N400 question regarding wife?

[imse82 45]

I moved to different state 2.5 months ago because of new job. My wife didn't move with me because 1)kids were in school, and 2) she was 7 months pregnant and didn't want to change doctors etc. I will be eligible to apply on Jan 21st. My wife will be moving to live with me again around middle of February. Is this going to affect my application?

Thanks...

No you are together, just relocating. Don't forget to change your address with USCIS. Sometimes I wonder who runs our lives immigration or our choices?

No.

Just be honest when being asked. Your explanation makes perfect sense to me. If possible at all, have your wife accompany you to the interview!

I don't think you'll have any problems. If you want to be extra safe, wait with applying until you are under the same roof again.

Reminds me of problems with my stepdaughter, locked up in the same hole for the first 14 years of her life, but she adjusted, made many new friends, and even spent the last four months in the UK traveling all over Europe making many new friends and learning new cultures. Or my kid brother that just retired from 30 years in the military with my three nieces that traveled all over the world with many different schools. Learned how to catch up, learned many new cultures and languages, very well rounded girls and very smart. And really know how to deal with people.

In my own family had to pull up stakes four times because of jobs, at first was the end of the world for them, but they adjusted, and far better off today than being locked up in the same narrow minded hole all of their lives. Really can't buy that staying in the same kind of school bit a reason why your kids are not with you. And can say the same thing about your wife, like her doctor is the only doctor in the world, and at this stage, you should be together.

Also finances, unless you are living in your car. Stepdaughter is finally in her last semester of college, just gave her 500 bucks for one months rent to live in a dump, really screw you blind in college towns and not even tax deductible, get you both ways.

Sounds like you have other family problems besides immigration, and granted, don't have the right to assume this. Is your wife working? Now that is one good reason for spiting up being impossible for the two of you to find decent jobs in the same place and that has happened to other members of this board.

Its our government that is sending our jobs overseas, no one else to blame except them.
