Their biological mother is not involved in their lives. Currently being taken care of during breaks from school by their grandmother. They are all enrolled in a boarding school.

He got his 2 year GC and currently waiting for his 10 years which we applied for but he got the 48 months extension. I didn't know that someone with 2 years conditional could file for his or her children. Interesting to know. But I would assume the process would take longer than if a citizen files it. I've been married to their father for the past 3 years though have known them since 2019.

They are living with their grandparents. I didn't know that I can file for them. I assumed my husband would as their biological father. This filing would be 1-130. Correct? They are 12, 10 and 8.

Hello everyone, I'm a bit worried about my children (stepchildren). With the insecurity in the country of their abode, I'm very worried about their safety. I am a US citizen, filed for my husband. He has his conditional greencard. We filed for condition removal early this year but he was given an extension. I feel this wouldn't enable him to be able to file for the children on time. Can I file for them? I'm willing to start the process asap if I can. Thank you all for your input.

Right Thank you very much for all.your feedback 😊.

I know right 🤣 I have come this far with no lawyer after I filed K1 and we got RFE. We panicked and went to a lawyer. He requested for $16,000. $8,000 each for my husband and step child. But lawyer, you didn't start the process! Why such high amount 🙄 I fastened my seat belt and did my research. We are doing fine without any legal representation.

Thank you for your feedback

So do they eventually send out the 10 years green card during the 48 months or everyone files for citizenship when it's time? I just gave my husband the feedback 🤣 He said maybe he is clueless about the recent update after telling my husband that he has seen such occurrence before. But lawyer, USCIS doesn't disclose if you are denied or extended bases on not changing your last name or not having a baby together 🙄

Exactly my thought cos I have read everywhere that people are getting 48 months extensions. He is not even our lawyer cos we have been doing DIY from the get-go. My husband consulted him when we got the extension letter. With the little knowledge I have acquired on VJ, I think I might be applying to law school and kick some lawyers to the curb🤣 Thank you. 😊

Good morning VJ family 😊 Please I need clarification on what occurred after we filled for removal of conditions. We received a letter of 48 months extension. At first, I thought it is the new thing about them to buy time before they can send the PR for 10 years but a lawyer said we were sent the letter cos we don't have a child together or probably cos I didn't change my last name to my husband's. 🙄 Changing one's last name doesn't indicate true love to me, talking from past experience plus do they understand that some women have difficulty getting pregnant even when they want to? Plus my last birth was 17 years ago. Yes I am open to the option of having a set of twins for my husband, medically I can't cos I had IUD in for donkey of years and when I took it out almost 4 years ago, my period hasn't returned. I have been prescribed medication twice for 10 days but it still hasn't returned. So only God can come through. Are there people in the house who got 48 months as well? Thanks everyone.

Thank you

Happy New Year my visajourney family! i hope you all are doing well and the year is off to an awesome start for you 🤗 Please i need tour help in clarifying Part 8 section which states "Acknowledgement of Appointment at USCIS Application Support Center" My husband is the beneficiary and the one having to do removal. My name was listed on Part 4. And this Part 8 requires the Spouse or Individual listed in Part 4. I put my name under this Part 8 but I am not showing up at the center for fingerprints as the lines indicate after the I,.......... Please help me understand whose name goes there, mine or his? Cos I wasn't aware US citizens still have to do fingerprints along with their beneficiaries. Thanks so much.

What other good evidences do they accept? We have couple of vehicles with both names. We don't have mortgage yet but we have our joint apartment lease. we are starting a business together this year within the next couple of months.

Really? I thought both of you not filing jointly especially for the first year of being married is something Immigration officers frown upon 🤔

Sorry she came on K2. K3 was a typo

In my case, filing jointly will make my refund $3,000 less but separately was higher but since he is still conditional resident, have no choice than to file jointly

Sorry for the late response. We went to court and we were granted full custody. I didn't fill adoption papers or anything related.

Please experts, I have a quick question, does a k3 child who have the 2 year residency permit need to file for removal or the parent when he becomes a citizen a year after can file for her citizenship? Thanks.
