    I'm sorry, it wasn't my plan to scare you, but I'd definitely check records at DMV and Selective Service to ensure clerks didn't make a mistake somewhere. If it's all clear there, you're safe to file N-400. If however, somewhere they registered you as a citizen by mistake, you'd need to amend that and maybe consult with lawyer before filing for naturalization, as it may be a pain in the back!

    Step #1 is learn whether OP is in removal as indicated earlier

    Awesome! That's a relief.

    Your name is mentioned? Your ex couldn't inact you? Some spiteful spouses do that. How's your relationship? Are you divorcing on friendly terms?
  5. OldUser
    This is very scary and probably NOT a DIY. 1) Are you sure the spouse you're divorcing didn't withdraw I-751? 2) You would have been better filing fresh I-751 instead of trying to convert existing one. I recently heard (from well known online lawyer experience), conversion puts people in difficult spot. 3) You should absolutely FOIA everything and also check your A number to see if you're in removal with EOIR - https://acis.eoir.justice.gov/en/

    Do you have letter in documents tab saying your biometrics were reused? MyProgress is very unreliable, I wouldn't trust it. Do you have a check box in blue circle under biometrics step in MyProgress?

    Or.... you'll get two letters with access code. That's also possible

    Common name? Prior trouble with law?
  9. OldUser
    It typically comes in separate mail
  10. OldUser
    Unless you claimed to be a US citizen and that's why they registered you. Otherwise best of luck!

    @Ann&James we need more information. What exact error are they seeing? Is there a screenshot you can share here?
  12. OldUser
    Nobody here would know. Mention it to officer during both interviews, and maybe they can help. It depends on office and how busy it is.
  13. OldUser
    Give it a few days. Sometimes it means there's real update, but many times it's a "ghost" update.
  14. OldUser
    Yes, lately 2-4 weeks, last year up to 8-10 weeks was a normal timeline.
  15. OldUser
    Mine showed 7 months when I filed N-400, but it took 3.5 months. On day of my oath, MyProgress was estimating 3 weeks until decision.

    No issue with petitioner changing name. My USC spouse changed name, though prior to filing I-130. Beneficiary changing name is typically trickier.
  17. OldUser
    You may be right. I thought it was strange to worry about 3 months old case in NYC. If it's over a year, as you show, this can certainly happen in this busy field office.

    What's the residence since date on your GC @JessnTrev ? You need / needed to file I-751 to remove conditions. You can do it on your own. If you filed I-751 jointly with US citizen spouse, you need to file a new I-751 with divorce waiver. Once you get receipt for new case, write a letter to USCIS asking to withdraw your old case mentioning you filed a new case and it's number.

    This should have been thought through before applying for N-400. Now, it's either not going to be a problem, or you'd get RFE. Keep us posted and good luck at the interview!

    No attorney will guarantee outcome. The problem is, there's a lot of discretion involved and no black and white answers. One person applying will be OK, while other denied. Break in continuous residence does not result in losing LPR status per se. Losing status typically occurs when the ties are weak and resident spends way too much time outside the US.

    March 2025 I'd guess. Unless @singh0819 lives in the future
  23. OldUser
    In most cases, the safest approach is waiting until applicant clearly meets the criteria. If they don't care about losing filing fees, they can apply. Did they keep lease or house during these trips? That's some good evidence.

    It's always good to have a joint sponsor lined up in case you get an RFE. Your current income qualifies you to try without joint sponsor first.

    Does it match the description given for divorce certificate in Department of State visa reciprocity? https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Brazil.html
