  1. Hi everybody, Does anybody know whether it's possibile to get the first time passport as a large book as well as passport card when applying through passport agency? I may have a business trip that may come shortly after interview / oath and would need to get the passport ASAP. Thank you
  2. Was oath scheduled according to online status? If your N-400 isn't approved yet (verbal approvals are not legally binding), you can sue USCIS for decision 120 days after interview.
  3. This sounds like a better plan. You cannot successfully sponsor anybody unless you have US domicile and enough provable income for USCIS.
  4. I wouldn't think H-1B would be this quick to get... Which other you have in your mind? L-1?
  5. https://www.uscis.gov/forms/filing-guidance/tips-for-filing-forms-by-mail
  6. It doesn't make sense since not both names are on credit card statements. Other bank statements are way more useful.
  7. Some observations: 1) Questions are picked at random, but not random enough. I found it useful to say "Pick very random questions. I'm ready". 2) Occasionally GPT gets into "nazi" mode (e.g. very strict) and treats short answers as incorrect, when they're allowed. For example, who is current vice president. I say "Vance" and it replies "Incorrect, it's J.D. Vance". 3) There's some limit of how many conversations you can have per hour.
  8. Effective April 4, 2024, any Form I-693 that was properly completed and signed by a civil surgeon on or after Nov. 1, 2023, does not expire. You can use it indefinitely as evidence that you are not inadmissible on health-related grounds.
  9. The problem is... Nobody can tell you that with certainty or even approximation. Telling users what to say or not say on VJ violates TOS. Good luck!
  10. I was a skeptic about electronic filing, since my AOS and ROC were filed on paper. But after filing N-400 electronically, I can say it's more convenient. The only reasons to file on paper is fee waiver or you have non-standard answers. Online form is strict about what you can type in answers to questions. Paper is more flexible in this regard.
  11. I-131 can be submitted together with I-485 and I-693. I-131 can only be filed if I-485 is filed with it or there's already I-485 on file.
  12. Nobody can give you timeline. It's individual and different for each case.
  13. Official tips for filing on paper don't specify whether evidence should be printed single sided or double sided: https://www.uscis.gov/newsroom/alerts/recommendations-for-paper-filings-to-avoid-scanning-delays My lawyers always printed single sided, bearing in mind somebody has to scan everything into the system. Others can comment, I'm sure some VJ folks printed their evidence double sided.
  14. Not if your spouse a US citizen. This will be forgiven if you disclose the overstay. However, case may always be denied for other reasons. Anybody out of status can be be deported. However, if you have pending I-130, I-485 and documentation of this, the deportation is unlikely.
  15. What is I-1864? Yes, bringing up to date information and current editions of forms is the key to success.
  16. Temporary work visa is inconsistent with your immigrant intent. Your I-130 is pending because you're planning to live in the US.
  17. As harsh as it may sound, but there are solid universities in Canada. AP is pretty expected based on country of your origin, sadly. Good luck!
  18. This is normal. It can take 4-8 weeks to get receipt.
  19. They should. You need some proof of status. Extension letter alone doesn't prove you have a legal status in the US.
  20. The MyProgress tracker is an inaccurate unreliable software. It can show and disappear from website and it's nothing to do with your case. 1) When did you file? 2) How did you file (paper or electronic)? 3) What is your local field office? Do you live close to Kansas City, MO? NBC is irrelevant
  21. I'm very confused by this question. What do you mean by filed in NBC? For N-400, you file either by paper or online. The processing time depends on local field office, which typically is a closest big city, such as New York, NY.
  22. A website that pulls public data from USCIS. Anybody can check any case status here without logging in... https://egov.uscis.gov/
