Travelling to the US for 4-5 months on a visitor's visa

Hello everyone,

I am planning a long trip to the US to visit family and friends. I have a long association with the US considering I studied there and there are many people I am going to stay with. I have a job in my home country which has been remote since the pandemic. I will be working my current job while I am in the US and can show proof for it. I also have healthy savings/salary and can afford my trip, and considering I will be staying with family in different parts of the US during this time my living expenses will be minimal. I also have a project I HAVE to return to my home country for and will have proper proof to show that I definitely need to be back for it.

I get anxious when I read posts here that warn against staying in the US for that long. Since Covid, there have been deaths, new births, etc in my family and this is the only time I have to visit them. It's really important for me that I do this and take this time because I have been working nonstop through the pandemic and this is the only real chance I have had in a long time because of my professional commitments.

Please do let me know if there's anything I need to bring in addition to bank documents, paperwork showing my employment, wedding invites, etc that will help me make this happen.

If you think I should be cautious about anything, please do let me know! Thank you!

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 ...
