  1. Due to the gravity of a denied I-751 (USCIS no longer considers you a Lawful Permanent Resident) I would highly recommend that you consult a reputable immigration attorney. Preferably one who is a member of AILA.
  2. I second this.... I have seen reports in other forums of people getting refused under 212(f). Not 100% sure those are accurate either.
  3. Go to the interview with the assumption that it will be a combo interview but it wouldn't hurt to upload the I-751 receipt notice and request one
  4. There are lots of petitioners from July 2025 who are still waiting. USCIS will often start adjudicating a bit ahead to keep their average time to adjudication lower than it really is. Having gone through this myself I'll say this; be patient, stop comparing on sites that show you "the cases around you" (because they can only give you data from people who also use their site) and use this time to prepare and become an "A Student" on the steps to come so that you will not stumble because you didn't know something.
  5. Yeah I second this.... The US Embassy is not going to ask for police clearances for the US Citizen petitioner but there is a very good chance they will ask at the CFO for your FBI history report.
  6. And no they cannot got to the issued stage unless they have the passport because they have to place the visa in the passport.
  7. From experience with Jaycel's process in the Philippines, her status stayed as "Approved" until the administrative processing was complete so it appears that it can be both "Approved" and in AP at the same time. The AP is not completed until the status changes to "Issued".
  8. This is how I did it for Jaycel's I-129F petition with the exception of the N/A. If a section didn't apply, I wrote by hand a big N/A over the whole section
  9. Thank you for clarifying.... I misread that
  10. If the consular officer didn’t indicate that something else was needed, it may just be that your fiancée’s case is in Administrative Processing. Many Embassies put the status into “Refused” while AP is being conducted
  11. Just upload the new Tax Return Transcript from the 2025 tax year. You do not need to update the entire I-864. When you go to the "Unsolicited Documents" function on the I-485 in the portal, it asks you to tell them what type of evidence you are uploading. Use the option for I-864 evidence. This is what we did when we had our updated 2024 Tax Return Transcript available
  12. For the I-134, if your income exceeds the requirement, you do not have to provide information about assets (bank accounts, etc.)
  13. Notify USCIS in writing at the service center address on the bottom left corner of your approval notice that you are withdrawing the petition and then find the Immigrant Visa Unit support request mechanism for the embassy where it was scheduled, give them the NVC case number and tell them that you are contacting USCIS to withdraw the petition
  14. Yes... Section 9 Eligibility & Inadmissibility or something like that. All the Yes/No questions at the end of the I-485
  15. New policy is that they are not able to reuse biometrics for N-400 applications. All Naturalization applicants have to have a new biometrics collection
  16. You won't get an invoice number for K-1 because there is no need for you to log in. I would do another PI and ask them to confirm that they have your correct email addresses and provide them yours and your fiancée's email addresses. This will flow down to the embassy when they send the case to them and will ensure that you both get any and all email notifications from them.
  17. Good deal! What does the case status say when you check it on CEAC?
  18. Provide paystubs and, if you can get one, an employment verification letter to establish your current income
  19. USCIS no longer accepts checks - It's either Form G-1450 - Credit Card Authorization or Form G-1650 ACH Debit Authorization
  20. The first thing it is going to ask you to upload is the I-751 Form which you should fill out, print sign and scan into a PDF to do this upload step. Upload the signed form (signed by you and your spouse). Then you will upload evidence separately
  21. This is fantastic advice! We brought 2 portable filers with us to our interview with just about every piece of evidence we had generated since we had met just in case.
  22. You should make sure that the 9 digit number on the IV that you are inputting is actually the A-Number. Are you using the number that says "Registration Number?"
  23. For Immigrant Visas they no longer issue the sealed envelope - It's all done electronically. Are you using the A Numbers that were provided on the I-130 approval notice? Are they the same as the A-Numbers on your parent's visas?
