US Immigration from Norway

I am cautiously optimistic that we will be moving to New Hampshire at the end of july, as long as my visa arrives in time. My oldest daughter is 14 this year and is supposed to start high school in the fall, but we contacted the school and they said I cannot do anything until I actually move there. I want her to get the best start possible with all the other kids, so I am worried she will be delayed. Getting her immunization records and CRBA is no problem, but they said I have to show proof of physical and legal residency. How can I get that fast enough? Anyone have any tips? I plan to go get my social security number as quickly as I can, because I assume I might need that to be put on the mortgage or any bills? I would really hate for her to start late because of this. >_<

Anyone know if any documents stating I will be living with my fiancee might work?

What are your experiences using a moving company to move household items from your home country to the US?

I have been in touch with one and since i will not be bringing any furniture we settled on 5 cubic meters, which should be ok. I think. It is really expensive, but I can't just tell my kids to replace everything they own, and we can make it work with the cost.

But you have to make an itemized list and then later on customs will inspect it, but since I am moving countries you don't have to pay for it if it falls within the right categories, right? I read something about documenting that you are moving, just not sure with which papers..

Have not decided yet if we should send our stuff off a month early, or wait until we move, we will be packing suitcases anyway so we will be fine for a while. Plus I already have a good amount of my stuff at my fiances place since the move has been in the works for the past year and I have visited several times.

Any advice, knowledge, something?

I know this varies a lot, but I was wondering what you guys think or what experiences you have. After you finish the K1 process or at least see the end of it, when would you order tickets to move?

My interview is june 16th. I am looking at one-way tickets for me and the kids in the later part of july and the prices are outrageous. I would wait until mid august, but I really want us to be able to settle in for a while before school starts. But when is it "safe" to order these?

Spending a little extra, I could order tickets that can be changed, but due to the time of year I fear there wont be a lot available, especially for 3 people.

I asked people on a discord, and some people say I should wait until I have the visa in hand but I mean.. that might make this even more expensive. X_X

Also.. anyone have any experience with buying round trip tickets and the second ticket being like... 6-7-8 months later? I guess you just end up with the same problem because you would want to go back. Lol.

I am finally trying to trying to schedule my interview and i have to pay for my visa delivery but then the website says this:

Please note that the passport can only be delivered within Sweden. International deliveries are not possible.

Also: Premium Delivery - You must register your delivery address on our courier partner's platform and pay the delivery fee (297 SEK). The platform can be accessed from this page by selecting the Premium Delivery option.

So I try the latter, but the only thing that seems like I can get delivered in norway is the interview waiver??

This is what it says:

You should only use this service if you have received an Interview Waiver confirmation from your ustraveldocs.com profile or you have been issued a 221(g) letter and instructed by the U.S. Embassy or Consulate to submit additional documentation for further processing.

I am so confused. How do I get the passport back with the visa in it? Do I have to wait in Stockholm?

My husband (a Norwegian citizen) and I (a U.S. citizen) applied for his green card before the pandemic, and it was granted in 2021. Due to job uncertainty during the pandemic, we postponed our move and have been living in Norway ever since. Last year, we had our first child and are planning to travel to the U.S. next month to visit family and friends. We have also travelled to the US since that time and had no problems but given the current situation/news stories regarding greencard holders, I am unsure what to do. Given that he has not lived in the U.S. since obtaining his green card, should he relinquish it and apply for an ESTA instead, or would it be better to keep it in case we decide to move in the future?

Has anyone been in a similar situation that could share some advice?
