Got many questions on filing from abroad. Insight into any/all of these questions would be a great help:
Background:
- US conditional resident permit holder (green card) via marriage to US citizen. I-750 filing required to remove conditions within 90 days of card expiration date.
- Living abroad with spouse since acquiring green card. Trips to US every 4-5 months with no issues till date.
Concerns:
- Filing I-751 from abroad 90 days in advance
- Evidence of bonafide marriage: Last 2 year joint tax returns show foreign address
- Willing to travel to US for biometrics, but preferably only after 45 days of filing
Questions:
- Should the US mailing or foreign address be used? Foreign address is more honest but may cause application to be put on hold unless accompanied by a letter stating willingness to travel.
- Submit Joint Tax Filings? Is it necessary or are photos, joint travel itineraries, joint bank statements, joint credit card accounts, mirrored beneficiary selections, and affidavits likely to be sufficient?
- How soon is the biometrics appointment usually scheduled? Is it worth requesting an appointment after a certain date, or is it likely to raise red flags? If worth it, what reasons have worked in the past?
Thanks!
