  1. Problems with I-864, yes it's possible if you don't make enough money or minimize it for taxes. In that case you'd also need a joint sponsor. But as @MMRF said, what exact problems are you talking about? We can guess endlessly unless you give us specifics.
  2. Only if his own income isn't enough and spouse volunteers to include her income. Sponsor or joint sponsor completes this section
  3. You are... I assume she's adjusting status from K-1 to LPR (green card holder). This is known as Adjustment of Status.
  4. Bad idea. You don't want to be accused of fraud and document forgery. I'd just do a proper I-693 exam with all boxes checked by a civil surgeon in the US. Does it cost extra money? Yes. Does it make your journey much easier and keeps you out of trouble? Yes.
  5. This is not a new thing. Majority of travellers don't have their phones searched. But yes, it's possible.
  6. Not sure this is definition of concurrently... Concurrent filing is typically when you send all forms in one packet. This is the most recently issued passport, even if you never used it for travel. It doesn't ask you for passport you used to enter the US. Whichever is the last one you have, even if it's expired (in your case it's not expired)
  7. Isn't it immigration judge's verdict whether somebody abandoned LPR status?
  8. Why would there be a problem? Being a citizen of both countries you have the maximum travel freedom between US and Canada. Leave and enter the USA on US passport. Leave and enter Canada on Canadian passport. Or equivalent documents proving citizenship for land crossing.
  9. Are you sponsor or petitioner? Are you inside or outside the US?
  10. If you had income and didn't file taxes, that's really bad. One can be fined and even jailed for tax evasion... LPRs and US citizens must report their world wide income to IRS.
  11. I see what you mean. Makes sense. CBP taking ownership is commendable. I though they'd fine airline after denying entry to somebody who they said was OK to board plane. Wouldn't airline need to pay for passenger's return flight? Or they'll try to pressure passenger to cover the cost? Just curious as I don't know much about airline industry.
  12. Check this page: https://secure.ssa.gov/ICON/main.jsp If it gives you any other number than 1-800-772-1213 , then call it
  13. That's funny though. I'm pretty sure CBP wouldn't guarantee somebody will be admitted to the US. So in effect they're saying: "Airline, go ahead, take a risk. We're not 100% sure we'll let the person in, but you can fly them"? 😃
  14. Quote from manual: "USCIS has 120 days from the date of the initial naturalization interview to issue a decision. If the decision is not issued within 120 days of the interview, an applicant may request judicial review of his or her application in district court. The officer must base his or her decision on the laws, regulations, precedent decisions, and governing policies." Link: https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-12-part-b-chapter-4 I'm sure they're just calendar days, but I wouldn't be surprised if USCIS interprets it as work days when required
  15. From carrier guide: "A Lawful Permanent Resident may travel to the United States without a passport with a Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551). Cards with expired I-551s may be boarded without penalty if the card was issued with a 10-year expiration date. " But how likely airline is going to honor it, is a question.
  16. Nobody can tell you with certainty. But API may be somewhat more reliable. You can speak to 3 different agents and get 3 different answers.
  17. Yes, don't create confusion by providing doc with conflicting name. Interview is guaranteed for N-400, so bring it there.
  18. I'd say better not include current version. Bring it to interview or upload corrected later.
  19. I see, I was adjusting in 2019, so things may have changed by then. Thank you for sharing your experince.
  20. Couldn't agree more. Also, I'd add - don't be worried if MyProgress completely dissappears or shows "Your case is taking longer than expected". Both are irrelevant
