Haha, I feel like I've read that somewhere on here, from someone else's post... But I've been looking everywhere and seems like I must have been dreaming!

Sorry for the misleading post! :bonk:

Hi everyone!

Glad to hear from you Brenda2010!!! Glad that everything is going well!

When we renew our Green Card, our passport needs to be valid for at least another 6 months, or something along those lines. I renewed mine because by the time I send in my ROC package, my passport would have only been valid until July. Plus, I wanted to change my name on the passport so it matches the Green Card.

Wow, only half an hour away! Nice! I have to drive two hours to go to the closest office. Not fun...

J&J, let me know when you do send it in, I'll update our chart :)

So my address change documents were received on 10/15/2012, and I still haven't received a notice or confirmation of some sort... And neither has Chris (for being the co-sponsor)... Anything to be worried about? :unsure:

How long did it take you to get your passport back? Starting to freak out now...working around vacation planning and ROC timelines, fun! Not.

It was super quick actually... Don't worry about the passport expiring during the ROC, I was sure I read that somewhere and I cannot find it now... From sending it to receiving it back, it took two weeks to the day, and I was changing my name too. If you're going up during Xmas, you can get your pictures done, that's what I did since I was up during the summer.

It'll be OK, I didn't mean to freak anyone out, I feel dumb now because I can't find the reference... When does your passport expire?

Sorry, super delayed response!! That's great yours only took 2 weeks - how did you send it? USPS? My passport expires June 2, 2013 and my GC's up May 25, so I have time to renew/get it back before/if I need to submit it with the ROC docs. Only thing holding me up at the moment is this house we're trying to buy - closing date keeps moving thanks to the sellers and I don't wanna send it off till we're moved in (if that happens at all, honestly, I'm starting to lose confidence, boooo). Anyway, thanks again Vero, you're so helpful!!

Just so you know you don't need to send in your Canadian passport with ROC, just a copy of front and back of green card, but it would be a good idea to get your passport done before your greencard expires so you have two forms of id that is valid.

Good to see you back AandB :) Everything has been good here, we moved to a different county and been keeping busy ever since. Thanks for the input for my ROC question, i'm being very picky with it, it seems...I just wanna send it out already.

How has married life been for you and still enjoying texas???

Hi AandB! Congratulations on the growing family! Glad things are going well. When I was up in Quebec this past summer, I passed a car from Texas on the highway around the Sherbrooke area, and I thought to myself that it would be crazy if that were you!

I'm getting my documents ready this week/weekend... Not looking forward to the wait... Will anyone be applying for citizenship during the processing the ROC?

I read somewhere there's less paperwork for citizenship if you wait 5 years rather than 3. I think im gonna wait for the 5 years instead!
