Traveling back from Puerto Rico
Has anyone traveled back from PR since Trump became a president? I hear different stories. Online it says that you only need real ID but it also says you might go through CBP.
I went to USVI in January and CBP control was mandatory for all travelers and I had to show all my US documents (Advance Parole, EAD and real ID)
No update after fingerprint
is it normal to get no updates on the case status online after fingerprinting? I applied for change of status on September 27, 2024, got my biometric on October 21, 2024. my status changed to “Case is being actively reviewed by uscis “. should I expect to see something like “biometric scheduled”, “biometric received “ on my case status?
I-90
Hey! I recently got my green card approved and got it about 2 weeks later. However, they made a mistake. They used my maiden last name instead of my married one 🙄 and yes I filled all documents with my married last name and sent marriage license. I even got receipt notices and other mail from them with the married last name and then BAM! Has anyone had any experience with this? I hear the wait time for them to fix their mistake (to send back new card after I-90) is very long.

15 oct 2023. got IL. Consular Processing. End.
hi all! i am more than happy to say my journey is coming to the end. its been 16 months and every step was faster than i expected.
USCIS took 15 months.
NVC took 2 weeks.
after DQ i got interview letter in 2 weeks. and my interview is on April 17.
everything was smoothly and faster than i planned. totally will be 18 months. (i think its great when i think only USCIS step is taking 16.5 months now.) i hope every case will be smooth and fast.
No lawyer, No RFE for any step.
