    MM/YYYY: October 2025 Location: California, US Business / organization: Target Check type: Age verification Reason: Alcohol purchase Result: Failure Details: Got asked for ID by a very old lady when purchasing alcohol. Gave my GE card. She couldn't understand where to find DOB and even attempted scanning the back. After that she asked what my DOB was and I had to shout it in front of everybody so she could hear it. Even though I got the alcohol, the ID wasn't used.

    I checked the box too. Nothing happened. You need to get appointment at SSA and go there to update your status. Here's whole explanation:
  3. OldUser
    Yes. Status will change, for example she'd be invited for biometrics
  4. OldUser
    That's right, you can ignore it. It never shows accurate info.
  5. OldUser
    I see your point. It's about the definition of the word "immigrant".
  6. OldUser
    Congratulations! I recommend updating SSA with your new status and getting a US passport (large book, because it's a free upgrade!)

    Just scan all pages.

    Be ready for everything. It can either. Be ready to be interviewed on both I-130 and I-485. Hopefully in one interview. I was asked both relationship as well as admissibility questions. What are you waiting for? Should have started yesterday. Keep collecting until both of you are citizens.

    You don't need to do name change in every jurisdiction. You changed your name in Nigeria based on marriage. As long as this was done legally, you just need to get a new US passport with married name. You don't need to go through name change process in the US. Your current married name IS your legal name.

    Yes, it's normal. Each case is individual. It's processed by different people and adjudicated by different officers. Cases are not processed on strictly first in first out basis. For example, my friend filed I-751 two weeks after me. Got approval like 4-5 months earlier than me. Same age, same occupation, same marital history, same nationality etc. You just never know.

    Even if they realize it, do you geniunely think a federal employee is going to reward such method?
  12. OldUser
    Congrats! There is no set timeline, but most filers get decision within days or weeks. The good news is, after 120 days following the interview, you can sue USCIS for decision

    Optional, but highly recommended in 2025 given all that's happening immigration wise. No

    So those 20% are of the value, the 80% not so much. You want photos with other people, not just two of you. Pictures with family, friends etc show your marriage is known in your circles. 3-4 images per page.

    Rather 1900s the least. Maybe even early 1800s tech, cause telegraph was available in 1840s!

    Credit cards are accepted, but occasionally charges get flagged as fradulent. ACH is a more preferred method in my opinion, but you need to make sure you have funds in account.

    This is case to case and depends on officer. I would always prepare for a tough interview, officers are not friends even if they appear friendly. Preparing for worst and hoping for best doesn't hurt when it comes to USCIS in my opinion.
  18. OldUser
    I agree with this

    This depends on where sponsor lives, what's their household size, how many dependants they have and whether they sponsored anybody else who is still a green card holder. Details here: https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p

    Sure, it should be sufficient. 3 years of marital evidence is good.
  22. OldUser
    I'd provide some of those, at least new evidence.
  23. OldUser
    Can get SS card in maiden name before marriage and then update it to married name in the future. Before chaging name, make sure to check how easy it is to change documents like passport in the country of origin. If name change there is too difficult or impossible, then consider whether the name change is the right move at all. Having name Anna Smith in home country and Anna Brown in the USA is possible, but not ideal for travel, legal and other purposes. It's nice to have consistent name documented in different jurisdictions.

    Not needed Who's? Applicant's not needed. US citizen spouse's? Not needed Not needed Good Hopefully I-751, there is no 1-751 Bank statements, utilities, some other proof of joint marital stuff?
  25. OldUser
    There is no co-sponsors. Petitioner will always be the main sponsor, but can have joint sponsor. Joint sponsor should have enough income alone to support immigrant. You can't add main and joint sponsor's income to qualify.
