  1. I sure did not bring mine! (nor did I say anybody else bring his/hers). Disclaimer: this was in NYC, where they are too-swamped-to-care-about-stuff (as per the lawyer). Idaho, otoh, may be different.
  2. No idea about children (I never desired, nor had one :-)). But I have seen several questions about them in this forum.... You may want to search a bit (also on reddit - with the caveat that I have seen answers there which are HIGHLY inaccurate).
  3. a) yes - 1st passport from the embassy/consulate in Athens. b) where did you get the idea I did not wait for the oath ceremony? Of course I did. This is where I got my naturalization certificate (which I needed in order to apply for the passport).
  4. No, you are good (for your peace of mind, google "continuous residence naturalization". Also read here https://www.visajourney.com/guides/us-citizenship-requirements/ (under Residence and Physical Presence)) Make sure the trips are disclosed (the form asks about them - including dates).
  5. Because I naturalized last August (you probably recall what was going on with passports, and appointments thereof, at the time...)
  6. Here (and this happened at a time when it was still taking months from within the US): You can also double-check on Reddit: embassies are, for some weird reason, known for quick turnaround times (essentially, they treat every passport issuance request, as an urgent one).
  7. @Crazy Cat ...you need to add this link to the previous ones https://www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/western-hemisphere-travel-initiative
  8. I tend to do this to those that ask what a term means, instead of googling it. Or anything that is trivially searchable, really... You are very welcome.
  9. I do not know about your country, but I did it in mine. First-time passport, like you. They made a copy of the naturalization document (ie they did not keep it, à la stateside). Received the passport in 8 days (did not request any special handling. They even told me it will be ready in about a month). The hardest part was getting an appointment (they have an online system for that).
  10. I am assuming you are behind a computer, my good sir... The link may say so, but google is your friend. The whole thing is trivial to look up (I just reconfirmed. Also, apologies, but I cannot be doing this work for others).
  11. The OP's wife does not have any visa. She needs only 1 visa for the Common Travel Area. Whichever country they land at, first.
  12. Note that the link above contains false info (ie that it applies only to Indian + Chinese citizens. It does not)
  13. Definitely not true https://www.dfa.ie/media/embassyindia/ourservices/bivs-faq.pdf and https://www.irishimmigration.ie/coming-to-visit-ireland/british-irish-visa-scheme/
  14. 3 hours in NYC? I did it last summer... I cannot imagine how 3 hrs would be possible (I am not saying they were rushing things, but it was clear nobody wanted to waste time either). Do you care to share what happened? Did you take the ceremony-in-a-courthouse option (which I heard is longish)?
