IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresChanging address while living abroad (split topic)

 

Congrats! How did you change your address?  I have been trying to change my address and it is nearly impossible.  The call center does not have a person there to answer questions or to change your address.  I cannot ask for the AR 11 because there is a very good chance it wouldn't reach us. 

Hi, and happy birthday to your little one! :) :)

 

I changed it all online on the gov.com website. there is a place to make a change of addy:

I hope this helps! I think you should be able to do it all online. I did it on my smartphone actually, and it worked thankfully with no problems.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresHelp .....affidavit of support using assets only

Hi, I am in (almost) the same boat and have asked questions on here with one response. I am the petitioner and I have about 63k to support my hubby but don't own a house or anything else. I was just transferred to the NVC stage so I haven't started my paperwork. I was wondering how your case is going and if you had luck with assets only?

best of luck!


sorry, with *no response.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAffidavit of Support Co Sponsers, change of address and change of employment

Lets get the semantics out of the way first:

  • You will require a joint sponsor, not co-sponsor.
  • You do not have a joint "app," you filed a petition, your husband will submit an application.

 

Now to address your questions.  A qualified joint sponsor must have income, assets, or a combination of both that meet or exceed the required threshold for their household size which will include the intending immigrant.

 

If you have not yet submitted the DS-260, then you don't need to worry about your husband's address change at this juncture, you (or he) will simply input his new address on the DS-260 when that time comes.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMoving Residence before NOA2

what possible bad effects can happen if the petitioner moves their residence before NOA2? 

 

None.  As others have states, you just need to inform USCIS of your new address so they can correspond with you appropriately.  People move for various reasons all the time, this is a non-issue.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresExpedite at NVC?

call them,  ask for tier 2 person and request one. You need a good reason for the expedite, they don't give them just because you want one

 

There are no "tier 2" people at the NVC which is what the OP is asking about.  The OP could make a request with the first person they spoke with.  If they didn't like what the person told them, they could then ask to speak to a supervisor.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresquestions about forms (merged topic)

Dear Ryan H

Thank you for kindly. I have some more questions about G-325A.

 

 Im japanese female and my husband is US citizen.

1. All other names used(include names by previous marriages)

>> Do I need to write my name before marriage? I mean my japanese last name.

     Does my husband need to write anything or blank on his form?

 

 

2. Applicants Residence last five years. List present address first.

>>I finished writing last five years address and still have some more space. Do I need to write N/A or leave it       blank?

 

 

3. Applicants employment last five years.

>>I didnt understand if I write here the company name or employer name. plus address?

  There is only a little space. Do I need to attach another paper to show it?

 

I am gald if someone help me. Thank you

 

More answers:

  1. Yes, you write your name before marriage in the "other names used" box.  If you husband has not officially gone by other names, then there would be nothing for him to write on his form.
  2. Having extra space is not an issue.  Once the question is accurately answered, you are good.
  3. If the given space is insufficient, then write "see attached" on the form itself and use a supplemental sheet to write the complete address.  When using a supplemental sheet be sure to indicate which question on the form the information corresponds to.

17.List spouse and all childrean of your relative

>>Is this about US citizen husband?


 

That question is being posed to your US husband.  He would answer it in this manner: he would list his name again and indicate that he is your spouse.  If you have any children, then they are listed here as well (this is done regardless if they are immigrating or not).

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresSeverely Confused!

We should pay our fees when invoiced and keep hold of the bar code sheets for the IV and AOS packages

I should complete DS-261 ONLINE on the CEAC website and elect my wife as choice of agent

My wife will submit the AOS via post NVC

I should complete DS-260 (IV Application) ONLINE on the CEAC website and keep hold of the confirmation for my interview at the Embassy in London

I should then submit outstanding civil documents via post to the NVC who will then complete the file and forward to the consulate

 

The above is what you will be doing.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresName change on passport

So.....my petition was accepted on January 30th (Initial review currently) I'm going to see my husband on May 14th. So....I wanted to wait to change my last name until I come back. Or should I wait until the process is over? Would this slow the process at all? Or would I have to let them know and send any additional paperwork.

 

Changing your name is your own choice, it has no effect on this process in any way, shape, or form.  The posts in this thread that suggest otherwise are grossly incorrect, you can do it at anytime you want.
