  1. I think this is a good start. Some recently married couples have less evidence. Keep building evidence. Include those boarding passes.
  2. Yes, it's possible, not 100% though. But would you rather - Pay for UPS - Potentially pay I-90 fee (if GC lost), $455 - Wait 1.5 - 2 years to get replacement ?
  3. @vkfcjsdl check out this page https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-g-chapter-2 Marital Union is described as "actually residing" This may be the reason your case could get denied. But let us know, maybe there's something USCIS would do due to COVID etc.
  4. Looks like you were not eligible to naturalize, considering 9 months absense. You clock for naturalization got reset on 10/20/2020. To naturalize under 3 year rule you should have filed N-400 in July this year (10/20/2023 minus 90 days) or later. AFAIK your case should get denied, because of two criteria: marital union and continuous residence. Let us know how it goes though.
  5. The whole article on it with sample can be found here. It can be it either notarized or copies of IDs attached (as suggested by my lawyer). Of course, signed and dated. Good luck!
  6. Yes, that's good evidence. Do it. The more evidence of all kinds, the better. I think of it in terms of "what is the max evidence can I provide?" instead of "what is the least evidence needed for approval?"
  7. IMHO if in doubt do both: upload and mail it with certified mail. At least you will have proof of replying to RFE. Upload doesn't give any proof of you submitting evidence AFAIK. IT systems can "lose" anything uploaded easily.
  8. How about sharing a room with a roommate in the US while you're trying to get a solid job that will pay well? Why not move stuff yourself instead of spending on movers? Your questions are not immigration related, they're life related...
  9. What is the basis for expedite request? E.g. why is her GC should be prioritized over others waiting in the same situation? Her endorsed immigrant visa is valid for a year and allows leaving and coming back to the US meanwhile.
  10. Interview or RFE if there's anything missing. Could you please update your timeline for others?
  11. Not specific amount, but think for yourself. Would it be reasonable to travel to the US with $100 for a two week trip? Probably not. What all the ties does he have to the home country? Does he have a well paid job there, property etc? That's more important. Also, on DS-160 he should disclose you as a relative in the US. There's a high chance his visa will be denied though because of you living in the US. As mentioned by @Mike E, if he has a chance of coming on visa waiver program, he should use it instead of applying for visit visa.
  12. It's OK. Make sure to include I-765 and I-131 in your packet. As soon as you get SSN, which should be after you get your work card, you should continue building more evidence. You can bring this evidence to interview if you have it, or reply to RFE if you get it. You'll need this evidence later on in your immigration journey. Just keep collecting it. Do you not have any trips together (airline tickets etc)? Include that. Affidavits from his family and your friends may also be useful, though it's not the strongest evidence.
  13. Agreed, if instructions don't mention uploading evidence, it's a 50/50 chance IO will even take anything uploaded into consideration.
  14. Today's WAC update for 24XXX range as of 9:00 AM PT: 1 x new approval in lower range Good start of the day, will give an update on this range later this afternoon.
  15. Ignore it, this shouldn't be a problem. It's good that you're aware of it. Sometimes, US spouse doesn't share this info with beneficiary and this is a red flag if asked at AOS interview. Also, this may be a problem if occurred recently or too many times. Your spouse may need to be ready to explain very clearly and concisely if asked about prior marriage during interview. Also, need to mention it on relevant forms.
  16. Yes, interview is a big chance in your case. Good luck, it seems like it's not far off, probably a matter of weeks now.
  17. Ok, maybe that's USCIS trying to optimize workload. Also, possibility of you being scheduled for interview at local field office.
  18. You can check threads for AOS, people often describe what they send in detail. Also here is a list you can use too.
  19. Good luck with that explanation. Be prepared to be hit with misrepresentation. You decided to apply for N-400. Have you consulted with a lawyer? Sometimes the best course of action is to remain an LPR for the rest of your life. Your case may be one of them. You need somebody with knowledge to look at your whole immigration and personal history and see whether N-400 is a good idea.
  20. Today's WAC update for 24XXX range as of 3:25 PM PT: 2 x new RFEs in lower range 1 x new RFE in upper range It seems like somebody was actually looking at cases on Saturday 👏
