You can update the I-864 A (your father in law) to show assets you mentioned . Show equity in house with copy of property tax statement, a Zillow market value print out ...

Is a Zillow market value printout adequate? The I-864 instructions say to get an appraisal by a licensed appraiser.

"You may include the net value of your home as an asset. The net value of the home is the appraised value of the home, minus the sum of any and all loans secured by a mortgage, trust deed, or other lien on the home. If you wish to include the net value of your home, then you must include documentation demonstrating that you own it, a recent appraisal by a licensed appraiser, and evidence of the amount of any and all loans secured by a mortgage, trust deed, or other lien on the home.

Hello everyone,

It s been a long time since I ve logged in. If this question has been answered, I apologize. My questions is: when can my spouse file for U.S Citizenship? She has been a permanent resident since January 2020. She received her 10 year green card last year, after having a temporary 2 year green card. I ve read that she can file after 3 years if she is married to a U.S Citizen (me)?

Any insight or reading material would be greatly appreciated.

You all have been helpful since the beginning of the journey.

Thank you,

What is biometrics? I have a meeting Friday. What to expect? Should I fill out the form before or during?

My wife went to work in HK 13 years ago, worked there for 3 years and has been back in PH since. We know that we will need to obtain an HK police clearance but the requirements and instructions seem troubling.

These are from the HK website:

1. A PHOTOCOPY of a request letter from the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority, which contains the applicant s name and clearly indicates that the production of the Certificate is required.
There should also be a POSTAL ADDRESS of the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority since the application result will be directly sent to them by registered mail. (Please refer to paragraphs 9 to 12 below for details)

2.

Please pay the processing fee in bank draft, made payable to "The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region". The draft must be payable in Hong Kong. A personal cheque in HK dollar which is issued and authorized by any licensed bank in Hong Kong is also acceptable. Regarding the abbreviations on the bank draft / personal cheque, you may write 'The Government of Hong Kong SAR'.

Alternatively, you may mail the application documents to your relative/friend in Hong Kong who can submit the application on your behalf and pay the fee in cash / Octopus Card / EPS in our office*.

Please note that credit card/ electronic/ online/ telegraphic transfer of money / electronic cheque or cash sent by mail are not accepted.

3.Upon receipt of complete application documents and the required processing fee, if no criminal conviction data against the applicant is kept by the Hong Kong Police Force, we shall issue the Certificate and send it directly by registered mail of the Hongkong Post to the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority within four calendar weeks. Applicants will NOT receive any copy of the Certificate.

I am sure there are others who have encountered these issues can you guide us in how to overcome these.
