  1. You can use random number generator online to get similar estimates to what USCIS is providing... Just set min to 1 and max to 12 and click "Generate" button. I wouldn't believe these estimates.
  2. Congratulations! Based on VJ I've seen the following: - Brought the spouse -> spouse never asked to participate - Didn't bring the spouse -> Asked where the spouse is - Brought extra evidence -> Never asked for it - Didn't bring new evidence -> Asked for evidence So you did the right thing coming to USCIS field office with the spouse. You're almost there!
  3. Just barely meeting the requirement or missing by few thousands will likely result in RFE. I'd find a joint sponsor who exceeds the income requirement by at least 10k to be on safe side.
  4. Doesn't have to include in household size. This depends on how he files taxes. Household includes spouses and any dependants.
  5. This means nobody you speak to at USCIS has any clue. I don't believe anything they say over chat / phone / online status. The only real update is a letter in the mail. My guess, somebody at USCIS opened file and closed it. This triggered "Action was taken" even if nothing was changed. That's the only explanation I can give as I've seen reports of this before with nothing happening after that for some time.
  6. Are you asking whether only beneficiary should be receiving the biometrics appointment invitation? Typically yes. If the sponsor is receiving it, does the sponsor has any crimes?
  7. Yes, list all variations that appear on her documents. Don't list any possible variations, just the ones she used before. This is not an issue.
  8. You should have received 4 year extension. Did you move since filing I-751? Maybe it got lost in the mail... To request one: https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayNDNForm.do?sroPageType=ndn&entryPoint=init You remain LPR, but you don't have proof of status. This is not a desirable situation. I-751 used to take 3-6 months. But yes, it is normal nowadays to take 2-4 years. Not sure what I-400 is, but if you're eligible, you can apply for N-400. Sometimes this pushes I-751.
  9. The key word is sometimes. Most cases seem to be processed slowly nowadays, especially the initial phase...
  10. Check the sister thread: TL;DR: people are waiting since July to receive NOA. So don't expect anything to happen until October.
  11. My understanding is, this notification can be generated any time the case is opened and viewed. It doesn't necessary mean any action was taken just yet. But there also may be a delay.
  12. From what I understand, expedite requests take some time to get processed. It will most likely take few months to get noticed, I don't believe they're generally dealt with within few weeks of submitting. Secondly, from what I understand, expedite requests are discretionary. USCIS doesn't have to approve it. What are your reasons for expedite request? I've heard stories of USCIS denying request when a person had mother in terminal stage of cancer...
  13. Until recently most AOS would take around a year to get approved. In the last few months I see reports of cases being adjudicated in 3-4 months, which is unbelievably fast. Still, I think it's only a small subset of cases, the rest take longer. Maybe somebody has fresh data?
  14. It's definitely nerve-racking. I'd contact USCIS if you don't hear anything in the next 2 weeks.
  15. Lately it's been taking a while for everybody to get their NOAs. Typically people receive it within 8 weeks. It seems like your should be arriving any time now. I also assume you haven't moved since filing I-485?
  16. Use whatever address the mail system / mailman in your country will understand, including abbreviations if needed. The whole reason for address is for letter to be delivered to address you provide. If this is a mandatory field, list and add notes as needed. That way you disclosed everything. Contact the school if you don't have the information.
  17. Each joint sponsor should be eligible on their own. You cannot combine / stack joint sponsor's incomes.
  18. This evidence doesn't hurt any case. Anything can be questioned, but usually it doesn't. It's recommended by immigration lawyers. I agree, school records / paystubs are even better.
  19. That's one good proof. What about vote registration, rent agreement, mortgage, job?
  20. Yes, I submitted 2 affidavits from family friends who knew us as a couple on ongoing basis.
