Huh? After I am naturalized, I get my child a US passport before I file N-600?

That's not in the instuctions for children/US passports

US Citizenship General DiscussionUS Citizenship for a Canadian Child
I have spent most of the morning researching this, and I've come up empty.

I plan on filing N-400 when I'm eligible to. According to the USCIS website and eligibility tests, my child is not eligible to be naturalized, and I don't understand why.

I checked the info on the N-600, but in the instructions, she is not eligible for that either because she is the step-child of a US Citizen, and there is no way her bio father would ever let her step-father adopt her.

Does anyone know how a minor child can get citizenship?

Any advice or experiences would be helpful!

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionFiling I-751 for a child
So, bascially removing the conditions for my child is kind of like when we filed the I-129F? She was included on mine and obtained the K2 status from me?

Sorry, I am a little confused...

Do I pay the fee for her as well if she is added on my I-751?

Yes, you add your daughter to your application.

And you should answer the questions on the form as if it were just for yourself, but then you add your daughter's name in the appropriate spot on the form.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionFiling I-751 for a child
First: I know that I have a while before I remove conditions. I am just pooling info for when I do remove conditions.

I know that for myself I need to file the I-751 with my husband to remove conditions.

On the I-751 (Part 2) Basis for petition- I check (a.) because it's based on Marriage.

Does my daughter get included on mine (she will be 9 when we remove conditions) or do I have to file a seperate I-751 for her? (Part 2) Basis for petition (b.) says a child who entered as a conditional perm resident..but she didnt enter as a perm resident, she entered as a K-2

So, do I include her on mine or file her own and pay seperate fee's? :help:

HELP

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionCan't Trust USCIS
Yodrak-

That info was in my timeline :P

tamz,

You didn't mention either of these things in your post asking the question. You said she was a K2, but you didn't say when she entered or, most important, when she was granted LPR status.

Yodrak

Ok, What additional info is needed to get the proper advice?

-my daughter entered the US on K-2 when I entered on K-1.
-my daughter was granted CPR same day as I was granted CPR.
-...

Any other info needed?

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI-751 Documents to remove conditions
I wanted to include our daughter because she will be the first child born from our marriage, and it shows my husband and I still have a strong and valid marriage. (Not to mention that it took us over a year to get pregnant and we're both over joyed at her up comming arrival)

I think I'll include her, and im sure the immigration officers who proccess our application will see her DOB, and will accept a copy of the hospital certificate. I have pictures of my husband and I putting the nursery furnature together, pictures of him admiring the baby items and the ultrasound pictures.

If I get a RFE after submitting the I-751, hopefully her birth certificate will have arrived, and I can send it in with little delay in the proccess.

For First question, why not file the I-751 before birth, the forms need to list children before filing not after.


If I send my I-751 before she is born isnt that too soon? She will be born before the 90 days immediately before the 2nd anniversary of getting conditional residence so I'll be required to include her even tho she will be less then 2 weeks old when I file.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI-751 Documents to remove conditions
It's been a long time since I've posted on VJ, I feel like a noobie all over again. lol

While getting my daughter ready for her flight to visit her father in Canada, I realized that our conditional green cards expire April 10th, so I need to send I-751 by January 10th.

I printed out the instructions and have started gathering my documents so my husband and I can file the I-751, but I have a few questions/concerns

First, I am 34 weeks pregnant, but I am being induced on Dec 28th. I doubt I'll get her birth certificate in time, even if I mail it right after she's born..what can I send in the birth certificates place?

Second, I've ordered 2005, 2006 tax transcripts from the IRS, do I need to or should I also send in W2s and 1040's with it or is the transcript alone enough?

Third, If I read the instructions correctly, my K2 daughter (age 9) can be included on our joint I-751 and I only have to pay the bio fee, not an additional application fee for her, is this correct?

Other then joint bank accounts, tax transcripts, credit cards, car titles, insurance, cell phone bill, power bill, and few other utitities in both our names..am I forgetting anything important?

Thanks

This is not on topic, but you guys have really nice video pics. How'd you do that? Just to put a simple picture on, I keep getting the message that the file is too large. Any suggestions?


I used Paint Shop Pro, and reduced the picture sizes and resolution, then created it as a slide show with the effects between each photo.

So I called the IRS (800) 829-1040, and listened to the automated prompts so I could order Transcripts like I had for my AOS proccess, and the automated options for ordering them isn't there!!

Did the options change or has the number to call changed?


Did you try calling back and speaking with a representative? I'm pretty certain you can talk to someone and ask them how to order your transcripts.



Yes, I called before and spoke with a rep, asked her to send me a tax return transcript and she sent me a print out, but it doesnt even have tax year on it, almost like she brought our file up on her computer and printed it out. Even has commands on the bottom like [esc] to return, [enter] to access.
It looks nothing like the transcripts I was sent for the AOS proccess.

I had the same thing happen. My daughter got an extention letter but I didnt recieve one. My daughters bio appointment was 4 days after mine but I brought her to mine and they did hers as well when they did mine.
