Hi everyone!
How do you know if you are in removal proceedings if you've never been assigned an A number? (Legal entry and visa overstay for many years).. Getting ready to file marriage-based AOS.
Hey everyone,
I’m currently in the process of adjusting status for a green card (pending I-485). I already have my EAD/work permit and Advance Parole travel document approved.
Have any of you been flying domestically within the US recently, especially out of Chicago O’Hare? Did you have any issues with TSA, ICE, or Border Patrol?
I’m trying to decide if it’s generally safe to fly within the US in this situation or if it’s better to avoid it for now. Would really appreciate hearing real experiences.
Approved i130 but denial of I-485. I had entry stamp with visa, which shows place of entry. Case was denied because 1) overstayed visa and 2) was here without lawful status.have currently DACA. What suggestions to proceed
Hi,
Thank you everyone for reading, this site has been truly helpful.
I have my marriage based green card interview next week, I filed 2025 taxes jointly with my partner and there is a balance to pay around 3k, on May 5th I called again requesting a payment agreement as I was elegible for the short term 180 day payment. It was a 1hr call and the agent told me I should be receiving these documents in the mail in about 2 weeks.
As of today, I haven’t received any document from the IRS the website says payment plan pending and it’s not showing anything else I’m afraid of having any issues during the interview because of this.
Has anyone experienced anything related? Or how can I get proof of that agreement asap?
Thank you in advance! 🙏🏻
Why is common sense such a difficult policy within an organization who is a civil offense yet punishment is harsh? Also why employee mistakes are our burden?
We just received our second denial. My husband is incarcerated and was unable to attend the interview so USCIS denied the petition for abandonment even though I attended the interview. my husband is a US citizen. I have spoken to a number of attorneys Three of them have told me that there is no legal way forward for this case One of them suggested that I file an i-130 and select consular processing and hopes that the i-130 gets approved before I get put into removal proceedings? urgently looking forward advice.
My wife and I who are recently married are starting our process. I am a US citizen and i am wondering if we are eligible to submit our marriage based 485 online. We started in the portal, but information on the internet is now saying we must mail. Is that correct?
If we are able to submit online, are we to have 2 different accounts. I should make an account to submit I-130. And she uses her current account to submit 485? Or is it all one account.
Thank you for any help!
Do they adjudicate cases based on PD or reciept date?
My I-485 PD is feb 2023, but its reciept date is apr 2026.
F2A Category. Any comments?
I filed 1I30 and I485 concurrently for my 16 yr old step daughter, my husband has conditional green card and we have been married for 3 yrs. His removal of condition on his green card is still pending but he was given an extension.We have our interview today. I was told I have been approved as her sponsor. Does that affect her approval?
Hello everyone.
I filed my Adjustment of Status package with Forms I-130, I-485, and I-765 together. Today, I received receipt notices only for the I-130 and I-485. USCIS did not charge any fee for the I-765, and when I log into my USCIS online account, I can only see the I-130 and I-485. There is no sign of the I-765 anywhere. They also scheduled my biometrics.
Has anyone experienced this before? Is it normal for the I-765 receipt notice to arrive later, or should I be concerned that USCIS may not have accepted or processed it? What would you recommend I do next?
Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hey people we got a notification that this has been scheduled!! This is our timeline so far on 2026:
First, we got married on March 9th.
Second, we sent the petition on March 26th.
Third, we received the biometrics notice on April 3rd.
Fourth, we completed biometrics on April 23rd.
Fifth, we got the interview notice on May 18th.
And now, on June 26th, I know we’re going to get approved. Amen. I declare it!
Hi everyone,
I wanted to see if anyone is in a similar situation or recently went through this stage, the waiting is honestly the hardest part 😩 I can’t work, drive or fly because I don’t have EAD.
Here’s my timeline:
• Filed I-485 (marriage-based) – Jan 2026
• Biometrics – Feb 2026
• Interview scheduled – March 27, 2026
• Interview went well
• I-130 approved
• RFE issued (medical – just a missing checkmark)
• USCIS received my RFE response – May 4, 2026
Since then… no updates.
I know my RFE was very minor and everything else seems done, but I’m starting to feel anxious just waiting with no movement.
For those who had a similar situation:
How long did it take after USCIS received your RFE to get approved?
Would really appreciate hearing your experiences 🙏
After the interview in Tampa FO our I-130 was approved and they asked us for new medical to send to their office. We did it and than we got different type of interview letter for I-485. Any idea what can we expect? #uscis
Let me know guys if you want to know about my case, I’ll respond all your questions
Has anyone on here been denied a GC because of filing AOS / getting married to a USC on a tourist Visa in less than 90 days, or know of anyone who has? I know it CAN happen, but does it? No misrepresentation or fraud, not lying at the airport, no prior intent. Bonafide relationship/marriage. Just an over abundance of youthful enthusiasm. I've searched through past threads but not seen one. Usually there's something else, like a criminal conviction, a past marriage, or a lengthy overstay.
I'm not encouraging anyone to do this, btw. I'm asking because I want to help someone else.
I got an email on sunday May 17th that there was a change made to my account. I looked and the status changed from case is being processed by uscis to case is still being processed by uscis. There was an FTA0 event when I looked at the API request. Any thoughts? Also, is it weird that I got this email on a sunday?
My lawyers filed my application Feb 27, received by USCIS March 9. Lawyers sent in 2022, 2023 and 2024 taxes. I’ve gotten a RFE from USCIS for the 2025 taxes and issues with one of the USCIS forms. I feel like the lawyers should’ve know at the time of filing that the 2025 taxes should’ve been included and not make any mistakes on the forms. Now I have to pay for them to do the RFE and correct the forms which I shouldn’t have gotten if they did it properly at first. I have to pay them to correct their own mistakes
“Hi everyone, my F4 priority date is April 2008 and I became documentarily qualified (DQ) in October 2025. My case is for the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan. Since the Visa Bulletin is now current for my PD, I wanted to ask if anyone here with a similar case — especially DQ in 2024 or 2025 — has already received their interview letter from Islamabad? How long did it take after becoming current? Any recent timelines would really help. Thanks!”
