IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresWife Name
If she is going to change her name then I'd do it in her married name. Her green card will be in the name in her passport, that's why I asked. Have her get her passport changed before you get to the NVC, as they want a copy of the biographical page.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMy situation -- what's the best course
yes final the inital paperwork so it gets moving. As well find someone to be a co sponsor so you have that in place when you get to that stage.
sdwFemaleCanada2010-02-05 08:48:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresMy situation -- what's the best course
You will most likely need a co sponsor. You don't need to send in I864 until you at the NVC stage.

No problem, feel free to ask anything else you need.

I sent in affidavits from friends with my I130, and it approved fine. If anything else is requested they will lwt you know.

1. In form DS-3032 (Choice of Address and Agent): Who was appointed? Your wife came to a service agent in VN to do it?
I appointed my USC husband

2. Should we really need petitioner's birth certificate on the interviewing day? (US Passport and Naturalization Cert can be substituted?)
On interview day no, you need to provide proof of citizenship with the I130

3. Could you please tell me how you did all the paper work? Or show me how you did it?
We followed the guides, and asked questions here.

Take as much proof of ties as you can. No one can tell you for sure if you will be let it as it's up to the CBP. Always be truthful and I find it does help when the CBP knows you have knowledge of the proper steps to gain LPR status.


I am not sure about wait times for DFC, so I can't help you there.

You don't HAVE to, however if your passport has your maiden name that is what your visa and green card will have. Hopefully someone can let you know how hard it maybe to change once in the US.
