  1. You can either apply under 3 year rule now or under 5 year rule in 2026, the choice is yours. The son is over 18, can only apply for N-400 in 2026 after 5 years of residence.
  2. Effectively, right now you're helping her to build a VAWA case. Which is her way to get GC and stay in the US without you being married to her.
  3. I can only imagine how hard it is, but it's for the best. Nothing good is going to come up from you meeting face to face.
  4. This is a mistake. Talking to her is a mistake. Are you aware that to an outsider, such as USCIS officer, this may look like stalking? She wants you to give her answers you're giving that she will use in her VAWA claim. E.g. "I wasn't safe, he insisted on getting to know my physical location, trying to push me to stay with him". Just cut all communication. In all honesty, the more this chat, ultimatims etc continues, the more she would look like a legitimate VAWA victim...
  5. They key to success is to provide what they asked for (see messages from @EatBulaga and @Edward and Jaycel) Plus add updated evidence. You need a lot more: new bank statements, lease agreement or mortgage statements showing you live together, utility bills in both names, affidavits, copies of trip reservations taken together, copies of car or health insurance showing each other. Without this, USCIS can issue NOID or deny case.
  6. An urban myth, also known as an urban legend, is a story or statement that is widely circulated as true but is actually false.
  7. No it's not. Just because somebody waits longer or shorter, doesn't make case get approved easier. It depends on how strong the case is and how much evidence you provide.
  8. This is an urban myth. Just adds unnecessary work for USCIS rejecting K-3 when I-130 gets approved. Of course you're free to do it.
  9. Exam is simply a 30 min appointment. You should get results soon, most of the times right after exam. The cost? Probably $300-500 on average
  10. But sadly now a civil surgeon will likely want to charge you for entire exam, which is probably more expensive than that jab you skipped. Not many civil surgeons mess with vaccination portion only of I-693
  11. December 2024 filers stats as of 03/13/2025 @ 11:55 PM ET: Approved: 1534 Denied: 17 Fingerprints Scheduled: 321 Interview Cancelled: 145 Interview Scheduled: 9891 Pending: 4 Processing: 14640 Received: 14 ResponseToRFE: 21 RFE: 202 Terminated: 6 Withdrawal: 32 OathCeremonyNotice: 850 OathCeremonyScheduled: 851 OathCeremonyReady: 2
  12. This is normal overall. If you follow the stats I post frequently here, more than a half of December filers still don't have an interview date.
  13. I'm really really glad your interview went well and you're in line for oath!!! Congratulations! Were you asked for any docs or evidence? Did you find a good way to organize them? I'm getting ready for my interview
  14. Better file AR-11 now than never. Historically, failure to file AR-11 on time wasn't an issue. Technically, though it is a deportable offence hence should be taken seriously.
  15. I was on J-1. The decision whether you're subject to 212(e) was made at consulate, before visa was printed. I don't recall CBP writing anything on DS-2019. I see consular officer signature and correct box checked on my DS-2019.
  16. Yes, any doc in foreign language has to be translated. Yes, each translation should include "certification", e.g. sworn statement. I'd recommend using professional online services, they're pretty affordable. Firstly, they do it every day and know how to do it right. Secondly, they're a third party, removing any potential conflict of interest associated with you translating your own docs.
  17. Reach out to J-1 program organizer and request a copy of your DS-2019. Also, for affidavit of support, USCIS prefers tax return transcripts, those are downloadable from IRS. They're shorter and better than providing W-2 and 1040
  18. I'm so glad you're recovering from this toxic relationship!
  19. Many room mates renting a house together have the same address, but don't file taxes together and not considered part of same household. This is not much different.
  20. Then she as a sponsor cannot include her parents in household size. She will be your main sponsor (I-864) and her parents may be joint sponsors (I-864 for one parent and I-864A for other parent if they file taxes together and both work)
