I spoke to Travisa. The first representative said to have the original signature in both Form A and suddenly the line got disconnected. Called up again and was told by another representative to copy the first signed form A and attach which is completely opposite of what the first person said...

Hi, Do we need to send two Form A with original signature in both the forms or making a copy of the signed Form A would be fine? Thanks!

Thanks JPBoston! I had a question on Form A... Does the applicant need to have the original signature on the copy of Form A or is it to okay to sign the original Form A and make a copy of it and send? Speaking about the two copies,does that include the original plus a copy OR original plus two...

Hi List, My wife is applying the OCI along with the two kids under family based category. One of kids US Passport issue date was wrongly mentioned in Form A of OCI form. The month should have been September(09), but by mistake we mentioned November (11). All the forms (OCI PartA/B/Travisa...

Actually I had thought about it earlier, but I don't think that's possible in my case as my daughter applied and got her US passport (through me) even before my wife obtained her US citizenship. Thanks very much for all your guidance! Much appreciated!!!

This is what the Order Form shows for my daughter: - Service Fee $12.00 - Additional Fee $250.00 -> Penalty $20.00 -> Renunciation - Consular Fee $278.00 I think the renunciation fee for folks that got naturalized prior to Jun/2010 is...

I spoke to Travisa afterwards and was told that I will have to pay the $250 penalty based on my naturalization date. When I argued, she said that I need to apply for my daughter's separate naturalization certificate (if I don't want to pay the penalty) OR else I can send the application with a...

Looks like it's going to be $75 extra. So, why make a fuss about it. I will pay the penalty. Thank you again!

I was naturalized over 5 years back and had my Indian passport canceled at that time. However, my daughter applied and got her US passport in September, 2011 (around 2-3 months back). It's very weird that they are adding a penalty in this scenario. How about mentioning her US passport issue date...

Sorry spoke too early. When we entered my naturalization date as the date for my daughter in Travisa Order form, it added a penalty to her application (please see Family Member 2 details below). Any idea why there would a penalty of $250? Here's what it shows in the form: Family Member 2...

Thank you very much!!!

Thanks again for the advice. You are absolutely right. We have re-generated the forms without my details in Form A. Sorry I have another question on the Travisa Order Form... My daughter is a minor and got her US citizenship through me. At that time, we had simply applied for her US passport...

Thanks for the reply! After posting the question on this user forum, I had spoken to the customer support of Travisa, SFO office and was told that my wife should enter my information on the family based online application form even though I already have the OCI card. I am not sure how...

Hi, My wife recently got her US citizen and is applying for OCI along with the kids based on the family based OCI application. I already have the OCI card. The information for spouse section in that online form seems to be mandatory. Is she supposed to include my information in the spouse...

Thanks BigJoe5 and to all others who provided guidance earlier. We went to the local USCIS office after scheduling an INFOPASS appointment and spoke to the Immigration Officer. She immediately extended my wife's GC for 6 more months by stamping in her passport.

We spoke to USCIS Customer Support this morning and the agent said that we need to have a valid non-expired GC before going for the naturalization interview. The agent was simply reading from their knowledge base. She said that she knows that unnecessarily we will spend close to $500 on GC...

Thanks much for the reply! She filed for N-400 just 3 months before her GC is going to expire.

Hi, My wife's Green Card (10 year) is going to expire in next month (2nd week of November). She had applied for US Citizenship earlier and didn't apply for the renewal of Green Card with the hope that the naturalization process for the US citizenship will be over before the GC expires. Now...

Hi, We would like to apply for the US Passport for our child through the US Parent Naturalized category (one of the parents is a naturalized US citizen and the child is 15 years old). We completed all the paperwork and showed up at the post office to apply for the US passport as child's 10...

Thanks Yemroy for the quick response! She is not yet decided whether to take the citizenship or not. Since we just have 3 months left before GC expires, we are thinking to apply for her citizenship if GC renewal takes longer than 3 months and if for some reason she becomes out of status. Any...
