  1. Hummm....thanks for the answers. Interesting way to keeping track but it seems like you can't have as many unique names in this way. And it has got to be interesting with cultural names from foreign countries.

    That said, I think it is great that Germany at least supplmements the income of every mother and child.

  2. My friend recently moved to Germany and was telling me that if you have a baby in Germany that you have to give it a German name. What?? Is this true or is she misinformed? And something about having to show it was a boy's name vs. a girl's name. I was totally surpised and caught off guard on hearing this.

    So just curious, is this true? You really have to find an authentic German name for a newborn?

  3. Yup, the K-3 visa is a multiple entry visa. If you look at the actual visa, I think you will even see "M" noting that fact.

    Answer on USCIS website too:

    "Can I Travel Outside the United States?

    If you are in K-3 or K-4 status, you may travel using your unexpired K-3/K-4 nonimmigrant visa to travel outside of the United States and return, even if you are applying for adjustment of status simultaneously."

    P.S...a little scary that the person you talked to couldn't find this info!!

  4. Excellent question. I was just wondering that myself. I could have sworn (but don't count on this...I have to find the email first) that I emailed the Germany Embassy and they said that if the person had a I551 stamp or or permanent residency card in the US, that they did not reqire a visa. I was sent a PDF of some inter office memo, and now if I could just find it......

  5. Wow, I didn't realize policies can change!!!

    I think my point was that it did NOT work for my cousin to have only a co-sponser and to show himself as having no income and what the attidtude of the Indian Embassy was at that time.

  6. I assume you are not a natural born citizen of the US and gained citizenship through Naturalization. There is a certificate that you receive when you become a US citizen, and they are asking for a copy of this (as proof of your citizenship) for your wife's interview.

    Don't worry that the certificate says you are not supposed to make copies of it. I found out that it is ok to make copies if the copies are for US govt. use.

  7. Yes, I would see if immigration has anything to say about it. Or if anyone on VJ has experienced this lately

    Several years ago, my cousin's wife was asked in her Delhi interivew to provide support for her visa. She had only the co-sponsor's paperwork (a blood Uncle) and the CO asked her if her husband was going to feed and clothe her or did she expect her husband's uncle to do it? She was asked to come back for a second interview, with proof of sponsorship from her husband and not just a co-sponsor. Snotty huh? Maybe things have changed over the years or the sponsorship requirements have....

    Did your fiancee fill out an tax returns at all? Does she work in the school library or anything? Anything she can show for finances is probably a good idea (regardless of how little it might be).

    Good Luck!!
