  1. I imagine you'd also have to do FBAR every year. May want to consult with one of big 4 tax firms - they have international tax reporting clients and should be able to guide you better than a HR Block person or even a CPA who only do simple or limited complexity taxes (federal, state taxes). Better to do it now than in the thick of tax season.
  2. You'll likely have to petition children via individual I-130s (just like your husband) and then once they come on immigrant visas they'll become USC. Husband will get the LPR status.
  3. Read with understanding - I said: If you haven't paid already, pay for the green card production fee.
  4. Yes, you can. If you haven't already, pay for green card issuance and once at POE make sure everything it correct in the SAVE database.
  5. And this someone else is wrong. You're free to waste as much additional time you want, but the case will not be transferred to NVC unless and until you complete the I-824. It wasn't USCIS' fault, it was your fault for completing both sections when that was not the case. Expensive mistake to make but you know the way forward - I-824 and its fee.
  6. If you're a US citizen and meet the requirements, you'll do CRBA for your son https://do.usembassy.gov/ecrba/
  7. About 2 years for parents and well above 20+ years for siblings. Your niece will most likely age out before visa number is available. travel.state.gov and look up visa bulletin.
  8. He means separate DS-160s for interview (non-immigrant visa - K1 for mother, K2 for child). You only do one I-129f and list the child where asked about.
  9. Yes, if they have the same GC approval date (this was K1 visa so AOS filing and then interview with USCIS), they're fine.
  10. Well yes. The purpose of family based petition is family unification. If sponsor is not in the US they may turn you around.
  11. When in doubt go with what the I-751 instructions say (uscis.gov/I-751): If you have dependent children who acquired conditional resident status on the same day as you or within 90 days thereafter, then include the names and Alien Registration Numbers (A-Numbers) of these children in Part 5. of Form I-751 in order to request that the conditions on their status be removed as well. If you have dependent children who did not acquire conditional resident status on the same day as you or within 90 days thereafter, or if the conditional resident parent is deceased, then those dependent children must each file Form I-751 separately to have the conditions on their status removed.
  12. That's great news. Whenever your window opens for N400 - file away.
  13. The matter of what's sufficient when it comes to finances is something that your future university will decide on - in the form of the DS-2019. After you get that form is when you can schedule your student visa appointment. Which embassy will you interview at?
  14. Once interview scheduled, print the missing info and submit it to the officer at interview - they'll also go over all the questions in the application and ask if you have any edits - that's the time to say you forgot to list employment. You can also see if you can attach the same paperwork if you did an online application.
  15. It's form Ds-11. Complete it and bring it with you (plus pic of baby) - do NOT sign it until consular officer says to do so.
  16. So you DON'T have an unrestricted SSN card. You won't be able to use DL and SS card as it has the restriction on it - you need to remove the restriction from SS card.
  17. Consular in London should work for DCF if the case qualifies: https://uk.usembassy.gov/embassy-consulates/government-agencies/dhs/uscis/
  18. Do you have an unrestricted SSN (WITHOUT verbiage saying valid for work only with DHS authorization)?
  19. You're fine without having to do anything. I disagree with what the previous poster said - boosters not needed :
  20. Why not involve your congressional representative's federal agencies liaison? They have direct line of communication with USCIS. Find who your representatives are, get their phone number or address, go there with a signed privacy release form and any and all paperwork from USCIS.
  21. ~Topic moved to AOS from work, student, or tourist visa.~ Guides up top have what you're looking for and other members of VJ community who have been through the AOS on their own will shortly add their bits. I don't think you need a lawyer at all.
  22. Well it's pretty easy - either she gets on the plane and you then provide proof she's in the US like an ATM receipt, purchase of something, medical appointment, voter card, or she shows evidence that's she's already looking for a job in the US (has an interview lined up for a certain date), has packed out and given notice at her current residence, has gotten quotes from movers to move what she's accumulated to the US...
