Well, I'd do something proactive about it. Write a complaint or something. Unless you want to deal with it again in the future. In any case, I provided some suggestions and link. Good luck!

Request notice here: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDNForm.do?sroPageType=ndn&entryPoint=init But before you do that, I'd go to USPS office serving your address and ask whether they have the mail. There's possibility they still may have it. Also, check with them why they couldn't deliver and ask to deliver if they see a mail like this again.

If you need a waiver and your income is below 400% FPL then it clearly tells you to complete questions 2 - 5b

Yes. The office needs to have paperwork to interview you. They're estimates for people filing new cases now. You won't start from scratch.

Do not send stuff you're not happy with. Why give USCIS something they could use against you? Either ask people to correct affidavit OR do not send it. Same principle can be applied to any other evidence. If it weakens your case or gives a mixed signal - do not use.

Assuming you're immigrant with conditional GC... 0) Make sure you and your child is safe. Make copies of all important documents and evidence of relationship. Store originals with friends / safe deposit box at bank or other safe place. Store copies at friend's and / or in the cloud. 1) Decide whether you want to continue the marriage with the spouse. Can these problems be realistically solved? Do NOT factor in immigration at all. It's on a separate track, though somewhat related, you can remove conditions after getting divorced. You don't have to rely on US citizen spouse. 2) If you decide to divorce, don't wait. In some states it's a lengthy process. Speak to family lawyer and get to know the process. 3) If divorce is fast, you can convert I-751 to divorce waiver after divorce. If not, then you may need to consult with immigration lawyer about best timing for converting petition.

In reasonable time. The danger is never switching to divorce waiver and getting approved on the wrong premise without interview.

I'd try that.

Why not ask the US citizen spouse to check the answers and not bother filling this section? It's the married couple case after all, and US citizen should be able to speak English? The preparer section is typically completed by law firm employees etc.

I think you answered you own question. If it's a requirement then it's not negotiable, especially if you had shots before. Good luck!

Either way is fine. I don't see any issue doing one way or the other.

The US citizen kid isn't required to have N-600. But I highly, highly recommend it. Without it, many years later, the kid may have to prove they're US citizen. Without you around and lost paperwork over the years, it could be difficult. In my opinion, this is one of the best gifts you can give to your child. With N-600, USCIS will register them in their system as US citizen forever. You can apply for kid's US passport today and make a plan to get N-600 done within a year or two. If you save a little each month towards the fee, it won't be too overwhelming. In the future, the price of getting N-600 will only go up (fees never go down). The cost of proving citizenship 20-30-40 years later involving archive inquiries, lawyer fees will be much higher than fees for N-600 today. Good luck!

That's a good idea.

Yes, possible

The guide you saw earlier is good. The only difference to K-1 you don't need I-129F and instead need to file I-130 and I-485 together. Highly recommend filing I-131 and I-765 even if there are no plans of working / travelling right now. It takes a while to get them approved, so won't be able to get it fast if suddely need them. I-765 is a great ID allowing to get Drivers license, open bank accounts etc

In general, yes, she can visit while waiting. Especially if she leaves within the time limit of Esta authorization period. Of course, any entry of visitor to the US is subject to CBP approval. You can also visit Japan, it's a beautiful country with pretty affordable prices due to current exchange rate.

If you count the time to receive GC it is similar timeline. If you count time to enter the US, with AOS she's already here so that's a winner in this sense.

You'll apply for I-130, she'll leave, and once I-130 is approved she can apply for immigrant visa by filing DS-260

No, AOS is not related to K-1 in this case. K-1 is only for fiance, but you're already married. Plus if adjusting status, you're not getting any visa. Before making this important decision, please consult with your spouse and make sure she understands the implications of not being to easily travel back or not being able to work while waiting for GC. Especially if they have elder parents, kids etc back in Japan. Another important aspect of adjustment is being able to sponsor the immigrant. Please check if your income meets the requirements for I-864, and if not, you need to find a joint sponsor.

Please post your comparison, it may help OP

Adjustment of status is not the same as CR-1 / IR-1 visa. The biggest differences: - The cost ( Adjustment of status is much more expensive) - Ability to work and leave the US (adjustment is more restrictive) In both cases, however, filing I-130 is required.

The stamp is proof of valid entry with inspection. I'd request it regardless of whether physical card arrives or not and keep it safe. You never know if you ever need to prove valid entry...

Yes, I agree with this. And this may be the reason why you're not called for the interview. If the field office offers same say oath, why'd they call you for two appointments?

I never said that
