US Immigration from Dominican Republic

Hi!

I have about 8 years in the States as a Legal Permanent Resident, i started the process for petition of my son, all paperwork is done and paid, he is currently waiting for the priority date, which for him is NOV-2015, so it is close.

And my question is, does it affect him, delays or alter or whatever if i initiate the process for my citizenship?

anyone else having problem with scheduling interview? I have been trying to schedule for 2 weeks now and nothing is available.

1. How many tax returns does your joint sponsor have to show that is actually required?

2. When do you have to schedule VAC? We re still doing the affidavit of support and have to pay the fee. I m guessing you do the VAC right after you submit

Hi everyone,

My USC husband is planning to petition his mom from the Dominican Republic. We are concerned because I'm not sure we have proof of her name change. (In the specific examples below I used fake names.)

MIL legally married FIL -husband's dad, 1st last name Rodriguez- after the birth and declaration of my husband. On his birth certificate her name is (for example) Mary Jane Doe Smith. Later her married name became Mary Jane Doe de Rodriguez.

The married name is on the passport and visa. The VJ guide says a marriage certificate is evidence of name change. However, on her marriage certificate no name change is listed. It just says that MIL's maiden name is marrying FIL.

In the US the name change is spelled out really clearly. Is the Dominican marriage certificate I described good enough evidence to justify the difference between her passport and birth certificate? She has no other document and if she needs one I don't know what to tell her to get. I THINK it is ok but..anyone here who knows?
