    Have you updated the tracking sheet? I couldn't find your name on either of the May 2017 tracking sheets. When did your send your package, when did you do your biometrics etc? This will help us provide you with some answers to the questions asked.

    I didn't fill out the tracking sheet yet but all informations are on signature.... :)

    It is that easy.   It's cheaper to get a passport.  The N-600 is optional and expensive.

     

    Google "Child Citizenship Act."  Citizenship is automatic; meaning nothing has to be filed.  Getting a US passport or the N-600 Certificate of Citizenship is good proof of having US citizenship, but neither is actually required. 

     

    CCA 4 requirements;

    1.  Child has USC parent; 

    2   Child resides with USC parent;

    3.  Child is under age 18;

    4.  Child has LPR status.

     

    Mom is the qualifying USC.  Stepparents don't count for derivative citizenship.  You would have to adopt before age 18 to pass US citizenship to your adopted child.

    Thank you very much for this good information!, I need it too...:)

    Anyone here who had their first marriage declared as null and void on the ground of psychological incapacity of the ex? Did SLEC still require you to undergo the psychological exam even though the Decision state that it was your ex who was psychologically incapacitated? Thanks for your inputs on this:)

    Thanks MarkLoveTina. So, for the first time last night we had chance for a proper talk since the denial, and she's calmer now and remembered some more of what was said to her.

    About question 2. They said we are denied, but also that the only thing wrong with our application is the previous K1 application, so it will be returned to USCIS for that to be resolved. I believe then that USCIS just sits on the case and lets it expire. So then i don't think the application status is currently 'denied', it's in 'administrative review'. I don't know why they use the word Denied to her, it conveys the wrong information.

    Thank you for your responses MarkLoveTina, you've been very helpful.

    #2Question- well actually on the cases like yours that i read here on VJ in the past it was sent back to the USCIS not to resolve the problem but to close your case and when it was close all u can do is to re-file another petition again... and start to 0...

    and if you choose to re-appeal your case it will gonna take long and not sure if they will grant it or not...

    and i think they said it was deny bcoz they will not really gonna issue her visa bcoz of that active petition... i know it was back 7 yrs. ago but i dont think we need to blame USCIS for all what happened bcoz honestly the petitioner or the beneficiary has the responsibility to withdraw the said previous petition and not just abandon the case...

    i hope some one here on VJ that has the same case like yours post here in your thread proofing that they were still approved after the case was sent back to the USCIS....

    So, we had a good talk last night and we are seriously considering waiting until August to see if the K1 makes any progress, and if it does not then probably it's just sitting in CSC purgatory so we will get married and filing a CR1 instead. I have not researched CR/IR1 much yet, and of course i will in coming days, so i have some questions.

    1. How do previous K1 petitions affect the CR1 application? specifically

    no.. it wont affect.. as long as u resolve the problem with the multiple k1 petition...

    2. Do we need to withdraw our K1 petition?

    your petiiton to her no... Y? bcoz it was already deny...

    1st petition from the 1st petitioner who is the X- yes u need to contact him to withdraw the petition OR she the beneficiary can withdraw that petition by sending a letter enclosing all the imp. informations from her previous K1 petition if the case was in the US Embassy stage still...

    when u file for cr1 and still that petition shows active ur cr1 will be deny too...

    3. Do we need to get the ex-fiance's K1 petition withdrawn?

    YES... bcoz it still show in their data base it is still active...

    4. From what i read it sounds like CR1 may be slower than K1 usually, but in our case i think CR1 may be faster....K1 would require us to wait for the case to expire, or take upto a year to process, and then it's possible/likely they still just mark us as denied, so 4-12 months from now we have to apply for K1 again - that seems slower than just getting married in say August and filing CR1 then. We have so much paperwork already prepared, Birth certificate, passport etc are all current now, so the application would be simpler this time. The question is what would you estimate is the approval time for K1 for us vs CR1?

    now a days K1 and cr1 has almost the same time frame even they said the K1 is more quicker than the cr1.. but u will notice on the members here on VJ those filed cr1 or k1 just have the same time frame of approval... well honestly cr1 is much better she can work when she arrived here if she wants and more way cheaper than the k1 application.. in K1 she need to adjust her status when she gets here and she cant work at once if she wants.... lots of process again to work if its K1 visa when she arrives here in the USA...

    Any other advice? Thanks

    i have the same issue with the OP, i submitted an I129f way back 2007 but they reject it because of the wrong amount of the check i sent along with the packet, i did receive a ''rejection letter'' saying that

    ''the application or pretition cannot be accepted because the proper fee is $455.00 (that time) is not attached. since the case is not properly filed, a priority or processing date cannot be assigned. Please attach a check or money order for this amount and resubmit this entire page tot he address listed below. For speed processing Please leave this notice on top.''

    and at the top of the second page it says ''Please save this notice for your records. Please enclose a copy if you have to write us or a U. S. Consulate about this case,

    or if you file another application based on this decision. You will be notified separately about any other applications or petitions you have filed.''

    They sent back the entire packet. I got a receipt number ''WAC xxxxx" in this rejection notice.

    I am worried now as i did not contact the embassy or immigration about this. I did not re-file because i found out that my ex in Philippines was living with another guy. i didn't do anything i just kept the ''rejection notice'' and i found the woman of my life now and about to send the I129f packet..

    Would this be a problem?

    thank you all for the help

    nop bcoz ur previous file was rejected... no petition to withdraw...

    oh yeah i am sorry, for the OP i missed that info. too... above posters are right, i agree with them... if the previous petitioner petitoned another filipina/ foreigner to go here then that petition might be cancelled too... i dont know if the case is like cr1 he change route for example if that petition can be approve even there is an active or abandoned K1.... because what i know if there is a denied K1 and they change their mind and do the cr1 route the couple doesnt need to withdraw the k1... uhmmm hope u get a good answer from the US Embassy, PH regarding ur inquiry... pls. let us update...
