  1. Where in the instructions are you seeing that you must submit your ex spouses birth certificate. If you were applying based on marriage to a USC, it is required. But as you are not applying under this rule ( you do not meet the requirements to do so) I cannot see where the ex spouses birth certificate is even mentioned .
  2. Moved to “major family changes “ forum as this reflects OP’s situation
  3. You need to file 2023 taxes as LPR. You should file I407 to formally abandon you lpr status. Not filling for ROC doesn’t automatically trigger this. The date you sign the I407 will be considered the end of your lpr status .. You need to include in 2023 taxes any income earned anywhere in the world for whole of the year.. And, depending on your income up to the date on the I407, you may need to file for 2024 also, at least for the period from Jan 1 to that date.
  4. Cant have residency in 2 states at the same time . Cant have DL from 2 different states at the same time . Can own property in as many states as you want. But one will be primary residential state
  5. That is correct. The original documents of anything uploaded to NVC is required to be in the hands of the beneficiary at the interview. No way around this.
  6. Without getting an ITIN for her, your only option is MFS. You can always refile previously submitted returns to amend MFS to MFJ when she is here and has a SSN
  7. Suggest that she join the discussion group her self. As a single person, her status in the US and her ability to travel home and re-enter USA is her responsibility not yours.
  8. Sign up for Informed Delivery so you can see the day it arrives .. text or call your tenant to let them know it’s arriving and what you want him to do with it .. put it in a secure specified place in the house.. and call again to confirm he has done this
  9. Yes. Understood. Just not the countries OP is considering visiting 😞
  10. I would be applying now and paying for the expedite.. if it has not arrived 14 days prior to departure date , then she can get an appt at the passport office. But it might come through.. and of it does, then you will have saved yourself the hassle and round trip
  11. The on screen acknowledgement when you submit the AR11 is all you get. It is recommended that you always print the completed form and note the on screen confirmation number. But you are fine to file for ROC using your new address
  12. Visa requirements are based on Passport country ( eg Philippines) not country of residence Google will easily provide you with information about getting visas for those countries for her . Search it, apply .. i would be hopeful that you can get out done in time. But start now !!
  13. 1. No. 2. No 3. No Some IR visas allow for “derivatives” eg spouse, minor children, to be included on the application. IR 5 does not. Each of your parents application are stand alone. Now that they are both at the NVC, you can call as the petitioner of both, and request that they be “linked”. Hopefully this will have them processing and sent to the Consulate together. If this doesn’t happen, then the next opportunity is when the first one gets to the consulate… email and request that the first one be held until the second one arrives and that interview happen together
  14. Do not confuse the “acceptance” of the lodged documents with the “approval” of the documents and application. The clerical worker who processed your application and documentation does no more than verify that you have sent a readable photo of a drivers licence signed everything sent the required paperwork paid the correct fee. They do not evaluate the contents. Only the field officer who is assigned your case will do that .. and they do it in preparation for you scheduled interview. It is the applicants responsibility to ensure their application is fully compliant with requirements.
  15. No she cannot. Apply for a passport through the urgent travel option .. messy and time consuming depending on how close you live to the nearest passport center that has an appointment available. Appts can only be made within 14 days of the travel … or apply now through the usual method and expedite but be prepared to not travel if the passport doesn't come in time
