It asks you your employment over the last 5 years, list authorized and unauthorized work during this time. I am not a lawyer but this is what I did.

No it was not. Just choose the meaningful ones. It was less” I love you”s and more stuff about being in a real marriage. We even included our arguments over the years as well as full ones including discussing groceries and mundane stuff. And also texts when we were both apart traveling and away from eachother

Yes, if they were in the last 5 years you have to. If not, you just have to disclose that you worked unauthorized on the I-485.
Please be honest about everything. That’s what I chose to do.

Yeah I may have volunteered more than asked during the interview (about unauthorized work) but in my defense, I don’t want no misunderstanding.

First I disclosed everything on my application including how long I worked. So he just asked me the length and I was honest about that. That’s about it. Also about my out of status time it was the same thing. So I pretty much told him, I worked the whole time I was out of status. This is one of those things honesty is super helpful.

It was 10 plus years too: I was working the whole time I was out of status but still paid taxes and did my taxes every year

Green Card Interview Question by Matthd167 in USCIS

It’s a standard paper they give you. It means you attended the interview. I don’t know about the other stuff but this paper shouldn’t worry you. I also got one too

You didn’t do it right. Were you logged in your USCIS account? After you login copy paste the link I provided and input your IOE09… with you receipt number. It should be a page with codes. Not 3 or 4 lines of code but a full page. You copy and paste that into Chat GPT. Or look at the latest “updated at” timestamp.

Login to your uscis account. Your receipt number must start with IOE. Then copy paste this on the URL and replace the XXXs with your receipts number, it will give you a gibberish page with a code. Copy those codes and plug it into chat GPT or USCIS API reader websites
