  1. Last but not least, a friend of mine with a software company based in Germany expanded by purchasing a US based one. He spends a year in the US and then alternates back to Germany for year etc.
  2. I would simultaneously apply for the greencard lottery. Doesn’t hurt.
  3. Filling out a form and having custody are two different issues. You do not need other parents consent to fill out the N-600 but you need other parents consent to apply for a passport. The N-600 form, however, does not free you from meeting the criteria of eligibility (custody).
  4. Did you bring your children on a greencard /LPR status to the US? How did you become a US citizen? Assuming you naturalized and had children on a LOR status when you did, the kids automatically become US citizens the day you naturalize. If you were a US citizen before and the children received their LPR status later, they automatically become US citizens the day the activate their greencards by entering the US. You could file for their US passports now but I would simultaneously file for their N-600‘s (as you are already in the process of). As for section 6, I printed out the forms and mailed it off.
  5. I am assuming you mailed your naturalization certificate off when you applied for your passport. I would file for your child‘s N-600 right away and apply for her passport as well. You do not need father‘s permission/consent to file for a certificate of citizenship but do need his support regarding any passport application.
  6. And don’t forget to get your son the N-600.
  7. I am a German citizen, well actually a dual citizen now. Back when my husband got orders for Germany, I had my LPR (greencard) and a German passport. The SOFA card was taped into my German passport by our local US base in Germany. So the argument you were given, is different from what I was told and experienced.
  8. I filed a mandamus for two N-600’s after our cases got stuck forever. I was very concerned about possible pushbacks but it caused the cases to finally get adjudicated.
  9. If I recall correctly, Warsaw is handling some of Moscows operations now. I would reach out to their visa section. Also, US Consulate in Frankfurt is very responsive. They may be able to point you into the right direction. Given the ongoing war, I believe Moscow reduced their activities significantly. But US citizens have been targeted for a while and I would think this is a valid argument.
  10. I can nöt help you with the answer but there is a VAWA threat here which K would highly recommend to you.
  11. We got married in the US after which I returned home and waited for the immigration process.
  12. I suggest to read this post from December/January
  13. The N-600k establishes citizenship and N-600 confirms it. Two different perspectives. You need to file the N-600 not N-600k unless State insists and USCIS confirms the error made back when son got his first US passport.
  14. My children had their oath ceremony on Monday and my son‘s account was immediately updated. However, my daughter‘s account still shows „we mailed an interview notice“. Now, the purpose of their N-600 is also because I wanted the USCIS database showing their updated status as a US citizen. Do I need to contact USCIS again so that some action is taken? At this point, I have a feeling nothing happens without any pressure or insistence on my end.
  15. It is a problem because you are not married to your second wife. Meaning if you like to bring your wife along, she wouldn’t qualify as you guys are not legally married.
  16. Zonga, I am pretty sure you need to file N-600 because you already have a US passport for her. The new proposed N-600 forms will accommodate an international address field. Being „in“ the US is a pretty confusing phrase and hence, the new forms will accommodate this. My children’s N-600 finally got approved but it took two years in California.
  17. February 2022? What is your question exactly? I am assuming you are asking if this could be a problem (married second wife before divorced from first)? Yes, if you like to bring your wife you would need to solve this issue.
  18. User, I am aware this may be the least of your concerns right now but would you mind updating us in the days, weeks to come?
  19. If I were you, I would retain an attorney and immediately peruse the legal route. 1.) file the N-600 as soon as possible 2.) challenge State Departments decision by providing the necessary documentation. Given you have more children (younger than your son?) you may want to ensure this is getting resolved as soon as possible. I do not believe this can be fixed anytime soon.
  20. Given the number of cases I recently heard about, I have a feeling State Department may have a memo out to scrutinize these cases more thoroughly.
  21. This is interesting because I have seen 3+ cases on this and the other big immigration forum raising this issue. You are not the only family who is going through this right now. The N-600 would be the correct form to apply for. Do not use CA if possible as wait times are ridiculously long. We waited over two years for my children‘s N-600 and they have a similar case. I am surprised State Department revoked the US passport. The day of receiving the citizenship NOT your continued residence matters.
  22. I filed two n--600 petitions 12 months ago for both of my children. I have yet to hear anything back other than a receipt notice. Is there anyway I can find out which field center is behind the IOE case number'? I am wondering why it takes so long.
