Oh no! I had like a 5-6 am flight from Paris but the manager was there.

Can also go to same DMV in hopes to see somebody more competent or ask for manager. It also helps printing the checklist for DL / ID from DMV website. Usually it lists all accepted documents.

You should receive letter with code by mail

Or he can file AOS and say he won't come to the interview if one is scheduled. Or he'll threaten to divorce while AOS is pending. Or similar things as above during ROC stage. Unless OP lied about something significant or cheated, the USC is likely excercising his power.

@Aimless_wanderer thank you very much for the detailed experience of what you went through. Did you have a lawyer with you present? I suppose no? In my opinion, none of this rudeness would have happened in presence of your lawyer. That's why I'm bringing one despite a straightforward case. She seemed to be right about few points, for example you're required to being all EADs, reentry permits, travel documents and other stuff as the interview letter probably mentioned. But it doesn't excuse her for being agressive. Sorry you had to go through this. On the other hand, congratulations on becoming a US citizen!

You cannot file adjustment of status documents outside of the US. I don't understand your history, based on your previous messages you had I-751, meaning you had a Green Card. If you have a Green Card, you don't need to go through AOS again.

This is OK. There's no logic in approvals or of there is, we don't know it. A friend of mine filed I-751 two weeks later after me and got approved 3 or 4 months earlier. Some of the cases next to my case got approved earlier than me, some got approved later for no apparent reason.

Case status doesn't require login, it's open. Cases have sequential numbers. The tools just goes and checks statuses for all cases.

There's a known maintenance window which USCIS notified about in advance. Just wait until it's over and retry.

How old were you on the "Resident since" date on your GC @killadocg23? That's what really matters. Before that your were a studend (non-immigrant) and also was going through AOS, which does not make you an immigrant at that point until you get GC approved.

Not just transit, even enter. I confirm it works, as I visited Canada without visa or eTA.

Generally true. Few points: * extension letter accompanied by GC ** GC grants visa free access to certain countries despite nationality. Example: Canada, Mexico

I'm not 100% sure this is true for somebody who is a US citizen. There's limits on "gifts" above which US citizen fiance would have to pay taxes on.

If you were married for few years, there's very very tiny chance of annulment. It's hard to pull off, especially if your spouse is not a big public figure with expensive lawyers. Yes, you can end up in removal proceedings, that's right. This is why you need to divorce asap and file I-751 on your own when eligible (90 days window opens or divorce finalized, whichever earlier).

Not the smartest thing to do. Though understandable, it's also not the smartest thing by USC. You can file a police report about your IDs. Annulment is unlikely. If USC says it was fraud, then they participated in it by filing and signing AOS forms. Most likely it's going to be a divorce. You have just one viable option: divorce and remove conditions on your own, with help of a lawyer perhaps. Your immigration journey just became more challenging. As much as I sympathize with USC (nobody deserves to be cheated upon), they don't have the right to your IDs and they don't get to decide whether you stay in the US or not. Notice me leaving out the money part. AFAIK the money in joint account is joint and can be spent by any of you without any penalty. I guess it's also time to start contributing money into your own account and move out.

What about EAD card?

I'm glad you made it back in the end. The moment airline staff was having issues, you should have called their manager. Also it helps to show them Carrier Information Guide https://www.cbp.gov/document/guides/carrier-information-guide I had PDF printed in case if I had to show to airline staff, but thankfully never had issues travelling on expired GC and extension letter. One time an airline agent was puzzled, but called her manager who instantly helped.

Normal. It happened to me at AOS stage. Biometrics were taken before the interview despite I submitted them earlier in the process. I haven't filed gor N-400 but I'd imagine it would be the same. Of course. ID documents such as passport, EAD, re-entry permit, Green Card is a US government property, not your property. If government asks you to return them, you should. It may not be taken at oath, but you should at least bring them.

What's holding him in Texas? You seem to be renting anyways. I'd say move for him wouldn't make sense if you were away for 3-6 months. But for 2 years? You'd have to document your efforts to see each other and have a clear plan of what happens after 2 years for ROC to be approved.

K3 has been dead for 5+ years now.

AR-11 online. You're LPR at that point.

What ties would she be maintaing to the US? Other than filing I-131?

If you're resident since The earliest you can apply (3 year rule, 90-days early) for N-400 is 12/30/2023. I'd apply the first week of January 2024 to be safe. If you file too early, it will get denied.

You can reply in cover letter, but you must file AR-11 and I-865 anyways. It's required.
