    in US Citizenship Case Filing and Progress Reports

    Posted

    Haven't updated for a while.

    So I passed the test and on Friday saw an update that said Oath Ceremony Notice Was Mailed. Checked on my USCIS account it will be on Nov 9th.

     

    I read the notice it didn't mention bringing guest(s). Am I allowed to bring guests? I looked up the address it is like 3-hour drive to there and it is in a courthouse. 

     

    I really want my husband and our 4-year-old son to witness that, but first, they didn't mention whether I can bring guests or not. Second, since our son is autistic, so he might not be willing to sit still, I'm afraid they gonna kick us out of the ceremony.

     

    So I might need some advice here. Should I call the field office to ask about that?

    I wish you the best. Alcohol issues are absolutely awful, and my wife (a very loud Guangdong/Cantonese lady) would also NEVER put up with alcoholism in the family so I can understand you ☹️  BTW I'm sorry if I sound ignorant on this topic, but does HK have any consulates in the USA? If they do, you may want to ask them about your situation, especially any issues involving citizenship of your child.

     

    Sometimes I miss our time in HK so much. My wife has family that lives in Tseung Kwan O (part of her family left the mainland for HK many, many years ago), some of the best memories of my life were the time we spent over there.

     

    I wish you the best of luck and hope that things work out for you and your family 🙏

    Yes we do have a us consulate there in Hong Kong. Maybe I can email them asked them about it. 
    from all the comment you guys gave to me seems like my son just has the us citizenship. But not hurt to ask :)

    My wife is from mainland China, but because our kid was born AFTER she got her US green card, our kid is NOT considered to be a Chinese citizen. So our kid needs a tourist visa or family reunion visa to go back to China. And this is great, since my wife will be applying for US citizenship next year so we will all have the same citizenship/passport.

     

    If our child were born on Chinese soil in the US before my wife got her green card, our child would have been considered a Chinese citizen, at least until the age of 18. I'm not sure if this is the same in HK.

     

    With regards to taking the kid back to HK... it'd be better if you had the explicit permission of the father. If you took the child back without the permission of the father, it's technically international kidnapping/abduction. HK/China are not part of the Hague Convention so take that news however you may. 


    My advice? See a marriage counselor. With the way things are going in HK I have no idea why you'd be going against traffic.

    That’s very true. I never thought about the explicit permission. Thanks for remind me that! And yea things are still messy back in Hong Kong. 
     

    Just out of topic, im not sure if I want to save this marriage cos I gave him so many chance to get sober and he’d never listen to me and lately he even started abuse me. :(

    Slightly complicated - Dual Nationality (US / Chinese) isn't allowed post 1997 per PRC.  So the child isn't Chinese. Since the child wasn't born in Hong Kong (and doesn't / hasn't / won't live there for 7 years) there is not right to abode.

     Thank you!

    so here is a tricky question. 
    my husband and I aren’t doing so well (relationship wise). So if we happened to get divorce and I decided go back to Hong Kong, am I able to take our son with me back to Hong Kong?

    So me (from Hong Kong, a permanent resident in usa) and my husband (us citizen) have a child (he’s 29 months old now)

     

    id like to ask… obviously he is a USA citizen, but is he a Hong Kong citizen as well since I am a Hong Kong citizen?  And if so, what I need to do or where I should contact to get a Hong Kong passport or ID for our son? Do we need to back to Hong Kong for this?

    Hi everyone, I am July 2020 filer. Today is the 8th day from delivered date of my I-751 package but I have not heard anything from USCIS. I see a lot people got text/money charged around 3-7 day after delivered date. I wonder if I filed my I-751 properly. I and my spouse signed and dated the form 4 days earlier than 90-day filing period. Anyone did the same, already got text/ money charged, please share with me. I am a little nervous now. I sent my package to Phoenix, AZ lockbox via USPS. Thanks in advance.

     

    I mailed out the 751 on May 23 and received email and SMS on May 29.   And the money order being cashed on Jun 1.

    I just sent the print out of the screen showing both our names and the address on it. It had one month’s statement on it. We’ve had a joint account since before we were married. We didn’t get an RFE so they obviously thought it was enough. Just make sure there’s enough different sources of proof of joint finances such as shared bills, loans and mortgage or rent. The combination should be enough. 


    thanks! We have two cars that has both of our name as owners. Do I just Use the car insurance as evidence or also need the titles?
