i wouldn't worry about it USCIS are very good at not updating info, for example the I-129F that my husband filed to bring me to the US in May 2008 is still showing pending online, yet we have recievced a letter saying it was approved, got my K1 visa, moved to the US, got married, adjusted...
It up to you when you change your name, just bear in mind you will need to send the UK embassy your marrage certificate as well as you old passport. I sent mine after AOS was over so that i had ID in my married name. Just also to make you aware it takes about 6 weeks to get a UK passport issued...
Firstly Congrats on obtaining your citizenship and engagement!
Can I ask whether your fiance's J1 visa is subject to the two year home residency. If so you will need to file for a waiver, as well as complete AOS. (Just asking as if you don't file a waiver and its needed it could really hold...
File you I485 asap, you will find SSA will not change your name over until all your immigration documents are in you married name, and some DMV's (like Florida) won't do name changes before you SSC name is changed. (just make sure you use you married name when you file and explain that you visa...
I never have this problem in Europe as i am a british citizen, so can roam with passport alone, however have investigated traveling to Europe with my husband.
For info on schengen visa go to http://www.schengenvisa.cc/. Note not all EU countries participate. (for example if you want to visit...
I can't see the utility bill being a problem, especially as some countys will only put one name on the actual bill. (ours is one of them, and we've tryed to get both our names on the bill as it will be helpful when we remove conditions and they have refused point blank.)
its not a good idea for her to leave until her green card is approved. The same thing happened to me (my grandfather died earlier this year before my AP had been processed.) In the end they set up a webcam so i could still attend the funeral, so maybe this is a possible option.
You can file I-130 and I-485 for each parent whilst they are still in the USA (if you choose this option they cannot leave without advance parole (AP) until they have their green card.
Alternatively, if they want to return home for a while, you can file I130 once they have left and then they...
with the police document it better to be safde than sorry and send it it seems to depend on the officer reviewing if they ask for it. One of my friends got an RFE for it last year, and he has no criminal background. (I came in on the fiance visa and was required to get it.)
you need to submit a copy of the I-130 approval notice if you have previously filed it. If you haven't you have to submit the I-130 and I-485 applications together.
she shouldn't have any problems, i did it whilst mine was pending. i would however advise her to make sure she has evidence of ties to her home country to prove she has to return at that time. ( a return flight ticket + rental lease, or deed for home, car titles, loans, work schedule and...
yes - the us embassy in your home country should be able to point you in the direction for getting one. (I found the information when i got my UK one on the embassies website.)
I assume you are applying for the Green Card for the 1st time. You need to send the following all together in the inital packet to Chicago.
Completed I-130 with fees.
Proof of petitioners US Citizenship
Copy of marriage certificate
passport photo of both yourself and your spouse...
