    Have you consulted a lawyer on this matter?

    As you can see, stocks etc don't make the difference. Just find a qualifying joint sponsor.

    Do you want to risk it? Why not just cash it and get a fresh one or better use personal check?
  5. OldUser
    Yes, unless you want to get RFE. Treat your rejected packet as if USCIS never seen your case. If you miss some forms or evidence in second submission, your packet will get rejected or RFEd again.

    Yep, no need to ever burn bridges.

    He is meant to put physical addresses of where he stayed for long periods of time. If he officially studied and lived there, he should have put in on DS-260. There's no penalty for stating the truth, there's no need to match the answers to address on DL he should have updated... What is he going to say if during interview officer would ask: "Your school was 2.5 hrs away, did you commute every day while studying"? Just answer questions directly and literally. Not to fit some "official" versions of truth.

    And did it work after that?

    Here's example of a person who got 2 SSN due to checking box on DS-260 and applying in person: What @M plus D described is possible. I could find some links, I'm sure I've seen reports of this before. You can't deny people get robbed in the streets even if you or your close ones never personally were. Same here. It happens to small percentage of people. Only you can choose your risk tolerance level. You asked about the preferences, and @M plus D gave you their preference. Your preference may be to apply on I-485 form and it's OK too.

    @M plus D gave you some good reasons to prefer getting SSN yourself at SSA. There's always margin for error and delays due to multiple agencies working on request (USCIS and SSA). The ultimate choice is yours. If you applies for EAD you might as well apply for SSN through forms. There's pros and cons to each approach. There is no right or wrong.
  11. OldUser
    This is a possibility. I'd either request on forms and wait it out or This is pretty optimistic. Letters can take 4-6 weeks to be received including GC.
  12. OldUser
    This is true This is also true

    Nice observation of yet one more pain point with different names on different docs. IMHO it's worth changing name at N-400 stage for this and many more reasons.
  14. OldUser
    It's possible to self-translate, and it's widely accepted. I would personally use a neutral third party such as online translation service to translate docs though, to rule out any conflict of interest. I cannot recommend online service as it may be a violation of ToS. However, I used a service and paid about $30 to translate by Birth Certificate. It was totally worth it as they knew how to do it professionally and went over all stamps and other notes on it.

    Thank you for this detailed response and quoting sources.

    The quick processing was due to upcoming elections. Now that we're almost there, I can predict we'll go back to good old slow processing if we aren't there already.

    You could have filed taxes jointly getting bigger tax break on your spouse's income. And you would have had tax return to submit for N-400 for that year.
  18. OldUser
    Which history? I had some updates that came on Saturday, others during weekdays.
  19. OldUser
    Yes you can and you're required to file I-751.
  20. OldUser
    Yes two separate beneficiaries need their own set of forms filed, including I-864
  21. OldUser
    You're 99.999% safe then.

    If you met income requirements in 2022 and 2021 it won't hurt to add. RFEs delay cases by months. Good luck!
  23. OldUser
    Didn't it also mention 3 years further in instructions? With USCIS, it's always best to go beyond required minimal threshold of evidence.
  24. OldUser
    I hope it's tax return transcript? What about previous years, e.g 2022, 2021?
  25. OldUser
    I see, got confused over this. It's I-797
