For all statements, tax transcripts and bills, make sure to include every month and every page. Yes, it may be expensive to do, but you want for the case to be approved, right?

@Ani2 you can be as creative as pulling detailed statements from phone provider and highlighting text messages and phone calls between you and your ex spouse when you lived together. Include emails to each other, texts etc

@Ani2 how did you submit photos? I'd scan them and include 3 per page. Annotate each photo: date, place, occasion and who is on photo (left to right). Include photos with family and friends.

Yes this also helps. Include them. You would have to explain in cover letter that despite some accounts were not joint, they're showing the same address. I've got a feeling you got all the necessary evidence, just need to work harder, organize it well and be creative. You got this!

Another thing, @Ani2, if you and your ex still have old Driver Licenses showing the same address, scan them next to each other and include in your evidence.

Make sure your spouse is with you regardless. Sometimes just US spouse's presence helps IO to approve your N-400 on the spot.

Rescheduling = risk of having to wait for many months or USCIS may forget about your case altogether. I would prioritize immigration over a leasure trip, even if you want to see your family very bad. Can always visit them with more good news when you become a US citizen !

Nowadays extension letters are valid for 48 months. If he gets one of those AND it's less than 4 years since expiry date on conditional green card, he can travel on GC and extension. However, as @mindthegap mentioned, he also got the I-551 stamp to minimize chances of any issues.

Are you absolutely sure his country of origin requires him to give up his citizenship? Most countries are OK with multiple citizenships, and USA doesn't require to give to any citizenships for sure. In addition, some countries which do not allow dual citizenship in their constitution do not have clear laws explaining how to implement it, do not have any fines or penalties and never in reality enforce it. Do not take it as legal advice, of course. Follow all the laws in all the countries of citizenship. What country is he from?

Pictures are the weakest type of evidence. You got to find more evidence or explain why you don't have some. A lawyer can help navigating it. It's possible to do yourself, but with thin evidence it won't be approved.

@Ani2 any trips taken together? Any boarding passed for those? Any reservations for hotels, events listing both names? Did you share mobile phone plan? Every single piece of evidence is vital now.

Did you send statements for every month that you lived together? Or just a few random ones?

Yes, people get denied without interview. Your ex should give you all evidence he can from the time you lived together. And affidavit. Did you guys file taxes together at least once? Did you have a lease?

@Ani2 I would vote "No" for your ex husband coming to interview, if you end up having one. Nothing good would come out of that in my opinion. Instead, if your ex spouse is cooperative, ask for a sworn affidavit saying the marriage was bonafide, just didn't work out. Also ask him for any evidence he may have. Presents for you, joint bank statements, joint insurance etc. Any trips taking together. I would hire a lawyer if you can afford to. You need strong proof of marriage and legal representation at potential interview. Good luck! P. S. What all the evidence did you submit so far? Only photos? This won't be enough.

I don't know why they refer to it as Microsoft's product in the article. It's pretty much the thing I'm interacting with, created by OpenAI. Microsoft invested some $$$$$$$$$ in it, and has access to it for integration with Bing. I agree though, it responds with too much confidence when it doesn't now something for sure. Hence I was begging USCIS earlier in this thread not to use this type of tech for risk based approach adjustments 😃

Doesn't matter. You're married, so you can file jointly and get a better tax deduction. Explanation: "If, at the end of your tax year, you are married and one spouse is a U.S. citizen or a U.S. resident within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 7701(b)(1)(A) and the other is not, you can choose to treat the nonresident spouse as a U.S. resident for tax purposes. This includes situations in which one of you was not a U.S. resident at the beginning of the tax year but was at the end of the year, and the other was not a U.S. resident at the end of the year."

My next questions was: "So how about the monkey poop coffee? Is human drinking it comparable to cat eating owner's barf?" ChatGPT answer : "Monkey poop coffee, also known as civet coffee, is a type of coffee that is made from the beans that have been eaten and then excreted by civet cats, a small mammal native to Southeast Asia. The beans are collected from the feces, cleaned, roasted, and brewed into a unique and expensive coffee. While the process of making civet coffee may seem unappetizing to some, it is not comparable to a cat eating its owner's vomit. The beans that are used to make civet coffee are thoroughly cleaned and roasted at high temperatures, which eliminates any potential pathogens or harmful bacteria that may have been present in the feces. However, there are concerns about the welfare of civet cats in the production of civet coffee. In some cases, civet cats are kept in captivity and force-fed coffee beans, which can cause them to become ill or die. Therefore, it's important to choose a brand that sources its beans responsibly and prioritizes the welfare of the animals involved in the production process. In summary, while the idea of drinking coffee made from animal feces may not be appealing to some people, it is not comparable to a cat eating its owner's vomit. However, it's important to be mindful of the welfare of animals involved in the production process and choose products that prioritize animal welfare."

Answer: "No, it is not appropriate for a cat to eat their owner's vomit. Vomiting can be caused by a variety of factors, including illness or indigestion, and it may contain harmful bacteria or toxins that can be dangerous for cats to ingest. Additionally, it is not recommended to feed cats human food, especially if it is spoiled or contaminated. Cats have unique nutritional needs, and their diet should consist of a balanced and appropriate amount of protein, fat, and other nutrients that are specific to their needs. If you are concerned about your cat's dietary needs, it is best to consult with a veterinarian who can provide guidance and recommendations for appropriate feeding."

Tier 1 almost created an urban myth 😃 Either he / she thought you needed AP, but that's usually given to people in AOS stage, not once they become LPRs. Or travel document with I-551 stamp as @SteveInBostonI130 mentioned. Either way, you should try to get an extension letter or I-551 stamp.

Awesome @Mike E thank you for your detailed reply!

Was the lawyer present in your interview? I find the second set of questions, especially showing the contents of the phone borderline of what is legal (unless somebody has references to relevant laws?) I wonder if the second set of questions would have been asked at all with a lawyer present. Kind of reminds me of another topic where IO was asking about LPR's cancer diagnosis (out of good faith according to LPR).

That's very thin. Depending on IO it may or may not be enough. No joint bank account statements? No bills in both names? Are you applying under 3 or 5 year rule? Sorry if I misunderstood and assumed 3 year rule.

Haha I wonder if it suggested the owner to barf on the tile after a night out 🤣

I asked it to analyze a couple of Dr Dre and Eminem's songs and asked to write its own lyrics. It first refused, saying it would he copyright issue bla bla bla, but I managed to convince it to write one. It was funny and lame 😃 I asked whether it could make it more "serious" and "close to reality" and it would refuse saying it's too violent.

I had a funny request asking it to write a sequel to "War and Peace". Just to give you some context, it includes about 1200 pages. Obviously, a ridiculous request, but I was curious what it would respond with. It said it couldn't do it because it was a violation of copyright. I replied that's a lie since it was written in 19th century and no longer was covered by copyright. In its turn ChatGPT said in its opinion it's not a moral thing to do... I asked how come it's talking about moral, since it shouldn't have an opinion. Then it just said it won't 😃
