US Immigration from Israel

Hi,

After applying for my first US passport, I got a mail requesting that I indicate the place of birth to appear in my passport: Israel or Jerusalem.

I am an Israeli citizen, born in Jerusalem, with an Israeli passport.

I'm not sure what the best option is.

Would choosing one over the other have any consequences?

Thank you

waiting for interview for 2 years and 7 months is this normal?

this is a freaking out post!
last week my wife had the interview, and while the interview went pretty well, still got 221g for proof of domicile and her old non-immigrant visa, but they still kept the passports.
few days later we filed the proof of domicile and the old visa. but then 2 days later they sent the passport back to us without the visa and requested also military records(which i also submitted today on ceac)
how bad is this that they sent back the passports?? i am freaking out!!

Hey,

My wife had her immigrant visa interview on Wednesday in Jerusalem, I am an American citizen, both of us live together in Israel and the address I put on the I-864 is an address in Israel were we live and work.

The consul told her that basically the visa was approved but we still need to provide additional documents for proof of domicile and only then she will receive her passport with the visa.

We have an American bank account, but he said we need more proof, I was thinking to ask my aunt who lives in the states to sign a lease agreement that we will rent a room in her house. will that be enough? what other proof can we provide? Sign a GYM membership maybe? Renters insurance?

Thanks for any advice.
