Hello, My mother is here on B1/B2 Visa and I have filed her I-130 and I-485 together for her Green Card under Family Category. When she entered US in Aug'20, she was allowed a stay for 6 months, so her current I-94 is expiring in Feb 2021. Would she have to leave the country if the 485 is still pending by Feb 2021? OR she can stay based on her AOS application? Please let me know.

Hello, I'm a US Citizen and I'm planning to file my mother's GC immediately. She is currently in the US on B1/B2 Visa and her I-94 is valid until Feb 2021. I would like to know if I can file her I-485 as well when I file the I-130 as she is physically in the US? Please let me know. Thanks ~V

Thank you. I did realize this when I started filing for her. I guess I will wait few more months. ~V

Hi, My Green Card came in Aug 2014 and My Wife's Green Card came in March 2016. I just became Citizen and have received my Naturalization Certificate and US Passport. Can I now apply for my wife's citizenship as she should now qualify for 3 year clause post GC due to married to US Citizen now? OR do I still need to wait 5 years which would be sometime next year? Please share your thoughts and experiences? ~V

I think its YOU who needs a lesson on Reading English capabilities. Listing all the citations on the form IS KIND of documentation, which you obviously dont understand, so I'm not going to argue here. You, also, obviously DID NOT read the link I posted as that link is the official document from the USCIS. And it DOES NOT say anything about listing all the tickets. So I have no clue what documentation you are referring to. Must be in your mind as USICS documentation (as provided above) DOES NOT say that. I understand very well that a lie could result in the denial HOWEVER not listing something that is not required at the first place is not considered a lie. Its called following the process. Oh and yes.....sigh here as well!

YES IT DOES SAY THAT. You need to read the instructions again at https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/n-400instr.pdf It clearly says ONLY if you are arrested or detained, then you need to provide the documents related to that. Are you telling me that if you dont list all citations, you will not get the citizenship? You do know that speeding tickets are handled by state. These are not federal citations. So why would they need that?

Yes I'm aware of that but the question was regarding speeding ticket and I dont think you need to mention that. N-400 specifically says that you need to report it only when it lead to an arrest.

More importantly, why are you posting in the Citizenship forum when you are still on H1b?

Ahh, cool. Do you know how much time they take before calling for the interview?

Why didn't your wife yelled back? This is no way of treating someone.

There is nowhere in N-400 they ask for the speeding tickets. So where did you see that?

Hi Guys, I just filed an N-400 form for the citizenship and as part of the form, we need to provide the past 5 years travel history which I did. However do we have to keep them informed about the international travel that you do after filing N-400? I dont think so but thought to check. I understand why they ask the travel history in the past 5 years as that is used to determine the Citizenship filing eligibility and since its filed, I dont think further travel needs to be reported. Let me know. ~V

You dont need a marriage certificate for your previous marriage so just carry the divorce decree. However if you re-married, then you need to take the marriage certificate of your current marriage.

Hi, 1.) I got my Green Card on Aug 25th 2014 and I looked at the Early Filing Calculator which shows that I can submit my application on 27th May 2019 (in another couple weeks). However it also says this "You MUST meet all other eligibility requirements when you file". I'm not sure what does that mean and what other things I need to file 90 days early. I have never left US for vacations more than couple weeks since I got the GC. So I presume that I maintained the continuous residence. Is there anything else I need to be aware of? 2.) I know that after the naturalization, we can live outside US but still have to pay taxes here. Does this mean that if we are paying taxes in US, we dont have pay in the country where you are currently living? Because tax-code says that you only pay income tax once. Appreciate the insights! ~v
