I just filled out application and sent. Now I received below appointment notice for biometrics. Its asking for us to scheduled biometric services appointment before arriving at an Application Support Center (ASC). But my kids are 5 years old and 8 years old. Do they need to do this ? What should we do for this?

Hi, As the US citizen father. Do I have to complete this? Coz the main reason we had to file is I-130 is that I did not complete required physical presence in USA at the time my son born.

Hi, On top of In each and every page its is asking A number? What is it ?

"Have you ever abandoned or lost your LPR status?" What do we have to answer for this question? Once he has issued a US passport is the LRP status getting lost ?

Father - US citizen before the kids were born. Mother - Is a current US green card holder. Two Kids are 5-year-old and 8-year-old. They have been Issued IR2 Visa and they had I-551 stamp on their foreign passport. We all admitted to USA on same day May 2025. So as soon as kids admitted they automatically acquire U.S. citizenship, right? Because they are living with their parents? So that means they are not LPR ?

Hi, But IR2 visa category says minors under 18 years old automatically acquire U.S. citizenship after admission to the United States if they reside in the United States with their parents. So is that means they are not LPR but they were citizens?

Hi, what kind of explanation are they looking for here?

Thank you. How to answer for this question? do I have to enter the date of port of entry and the location here?

Hi, I am a US citizen father, and my two kids are born abroad. we have gone through the I-130 process and as soon we came to USA I applied kids US passports. and both kids received their US passports. Now I am trying to fill the N-600 form for kids and its asking a question Have you ever been a lawful permanent resident (LPR)? What do I have to answer to this question? coz they never received a green card and we didn't pay green card fees. But their foreign passport has I-551 stamp. Is this means they are LPR ?

We have gone through I-130 process and just got the visa for wife and two kids. (below 18 years old) they have I-551 stamp on their foreign passports. Question is how do I apply certificate of citizenship for my two kids ? What process involved ?

I applied for immigration visa for my wife and two children. Separate filling. Children going to be US citizens after landing in USA.

As a sponsor how much income we need show according to poverty guidelines (as a percentage )?

To be more specific. I am referring to the public schools in Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District (Isd) in Cypress, Texas. Sampson Elementary (4.9 Miles) is the best rated school. But the closest one is the Robison Elementary (3.6Miles).

I would like to enroll my two children to a high rated elementary school in my school district. Can we select the school we want to enroll them in ? The closest one is not rated good.

I think 4 months perfectly ok. This was about 5 months after I got my GC I went back to the country where I came from, and I stayed about 5 and half months there. When I come back the immigration officer Chinese looking lady asked me why I stayed this long. I said I had some private work. she did not like my answer and threatened me if she wants, she can get my green card back and sent me back if she wants. And more she told me if I want to stay in USA stay here and if you want to stay in Sri Lanka stay there and don't come back. She can say that and get my green card coz at that time I didn't had much ties to the USA. But since you are her husband living in USA, I think they cant turn her back. Coz after the above incident I stayed about 1 year developed my ties with USA and went back to Sri Lanka and stayed there about 4 months every year (just to pass the winter season in USA) and I had no issues no questions asked by anyone.

Hi, congratulations! I have few questions if you can answer. Why did they ask your husband to provide proof of domicile at the interview ? I am also a petitioner and I have been living in Sri Lanka since 2012. NVC asked me to supply proof of domicile and I have given my Mortgage Statement (USA) and Business Bank Statements (USA) and brief explanation that I am planning to go back to USA with my family once the visa issued. NVC has accepted it. So now my wife waiting for an interview letter. I am wondering if they will ask me to go back to USA to establish domicile ?

Are you still waiting for an interview date ?

Thank you all. Its accepted.

Today I received Documentary Qualified Message from NVC. Waiting for Interview date now.

As a proof, latest mortgage payment statement, Business Bank account statement, Personal Bank account statements going to be enough?

Yes I have my US business tax documents, Business Bank accounts and Personal Bank Account in USA.

[You might not have a principal residence or be domiciled in the United States. Please submit proof of domicile. For more information on domicile requirements, visit https://nvc.state.gov/fin.] I received the above message after I submitted my documents to nvc. I am living out of USA since 2012 up to now. But I have a house mortgaged in USA and currently one of my friend is living there and he is co-sponsoring my wife. I am planning to go with my family and start living there. So how should I reply to above message ?

How to make sure its connected ?

I petitioned for my two children and wife. So, I have 3 separate cases opened. Since I am a US citizen my two biological children will be us citizens upon entry. I just submitted my wife's civil documents to NVC. What should I do for two children? can I submit their IV doc to NVC now or should I wait till wife gets her visa stamp? We are planning to immigrate together.

No. Today morning submitted my documents.
