No, the last time she entered she was an F-1 student. She hasn't left the country at all since 2015.

Once we apply, we're definitely gonna request an appointment for one. In a previous comment you mentioned her travel document is her green card and A number. In the section where they ask about the travel document, it reads as if they're referring to the travel document that her I-94 and last entry were associated with. That's why we thought it might be her old passport. Should we fill out her I-94 information and last entry with regards to the F-1 visa she used then, and fill out the travel document as her current green card?

She was a minor so she doesnt have much paperwork from her last case. It was mostly done by her guardians/lawyer. So, we also think the AOS would just be 'easier'

After all the advice, we did get started on filing an AOS. Just waiting on the medical stuff and taking the passport style photos. However, we have not been married 2 years. So, we'll just have to deal with the I-751 when it happens. Our biggest concern right now is ensuring she doesn't have any problems taking out student loans/qualifying for aid from her school because the scholarship she received is only available to permanent residents and citizens. We want to apply for AOS so that we can at least show her case is being processed and she can remain staying here as an LPR

I see, thank you for clarifying. Should we only file an I-485 with the things you listed, or also co-file the I-130/I-130A/I-693(Medical)/I-864(Affidavit of Support)?

We are waiting on the phone call to mainly find out if she still has LPR status. Her case was denied, but she never received notice of removal proceedings or a judge decision to revoke her LPR status. If she still has her LPR status, it would be much easier to file an I-751. Are we mistaken with anything here? If you don't think we should wait, should we still file the I-751 then?

Sorry, do you mean we should be able to apply because there is a new basis (spouse of USC)? Or is it no longer the case because the decision has been changed?

Thank you for the advice. We did call USCIS and the agent wasn't able to see her current status, so they put us on the call back list. The agent was able to see the I-290B decision of denial, but they said they could not see a denial for the I-751. Is this odd? We do have papers from USCIS stating decision of denial, but apparently it is not on the system? We also don't see the denial on her online case status. The last thing on there is that the case was transferred to another office, but then no other updates (no interview invite as they're stating either). But in the meantime we'll be preparing the paper work for the I-130/I-485 and the I-751 just so everything is ready to file as soon as we hear back from the tier 2 agent.

Does she still have a green card in this case? Her 2-year green card has already expired. During the years when her I-751 was being processed, she received extension letters and I-551 stamps. Her last stamp expired and her I-751 was denied. We were under the impression that she is not an LPR. This is also why the lawyer we spoke with said to file fast since she's kind of in the grey area right now, and it's the reason why they don't send an NTA immediately in case you will be filing a new case.

She was never sent an NTA. We have also been checking from this website we saw recommended here (https://acis.eoir.justice.gov/en/) and she has no proceedings for her A number. We talked to a lawyer and they said it can take time sometimes. We can't afford a lawyer currently, and we don't have the time to save up to hire one. She is still in the US. She just completed her degree and she starts another degree program this August. So, we're hoping to file soon. Do you have any idea how long it might take if we request an FOIC?

May I ask why you asked about it? Just wondering if you think it'll be helpful

Are you referring to the freedom of information act? is that a requirement? I wasn't aware

Hello. My spouse and I were engaged while she was a green card holder. I'm a US citizen. We have now gotten married, and I'm trying to fill out an I-130 for her, but we're having a problem with some of the questions (specifically the ones relating to her travel documents and their expiration date, etc). The reason is because she came to the U.S. with an F1 visa for middle school (~10-11 years ago). Then she received a family-based green card. Later, she applied for an I-751 while still a minor (17 years old). Her case took a long time and eventually she was sent a denial letter for missing an interview. However, she never received an interview letter, so she filed for an I-291B. Unfortunately, this appeal was also denied, because her lawyer applied under the wrong condition. With all this information, I have the following questions: - Is her F1 visa the 'travel document' referred to in the I-130 form (What is the beneficiary's Travel Document number?)? - Should we enter her old passport's number used for her F1 visa, or her current passport for this question "What is the beneficiary's Passport number?" ? FYI, I'm gonna write a cover letter to explain her immigration history to avoid any misunderstandings. I'm gonna also provide copies of her F-1 and green card documents to show she was always here legally and never put in removal proceedings. Would appreciate any other advice as well. Thanks.
