Hi. Did you ever get this worked out? Did you use a lawyer? Or did you do it by yourself?

Hey guys. Asking for a friend. She went to her citizenship interview in Charlotte, NC, and a black gentleman, last name Jackson, interviewed her. (I give these details for informational purposes only.) She passed everything except "understanding English". So he said they will re-test her on her English understanding. How does this work? She passed reading, writing, and speaking. (Here's some background information): My friend said that everything went fine, but at the end of the interview, the officer apparently asked her to stay seated until he comes back, but somehow she understood something else, and she started to get up and follow him, and he got upset and "I said stay seated." And she said "I'm sorry, I just got nervous." And then he came back and said "I'm not going to pass you on English understanding." And gave her this paper. (See attached) Anyone ever encounter something like this? What happens on the 2nd go-round? She just appears for some chit-chat with the officer? Thanks.

What do your responses “lawyer” and “lawyer up” mean? Sorry, I’m not good at interpreting one-word or two-word answers. Thanks.

Hello. He entered the last time (and never went back) in 2018. He got married in 2019. They knew each other from back when he still would enter temporarily with B1b2BCC. I believe he overstayed because she became pregnant and he married her and she could not work due to childbirth and other health situations, and he didn’t want to abandon his family. You know… circumstances.

Sorry for not clarifying. Yes, applicant is a b1/b2 border-crossing overstay… and he is in USA. No EWI’s or anything out of the ordinary.

Hi all. Husband is visa-overstay, married LPR, she filed I-130 in 9/2021, hasn't been approved yet. (As of January 2022, USCIS is "actively reviewing" it) In the interim, she became US Citizen. Can she just go ahead and send in the i485, i765, i864, i693 (the whole AOS packet)... along with her Naturalization certificate in order to adjust husband's status? Thanks!
