CRBA

[Capital Z 51]

-Hi,

 

 

I am in need of help from those who recently went through the CRBA process at the Islamabad embassy. I am in the process of gathering documents regarding providing evidence of 5 years of residency and would like to know what documents you guys used to prove it. I only have 4 years of tax transcripts from the IRS website. And also does a wage statement from the IRS website can be used in place of an actual W-2 since I only have actual W-2 for the years 2019,2020 and 2021.

1) do you have school records?

2) medical records?

No i dont have any school records and In terms of medical record I might have my annual physical examination record from United health insurance through my employer or COVID 19 vaccination record

1) Annual exam record + covid vax is good. 

2) Did you not receive your GC through spouse? Why don't you apply for CRBA through spouse?

Yes I did but that marriage ended in divorce. I have a child from my second marriage. It also brings another question I wad naturalized in 2021 and my child was born in 2023. Do I even qualify for CRBA

Response deleted.  I misread your dates of naturalization and child's birth.  File for CRBA.

Yes, you qualify.

 

You don’t have to be a citizen the entire time required for CRBA, but you do have to be a citizen at child’s birth.

Thread has been moved to the CRBA subforum, to be among similar threads.

Thank you I appreciate it. I was under the impression that I have to be a citizen for 5 years before the birth if my child.

Here it is.  Print it off and bring it to CRBA appointment.

Highlight this section:

 

Physical presence in the United States counts for purposes of citizenship acquisition under INA 301 or INA 309, regardless of whether it was pursuant to a legal admission.

Hi i did CRBA for my son at the karachi like 10 months ago and these were the document i submitted

 

- Last 4 years of tax transcripts

-last 7 years of school

-all of mine and my wifes nikah nama

- my sons pakistan birth certificate and hospital birth certificate

- 2 passports size photos of my son

- completed application of ds-2029

-completed application of ds-11

-my wifes pakistan ID and passport

-215$ is the CRBA fee

And also in your case since you were divorced you would have to give them your divorce certificate. You also NEED 5 YEARS of US presence and at least 2 if these years have to be after age 14, you can submit irs transcripts, school/college transcripts, old passports, and pay stubs from your work. I would recommend you go to Karachi for the CRBA it is much faster to get an appointment there, when i applied for my son i received his USA passport and CRBA in 3 weeks.

I would prefer going to the karachi consulate but since you already have interview scheduled at islamabad than i guess its to late for that, good luck let me know if you have any questions.
