Evidence of one year physical presence for Green Card application
If you stay one year after asylum grant at USCIS before applying for I-485 green card, is your asylum approval letter and I-94 enough evidence to proof your one year physical presence in United State or you need to include additional evidence, anyone had this experience in the past? was your application approved or USCIS send you RFE?

Thanks @betababy July @vi_34567 345 the ask is who wait for one year before applying, did you get RFE or not if you include only the approval letter and I-94

@Bee Col trust me it’s highly unlikely to get i485 approved before one year. There are significant delays. But include everything you can in your application.

as vi stated include all documents that can prove your annual physical presence in the US if you haven't applied yet. if you did already upload it in the unsolicited documents slot in your uscis account before they take any decisions on your case. best luck to you

you do NOT need to submit that, unless USCIS will RFE it.
your i-94 and other uscis is enough.
it’s an issue ONLY if you have left the country multiple times.

I waited a year before sending my I-485 it’s better for you to demonstrate one year presence before they send you an rfe asking for it and then it will take you months !!! to get approved

@vi_34567 345 pretty much never happens. you are sending proof of yiur status where the date is stated.
that requirement is for other petitions….anyway

@vi_34567 345 I waited one year before applying I 485 , now 6 months of waiting no any update

@i l if I’m saying it’s better to send everything before they ask for it it’s because it happened to my principal give them everything before they ask and make it longer for you
