  1. True Who's he and what's wrong with current Bahamas government?
  2. @abaldo last visited this website more than 2 years ago, on April 25, 2023. Don't expect a reply soon.
  3. Also testing Palau ID? 😃 Joking. Until certain point, in some undisclosed European country I was sold beer without ID at age of 12, because "I was buying it for my parents"
  4. MM/YYYY: July 2025 Location: California, US Business / organization: Safeway Check type: Age verification Reason: Alcohol purchase Result: Success Details: Got asked for ID by a young man at check out when purchasing wine along with groceries. He got suprised for a second, but within 2-3 seconds confirmed my age and proceeded as normal. The check was pretty soft though and relaxed (ID or say your date of birth). Wonder how it would have gone with stricter check. Cc @TBoneTX only took another attempt at buying booze 😃
  5. You may never receive EAD/AP and get GC after interview. Good luck!
  6. Yes, it's possible get either biometrics or interview apppointment within 2 months of filing. I got interview 3.5 months after filing.
  7. You need marriage cert for most recent marriage if you're still married. Or divorce certificate. Yes, you may get asked questions. Just be ready to answer them.
  8. No, prior approvals don't mean automatic approval in the future. Maybe the other person with bad history applied for visa after your brother's first visa was approved. Or the databases finally synched from different locations. Passport numbers are different every time somebody gets a new passport, even the same person.
  9. I'm really sorry, but I disagree with spotless definition, as you mentioned: Your case is NOT squeaky clean in my opinion. At the same time, would you be detained or deported or denied citizenship? Probably not, these are not issues that result in denial of citizenship typically. Most likely, you'll naturalize just fine. Good luck!
  10. Hi, the kids, just like you, are permanent residents and not K-1 / K-2 anymore as far as I can tell from your message. When it comes to visas for Bahamas, this is what I found: "For visits NOT exceeding 30 days: An original Alien Registration Card (Green Card) A national passport (passport from country of birth), valid for at least six months at the time of entry" I'd still confirm with cruise line whether visa is needed or not. If you're not entering Bahamas, I don't see the need for visa, but this is not an immigration advice. As for your discrepancy between name in passport and on GC, carry certified copy of marriage certificate.
  11. Sadly adjustment of status has a lot of drawbacks. Whenever people ask whether to do AOS or consular, most of the time I recommend consular unless somebody is on work visa and has income in the US, for example. Hundreds of thousands, if not millions, are applying for EADs every year. Hence the delay.
  12. GE yes, GE card probably no. At least from my experience and what I know based on FAQ
  13. Did you file for EAD for the child? Typically this is what needed to get SSN after AOS forms are filed.
  14. Thanks for the report! I personally think one should have a realisitic expectation. If it says up to 24 months, one should prepare for 24 months VS being dissapointed and worried if card doesn't arrive within a year. With USCIS it's hard to know. For example, my I-751 took 20.5 months instead of 7 months according to processing times when I filed. If I was too hopeful for 7 months processing, it would have made my wait a lot harder....
  15. AFAIK, only LPRs and citizens can get GE card, even if a foreign national like UK citizen can get GE on work visa. That's why I was asking about when you got GE whether you were LPR or not. Thanks for the update!
  16. Interesting, is this covered in their FAQ? Or how did you learn it?
  17. When you applied for GE, were you already a permanent resident? If not, have you updated GE after becoming resident? I updated them a while ago after getting 2 year GC, then after 10 year GC, as I enrolled in GE under work visa.
  18. You can do it after logging in to travel portal dashboard (https://ttp.cbp.dhs.gov/dashboard): Before replacing card, you need to update citizenship status with Global Entry. The $25 fee for card replacement wasn't covered by credit card, unfortunately.
  19. @Aoife&Cam he answered "No" to all questions, but were all answers truthful?
  20. Understandable, still should have booked flights only after getting ESTA approved. Good luck and keep us posted!
  21. Agreed, flights should only be booked after visa in passport is issued.
