US Immigration from Germany

Hello VJ-Community,

I have a quick question, is an APO address considered to be an American address or does my husband have to establish domicile in the US. We are currently both living in Germany, but he is still fully integrated in the American system as he is here through the SOFA agreement based on his job. Do we need to do anything in particular to establish domicile.

We have an American address that we are currently using for immigration purposes, but naturally he can't live in 2 places at once.

I know I messed up not checking my passport earlier but my German passport expired in June and I was wanting to travel to Germany to visit my family for Christmas.
I can get a new passport until then easily through the normal application but I was wondering if it would be possible to apply for it with my maiden name since you have to apply for a name change through marriage to get my new name on the passport.

All my American documents (ID, greencard etc) are with my new last name, will this be a problem during the application? I am ok with receiving a new passport with my maiden name.

Did anyone else go through this and can give me some advice?

thank you

So my husband and I filed to remove conditions last July and found out last week that they were approving his case to remove conditions. Great! Well the approval letter just got here and I was reading it over.

It says we should receive the card within 60 days.

It also says you should not travel outside the United States until you receive your green card as you may have difficulty reentering.

My husband already booked a flight a couple weeks back to do a month long visit back home. He is scheduled to leave this coming Monday.

I am supposed to be joining him at the end of the month. Do you think we will get his green card by the end of the month and I can bring it with me? Why can't we travel until we get the card if we have that letter?

Hi,

I have the interview for my CR1 Visa on the 19th of September in Frankfurt.

I had a few questions:

- We used an online translation service for my Criminal Records (Immitranslate) which was accepted by NVC. It is a PDF that says it is certified.

This is what is required by the embassy:

and this is the translation:

If I print this out, will that be enough, or do I need to translate it again here in Germany?

- What would happen if by accident one document is missing?

- I need to bring PROOF OF DOCUMENT DELIVERY ADDRESS. Can I just bring the email from GTSpremium?

- The USTravel portal is a bit confusing. Everything is filled out, but there is always a "continue" on the top left, even though the delivery was set up. It also doesn't have the interview date listed. Is that intended?

Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,

I am currently in the process of filling out the AOS Form I-864, and I was wondering if I can fill out some information on my computer and handwrite the rest of the fields that my laptop does not allow me to fill out digitally? Has anyone submitted their form where they filled out some fields digitally and some handwritten?

Also, when I initially download the form the barcode is visible at the bottom of the pages, but when I open it in my Adobe Reader the barcode disappears (I did update my Adobe Reader and am still faced with this issue). I was wondering if anyone else has had this issue with their form and if they were able to solve the issue or is it okay to submit the form without the barcode at the bottom?
