Has anyone needed to renew their wife's Chinese passport since she has been in USA? If what is the process. She wants to visit family in china and her passport expired

My wife went to a local public health department , they gave her a "yellow Vaccination" shot record after updating her vaccinations , we than went to the CS and a nurse transferred the vaccination shots and dates to the I 693A form and had the CS sign the form . I than took the I 693A to my green card interview appointment. In the case of her 14 year old son, the Public Healthe Department took his Chinese red book record of shots and put them in the yellow shot record , updated his shots in the USA and the Civil Sergeon accepted the I 693A and signed.

HI All!! Does anyone know if I have to file a "separate" I 485 and G325 Biographic both for my wife's K-2 Visa son? I have the forms for the wife. Also do I submit the applicaton fee of $325 for just the wife ?

What is the general timeline to file for Change of Status after marrying one's SO for a K-1 Visa . We got married within the 90 days of the I-94. Is there a deadline to file the paperwork after the marriage in the USA?

I agree supplemental information should be given on an attachment . better to let the Consulate have it , than for them to ask for it

Sounds like all your bases are covered. Relationship proof should provide proof of "ongoing" realtionship so have information that proves relationship over the time you have known your SO

I also was not there for my SO interview , however, I do feel if your SO level of confidence is there, she will do o.k. I really think if one cannot be there that you get your SO prepared to handle any question. I also found it helpful that she understand a "blue slip" is just another need for further proof to overcome. It was not the end of the world if she got one. I think this helped her be a little more relaxed. However, as it turned out only 5 questions were ask at the interview and she was given a red form approval

I personally think it is a good idea to "sprinkle" a little words about little things you found out about each other, for example "She likes the color blue" these sort of small statments I feel help the Consulate to understand that the both of you must communicate to get to know some little details and personal likes and dislikes . After all they are looking for to see if the two of you can communicate .

You should know you name check are all completed when GZ puts you in their computer as eligible for Interview , than you will receive your P4 interview date and letter

MY interview went the same , no evidence was asked, no photos, no I 134 , no emails, no chats , nothing . Which only proves that the initial application if coherent and carefully done can perhaps save many headaches down the road to obtaining a visa......

What I did was fill in my answers in English , emailed to SO in China she than filled out her part in Chinese. But I followed the example on the internet . I do not think it is a big deal , if and when they also want it in Chinese be prepared at least to provide the info.

It will be over in 15 minutes for the interview ,,,,no worry

Along with the good advice you have received here , I write a cover letter with your I-129F that explains what is included in the Affidavit, use tabs to indicate the identification of documents in the Affidavit , it is also helpful to provide an exhibit list. I agree that the "How We met Letter" is crutial and really introduces you and your SO to the Immigration Officer who reads it so be pay extra attention to this letter.

Yes, your P4 is next , means your in the system and eligible for interview

Good luck with the interview , prepare , prepare prepare
