    Documents for Citizenship

    It's probably talking about a state driver's license or state non-driver ID. A green card holder is not required to have a state ID, so if she doesn't have one that's fine.

    Process to convert from L2 to B1 visitor visa

    Visa is for entry. If she doesn't need to enter, then she doesn't need a visa. If she wants to change status inside the US for her current stay, she can file I-539 for Change of Status. By the way, B1 is for business visitors; B2 is for personal visitors. If you are maintaining L1 status, there...

    Change of Status for F2 | Transition from F1 to H1

    She can legally stay in the US while her Change of Status application is pending, even if she goes out of status in the meantime. If the Change of Status is approved, they will almost certainly backdate the period of admission of the new I-94 to start on Oct 1, to match the H1b's start.

    Working on H4 EAD While Renewal is Pending

    You do not have automatic extension of work authorization if you do not have a valid H4 I-94. So if your I-94 is expiring, you cannot work beyond that, until your Extension of Stay is approved. However, you can leave the US and re-enter on your H4 visa and a copy of your spouse's new H1b...

    Dual citizen DV eligibility and AOS

    There are no issues. Visas are only for entry, and it's normal that Canadian citizens don't need a visa to enter the US as a nonimmigrant. Your I-94 showing your status is what matters for your status in the US.

    Pregnant F4 Visa Dependent

    from U4U to green card

    You are not a refugee. You are a parolee. You guys need to file I-130 and I-485 for you to do Adjustment of Status.

    False claim to U.S. Citizenship

    False claim of citizenship applies to any purpose under federal or state law. The I-9 is specifically included as one of these purposes. 8 USC 1182(a)(6)(C)(ii)(I) says: where 8 USC 1324a is about employment authorization and I-9. What doesn't make sense from your description is why the person...

    F1 student visa that married with greencard

    No. Since you already plan to file I-485 during the stay after your return rather than leave after a temporary stay, you should not enter on F1 visa. This is true regardless of whether you have a pending I-130. If you plan to leave and apply for an immigrant visa abroad, then it should be okay...

    You should not enter the US on F1 visa with preconceived intent to file I-485 during that stay. So it's probably best if you don't leave.
