  1. Ideally you should spend a bit less time than that if you can. The rule of thumb is to spend 2x as much time outside of the US than in the US. So, if your previous visit was 30 days, you should spend at least 60 days out of the US before trying to reenter. If you're visiting for 80 days, that means after it, I would not even try to visit for the next 6-9 months, maybe even a year. 80 days is a long visit, even on B-1 / B-2 visa, let alone ESTA. Don't forget, relationship is a two way street. Your fiance can visit you in Europe too and enjoy some things that don't exist in the US.
  2. This is classic. When you're ready and have tons of evidence - nothing is needed. But when you walk in unprepared and emptyhanded - strange things happen. So... The morale of the story is: better to be overprepared. And you're right, you'll need this for removal of conditions.
  3. Congratulations!!! Make sure to update citizenship status with SSA and register to vote.
  4. @Pat J please share whether Resident Since date coincides with any of dates you entered the US
  5. It's not abnormal for N-400 take 6-9 months. Anything under 3 months is speedy lucky approvals.
  6. I'd consider consulting a good immigration lawyer. I don't know whether you'll receive GC. And if you do receive it, whether it's gonna be valid. You may have issues with it down the line. Visitors should not get green cards, unless they adjust status in the US.
  7. Not much you can do, sadly. Expedites are pretty hard to get. Essentially they just sent you an automated reply and carried on as usual. I doubt this will be expedited. As mentioned earlier, I-130 will take 12-17 months. So if you filed new I-130 for daughter in June 2025, you can expect approval in the second half of 2026 (June - December)
  8. Try harder. If not, any chance to show he's authorized user?
  9. This is normal. If he doesn't drive, you can leave this out. There's health insurance, renters insurance, life insurance and other useful policies you can have in both names.
  10. Go get it. Doesn't have to be DL, can be state ID. ID doesn't require tests. It's never too late.
  11. This is just a indicator of how "fresh" I-94 printout is. If you haven't filed for AOS yet, just print new I-94, it should have different date at the bottom. If you already submitted I-94, there's nothing to worry about
  12. Sure. Both are nonimnigrant visas. If B-2 was denied due to lack of ties, I would not expect F-1 to be approved
  13. Being a citizen of those two countries is good enough to cause trouble and slow down in immigration to the US
  14. Right, so approval is possible anytime in the next 2-3 months hopefully
  15. He was 26 already when he received GC, so he didn't need to register. It's all good
  16. Yes, you can tell what happened from your memory if you cannot find records .
  17. Ain't going to be fast, sadly. F2B category takes 10+ years You can see yourself, people from 2016 only now are getting processed. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2025/visa-bulletin-for-august-2025.html
  18. Already answred somewhere. Yes, print everything and scan it back after signing.
  19. You were given advice in this thread what to do. Write a letter to convert the case. Or file new petition based on divorce
  20. The last thing you want is divorce soon after receiving 10 year GC. This may be an issue for naturalization. Don't base your marriage on immigration. Your immigration and marriage should reflect your natural choices. If the marriage is dead - why wait?
