    Agreed, it's possible the new administration will put more effort in reducing backlog of asylum cases and hopefully AOS. I-751s, N-400s will likely get lower priorities.
  2. OldUser
    I-751s can take 3-4 years. There's a reason why 48 month extension letters are given by USCIS. Have you considered filing for naturalization?
  3. OldUser
    When my I-751 was processed, I monitored other cases around mine. Some of them sat without status update for 18 months or so, then started rapidly changing including biometrics reused. Did you move since filing I-751?
  4. OldUser
    I'd say "No" is correct answer. You're not paying child support. You can clarify during interview if asked, as you guaranteed to have it for N-400.
  5. OldUser
    The estimates are largely inaccurate. Some people naturalized while estimate showed 7 months on day of oath. Also, don't forget election is over. Fast processing was associated with it. Now it's behind and priorities may change for USCIS.

    If you qualify based on 3 years of marriage and being resident since 03/30/2021, then you should be file applying now. Do you still have your original I-485 approval notice with correct approval date?
  7. OldUser
    Has your I-751 been decided yet? I assume you're applying under general provision (5 year rule)? If so, you don't need to file all marriage evidence you submitted with I-751.

    Was resident since also wrong on 2 year conditional GC? Or just on new card? Do you have I-485 approval notice to back up your Resident Since date? Good luck.

    Yes, the biggest downside is transaction being marked as fradulent when paying with credit card. This is pretty common, it's not a joke.
  10. OldUser
    I highly recommend using personal check for paying USCIS fees, as banks block transactions on credit cards as fradulent a lot of the times. Overall good evidence. If you had trips, you can submit copies of airline reservations showing both names etc. Good luck!

    I never carried mine other then having it with me when boarding the plane from and to the US. However, I don't live next to the border and never had authorities asking for my immigration documents outside of USCIS / CBP.
  12. OldUser
    I-131 depends whether immigrant has old sick parents or other reasons to travel back home during AOS process. I wouldn't skip it if I could pay the fee.
  13. OldUser
    But it would double if not more the fees to go through adjustment of status in comparison to counsular processing. Plus she couldn't have the intent to stay in the US as she was coming in to the US.

    1) Why use RapidVisa? They're not lawyers and not responsible for your case. Either study everything yourself and file on your own or hire a real lawyer. 2) You need a strong case, not a weak one. This requires opening joint accounts etc to show bonafide marriage. Unless you want to get RFE / NOID / stokes interview, file a strong case from the start.
  15. OldUser
    Bonafide. Yes, evidence can be predating your final divorce date. Question is: what's the hurry and how long have you known your fiancé? Why K-1 and not CR-1 after longer relationship?
  16. OldUser
    With USCIS, when in doubt, it's best to go to appointment / respond to RFE etc whatever the initial ask was.
  17. OldUser
    Cogratulations!

    This is normal. Prior to election cycle N-400s used to take over a year.
  19. OldUser
    If you read the forum, estimates are way off. I wouldn't take them too seriously.
  20. OldUser
    Pardon me, G-1145
  21. OldUser
    There's only one form (OK, optional I-1145) and evidence. Treat it as one big packet. Simply print cover letter, followed by table of contents, followed by form and evidence. Put everything with personal check on top in a box.
  22. OldUser
    You may have issues interviewing not being on US soil, not having address. E.g. you won't be taken seriously
  23. OldUser
    No, interviewing can take a while especially with jobs requiring education and qualification. Apply for SSN ASAP after arrival (like next day). In 2-4 weeks you should receive the SS card. At that time you'll be still in search or going through interview process most likely. Your SSN is only needed when you accepted offer and come to office on day 1 of your empooyment.

    Follow up question: do you comingle finances? And how are you planning paying taxes in April?
  25. OldUser
    Typically bank statements and leases "paint" the picture of your living arrengements. Yes, you may get asked about more proof of living together at some point.
