  1. Apply for the passport the same as you would if your child was born in the USA. The visa and entry stamp are the evidence of Citizenship needed along with birth certificate and translation, if needed, would be the evidence of Citizenship.
  2. First thing that comes to mind is that this is the natural child of a US Citizen who could not pass citizenship at birth. In this case, once the child enters the USA using an IR2 visa, to reside with the US Citizen parent, they are immediately a US Citizen. That's a case that would exempt the IR2 child. Is that the situation?
  3. First, this is not a visa case. It's no case at all, because the US Citizen has taken no action. The illegal alien posting the question has no path to a green card, without a qualified sponsor. Unlawful work is forgiven in these cases, but claiming to be a US Citizen is not. Lawyer time, and be prepared for the best advice to be self deportation.
  4. There isn't. You can hand write the country code after printing.
  5. He only needs one valid passport for the interview, but he must have a valid passport at that time.
  6. Use the current passport number on the DS 260 and update at interview. You can also delay at NVC until he has the new passport.
  7. Yes, it should go to the address she gave at POE, but it would be prudent to put in a change of address with the Post Office too.
  8. She must legally be present in a country, in order to do Consular processing there. If awaiting a decision or asylum, that would work.
  9. They cannot immediately file an I-130 after a Utah Zoom marriage. They must have evidence they have been together in person, between the date of the ceremony and the date of filing the petition.
  10. Nobody said that about London. However, you still must properly state current income.
  11. Be aware that your emotional responses to the current political climate have no connection whatsoever to your spouse visa process.
  12. Then my advice is to get that tax return filed. Your current income is the "Total Income " number. Same for that section where you enter tax return information. Yes, this may delay your I-864, but the cause is your lack of preparation.
  13. My advice is file properly on paper and pay the correct fee. Why complicate matters further?
  14. If you are a landlord with rental income, you are both employed and self employed. You must state your "current income" by entering the number on your latest tax return labeled "total income". In many cases, landlords' current income is reduced by their expense and depreciation deductions. You BE both, but you cannot have it both ways.
  15. The bold above is incorrect. Quite wrong for a self employed person. For the self employed, "current income" is the number on the "total income" line of the latest federal tax return. For the employed, it's the gross for a full pay period, times the number of pay periods in a year. In some cases that might be what is expected for 2025, but not in all cases. Nowhere in the instructions is "expected in the current calendar year" mentioned. It's not current year income. It's current income. The OP's question cannot be properly answered without knowing whether they are employed or self employed.
  16. Are you employed or self employed. If employed, the answer to your question is different than if you are self employed. In general though, the year you sponsor an immigrant is not a good time to file for an extension.
  17. List current step children. Step children from a former marriage are no longer step children. This is because of a change in the form. I did not check all versions in between 2013 and now, but the 2013 version says does not mention step children. At some point this changed, but you would not list former step children.
  18. You can enter your PO box as your mailing address, and your son's address as your physical address. Yes, USCIS will mail to a PO Box.
  19. Excellent advice, but just to clarify, it is the US Citizen spouse that needs legal help, not the OP.
  20. The address where you are staying with your son, will do nicely. The tense of your question is confusing though. As written, in the present tense, you are still living at the home you will be moving from. Enter the information that is correct on the date you file.
  21. Do be aware that when you start a new business, you become self employed, and the business does not produce what is "income" in this context until that income shows up on the total income line of a US Federal Tax Return. What the business initially produces is "revenue" not income. (Again, in this context) Income is profits shown on a tax return, after you deduct business expenses from revenue.
  22. Agreed. As mentioned already, if the crime falls under the Adam Walsh Act, big problem. If not, probably not an issue. Do not file the I-129f for spouse.
  23. I tend to agree, but the first interview regarding the I-485 would normally be a joint interview with both spouses. Something doesn't sound right here.
  24. No need to file a new one. Carry an up to date affidavit of support to the interview. If your circumstances require a joint sponsor at that time, then bring a full package for petitioner and joint sponsor to the interview.
