says, N-400 is the last chance USCIS has to deport somebody, so sometimes they put a lot of effort reviewing entire immigration history before approving petition. I'm positive you'll hear good news soon!
  19. Yes, people have it all the time. Nothing to worry about. Good that you had additional evidence with you. I bet he anticipated you being caught by surprise, but you were well prepared. Most likely, he either cannot approve the case himself (not enough experience) or it's to do with country of origin (unfortunately, USCIS has elevated bar for certain applicants). You'll probably hear from them in the next few weeks or month. If not, you can sue for decision after 120 days since the interview. Congratulations, you're almost there!
  20. I-765 depends on pending I-485. You cannot get it without AOS pending. Fiance can continue working on E2. Once I-485 is filed, I-765 can be filed together with it.
  21. To me it wasn't clear from the post whether OP's mother was a US citizen at the time OP was born. Maybe I miss something, but OP may have been born to a foreign mother. Later in life father got employment based GC and naturalized... @JeanAb can you help understanding your mother status when you were born?
  22. That's what I also thought, but I'm not an expert in this area.
  23. It doesn't seem you're a US citizen. You needed to live with your father in his full custody at the time he naturalized... Seems like you're an LPR and need to file N-400.
  24. How do you expect to get a passport if you don't have enough proof you're a US citizen for N-600? Even if you get passport now with some luck, you may face same or harder pushback in the future when you try to renew passport. You need to look into root problem, maybe hire a lawyer to help etc.
