    Which part is not true? https://edition.cnn.com/2019/07/25/us/us-citizen-detained-texas/index.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2022/05/13/border-detentions-mistaken-identity-ice-cbp/ There was a whole thread somewhere on VJ where one of the former VJ members @Mike E gave a lot more examples of CBP detaining US citizens while figuring out whether they're US citizens and can be admitted. CBP even published report on how many citizens were held in CBP custody over 24 hours. CBP_-_U.S._Citizens_Held_in_CBP_Custody_0.pdf

    What size? I switched from Queen to King and it seemed to help a bit? '😅

    Everything is possible. Especially if your spouse / ex spouse writes a letter to USCIS to say you married for GC. The most investigation you will get at N-400 stage. USCIS can ask you for proof of being married over 2 years when you entered to issue 10 year GC. If you are involved in something that violates the laws, you should stop now, abandon the case and leave US.

    You're right in thinking that. RFEs for I-864 are always like that - autogenerated and not specific. I have no evidence, but I've been thinking for a while, some sort of AI / automation may be used by USCIS to generate RFEs.

    Supreme Court's input required here? This is not a simple matter and not something you can prove to CBP on the spot. In reality travelling without US passport can result in detention until CBP can figure out whether you are indeed a citizen. This can last few days and even weeks in some occasions.

    They do when you file AR-11 online, you get instant confirmation that can be saved / printed for future proof. This is why I don't trust updating address over the phone, and you just confirmed you don't get any proof. I would strongly discourage using this method. At least you can show confirmation for AR-11 filed online if USCIS claims you never did it...

    There's nothing anybody can do about packet that is sitting in large facility full of boxes with mail. USCIS operation is sloooooow due to large scale. You cannot expect to get to Mars in 3 hour flight, it takes at least 9 months. Same here.

    I've never been pulled into a secondary as a LPR travelling on 2 year GC and extension letter. I had maybe 5 trips on it?
  9. OldUser
    Yes

    You probably can get 10 year GC with I-90. You may get scrutiny when applying for naturalization
  11. OldUser
    100% agree on this. Won't hurt but likely won't help much either.

    If passport allows visa free entry, his GC and extension letter are not relevant for Mexico, only for boarding flight back to the US and going through immigration in the US

    Took about 10 days for me in 2021. I'm saying 4-6 weeks based on what I see in the last 2 years on VJ.

    What do you mean by she's doing the divorce? You can file for divorce without her permission any moment. With children involved it's harder, for sure.

    Do you have a valid WAVA case? Did she physically abuse you? Do you have police reports or restraining orders? Did you suffer mental abuse that is documented? Do you have witnesses? It sounds like a weak / no WAVA case so far.
  16. OldUser
    You probably have to divorce and move on / find a different avenue for staying in the US. Staying married means you'll be liable for any new debts she's accumulating.

    I see, I don't think I ever had an alert from them 😅

    Capital One? BoA? I think at the point of notification to accept / decline, the transaction is already dead in most cases and requires attempting paying again. At least in my experience with those two banks. I cannot say with certainty about others.

    Bring to the interview. You're likely going to be asked whether you had any trips between filing and the interview.

    A piece of paper with a table and three columns. First column - question number and page, second column - current answer, third column - correct answer. Give it at the interview to the officer. It doesn't matter whether it's paper or online application. You can bring this as well as any additional evidence in printed form to the interview.

    How is NVC related to this? This is naturalization / removal of conditions case. No visas, no embassies involved.
  22. OldUser
    Prepare an errata sheet, bring to the interview and tell IO at the beginning you have few corrections to make. Give them the errata sheet.

    Well, I anticipated this in November: Based on that thread, you were also concerned about it. Did you find a joint sponsor in the meantime? Finding a job now is probably a very late move that won't work.

    To keep or bring? To keep because USCIS wouldn't play games saying they don't believe copies. If they're documents on watermarked official paper it's hard to say they're fake. I know I'm too defensive when it comes to keeping paperwork, but you can never underestimate the federal agency's ability to cause issues in the future. There was a thread recently about DOS not issuing passport to a young US citizen, doubting their whole naturalization

    My advice is to keep original case receipts and approval letters in addition to what you're keeping. In addition, it wouldn't hurt to scan everything you have and store in the cloud AND USB stick AND computer. Keeping three copies in three different places ensures you can recover data after natural disaster / fire or computer malfunction. You never know when you may be asked again to reprove everything. The chance of it happening is low, but it would be hard if you destroy all evidence. It's a lot of work to scan, but the cost of storing it in the cloud is free or close to 0.
