US Immigration from Australia

Hello, has anyone here filled out a W-8BEN form? I just need help on filling out the form. They returned it to me due to some errors. They are requiring my foreign tax number but the customer service rep from USAA that I talked to told to leave it blank. Kind of confused. Thanks in advance!

Hi All,

Please feel free to redirect to previous threads if this question has been answered, but I've yet to find a straight answer!

My spouse (finally!) got his interview at the US Consulate in Sydney! We're so relieved and excited after a very challenging process and want to make sure we don't trip at the finish line. My question: it very clearly says he needs to bring all original documents that we uploaded to the NVC. Does that include the things I, the petitioner, uploaded, like my actual birth certificate? I can mail it to him if need be, but I'm nervous about sending that sort of document overseas, it's the one that was issue at my birth and I'd hate for something to happen to it.

For what it's worth, he's able to bring everything else that he personally uploaded because he already has it with him in Australia of course. It's my stuff in the U.S. that I'm wondering about.

Thank you!

Hello everyone, so, unfortunately wasn t able to have same day oath ceremony in beginning of March in Tucson AZ. And it s been 2 weeks already since we placed you in a line to schedule the oath ceremony ...anyone has experience maybe how long will it take ? Thanks.

I am an Aussie, currently in the US on a B2 visa visiting my fianc . Our I-129F petition was finally approved, and I know I need to leave the US to be interviewed for my K1 visa. I have two dependent children, currently in Australia, who will need to be interviewed for their K2 visas. Is it possible for us to be interviewed in different countries (i.e. for me to be interviewed in El Salvador and for my children to be interviewed in Australia)? Reason: it is difficult to get a flight back to Australia with current COVID-19 travel caps and we want our family to be reunited ASAP.
