    K-1 is a single entry visa. You got I-94. After authorized stay expires and you don't have pending I-485, you're out of status.

    How far are you from naturalizing? Why not naturalize first before taking trips to such destinations?

    Yes you can complete everything back in your country. If you get all vaccines your medical exam will be marked completed and you shouldn't have to do it again in the US typically. Or do everything in the US. Just don't do partial exam back home (not completing vaccines). It won't help as you likely would need another exam in the US.

    Seconding that. Credit card transactions get flagged for fraud all the time. If you read VJ, there's quite a few reports on this. Personal check is the king when paying USCIS fees. Here are examples

    CR1/IR1 are immigrant visas.

    Usually this means you're good and not in removal.

    I'm not aware of any forms to be filed to update about this piece of information. DS-160 seems the way to go.

    Have you checked Visa Reciprocity table? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/India.html

    Firstly, early filing is 90 days, not 3 months. 3 months can be less than or more than 90 days which makes it wrong to use. Secondly, no, early filing does not apply to filing under 4 year and 1 day rule. You're already filing early instead of waiting 5 full years. This calculator doesn't account for 4 years and 1 day rule AFAIK.

    Ouch! Yes, FOIA makes sense in this case.
  11. OldUser
    If you were in removal, USCIS would have not had jurisdiction to adjudicate I-485. At least this is my understanding. I think I wouldn't leave the US until resolving this situation. A good lawyer may be needed to fully understand your case.

    You're a victim and you won't to be punished when filing a police report. However... If you, for example, punched the neighbor the day earlier and that's why he slashed the tire. That's a completely different story.
  13. OldUser
    The only caveat: you should have not had any trips lasting over 6 months in the last 5 years and you should have spent at least 30 months in the US in the last 5 years. You should also lived in the USCIS jurisdiction for 90 days prior to filing and have good moral character. Yes, that's exactly the rule you can use in this situation.

    You can definitely file under general provision if you held your GC before January 1, 2021 Yes, you're eligible to file under general provision. It's a much easier route. Less docs required, no need to reprove marriage. Good luck!

    You could have not filed the form. You can only fill a form, and file the application. If form is not mailed yet, nothing is filed. Hopefully you're a spouse of a US citizen (not multiple citizens, please be careful as using wrong words can make your N-400 interview very tough). You can file under general provision, if you meet criteria. It's much simpler than filing as a spouse of US citizen. How long were you an LPR?
  16. OldUser
    First of all, N-400 petition belongs to one person and that is immigrant wishing to naturalize. Secondly, you are not a late filer. There is no requirement to ever naturalize and no timeline. Some decide to become citizens after many years of holding LPR status, others never file N-400.

    It can happen. I've seen this with I-751. Some cases were stuck in "Case received" and then rapidly went through all online statuses on the day they were reviewed and approved.
  18. OldUser
    How can estimates be accurate when they constantly shift? None of my cases took anywhere near of what USCIS estimates or any other estimates predicted... I-751, original estimate was 7 months. Ended up 20.5 months.
  19. OldUser
    15 months is pretty normal. My I-751 case took 20.5 months and it was a simple case. FOIA means your I-751 case will be paused for some time while they're processing the request. I don't think you have a choice. If you're missing information FOIA can provide, then you should file it. N-400 with wrong information is worse than delay of I-751. What info are you missing?
  20. OldUser
    What I'm saying is, you either: - Got GC in error, then you're in trouble as it's not valid - Got it correctly, then you shouldn't have removal proceedings.
  21. OldUser
    You needed to be admissable to receive GC. Did you disclose everything on I-485? Unless removal proceedings were terminated you could not adjust. Did you handle adjustment yourself or with a lawyer?
  22. OldUser
    I'd submit a copy of I-130 approval when filing I-485
  23. OldUser
    The question from USCIS is whether you paid taxes and not whether paid taxes correctly.
  24. OldUser
    I wouldn't wait to file N-400. USCIS is only interested in you filing taxes and whethey are filed jointly. USCIS is not IRS and won't be checking numbers that much. Bring amended returns to the interview.
  25. OldUser
    Did you sponsor the other person for GC too? It will be something USCIS take into account.
