US Immigration from Italy

Hi everyone - my fianc e and I will apply for the CR1 this fall. My passport will expire in December 2025 so will be during the visa process. What are the guidelines saying about it? Couldn t really find anything on the internet. My country (Italy) only allows to renew the passport 6 months before the expiration date (June 2025 in my case). Thanks for any advice!

This is my first post, so apologies if it s not the right place. My fianc e (American) and I (Italian) recently got engaged and live in Italy. She has a student visa (italian school), and I work here. Our goal is to move to the US as soon as possible and we are debating which route to take.

We re considering the K-1 Visa but are concerned because I wouldn't be able to work until I get the Adjustment of Status (AOS) & work permit, and I couldn t travel without Advance Parole. Can we apply for AOS, the work permit, and Advance Parole all at once? What s the timeline?

We re also aware of the cost difference between the K-1 Visa and Consular Processing. Any advice would be appreciated!

Does anyone have a copy of the required immunizations that will be required at the medical exam? I'd like to send my husband to the doctor to get them before the appointment to save money. Thank you!

Hi guys. Quick question. My spouse and I are going for DCF. When he gets the immigrant visa and enters the US with it, is he automatically considered a US permanent resident at that point?

Many thanks.

Hello,

I finally received the notice for the interview that is going to be on August 29th. Unfortunately, I already made plans (but not purchased tickets yet) to travel in Europe from August 18th to September 9th to both attend 2 weddings of long-time friends and support my father who has been sick for some time. I am now very struggling to make a decision:

- Should I ask to reschedule the interview directly? I am just afriad that it will take months again

- I might attend the N400 interview but then I will have to leave the US the day after and come back in mid September. If the Oath Cerimony is schedule during this time, what should I do? Could I reschedue this one in case, even if not for an emergency? Is it true that I can speak with the officer at the interview to communicate a date since I could be able to attend the interview?

- If luckily I have the Oath Cerimony the same day, then I am going to have to request the US passport needed to travel outside the country. How long would it take?

Any useful info based on your past experences is very gratefull. Will definitely help me understand how to make a better plan.
