    It's always best to. In case if AOS rejected or denied, you'll have status to fall back to. If you don't maintain F-1, you may become out of status if denied, and subject to deportation. Recently quite a few people got NTAs pretty quickly after AOS denial. Biometrics for AOS is just the beginning of the process. You may have to wait for months to learn whether you're approved or denied, and probably have an interview too. By the way, even before COVID, maintaining status was recommended by my lawyer when I was adjusting. Now it's even more recommended.

    Yes you can

    Yes, whenever you see a shield next to logo, this means member is a moderator (there's several types)

    Probably not only filled, but also filed. N-400 cannot be filed just for the interview. It's for the whole thing over again, including biometrics, interview and oath. Sadly that's the way it is, when spouse is no longer around (passed away or divorced), applicant cannot get citizenship under this streamlined process

    Congrats! Still processing is a filler status

    No No. You can include table of contents and that's pretty much it. No need to justify why you're adjusting. There is a guide on Visa Journey. The more the better. Anything above 40K, as long as you don't have dependants or alimony to pay is OK. Here's official numbers https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p Good luck!

    You can adjust. Include old and new evidence from both UK and US. The biggest hurdle may be showing financial capability to support for I-864
  8. OldUser
    Smart choice. Good luck!

    Apparently, more people are scheduled for biometric appointments. Reusing biometrics was introduced due to COVID. Prior to that, everybody went to do biometrics in person. Seems like the policy is getting reversed back to normal.
  10. OldUser
    Maybe that's why you're called for biometrics. If those were crimes of sexual nature, you may not be eligible to sponsor anybody for visa.

    Civil surgeon will determine whether these are safe to administer or not. You don't have a choice. Either waiver (on which grounds) or you have to take it (unless health official determines it is not safe). The idea is, every immigrant entering the US should not pose health risk to US population. That's why the requirements are strict.

    Did you have any crimes in your background?

    At least you got understanding of what N-400 interview is like @Roxy&Ryan Thank you for the detailed experience here. Technically, you can still travel with 2 year GC and extension letter. However, even with 10 year approval put aside, airlines sometimes don't know what to do with extension letters and deny boarding. If you fly, you should pick a big airline and big airports. I cannot give 100% guarantee you'll have no issues, but usually it's OK to travel

    I'd argue it's the opposite. All of the USCIS cases I had took longer than initial estimate with exception of N-400 which took much faster than estimated. Those folks you mentioned were in 20% lucky, not 80% normal cases
  15. OldUser
    Anything under 12 months is quick when it comes to USCIS

    This was kind of sadly predictable based on earlier threads Joint sponsor. I know some folks on VJ would be promising good results with assets, but you had over a year to secure a qualifying joint sponsor.

    You won't find it if you never filed a case before. Leave blank.

    What do you mean by "covis" in the title actually?
  19. OldUser
    "Quick" or "fast" in immigration can mean few months VS years.
  20. OldUser
    I'd say not asylum, but refuge. I think majority of Ukrainians are admitted as refugees to Europe as of today.

    Are you sure the attorney is a real lawyer, not a notario? Do they do anything else besides immigration? Are they searchable on AILA?
  22. OldUser
    Congrats! Did you file under 5 year rule or 3 year rule?
  23. OldUser
    It does seems relatively simple, but I wouldn't do it myself unless I really have to.
  24. OldUser
    Good idea, @WannabeHuman can you post exact wording of the letter (excluding your personal info)
  25. OldUser
    True, not hard requirement. However, I always tried to do the most, and not the least to ensure smooth approval. Whether to fight for principals or comply can be decided by immigrant. In my circumstances, potentially delayed or denied immigration benefit and / or added stress was not worth it. Comingling finances (at least partly) has benefits that go way beyond immigration.
