  1. Unless you claimed to be a US citizen and that's why they registered you. Otherwise best of luck!
  2. @Ann&James we need more information. What exact error are they seeing? Is there a screenshot you can share here?
  3. 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.
  4. Give it a few days. Sometimes it means there's real update, but many times it's a "ghost" update.
  5. Yes, lately 2-4 weeks, last year up to 8-10 weeks was a normal timeline.
  6. 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.
  7. No issue with petitioner changing name. My USC spouse changed name, though prior to filing I-130. Beneficiary changing name is typically trickier.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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!
  11. 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.
  12. March 2025 I'd guess. Unless @singh0819 lives in the future
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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
  16. Not an unusual timeline for a busy place like NY. It's still very quick. You filled on March 20, but when did you file?
  17. You cannot apply for their naturalization. Your parents apply for naturalization themselves after they meet all requirements, including speaking English, understanding all questions, knowing US civics history etc.
  18. Yep, share your new status with next employer they do I-9. Good luck!
  19. Yes, that may be helpful. Do not apply too often, it shows desperation. In your opinion. Not in the eyes of officer, otherwise visas would have been granted.
  20. ~ Thread was moved to Tourist Visas as it talks about B1/B2 ~
  21. Your wife living in the US is the main reason why her parents were rejected. She's a strong tie to the US for them. Things like well paid jobs, house and investment properties, other assets and close family in China may help with next application. I would wait for a while before retrying. Did her parents have strong ties to China? Losing visa fees and transportation / accomodation fees is understandably annoying, but travel to the US is expensive too!
