    I would argue with this advice. 1) There is no such form I-175. There is form for Removal of Conditions named I-751 2) I'd get to the US first and then file I-751. What's the expiry date on your green card? If your card is still valid you need to jump on the plane like now and head back to the US before it expires. Take the first available flight, even if it means leaving in the next 24 hrs. This is very time sensitive. And you must file I-751 as soon as you touch the ground in the US. Throw money at the problem and do it urgently now if you can, otherwise you're at risk of losing your status or being in limbo status which will cost you even more

    I see

    Somebody in attached thread got dinged for 2 months. OP was apart for 6 weeks, 1.5 months. I personally would be safe than sorry. If OP files after 3 years anniversary of being LPR, it appears they won't have this possible issue at all. It's all about waiting a bit longer.

    You can have many accounts but you only have one alien number, which you would use in N-400 form. You can always upload copy of I-751 receipt in additional evidence. Makes sense, thank you for clarifying.

    No, this doesn't make sense and can invalidate marriage in the eyes on USCIS

    However, OP had 6 weeks of not living together. Based on officer, this may be intepreted as break in marital union, thus not meeting conditions for naturalizing under 3 year rule. See the case attached above where somebody was denied.

    It is what it is, you can't hide it. It's important that you have evidence of spending time together and solid plan of how you'd live together once she finishes J-1

    All the information should be as of time you file forms, not as of future. So her current address is her current address, not where she'd live with you in the future. Same goes to household size. This depends on your taxes. Typically the size is you + any dependants you claim on tax forms + immigrant you're sponsoring

    Congrats! This is amazing, means they're aware of both pending cases

    I don't think you filed I-485 online. Even today, this is not available.
  11. OldUser
    You can try using account #1 or create account #3
  12. OldUser
    Good luck!

    Fair enough. Let's see what OP says. I just don't see how one can enter and become LPR, unless they were on immigrant visa. AOS takes time.
  14. OldUser
    From what OP posted, spousal visa was the route.
  15. OldUser
    I'd interpret rules strictly and apply for citizenship after 3 year anniversary of living together in the US. This typically means no 90 day early filing. Example of denied case

    Sorry about that experience! I only had hold ups due to pending I-751, but nothing else described
  17. OldUser
    Sounds like a plan! There's really no rush to update SSA, I did it after receiving passport. But needs to be done.
  18. OldUser
    Congrats!
  19. OldUser
    That's true, no walk ins in most places. I'd get passport first. This is what I did personally. Here is my experience updating status with SSA:

    Congrats! Remember to update status with SSA

    Oh man, I love the Keys. Been there few times. Such a lovely place. Jealous of you! Have fun

    Sorry @MAX_Q I made a mistake. 4 years and 1 day from that long trip would be some time in March 2026, not September 2026.
  23. OldUser
    At USCIS nobody cares about circumstances and reasons, they need her to meet the criteria to be approved. She'll meet this criteria 4 years and 1 day after returning to the US after long trip.
  24. OldUser
    There's no such requirement. The requirement is residing in the US.
  25. OldUser
    She can file under 5 year rule. There's 4 year and 1 day exception. Meaning after 4 years and 1 day after she returned from long trip, she could try naturalizing: "An applicant applying for naturalization under INA 316, which requires 5 years of continuous residence, must then wait at least 4 years and 1 day after returning to the United States (whenever 364 days or less of the absence remains within the statutory period), to have the requisite continuous residence to apply for naturalization.[21] The statutory period preceding the filing of the application is calculated from the date of filing."
