Thanks everyone, I will call the US Consulate in New Delhi this week and find out the answer to this question if I can. Thank you for your advice. I am actually using a lawyer - and they have completed and sent me the forms. They have listed N/A for question 22 but I have asked to check what...

Thank you very much Big Joe - I read through the complete process and I have decided to retain a lawyer to help with paperwork.

Thanks all - yes - my wife resides in New Delhi - she has been living there for the past several years. Is there any place I can actually find out where here interview will be? I don't think the I-130 or any other documents in the initial stages have a place to note where her application should...

Thanks for your response. So I will not apply for a K3 visa. It's not worth it if it's only a small 1 to 2 month delay between a K3 and a I-130 application. My wife is Iranian but is living in India. If the wait times depends on the consulates, is there any place where I can find out which...

So applying for a K3 is completely useless? Isn't it faster for your spouse to come to the US despite the added expense of AOS since you save time waiting for the the interview at the consulate if you were to do the counselor processing?

Hi Solid Traveling, Did you apply for the K3 visa? I wanted to know since I am in a very similar situation you were. I am married to an Iranian and I am confused between K3 and IR1 - my lawyer says that it's better to apply for both but I am hearing in this thread that it is obsolete and...

I hired a lawyer to file for my wife's I-130 - I am a US Citizen - married since 2 years but was waiting for naturalization to file for my wife. My lawyer asked me whether I would like to file a K3 visa along with the I-130 and that if the K3 visa is approved before the I-130 then she will be...

Thanks for the replies. I decided to go with a lawyer and he will help out in the application process.

I read through a number of threads but could not find a complete answer. I got married in 2010 and I did not apply for my wife since I was waiting to get naturalized. Since I became a US Citizen, now I want to apply for her I-130. I have the following documents that I need for her...

I thought updating your SS information is a required thing? Everyone I know did it - is it optional?

Is there a checklist of things that a newly naturalized US Citizen should do. I know there's a bunch of things. I can think of a few 1) Apply for US Passport 2) Apply for I-130 for wife (this applies to me) 3) Change Social Security Information 4) Register to Vote 5) Change Driver's...

Today I had my naturalization interview and I became an American Citizen!!!!!! Such a long journey but it is finally done :) Now I have to apply for my wife who is waiting for me in India. Thank you everyone - you all have been such a great help and support. I have been using this forum...

Thanks for your reply Jugnu. My case is fairly straightforward. Employment based green card + 5 years. Living in the same state and same job for several years. I am going to carry several documents like drivers license, driver history, proof of employment, pay stubs - still thinking if it is...

Hello, I am a permanent resident going through the N400 process. I have my interview in a few days and hopefully once I pass the interview I will be a USC. I am married for the past 2 years but my wife is in India. I did not apply for her as the spouse of a green card holder because it...

Interview Letter Received Got my interview scheduled for August 23rd Quick question - what things should I carry with me to the interview other than passport and greencard etc. Another question - I traveled internationally in the last month - is that something I should just let the IO...

I have a similar question - I plan to go for a week and a half abroad and was wondering if we need to fill out any details or make that update at the time of the interview?

Hello, I am currently going through the naturalization process and hope to get my USC in a few months. While I wait, I wanted to get ready to apply for my wife who is currently in India (I got married in year 3 of my GC so we have been apart for 2 years and it's really getting very tough for...

What should I take with me for fingerprinting appointment? Is just an ID and the appointment letter enough?

Thank you very much turc. I just want to be able to gauge when I can expect to receive the interview date because I need to go to India to visit my wife for about 10 days and there will be nobody home to pick up the mail. By the way - one's GC date shouldn't matter right? The N400...

GC Date is 07/26/07 : GC Received - it's in my signature
