  1. Congrats! Sometimes N-400 isn't smooth, so I'd recommend being ready for N-400 to be the toughest part of immigration journey.
  2. Sorry to hear about your situation 1. Get to a safe place, perhaps shelter if needed 2. Make sure every step you take is documented. WAVA requires proof of abuse too.
  3. That's true, this is why I said: AOS filers now do not need to include payment for EAD.
  4. Got it. So in that case, how is your state / city relevant? I'd check case status for cases around your case to see if there's movement.
  5. Looks like mixing payment methods is not a good thing: I never thought of doing it, but apparently somebody tried.
  6. Processing times state, 80% of family based I-485 take 16.5 months in Seattle. Employment based - 20.5 months. I think it would be overly optimistic to think many people got approved already. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/
  7. Why did you pay for EAD? I-765 and I-131 are free when filed together with I-485. For now.
  8. #2 you were definitely cited. #3 seems like you were not charged #1 - not sure Of course I'm not a lawyer and this is not a legal advice.
  9. I-751 doesn't expire. It gets decided. The extension letter may expire. Your lawyers tactic may be getting I-751 squared out first.
  10. ??? F3 is family based category
  11. Son should be included of course. How old is he?
  12. Which proves the point these times are totally irrelevant. You'll be naturalized before then.
  13. I know the reason... Because none of these estimates are accurate. They're just random numbers I wouldn't pay attention to. Did you have any accurate processing times estimates throughout immigration journey? I didn't.
  14. I see no reason not to apply. 5 year rule is easier, sure. But 3 year rule is doable. Did you or do you have I-751?
  15. Based on what you described, you should be eligible to apply under 3 year rule. Few clarifying questions: - How's the marriage? - Do you live together? - Any issues with this marriage in the past? - Did you have issues getting GC? - How much bonafide marriage evidence do you have? - Did you show this calculation to lawyer? What did they say to your argument you only need about 547 days inside (not sure about the number myself) - Did you consult with a different lawyer? What did they say?
  16. You can either get: - Combo interview for both I-751 and N-400 - Two separate interviews for I-751 and N-400 - Get only N-400 interview with I-751 being decided without interview The estimated times is largely inaccurate, just like I-751 processing times.
  17. I'm not sure whether you violated a law or not, but I think nobody can make any notes or stamps in your passport other than CBP / immigration in various countries. Airlines cannot put any stamps or notes in your passport. As far as I know, neither they have a right to do this, nor your passport would be valid after unauthorized stamps etc.
  18. This is similar to extension letter produced during removal of conditions. You can read about experiences here: https://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/632906-traveling-on-extension-letter/
  19. Is there anybody who had an accurate estimate? I feel like these numbers don't mean a thing
  20. This is risky in your situation. You can formally give up LPR status by filing I-407 and then get a GC again. By the way, did you remember filing US taxes all this time? There's always a chance you won't get WVP / visa after giving up GC.
  21. You can come back to the US on GC. As long as you don't travel for at least a year after returning back in the US and none of your trips are 6 months or longer in the future, you will be able to naturalize in the US under 4 year and 1 day rule.
  22. Did she do a full medical exam with a civil surgeon? https://www.uscis.gov/tools/find-a-civil-surgeon
  23. Same happened to me. I could see tracking number in Informed Delivery before USCIS updated tracking on their website 😃
