    Check the sister thread: TL;DR: people are waiting since July to receive NOA. So don't expect anything to happen until October.

    My understanding is, this notification can be generated any time the case is opened and viewed. It doesn't necessary mean any action was taken just yet. But there also may be a delay.

    From what I understand, expedite requests take some time to get processed. It will most likely take few months to get noticed, I don't believe they're generally dealt with within few weeks of submitting. Secondly, from what I understand, expedite requests are discretionary. USCIS doesn't have to approve it. What are your reasons for expedite request? I've heard stories of USCIS denying request when a person had mother in terminal stage of cancer...

    Until recently most AOS would take around a year to get approved. In the last few months I see reports of cases being adjudicated in 3-4 months, which is unbelievably fast. Still, I think it's only a small subset of cases, the rest take longer. Maybe somebody has fresh data?

    It's definitely nerve-racking. I'd contact USCIS if you don't hear anything in the next 2 weeks.

    Lately it's been taking a while for everybody to get their NOAs. Typically people receive it within 8 weeks. It seems like your should be arriving any time now. I also assume you haven't moved since filing I-485?

    As much evidence of relationship as you can submit.

    Use whatever address the mail system / mailman in your country will understand, including abbreviations if needed. The whole reason for address is for letter to be delivered to address you provide. If this is a mandatory field, list and add notes as needed. That way you disclosed everything. Contact the school if you don't have the information.

    Each joint sponsor should be eligible on their own. You cannot combine / stack joint sponsor's incomes.

    This evidence doesn't hurt any case. Anything can be questioned, but usually it doesn't. It's recommended by immigration lawyers. I agree, school records / paystubs are even better.
  11. OldUser
    That's one good proof. What about vote registration, rent agreement, mortgage, job?
  12. OldUser
    Yes, all of those are useful. The more good evidence you provide, the strong the case becomes.

    Yes, I submitted 2 affidavits from family friends who knew us as a couple on ongoing basis.

    The status may or may not change. Some people get actively reviewed status, others don't get it. When I waited for my I-751, I got biometrics reused status, while others had "Case received" and nothing about biometrics for a year. Some of those cases got approved before mine. In short, online status means little. Many times USCIS sends letters without changing online status. You should receive letter soon, I'd say first week of September would probably be the latest.

    Most likely you'll get the letter before October. 8 weeks from filing means you should be receiving letter in the next few weeks.

    Yes all trips outside the US in the last 3 or 5 years (depending which rule you use for N-400). It's optional because not everybody travels outside the US.
  17. OldUser
    It's up to you. Neither approach is wrong.

    A US citizen or US LPR whose income exceeds 125% of HHS poverty guidelines as specified here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p For example, if it's somebody with household size of 2 living in one of the 48 contiguous states, the 125% is $25550. So if the sponsor makes over $40000 it should be easy, if between $30000 and $40000 it's a little harder, and if it's below $30000 it may be a challenge. If it's below $25550 then they're not qualified. The more dependants the person has, the higher income they need to be a sponsor.

    So you need a medical exam for immigrant visa. Did you complete it? Was vaccinations section completed?
  20. OldUser
    The entry is when you actually physically entered the US last time. At least that's what I'd put. ~ Not a legal advice ~
  21. OldUser
    No need for a lawyer to file I-131. The form is a bit tricky because it covers multiple documents (Refugee Travel Document, Re-Entry Permit and Advance Parole). If you follow instructions carefully, you will file it for Re-Entry Permit no problem. AFAIK you don't need a lot of documentation for it.

    Congratulations! There's usually few weeks in between approval letter and GC.
  23. OldUser
    It may become available. Also, I found tracking number much earlier in USPS Informed Delivery. You should expect a package described as "USCIS- Lees Summit Production Facility"
  24. OldUser
    Yes, this is normal. Just have to wait and see if it eventually gets approved or not.
  25. OldUser
    To get GC you'll either need to get an immunization or waiver approved. Waiver with prior immunization is possible, but not easy. Waiver also takes more time and money. You can postpone vaccinations and deal with it in the US if prefer. But you'll have to satisfy the civil surgeon and USCIS to get GC. Good luck!
