I haven't found the information on here. I am assuming that they do not. It looks like I am going to be going there to live for a while and since I haven't got the papers in yet it would be the best option for us.

Yes, you can.....I filed a CR1 locally in HCMC and it only took 4 months to process....

However, there's some prerequisites! You need to have have lived & worked in VN for at least one year and they will request
1.) police records showing your local VNs residency,
2.) copy of your passport pages,
3.) letter from your employer OR business records

That's the situation 3 years ago so the process may have changed? Go to the ACS (american citizen services) @ the Consulate and ask them?

Good luck,

Thanks. I think it may have changed because I found a post on another board that said they do not accept them but that USCIS has a field office in HCMC where you can submit the I-130.
