US Immigration from Australia

Hi Everyone,

This forum has been abundantly helpful for me in the past.

I want to know if I am eligible to start applying for naturalization this year, or if I have to wait another 1.5 years.

I was selected for a DIV-1 visa and I interviewed and received permanent resident status in October 2016. I then waited until February 2018 to move to the US, so I just had my 3 year anniversary of physically living in the US.

Am I eligible to start applying for naturalization this October, or do I have to wait to start Applying in February 2023?

Thanks in advance

I have my interview finally scheduled for April 7in California. I shall have to travel out of state in late March. The 7th will be the day I get out of the 10 day "California recommended quarantine". The interview letter only mentions out of USA travel. Does anyone know if the 10 day quarantine is sufficient before the interview, or do they have some other rule for out of state travel? Would having a Covid test help?

We got NVC approved on February 9 2021.How long does it take to interview? My wife interview at Sydney US Embassy.

Thank you.

Hello,

I received my SSN through my EAD/AP card but my three year old daughters was never processed and we both have our green cards now. I called the SSO today and they told me that she would need to do a new application but because she is three she doesn't get an interview so it has to be my mail. I need to send her green card, passport as well as my passport and her birth certificate and they will mail it back. I really do not feel comfortable sending all of those documents considering we need them and they are hard to replace here. Is this really the only way around it? If it is I will do it but I thought I would ask here first as it makes me a bit nervous!

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I am sponsoring my mother who is a former Chinese citizen, current Australian citizen (living in Australia) for permanent residency in the US. I understand that we have to obtain police clearance certificates from all the places she's lived since the age of 16, unfortunately, she left China in the 80's, and at this point, we no longer have relatives/contacts living in the cities where she previously resided to help with the process.

How did everyone approach getting the PCC documents if you were not in China and don't have any contacts who can help apply on your behalf?

Many thanks
