DCF in Italy -- husband has dual Iranian/Australian citizenship

[hislizzy 0]

My husband and I have been married for 4 years, and are both legal residents on Italy. I am a US citizen; DH has both Iranian and Australian citizenships. (Our daughters are already American citizens, of course.) I am having a hard time understanding whether or not we qualify for DCF. Here is what the Mission to Italy website says:

"Filing Immigrant and Fiancé(e) Visa Petitions for Residents of Italy

American citizens resident in the United States, legal permanent residents of the United States, and employers based in the United States who wish to file immigrant or fiancé(e) visa petitions for residents of Italy should contact their nearest Department of Homeland Security-Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services office in the United States. American citizens resident in Italy who wish to file immigrant visa petitions for residents of Italy should contact the Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, United States Embassy, Consular Building, Via Veneto 121, 00187 Rome, Tel (39) 064674-2190, Fax (39) 064674-2920. American citizens resident in Italy who wish to file fiancé(e) visa petitions for residents of Italy should contact an office of the Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, in the United States.

Filing Immigrant and Fiancé(e) Visa Petitions for Residents of Iran

American citizens, legal permanent residents of the United States, and employers based in the United States who wish to file immigrant or fiancé(e) visa petitions for residents of Iran should contact their nearest Department of Homeland Security-Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services office in the United States."

DH hasn't lived in Iran since he was a teenager, and when we go to the States he travels without any trouble on his Australian passport. Do we qualify for DCF because he is a legal resident of Italy, even though he is Iranian?

I'm sorry if this is a moronic question, and I would really appreciate your advice!

Best,

I don't see why you wouldn't qualify. You are both legally residing in Italy- as long as you can prove that you're fine. We did DCF in Canada without being citizens (me the beneficiary), so you should be okiedokie to go.

Good luck, L.

If I were you, I would contact this department first:

Department of Homeland Security, Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services, United States Embassy, Consular Building, Via Veneto 121, 00187 Rome, Tel (39) 064674-2190, Fax (39) 064674-2920.

It's a shot!

Thank you, Nutty. I did not know that department existed (I have really just started doing research on this and am thrilled I found this site!).
