Hi Pixie77,

Congratulations on getting your daughter’s passport. I am not sure if this thread is still active and I am hoping that you will respond. 
 

I am in the same situation as yours and we submitted our application yesterday. My daughter is 16 and we both applied for a passport for the first time. On her DS-11, the employee at the USPS had her sign yhe form. Should I have signed the form as well as guardian? The employee didn’t ask me to. Did you sign her DS-11 when you applied for your child’s passport? Both our application is in one packet. We have all copies of her school I.D, permanent resident card and my driver’s license. We also sent the original permanent resident card. 

My daughter is also under my sole custody. Her father and I never married and she never provided support. She only signed the birth certificate as the father. My daughter’s last name is using my maiden last name. She was born in the Philippines and we both immigrated here in the U.S. together when my husband petitioned us. We didn’t have any issues immigrating as I have submitted affidavits of sole custody and illegitimacy. I have enclosed in the passport application all these original documents as proof. I even enclosed a copy of Republic Act 9255 explaining that children are under the parental consent of the mother and the Citizenship Act of 2000 explaining children under 18 will derive citizenship automatically from Naturalized parent. I hope that we will not have any issues.
 

Would you be able to point me about the decided case you found and what did you do to get your daughter’s passport after all the hassle that you went theough? I would really appreciate the response. 
 

Any advice? Please help. 

Hi. I’m a permanent resident holding a ten year greencard. I recently got divorced and I petitioned for my name change which was approved and mentioned on the divorce decree. I already had my ssn, driver’s license, bank accounts, etc changed back to my maiden name except my greencard. I am eligible for citizenship on February 2019 since I will meet the 5year rule by May 2019. Should I change my greencard name now using form I-90 and pay almost $500 or should I just wait until I apply fof citizenship next year? Would there be any issues if I wait until I apply for naturalization? Please help.
