  1. You can say "No". I said "Yes" and nothing came out of it. The mechanism for updating SSA status is broken. You have to visit SSA to do it yourself after becoming a citizen. It's not about SS card without restrictions, I also had unrestricted card. It's more about SSA updating their records marking you as a US citizen after you naturalize. Here's the whole story and further explanation:
  2. Did you live separately at any time in the last 3 years? Marital union is requirement that gets interpreted very strictly by some adjudicators. If you want to have 0 risk, just wait full 3 years of living in the US before filing N-400. Good luck!
  3. Yes. CBP can conclude you never started residing in the US without SSN and GC and give you NTA.
  4. You can assume. But don't be dissapointed if it takes longer. Usually you don't even receive letter with receipt within 3 weeks of filing. More realistic timeframe is 2-3 months until biometrics appointment.
  5. Sure, some of that marriage evidence from overseas can't hurt. Most of evidence should be since you moved here though.
  6. ~ Thread wad moved to What Visa Do I Need ~
  7. Pretty normal for I-751. My I-751 took 20.5 months. @Crazy Cat's wife's case took 44 months or so. N-400 should help unblocking it. Good luck!
  8. ~ Thread moved to K-3 progress subforum as it better fits the discussion ~
  9. Yes, you're grandfathered into old test.
  10. I mean, the other day I saw somebody's I-751 approved within 1 months of submitting. A regular user, not in military etc. Majority of folks will wait for few years. What helped the user get approved this fast? Was it the moon phase? That's how I feel about I-129F speeding up I-130.
  11. From N-400 instructions: Required Evidence - Reduced Fee 1. A copy of each household member’s most recent Federal tax return; 2. If the household member did not file a Federal tax return, or if the tax return does not properly reflect his or her current income, submit copies of consecutive pay statements (stubs) for a minimum of the past month, a recent Form W-2, Form SSA-1099, or employer statements on business stationery showing salary or wages paid; or 3. If you are a student and not living with your mother or father or are not claimed as a dependent on your mother or father’s Federal tax return, do not include your mother’s or father’s incomes. You should only provide proof of your income or documentation that shows you are not required to file a Federal or state tax return, such as proof that you are a full-time student as supporting documentation.
  12. Photos proving relationship are better printed on normal paper (letter size or A4) and annotated with date, location, occasion and names names, IMHO.
  13. They do mention them in instructions under Good Moral Character. They do say it's not applicable in every case. To me it was a very low effort to upload these transcripts, so I did it
  14. Any estimates in MyProgress?)))
  15. Somehow I thought you were a citizen already! I submitted 5 years of tax transcripts in addition to marriage cert and copy of GC. Lawyer said it was unnecessary at initial submission, but I insisted. There were no questions about taxes during interview
  16. But it's not full stop of processing, which is a positive thing
