US Immigration from Chile

Hi,

We are in process with our application for my wife (Chilean) to become a US resident after we got married last year. Our forms (I-130, I-131, I-485, I-765) were accepted December 5th 2020 .

I am starting a good job soon with excellent health insurance etc.

I have not spoken to the new employer as I have not received the official offer yet.

But I am wondering if I will be able to get health insurance for her.

I am thinking I should apply for an ITIN number for her.

I filed my taxes for 2020 as a single person.

I believe if I wanted to file a W7 for to apply for an ITIN number I would need to file an amended return.

Anybody have experience of this process?

Any reason not to file for an ITIN?

Could my wife file a tax return with zero income to apply for the ITIN?

Any idea how long the ITIN process takes?

Anybody have experience with getting decent resident health insurance without an SSN or ITIN???

Thanks Martin

I am currently living outside the US because of my husband s military orders. I would like to travel to another country soon. I wonder if I will have any trouble with my US residency if I do? This is confusing to me because I have read on this forum that being overseas on orders counts as living in the US. So, I think if I visit another country for a short visit, I shouldn t have any problems as long as I follow the same rules as if I was still living in the US, right?

Hi,

We are almost ready to submit my I-751... we don't have any children, how we complete the Part 5. Information about your Children? should we write "N/A" or just leave it blank... thanks..

I'm from Chile applying for my visa, been married to an American for 3 years, both living in Chile the whole time.

We first applied in September 2018... We had ZERO feedback for almost a year. We decided to start a family and September 2019 I got pregnant and SURPRISE! We got feedback from the visa, moving on to the next step.

There was some chaos in Chile from October 2019 to February 2020 (political issues) so we paused the Visa process voluntarily and also because we didn't want the departure date clash with delivery date. Then March 2020, full quarentine started in our city for like 5 months.

Meanwhile, I had a baby who Will be getting her American citizenship and passport soon.

Has anybody else been through this situation? Do we have to let the visa people know we had a baby? How do we let them know??

Any help would be appreciated.
