Establishing proof of US residency for five years help

[chris234 0]

Hello,

I'm writing in regards to a case for my mother and father in law. My DCF for my wife is all done for and her and I have been in the US for about a year. My mother in law is a non USC, and my father in law is a USC, and they recently gave birth to a child while abroad and awaiting their pending DCF application.

Mother in laws visa was approved and is being mailed soon. The infant has an Australian passport from his mother, and is entitled to a US passport as well, since his father is a USC.

The embassy told them they need documentation showing the father has lived in the US for five years, which he has, and I'm wondering if anyone has any advice or tips on what is easiest to provide. any experiences to share?

This came upon them suddenly, and she has tickets booked for the 20th of january so they are going to expedite the application if he can get the stuff together..

thanks

Yearly tax forms showing a US address,

A signed leased or mortage

A Job in the US

School records, ie high school, college, primary school

His parents tax records showing that they reside in the US for 5 years

This is just a few that will give creditability to the fact that the father has lived in the US for five years. Any one of these would work.

All of the proof - along with -

a cover letter of explanation of a timeline (where, when) in list format.

Good Luck !

Thanks everyone!

they had a family relative back in the states go to the schools and get all of his transcripts and tax forms as well. Thank goodness for small towns. I'm sure in some larger cities you couldn't just go and get these records because you say you're related! Apparently they've been faxed in already.
