I-485 approved today, interview waived!

Hello everyone! I want to share our success story because this forum has helped us tremendously. This morning I got the update that our case was approved! (I-485 and I-130). I have adjusted status from F1, my husband is a USC. We sent our application to the Chicago Lockbox on Oct. 17th, 2019. Our first NOAs took longer than a month to come. I did my biometrics on 12/09. Then radio silence until 1/15/2020. That day, we got a RFIE for my birth certificate and a joint sponsor. For the RFIE, they wanted a translation of the birth certificate, which I provided in the first place. However, the translation I provided was done by a translator in my home country who doesn't know how to do a translation for USCIS. They wanted something simpler, so I paid a translator here in the US to do it. My husband is my sponsor and he makes above the poverty line. However, we sent the tax account transcripts instead of the tax RETURN transcripts and so we didn't need a joint sponsor. If you want to know more about this please ask. After we sent the RFIE it took them a week to update to "ready to be scheduled for an interview". Around the same time I got my EAD. They cancelled our interview the day before. A couple of days after we got a RFE from the local field office (nothing updated online) requesting us to send proof of a bona fide relationship before the end of May. Since they cancelled us the day before the interview, we had all our evidence ready. So we sent what we had to the address they gave us. And Today the magic happened! I am happy to answer questions, I just don't want to make this post longer. Good luck to everyone!

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...

NVC Case FE Review note

Hi everyone, my family and I are under the F3 category and we just received a notice from NVC that our documents have been approved and that we are Documentarily Qualified. My only concern is this message that we received today in addition to the acceptance: ​ " [Name of petitioner] does not meet the minimum income requirement to sponsor the intending immigrants for this case. The consular officer will make a decision regarding this requirement at the time of the interview. For more information, please visit https://www.uscis.gov/i-864p . To avoid delays, an additional Affidavit of Support Form I-864 for a joint sponsor may be submitted." ​ We already have a petitioner and a household sponsor (the household sponsor's income is above the required level), but still unsure why we received this. Has anyone else received this message? All of our documents say "Approved" on NVC. Does this mean we have to find another sponsor? Can we show the consular officer our ...
