  1. Majority of civil surgeons in the US (I think that's what you mean by doctor) will want you to complete entire medical again. You cannot tell them otherwise, they're not going to sign off other doctor's paperwork and risk their license. Some may do only vaccination part as you want, but it's very rare. Here is where to find civil surgeons: https://www.uscis.gov/tools/find-a-civil-surgeon
  2. Very unlikely it's going to affect you at all. You'll only have a welcome leaflet from new president.
  3. This is normal. You can see some submitted evidence that got scanned.
  4. Depends on area and civil surgeon, but I'd think around $500 on average.
  5. Yes, you'll need another medical if you are missing some vaccinations. They can be administered during the exam. Without I-693, your I-485 will be rejected.
  6. Beggers are not choosers... Immigration is a privilege, not a right. We can complain as much as we want, but the reason this thread's participants recommend holding off WoM is because it has a high chance of being dismissed.
  7. I haven't heard of this lately. The study material is available online: https://www.uscis.gov/citizenship/find-study-materials-and-resources
  8. How do you know the interview was waived? If it's through chat with Emma / calling USCIS I'd still be prepared to go to interview. The only time you know for sure the interview is waived, is when you get GC approved. Before that - anything is possible
  9. Visas could be revoked in the past, and even when not revoked, DHS could tell CBP not to let a person in. Looks like it's about closing avenues for disputing such discretionary decision.
  10. You're not a preparer or enterpreter. Usually a lawyer and translator would complete these. You can leave these blank. It's normal to be filling forms together. Just make sure your significant othet understand everything you're writing and knows the facts for interview.
  11. Lawyers who work in immigration often mention this. And this is logical. Some countries are known to be a threat to US security, or higher on fraud. USCIS and other agencies working on background check have to dig deeper to ensure the individual is safe to be granted the ultimate immigration benefit - US citizenship, which is difficult to revoke. You can watch YouTube video of USCIS director herself talking about security and other things: Sadly, it is the reality. A Pakistani or Syrian national would probably have to wait longer for security checks as opposed to Italian and Danish. The latter are generally safer in the eyes of US immigration and their police / security cooperates much better with US providing information on individual.
  12. Most likely you're going to be OK, as long as marriage was legitimate. Of course, it IO found some fraud indicators, such as quick divorce after entering the US and getting GC, they have to dig deeper to see if it was a sham marriage. I would have brought a lawyer with me for this interview.. If fraud is found, USCIS can go as far as trying to take your GC away. Good luck and keep us posted.
  13. Nothing with USCIS is failsafe...
  14. Essentially, at best USCIS ignores the problems and denies it. At worst, they hide data and become more obscure. For example, when I filed I-751, I could look up processing timer per each individual service center and field office. Now when you go to https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/, you can only filter by "All service centers" and "All field offices". Essentially, the details are being hidden. I wonder if it's because of large differences. Some offices and service centers had 2+ year estimated time difference compared to others...
  15. I-94 can also work https://i94.cbp.dhs.gov/I94/
  16. This was extensively discussed here: The gist of it is... While USCIS allows early filing (90 day window) based on permanent residence requirement, the marital union requirement does not have the same exception. E.g. if you file early based on residence, but you aren't married for 3+ years living together, the case is denied.
  17. Primary residence cannot be used as an asset. All sorts of assets are routinely ignored by USCIS - stocks, cash, gold bars. A qualifying joint sponsor with good income is the safest path.
  18. This is applicable in OP's case because vaccinations were not completed on DS-3025. If they were completed, no I-693 would have been needed. Just a copy of DS-3025 would have sufficed. Note the language in quoted message: "If you are required to submit Form I-693, or a partial Form I-693 (such as the Vaccination Record)," K-1s with completed DS-3025 and all vaccinations are not required to submit I-693 All others adjusting status are typically required to submit I-693
  19. 90 day early window typically works for people who came on K-1 or were married living in the US for some time in different status before becoming a permanent resident. It is trickier for CR-1. Good luck and let us know how it goes! If you happen to file this month, welcome to the club:
  20. But he needs all vaccinations completed to adjust status. The medical is not completed without all vaccinations. Hence I-693 is needed. Without I-693 with all vaccines, his I-485 will get rejected.
  21. Doesn't matter in this case, you needed to physically live together as married couple for 3 years. Meaning you could not use early filing window to file, because you would be below 3 years of living together. Challenging it is pointless, USCIS followed the law. Just refile when both conditions are true: - She's been a resident for 3 years - She lived in marital union with US citizen for 3 years. And US citizen has been a citizen for all 3 years.
