    Hello,

    I am a USC naturalized filing for an I-130 for my husband. I have been working on the application since 2 months and just today I had completed everything and assembled all the evidence and paperwork. I just realized that our marriage certificate only has my husband's first name on it, however has my correct fist and last name. With the state of things due to the pandemic *in India, if i tried to make corrections to the marriage certificate, it will take another couple of months...

    My husband's name is written correctly on his passport, on our consular report of birth abroad (daughter's birth certificate), on his German student visa, on his UAE visas though. 

     

    How should I proceed? Appreciate any advice.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    What embassy/consulate should I chose? For IR1 visa category.

    Hello all,

     

    I am unsure about what consulate to chose when completing my I-130. My husband (beneficiary) holds an Indian citizenship, however he currently resides in Struttgart, Germany because he is pursuing his MBA. He is on a student visa that is valid till September 2021. Should I chose the consulate of his home country (Mumbai, India) or should it be where he currently resides. 

     

    Thanks in advance!

    Should I petition I-130 through direct consular filing or mail my application to lockbox?

    Hello, 

    Apologize ahead of time for the long post, however, I want you guys to have a clear picture of my situation.  I want to know if my situation would warrant a direct consular filing in New Delhi, India office?

     

    I am a US citizen married to an Indian citizen (husband). We have a daughter together (5 years old), a US citizen. I and my daughter hold an OCI visa in India. 
     
     I had traveled to Chennai on February 29, 2020 to visit my in-laws and we anticipated a family reunion with my husband in March 2020. My husband is currently located in Germany on a student visa because he was pursuing his MBA in international management at a university; he was in his last semester of the program.  Due to the pandemic, he was unable to complete his MBA thesis and graduate on time. In addition, due to the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic and closure of country borders, he is uncertain if he will be able to return to Germany to complete his degree if he left the country. 
     
    On the other hand, I decided to stay in India with my in-laws until the pandemic was under control. Repatriation flights were available, however; I was frightened to travel by air with my 5-year old daughter. It would be extremely difficult to make a young child wear a mask, gloves and face shield in a long haul flight across continents. I did not want to risk her safety on a 16 hour journey with connecting flights in different cities.  I chose to stay in India until it is safe for me and my daughter to fly back home to Texas. Me and my daughter are unable to travel to Germany to meet my husband due to the above reasons as well as Germany closing its borders to Americans for short term visits . At this time, the situation looks bleak (high volume of corona virus cases in both Chennai and in my hometown Houston, Texas). 
     
    I can mail my entire application to the consulate in New Delhi. Or if there is any other options, I am willing to pursue.
