Good luck!

Congrats. Its normal for USCIS to fuck up the address change process. I would say that you got extremely lucky in that they seemed to correct the mistake quickly. I've known people who've had to wait 6 months for that mistake to be corrected!

Those aren't checkboxes, they're bullet points. Bring everything listed on that form.

Yes, its totally normal. Online case status doesn't change when you get your interview letter, you don't even get a LUD. Did you apply for EAD? If not, then sometimes FP can be done on or after the interview.

OK. He can file for a Green Card no problem, with the minor caveat that there may be an issue with his intent. If he came to the USA on a B2 intending to file for a Green Card, that's not allowed, but if the decision to marry and stay was made after he arrived, he should be fine. He'll go out...

2 questions: Is your fiancee in the USA right now, and I assume you are the USC he's going to marry?

You need AP until you have a Green Card in your hands.

Give me strength. Lying is not an option. She's married so should indicate as such.

It shouldn't officially, but unofficially it might cause him to get more scrutiny upon entering the USA. I-130 doesn't establish immigration intent in itself, but it might cause a red flag, and your brother should be able to prove he doesn't intend to remain in the USA to the CBP officer. Where...

I can only see that working with USCIS if they rekindle the marriage. If the wife just wants to move to the USA and has no intention of acting like a wife to the sponsor, then I can't see USCIS going for it.

Yes, my point was, don't volunteer the information that your EAD is expiring. They might not notice, and it doesn't harm your AOS application in any way to work "illegally".

That is fine, remember that your wife has to be the sponsor however, your income can be included on the form as you are married to her, but her name needs to be on the form. You should include both your and your wife's returns if you are including your income. Which tax return would the 3rd...

Yeah, good point. If your OPT runs out in June, then you can officially legally work (a word of advice though, don't tell your employers about your EAD running out, just continue working if they don't notice). Sadly you can't get EAD expedited, it takes around 90 days, no exceptions except for...

This is an interesting case, I'm not going to try to intrepret the law here, but I'll give my gut feeling. The marriage was clearly not originally for immigration benefit, but the person is exploiting a long dead marriage to get a green card. I would personally believe that USCIS would not...

A certified copy is a copy of the original birth certificate issued by an official government agency, in the USA that would be most likely the county records office where the person was born. Usually this is a colorful piece of paper with a photocopy of the original birth cerficate from their...

I quote from the I-864 instructions part where it lists what income can be included on the affidavit: So actually, it looks like you're OK! :)

I believe the benefitiary's (i.e. foriegn spouse) income can only be used as part of the affidavit if they live with the petitioner (US citizen spouse), as it can they can then be counted as a household member. If you don't live together this might cause issues. Even then, only have 1 year of...

No waiver required. Just make sure you don't leave the country until USCIS has sent you your green card.

Read my post above and be less perplexed.

Could be a couple of things: 1. You haven't pass FBI namecheck. This can hold up approval even though the interviewer otherwise thinks you're fine. 2. The interviewer isn't senior enough to approve on the spot. Sometimes they have to go back to their supervisors for final approval. It doesn't...
