my AOS timeline for a Green Card through marriage

hey all. yesterday i finally received my green card and i want to share my timeline with yall, so that it may give some people an idea of how long things are taking. I am also posting it here because, honestly, some of the people in group answered about a thousand questions from me when i was filling out my application. so for that, thank you <3

Timeline: - My husband and I married in Nov.2019. He is a US citizen and i was a DACA recipient-> which i believed helped speed up the process. -April 2020: filled out and submitted application -May 2020: two weeks later USCIS received and accepted application and payment -August 2020: Received letter from USCIS stating that my DACA fingerprints will be use for the AOS process as well. -October 2020: Received notice that my case was ready for interview and the interview would be scheduled to my nearest USCIS field office. in my case this is OKC field office. -Mid December 2020: received noticed that my interview has been schedule for begining of February 2021. -First week of of february 2021: attended interview. two weeks later received noticed that the greencard case has been approved and will be produced. a week later, the green card arrived :)

The whole process took exactly 10 months. I submitted application 04/26/2020 and received green card 02/26/2021. Luckily, i had no setbacks throughout the whole process and everything i submitted seemed to be enough, since i never received any RFEs.

The interview for me was a breeze, literally. it only took about me 15 mins or even less. The agent simply walked me through my application and that was it. she did not ask any additional questions. At the end of the interview she told us " here at our office we will be doing a training session for form I-944. Once we complete that training i will finish your application and if need any extra information i will send an RFE"

The type of proof that we sent in included things like: - Marriage,birth certificates. -photos of wedding (we had a small wedding, no reception). -rent lease. - joint taxes. -joint bank statements. -car insurance. - trip photos. -utility bills. -other bills showing same residency.

I hope this post can help some of yall, like some of yall helped me.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

Navigating the U.S. Family-Based Immigration Visa Process

For families hoping to immigrate to the United States, the visa process can be overwhelming. With so much uncertainty and complexity involved, it's important to have a clear understanding of the steps and requirements. The first step is determining which family-based immigration visa applies to you. There are two types: immediate relatives and family preference. The former includes spouses, parents, and unmarried children under the age of 21 who are U.S. citizens. Family preference visas are for more distant relatives such as siblings, married children of U.S. citizens, and spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents. Once you know which visa you're eligible for, you'll need to file a petition with USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services). This step requires providing documentation such as birth certificates and marriage licenses, as well as proof of your relationship to the U.S. citizen or permanent resident sponsoring you. After your petitio...
