HOLA gente de Mexico!

[AnaAndDaniel 0]

Woohoo! Waiver approved! My wife got a ten-year bar in Feb (illegal presence) and we submitted our waiver 02/17 last year. I just got the letter today that our waiver was approved on 12/28. It`s currently taking six to eight weeks from approval date to pick-up appointment, so she should be home around the end of February and her Greencard ought to show up in the mail about two months later.

:dance:

that is excellent news! way to start off the new year!

Yo escuché en las noticias que a partir de ayer iban a empezar a pedir el pasaporte a los ciudadanos americanos para entrar/regresar a los E.U. pero no para entrar a México.

Aunque para dar el permiso/visa de visitante en México siempre han pedido el pasaporte/acta de nacimiento/tarjeta de votar, al menos así me ha tocado.

Hola a todos,

A mi me acaban de aprovar la semana pasada mi I-130 y estoy en espera que la NVC me asigne un número de caso y nos envíe los correspondientes paquetes.

Una pregunta: Tengo siete años de casada, ¿es necesario tener pruebas de nuestro matrimonio, aun después de tanto tiempo casados? ¿Hay posiblidades de que nos las pidan? Hemos vivido juntos todo este tiempo en México.

¡Mil gracias por su ayuda y seguramente tendré muchas dudas para ustedes una vez que me llegue el paquete!

is the alien registration card the "permanent resident card"?

I am suspecting this is a Mexico's Immigration thingee.

Daniel, even though that link is the travel.state.gov site and certainly *should* be the official information, it appears from all of the news reports and links on travel sites that any American, Canadian or Mexican citizens must have a PASSPORT. It's not Mexico's law - it's the US law. If your father is a Mexican citizen and they had let him on the plane, he would not have been allowed BACK into the US without a valid Mexican passport. Apparently the US based Mexican consulates have reported triple the number of passport applicants in the past several months because of this law.

hmm couple of things. yes, what you posted is the US law. and it is being publicized as "you need a passport to come BACK". but upon reading it carefully, it seems to be interpreted to mean LEAVE & RETURN ("travelling [by air] between"). So, my dad, a US PR/Mex Cit, was required to have a passport to board a plane that was travelling from USA to Mex. The text in that site says an alien registration card should suffice.

The "leaving" part was unknown to me. That made me think it was a Mexico law/regulation similar to the USA one we are now implementing. In any case, I now believe it is the US law that was applied to my dad. Do not know if he had his alien registration card with him. I'll find out later today.

It does seem to be interpreted to mean leave and return - hard to know if that's to be prepared upon return or if showing a passport is really necessary in order to leave (seems strange - what if someone had a one way ticket?).

I wonder what the airport personnel would have said if he had showed his alien registration card - I doubt they know that part since it hasn't been well publicized in the news reports. Will they refund the ticket?

si. fotos. acta de matrimonio. acta de nacimiento de hijos. estado de cuentas con ambos nombres,etc... Lo que vas a recibir es el IR1 en vez del CR1 (veo quelo sabes, pero para otros) por ser casada mas de dos anos. Pero aun tienes que comprobar tu matrimonio.

Buena suerte!

yeah, the fact tat they would not let him board w/o passport made me think it was mexico's thing. Why would the US care?

His ticket, he was going on "stand by", so they did not process him due to lack of passport so was not charged. at least that did not hurt.

Hola a todos!

Espero que me pueda colar en este "thread" aunque apenas estoy empezando a juntar todo el papeleo para el tramite de nuestra K1.

Se los agradezco todos los consejos que he leido en el foro, y ojala que en el futuro les pueda ayudar con algunas preguntas asi como uds. ya me han ayudado. Lo malo de este foro es que me da MUCHISIMAS ganas a viajar para ver a mi chavo.

This forum has so many bells and whistles! Hope to one day figure out how to pretty up my area...but I suppose that'll come with time, as it looks like this'll be a long journey.
