  1. I didn't say you have it, I said you need to have it approved. But you can file N-400 while I-751 is pending, as long as you're eligible. You cannot skip I-751 and I don't understand your statement: You don't have choice, you always need to pay both fees (I-751 and N-400) if you were given conditional green card.
  2. What do you mean it was for nothing? You cannot naturalize without approved I-751 which requires payment. You have to pay I-751 fees no matter when you decide to naturalize and pay N-400 fees.
  3. @hlynnf23 I wouldn't wait for joint bills to file I-751. File it as soon as you're ready and 90 day window opens.
  4. That's OK. Can you add each other on utility bills meanwhile? It may become relevant if you receive RFE or file N-400 under 3 year rule. Your evidence looks good and absense of utility bills should't hurt too much.
  5. If she doesn't have GC or re-entry permit, she'd have issues coming back to the US. She may need to relinquish her LPR status and start from scratch when ready to move to the US. I don't believe there's many options for maintaining status in this situation, but others can advice. If she already had GC in hand that would be a risky move, but she could try leaving without approved re-entry permit, after doing biometrics for it.
  6. I hope not ! See its responses to some VJ posts 😃 Though I need to try version 4, those responses were generated by version 3.5.
  7. Extension letter doesn't work without GC. Only passport stamp does. So use it.
  8. Today's WAC update for 24XXX range as of 08:00pm PT: 2 x new approvals in lower range
  9. Here are your options: 1. Submit all monthly statements from the time you got married until now. This is an interpretation of what USCIS instructions for I-751 say. 2. Submit quarterly statements from the time you got married until now. 3. Submit all monthly statements from GC approval until now 4. Submit quarterly statements from GC approval until now. People on this forum do one of these 4 options. All options can get you approved, all options can trigger RFE or get you denied. Safest option is 1, lightest option is 4. What you don't want is only submit few recent statements. Or if you don't follow some system and submit random months from random years.
  10. I haven't heard of them being sent together. They're usually in separate mail as far as I know.
  11. All depends on USPS. Even if both letters send on same day by USCIS, they can come on different days. Usually, extension letter first, then biometrics. But I guess USCIS are trying to speed up things, so you can expect any order.
  12. You cannot extend the extension. Only the green card. So if you originally had 24 months, and now 48 months extension, the card is only extended by 48 months from its expiration date.
  13. @Adventine as long as they're in grayscale and you can see everybody fine in photo, this should be totally fine.
  14. I see no point of asking the question if you already have the answer? I'm not saying FNU will cause issues 100%, I'm just saying there is a possibility of somebody not knowing what to do with it. If you need to go, you need to go.
  15. Interesting, is dedicated line for updates a new thing? Which city?
  16. How do you update GE with extension letter? Just edit validity of GC in the system based on extension letter? Or do you have to actually see somebody in Enrollment Center?
  17. USCIS doesn't operate on US taxpayer's money. Fees only. If they had to do extra work for petitioner they'd need to hire more people or processing times would be even worse than now. More people is more money, meaning higher fees. It's not that simple. An immigrant should do absolutely everything to ensure the case is approved without RFEs and NOIDs. In the end of the day, immigrant and his family are the only ones who truly care what decision they get on the case and how quickly. In my view, it's much easier for petitioner to print more pages than have several people in multiple agencies work on their case to find the information.
  18. The safest thing to do is to go through another full medical. Doctor will only give you the missing shot for Hepatitis B. Maybe call the same office you went to before for exam, perhaps they could give you some discount?
  19. My question is, can you postpone foreign trips until you receive Green Card? That's always the safest thing to do.
  20. Airline agents in countries overseas may give you trouble when you try boarding with it, for sure. Not everybody knows what FNU stands for, especially non-English speaking ones.
  21. Passport valid for 6+ months with blank pages to ensure you transition through different countries (if needed) without a problem. Each country has their own requirements for passports.
  22. Even if they were able, they wouldn't do the leg work for a petitioner. The burden of proof is on petitioner when it comes to USCIS.
