Hi, second tax related question for me. My account says I can report moving expenses I incurred when moving fro Italy to the US, such as my airplane ticket and the lodging expenses I had to stay in the US until finding a proper home. However I have some doubts: 1) Publication 521 talks...

Thanks, I appreciate your answer. Unfortunately I cannot choose to be a full year resident as I'm single. I'd like to hear also from someone else, jut to be sure. The fact is, the accountant is fairly certain of what he says and he sort of managed to convince me. Gabriele

Hi, I'm trying to figure out if the Dual Status rule applies to me. I came to the US for the first time mid-July 2012, on a Green Card (DV2012 lottery winner). I'm still here, and I never went back to my country (Italy) since entering the US. Moreover, prior to mid-July 2012 I have never...

Fine, thank you to everyone for your answers! Regards, Gabriele

Sounds like a sensible suggestion. Which forms will I have to fill in at the immigration office when entering the US ? The I-485 one? Regards, Gabriele

The italian consulate does not send the passport and the yellow envelope by mail anymore; thay hand them to a Mailboxes Etc. nearby, where you go to collect them (or have them sent to your home). They did not include instructions. In any case, thank you so much for your answer! Expecially the...

Hi Kate.S, thanks for answering. I read the ""where do you intend to live in the United States" question differently, i.e., if you write something there you must also state the street address and postal code. I read the "if known" clause as applying to the whole field, so that's why I asked if...

Thank Firi for answering. Do you know if, now that I specified on DS 230 all of my three work experiences, I need to provide the documentation for all of them ? As I said, it looks like one of the work experience letters will be hard to get. So I'm tempted to show only two of them at the...

Hello, I'm a selectee for the DV2012 lottery (see also my previous message). When filing form DS 230 to KCC, I filled BOTH the education declaration field (with all the school I attended, from primary to my university - I have a master's degree) AND the work experience one. Perhaps for...

Hello, I'm a selectee for the DV 2012 lottery. I sent the forms to KCC, without the address of residency and the address where to send the green card to (i.e. the two fields are empty). I know I must provide the address to send the green card to as soon as possible, at the very latest on the...
