  1. Yes, of course. Bring original docs to the interview, including birth certificates, passports, citizenship certificates, marriage and divorce certificates, court records etc. You may be never asked to show some of those. But you need them at the interview.
  2. Have you tried playing lottery or slots in Vegas given your luck? 😃
  3. Give it few days, sometimes updates are not immediate. But not many December 2024 filers got already approved or will be approved any time soon.
  4. Normal. Sometimes these are "ghost updates" with no real changes. I received those before. My understanding, email may be sent everytime somebody opens and closes a case, even if no action was taken.
  5. Also, eTA may or may not be needed starting April 2nd
  6. This is nothing to worry about. I received several of these for various types of cases. I call them "ghost updates". I suspect every time somebody opens and closes the case for review, system generates an email saying "Action was taken on your case". Even if no changes were made.
  7. It shouldn't, but it could Bad idea. FedEx loses things all the time
  8. Is your visa category current? If it was sponsorship by sibling for example, we're talking about decadea of waiting.
  9. I would be careful believing any promises by officer.
  10. Your entire immigration history is verified again during N-400. Marriage may be required to be proved again at this stage. If you spoke to a lawyer before applying they could have suggested not to apply or how to prove your marriage on spot at the interview. I'd start consulting a lawyer already, before you're given RFE deadline or things develop further in negative direction. Sometimes counteractions take time, which you may not have in the future. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
  11. Anything more official than that? You'll probably have to do some work contacting court and getting something on paper.
  12. Sorry to hear it. Yes, your fears are not ungrounded. Are you planning to consult an immigration lawyer? You're in a tricky situation.
  13. Yes, just read prior messages in this thread...
  14. The answer is Yes. What proof do you have? I'd imagine for first one, you have some court decision on paper? For second, proof of payment of some sort?
  15. I personally never went to secondary when travelling on expired GC and extension letter using GE. Thank you for your data point!
  16. File a case / add new case? There should be a button when you're in MyUSCIS account
  17. It's your call whether to risk it for vacation. Technically, you should be allowed into the US. You may be briefly placed in secondary when returning on advance parole. Good luck!
  18. Yes, if she meets physical presence, marital union, continuos residence and good moral character requirements.
  19. Have you paid the fee? Typically arrives within 90 days
  20. Yes, the process is to file N-400 form and provide bonafide marriage evidence: 1) Joint tax return transcripts for 3 years 2) Evidence of financial comingling (joint bank account statements, joint assets) 3) Evidence of living together for the past 3 years (joint lease, or joint mortgage) 4) Other proof of marriage 5) Current marriage certificate 6) If you or spouse were divorced before, provide divorce certificates You can file N-400 after being resident for 3 years and married to US citizen for 3 years (if you lived together all 3 years) and if you didn't have any trips over 6 months in the last three years and spent more than 18 months in the US in the last 3 years.
  21. General provision. You can file for citizenship after being a resident for 5 years. Even if you are married to US citizen or got GC through marriage. I filed under 5 year rule, because my I-751 was approved and I was eligible. I could file under 3 year rule, but didn't need to involve my spouse at this point.
  22. Common. Even with approved I-751, if filing N-400 under 3 year rule, you still may need to prove marriage. USCIS needs to check marriage two more times (I-751 and N-400). It will happen no matter what in one form or the other.
  23. Totally understandable. Hang in there!
  24. That's great, congrats, make sure to take child's birth certificate to interview. Do you have utility bills in both names? Maybe car or medical insurance listing both names?
