i am in Japan and i need to get my wedding translated from japanese to english.Does anyone have an idea how to do this? Can I do it and go to the consulate and get a notary stamp?

Does anyone have sample form of this??

Thanks

A month ago, i had a friend who lives in tokyo go to the us embassy and ask for the documents for me and they told him that all info was on the website and if he wants the documents, then use the net.They wouldnt give him any help besides that.Tell this isnt frustrating!!!

So, they wont give out documents or packets like you called it.

so....all i can do is use the internet and ive been doing this for months.

How do i determine or prove that i have a US domicile??Can i use my parents address, what do i need to do here??

Since, i dont know specifically what tokyo requires because they wont help me, i read that you must file everything

(I130(for her)

g325A(both of us)

ds230 for her

police reports from china and japan for her,

medical documents(from an approved hospital)

marriage cert(but i dont have it translated yet(CAN i do this and go to the consulate for notary stamp???)

passport copies/photos/

I864(but i need the file my taxes,and get her a ITTN number and then file and then get the receipt)

Hello,

I am an american and my wife is chinese, and we both live and work in japan.Shes been here for about 8 years and ive been here for 4.I want to do dfc but i am a little confused and hope of you great people can assist me.

I havent filed taxes for the last few years and I have been living and working in Japan.I recently learned that I864 only needs the most recent tax year.Do you think not filing will hurt my chances and if so, how long will it take for the irs to process my all returns so i can get a receipt???

Since i have lived in Japan for 4 years, can I be her sponsor since i am not currently living in the US???

And It looks like i need to get my wife an ITTN number ..which i was suprised since she is not a us citizen and she hasnt ever worked in the US.How long does it take to get this ittn????

Or would it better/let say faster to say she isnt working and than she is a dependent on my tax forms. So, then i only have to file my taxes.I made around $30,000us last year,so i believe we have above the poverty line.And I have saved a ton of cash as well.

I want to do DFC but in Japan, but i have to go to tokyo and i live far from there.I have a US consulate in my city but they refuse to help me with any questions or information.They told me i have to go to Tokyo or call or email them, but heres the catch, i have to pay if i want to find out any infomation from tokyo via a credit card, which i dont currently have.Last year, i could get the info free of charge but now they wont answer any questions unless i pay the tokyo embassy.

I am almost ready to file except the tax receipt since i havent filed yet.I have all the info but this.

What do you recommend i do..because if i am right , i have to send everything at once...right??

(I130, g326a, ds23o(4 parts), I129f, medical reports, police reports, birth certs/translation, wed cert/trans,

employment letter showing i have a job and im in good standing(in japan),photos,copies of our passports...so is this correct, you need to file everything at once if you file in japan?

Whats the difference if i file US?

What are my options ?? i have read countless hours of info and i still need some help or advice.....

Thanks in advance to all to help me

I wanted to know if this is legit because the websites are saying that you need 3 years worth of tax returns. So, i send only my 2005 tax stuff i wont be rejected on my I864???

thanks
