    GreenGem reacted to Undecided in US Citizenship thru Father (Deceased) What to do?   
    Her cheapest option will be to apply for a passport. The issue is - will she have enough documentation?  You might be able to obtain a copy of the naturalization certificate here https://www.uscis.gov/g-1041a Alternatively there may be a public record of the naturalization in the national archives.
     
    Although it’s possible that the copy that you have is sufficient. I’d check out the passport application and see what she needs to apply and then work out if you have what is necessary.
     
    Best of luck.

    If you're eligible I say go for it. Filing N400 will not impact you negatively. Your I-751 will continue it's normal process and will not put you at the end of a waiting line. Your N-400 will run a normal process as well. There's a lot of thread here who filed N400 while their I-751 is pending.

    She needs to go there on Monday and hopefully the endorsement can be done as soon as possible and if she knows someone who works at the city hall who can help her that will help too. Lol

    Luckily no. I only needed to do the postings on a local news paper. The problem on mine was the gender. But my ex husband had the similar problem with your fiance's daughter and during that time (year 2006) corruption is on peak so $$ was involved and it was fast like took less than a week. I went thru a "normal" route coz I had time.

    For the passport you will need a PSA birth certificate.  If the name has not changed for the child why not use a current BC, get a copy from PSA.. take that to DFA and get the passport.   If you expedite delivery, it is possible to have the passport in 2-3 weeks.

    I would call them to verify if your address has been changed on file and tell them the service number request you have for your AR-11. Usually it should not take more than 30 days for them to update your address. No need to freak out. I don't remember changing my ex-husband's (USC) address with uscis when I did a change address before and we didn't have any problems.

    I agree with you wholefully and heartfully as I have scoured the internets for moooooonnnnths. 
    However that leaves us with no explanation as to how K1s with 30 days or even 60 days left in validity on their I94s are denied for a marriage based name change on the SSN. SSA will explain it exactly as I have for those of us who were denied. "The names must match. You will have to wait for you immigration name to be updated".

    Lol. I assumed you we're the father. My apologies. Can be that they are thinking you are doing the CRBA instead of the INA 320. You need to submit the original passport not a copy. We sent my son's original foreign passport, they'll return it later. It was a lot of hassle handling this because my son was registered late and his dad was the USC. 
     
    It won't hurt to do a draft letter and fill in the DS-5507 as well. Yes if the USPS is closer to you then no need to go look further. Best of luck!

    It is clear in the letter from the Passport Agency that you either submit the original passport with the I-551 Stamp "OR" a DS-5507. 
     
    A simple statement from you regarding residences would suffice and have it notarized. Was the second child's birth certificate registered late or perhaps you were not in the country where the child was born at the time of the birth.

    GreenGem reacted to cynpen in I-751 OCTOBER 2018   
    Hi everybody! 
    I wanted to share my experience traveling with the expired green card and the 18-month extension notice. I went to Argentina and came back in April, and every time I had to check in for a flight it took people around 40 minutes to figure out what to do with my documents (BTW, they just have to check you in with the green card and add 18 months to the expiration date on the green card, even if it is actually expired). I had the same problem at the DMV, where they put the wrong expiration name on the license by failing to add 18 months and then I had to go there again to fix it (which took around an hour too haha). I was told I could get the I 551 stamp on my passport to facilitate all this process. I am on the train back from the Chicago office for my info pass appointment to get the stamp. They told me it would not be convenient at all, because I cannot have both the stamp and the I797 at the same time, so they would have to cancel the letter for me to get the stamp, and that the stamp expires every six months so I would have to go renew it more often. Also, they said it would affect the expiration date on my license as well and that it would start expiring every six months (I wish they had told me all of this on the phone and saved me this commute lol). Anyway, just in case you were wondering if you needed to do the same, apparently getting the stamp is not the best option. I guess I'll have just have to arrive at the airport much earlier every time I travel from now on...

    Yup, try to change it at the interview (not after!). You can also try to make an InfoPass appointment if available in your field office) to try to update the name beforehand. No harm in trying.
     
    If the green card is issued in the maiden name, you would have to file an I-90 if you want to change it (including paying the fee to do so).

    The marriage certificate would have been an enough document for a name change. If you wanted the EAD/AP and GC to be under your surname you should have used it on the application forms. I guess you can try to request the name change during the interview but I have no idea how likely the IO will grant it. Best of luck!
