申请绿卡,工卡和回美证

作者:铿锵玫瑰

转换身份拿绿卡(AOS)

K1拿到certified marriage certificate之后,准备好以下文件就可以申请AOS了。一般来说,建议在94卡到期前递交申请,保持合法的居留身份。但如果由于某些原因,耽误了申请也不必过分慌张。

需要注意的是,如果94卡过期后180天才递交申请,就不要使用AP进出美国,法律规定逾期居留180天,将受到3年不得再进入美国的惩罚。

至于K3有两种情况:可以选择在在签证有效期内转换身份或回广州面谈取得移民签证。如果选择回广州,就要注意与签证中心联系。

申请最好用certified mail with return receipt寄出。

申请地址(2005年4月1日后)

邮寄地址(USPS)如下﹕

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

P. O. Box 805887

Chicago, IL 60680-4120

快递邮寄地址如下(FEDEX, DHL, UPS等)﹕

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services

427 S. LaSalle, 3rd Floor

Chicago, IL 60605-1098

注意事项

o 在每份材料的右上角写上自己的名字和A号码,以防遗失。

o 把寄出的每份文件都做拷贝,自己留底,包括支票。

o 移民中心接受私人支票,Money Order或Cashier’s Check。抬头写US Department of Homeland Security。

o 每份费用一张支票,如485费用,指纹费,工卡费,AP费等。

o 同步申请的话,所有申请可以放在同一个信封。

Notarized I-864完成的864经济担保书

(在页的当中)

1. Copy of passport for the sponsor担保人的护照。

2. Proof of sponsor’s employment 担保人的雇主信。样板:

引言回复:

February 31, 20xx

Re: Employment Verification for John Doe

Dear USCIS official:

This letter is to confirm that John Doe is employed

with us since February, 19xx on full time basis as XXX (职位).

His annual salary is $xx,000/year.

Please feel free to contact us if your office should require

any further information.

Sincerely,

3. Sponsor’s Bank Statement 担保人的银行存款证明。

4. Sponsor's tax return and W2 for last 3 years 担保人最近三年的税单和W2。(注:移民局最新规定,只需1年税单和w2。)

5. Other financial evidences 其他相关的担保证明(如最近的工资单pay stub,房产地契等)。

6. 注意:如果美籍配偶无法达到经济担保的要求,例如没有缴税,无法提供税单,则需要写书名声明,解释没有缴税的原因,另外找合资格的美国公民或绿卡居民作为共同担保人。共同担保人所需材料与以上所列一致。原美籍配偶担保人的864及身份证明文件仍旧需要附上。

7. 如果外籍配偶已经在美超过6个月,那么外籍配偶的个人资产也可以通过864A包括在经济担保内。

o 疫苗报告。最近(05年5月)nbc似乎已出台新规定,要求申请时就递交疫苗报告,否则将要求补材料。指定体检医生在这里找:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/exec/cs/index.asp

693附属表-疫苗表(Supplement to I-693)的链接:

http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dq/pdf/ti-03/appdx-a_693vacc.pdf

注意:K1,K3在国内已作过体检(该体检报告应已随签证包一同转往处理AOS申请的移民办公室),如果体检还在1年有效期内,只需递交疫苗报告。相关规定链接:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/i-693faq.htm

引言回复:

EXCEPTIONS:

Ks: If you were admitted to the United States as a fiance(e) (K-1), child of a fiance(e) (K-2), Spouse of a U.S. citizen (K-3), or child of K-3 (K-4), and received a medical examination prior to admission, then you do not require another medical examination as long as your application for adjustment of status (Form I-485) is filed within one year of your overseas medical examination. You will, however, be required to submit a vaccination supplement with our adjustment of status application. The vaccination supplement must be completed by a designated civil surgeon.

*如在国内已经打过疫苗,取得黄皮书,一般也应该到指定医生那里取得签名,但也有部分移民官直接承认黄皮书。

*是否应该在国内打疫苗,如果在美国的保险包括疫苗费用或者有政府的免费疫苗计划,那么可以过来美国才打。

*疫苗价格各地不一样,从几十到300多刀都可能。

*移民法规定,要获得绿卡,必须在面谈之前获得完整的免疫注射记录以及体检报告。尽管有些移民官面谈时不一定会检查,但为了保险,建议不要怕花钱,不要怕麻烦,在面谈时应该做好所有法律要求的文件。

*此外,国内做的体检报告有效期是一年,如果你的面谈日期是一年之后,需要重新做体检。但移民官有权延长有效期。

*主要的三针就是MMR,TD和CHICKEN POX,需要由移民局指定体检医生决定。

部分疫苗名称:

卡介苗 BCG 脊髓灰质炎 Poliomyelitis 百白破 DTP

麻疹 Measles 流脑 Meningitis 腮腺炎 Mumps

乙肝 Hepatitis B 风疹 Rubella 麻风腮 MMR

甲肝 Hepatitis A 伤寒 Typhoid 白喉破伤风 Td

水痘 Varicella 肺炎 Pneumococcal 乙型流感 Hib

乙脑Japanese encephalitis 流行性感冒 Influenza

*中国体检时的胸透片,如果一切正常,入境时候一般无需出示。持移民签证者入境以后就可以自己收藏当作纪念品。K签的,部分移民局指定医生会硬性要求做结核菌皮试PPD(一般应该不需要做),而且结果呈阳性反应的(由于大陆注射卡介苗,阳性反应属正常),可以告知医生小时曾注射卡介苗且出示此胸片证明身体健康。参考:如何判断阳性反应正常:

工作许可证I-765和出境请假证I-131

申请I-485时可同步申请工作许可证I-765和出境请假证I-131,或收到485收据后在网上申请(K3未与485同时或以后申请的工卡<类别A9>暂时无法网上申请)。

K3的与485同时申请的工卡c9需邮寄到处理485的移民办公室。a9工卡需邮寄至nbc处理,地址是:

Box 7218

Chicago, IL

60680-7218

工卡I-765 Employment Authorization Document(EAD)

K1持有者在94卡有效期90天内可合法工作,也有部分地区移民局会发90天有效的A6工卡(既有免费的,也有收费的)。但一般如果不着急的话,与485同步申请是比较方便的选择。

申请材料

o Check (目前是180刀)

o Form I-765 填好的765表。链接:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/i-765.pdf

o Two passport-style photos 两张外籍配偶的护照式样照片。用铅笔在其背面写上申请人的名字和A#(外国人登记号)。

o Cope of I-94 (both sides) 94卡的正反面的复印件。

o Cope of visa and U.S entry stamps K签证页和入境盖章的复印件。

o Copy of passport for the foreign spouse 外籍配偶的护照。

o Certified copy of marriage certificate 结婚证书。

工卡样本:

请假证I-131 Advance Parole (AP)

K1在等待转换身份期间要出境美国需要事先申请I-131获得advance parole。AP一般是1年多次出境有效。持有AP出境一般在有效期内没有时间限制,但需要注意两点:不能错过转换身份面谈;夫妻分居太久对证明婚姻真实性没有帮助。

而K3在签证的2年有效期内出境不需要申请此文件。参考:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/howdoi/hdiknonimm.htm#travel

引言回复:

Can I Travel Outside the United States?

If you are in K-3 or K-4 status, you may travel using your unexpired K-3/K-4 nonimmigrant visa to travel outside of the United States and return, even if you are applying for adjustment of status simultaneously.

o Check (目前是170刀)

o Form I-131 填好的131表。

链接:

o Two passport-style photos 两张外籍配偶的护照式样照片。用铅笔在其背面写上申请人的名字和A#(外国人登记号)。

o Cope of I-94 (both sides) 94卡的正反面的复印件。

o Cope of visa and U.S entry stamps K签证页和入境盖章的复印件。

o Copy of passport for the foreign spouse 外籍配偶的护照。

o Certified copy of marriage certificate 结婚证书。

AP随处理移民局的不同,从一式两份到一式四份不等。式样见下图:

网上申请

地址:https://efiling.uscis.dhs.gov/efile/

1。网上申请是马上可以拿到电子收据。

2。同时4-8周内nbc也会给您寄书面收据。

3。支持性文件,如果有同时申请485,而且nbc已经输入电脑,那么可能可以豁免重复邮寄(段璎培mm的经验)。但个人意见,根据移民局的指引,仍然应该邮寄,以免耽误申请的进度。

K2/4可以和K1/3同步或以后申请转换。

K4在申请I-485之前必须先申请I-130或抵美后与130同步申请。

K2/4的485申请要准备另外一份跟K1/3一摸一样的文件。不能省。

其他请参考K1指南

注:如果有紧急情况需要马上出境,可以在网上预约,链接:http://infopass.uscis.gov/

亲自上当地移民局申请AP。

需要出示紧急情况的证据,如一封家书,说老人身体不好,或用一份EMAIL,自己翻译一下,交上去的,另写一份非常诚恳的STATEMENT LETTER,就是说为什么你要申请AP,这里的格式只是参考,自己的要写具体一些。

并把所有的申请文件,如护照,I-94,结婚证等都附上。

有些移民局对紧急AP的发放不太严格,对证据要求不严格。有些移民局则相反,如果不是真的人命关天的事,他们就不批准。

递交申请后

递交申请后,通常4-8周内会收到回执。如果是由NBC中心处理的,可以根据回执上的档案号码查询进度。如果不是NBC处理的,目前还不可以网上查询个案进度。查询个案进度的连接:

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/caseStat.jsp

在NBC申请的案件,经过NBC的初步处理(包括指模,EAD,AP等)后,将转往地区办公室等候面谈。查询当地面谈排期的链接(看district office的时间表):

https://egov.immigration.gov/cris/jsps/ptimes.jsp

同时回执也通知了需要等待Biometric(生理特征,包括相片,签名等)和打指印的通知。

获得打指引通知以后,在指定时间带上护照和收据以及电话获得的预约号码上门打指印。

与移民局热线联系

电话是:1-800-375-5283。按次序选1-2-6-2-4-0, 可找到话务员。工作时间:周一至五,东部时间上午8点到下午6点。

临时工卡 Interim EAD

由于移民局审理进度拖延,从移民局收到指纹和全部要求资料开始算算起90天后如果还没有收到工卡,可以预约上门申请免费的临时工卡。预约链接:http://infopass.uscis.gov/

需要材料:收据,护照以及当初随765申请寄出的辅助文件。临时工卡有效期长短不等。一般是180-240天。

更新工卡 Renew EAD

工卡有效期一般1年。

工卡到期前6个月可以申请更新。考虑到有interim EAD,大概提前4-5个月申请也可以。

程序,申请材料以及费用跟首次申请EAD一样,但要附上485的收据复印件以及第一张工卡的复印件。

搬家改地址

在等待面谈过程中,如果搬家,需要及时通知移民局。分两步走。

第一步:下载AR-11表,寄到表上要求的地址:

U.S Department of Homeland Security

Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration

Change of Address

PO Box 7134

London, KY 40742-7134

如是快递公司,寄到:

U.S Department of Homeland Security

Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration

Change of Address

1084-I South Laurel Road

London, KY 40744

表格链接:

http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/ar-11.pdf

第二步:通知处理AOS申请的移民局,如果档案还在NBC,可以直接写信或打1-800-375-5283更新地址。

如果是当地移民局,建议上网预约后,亲自上门改地址。

如果是搬到别的地区移民局管辖的地方,还需要确定他们有把档案转移到新的办公室。同时,在旧的地址,除了通知邮局转信之外,最好让新的住户帮忙留意信件,这样才能确保不错过移民局的通知。

延期面谈

强烈不建议延期面谈。如果不是人命关天的理由(例如生孩子等),大部分延期要求很可能会引起移民局的注意,从而对案件特殊关注,进行特殊处理,无形中也延长等候的时间。

如果事非得已,必须确定当地移民局确实收到延期申请,最好能上网预约后亲自上门申请,带上不能出席的证据。

如果只能信件通知,最好用certified mail with return receipt,保留申请证据。然后在可以上门时尽快上门确定是否获得延期。

延期后需要等待的时间由各地移民局决定,无法预计。

转换身份面试

面谈材料清单

当初申请485的所有辅助文件,如果已交原件,那么带上复印件,否则带上所有原件。864担保书有效期是一年,面谈时应携带有效的864及最近3年的税单和w2。

提供真实婚姻的证据,如:亲朋好友证词,子女证明,共同的报税证明,蜜月旅行,共有财产,存款账户,信誉卡收条,银行信件证明等财务证明,驾照,水电费交付单,有夫妻俩人姓名和共同住址的信件及帐单,家庭相册等。

例如:

o Copies of jointly filed tax returns 共同报税单

o Copies of bank statements from the joint account 共同银行帐户证明

o A copy of the application form and 24-month residential lease for Fake Apartment 共同租约

o A copy of Fake's credit cards showing a joint account 共同信用卡帐户

o Copies of Fake energy bills for the apartment 共同的电费帐单

o A copy of the welcome letter from Fake Insurance showing a joint health insurance policy 共同的医疗保险证明

o A copy of the 401K beneficiary designation form with Xiaohong Li naming John Dow as the beneficiary 401K计划的受益人证明

o Various correspondence received by John and Xiaohong at the same address 寄给夫妇两人的信件,显示共同的住址

o Various Pictures of John and Xiaohong with their relatives and friends 亲友合照

注意事项

所有到移民局面谈的人都怀著忐忑不安的心情,什麼该说,什麼不该说,什麼该做,什麼不该做,都是我们所关心的事。至於移民官的个性以及当天心情的好坏,也是个问题。该如何準备面谈,就像準备大考一样,备极紧张。以下是我们提出的一些具体建议,希望对将去面谈的人有些用处。

1.把所有的文件、资料、移民表格完整的影印一套,以便随时提供移民官参考。

2.如果您是以「与美国公民结婚」来办绿卡,移民官将会问您一些私人的问题,您要能回答的出来。

3.遵照移民官的指示,如果移民官要单独面谈夫妻,也必须遵从。

4.仔细倾听移民官所提出的问题,而且只就问题来回答。

5.如果不会英文,一定要带一位翻译。

6.一定要衣著整齐,不可随便。

7.一定要保持镇定。如果听不懂移民官的问题,请他再重述一遍。如果不知如何回答问题,就老实承认。如果该问题是申请中的一部份,您却不知道答案,将会引起移民官的怀疑,所以面谈前应该多演练一下。

8.面谈一定要準时。如果有事不能去移民局面谈,再重约的时间可能会拖到很久之后。

9.不可跟移民官开玩笑,但保持轻鬆是需要的。

10.夫妻不可因意见不同而在移民官面前起争执。有些问题,最好事先取得共识。

11.不可跟移民官起争执。如果移民官挑剔文件不齐,把影印本给他就是了。

12.要很有耐心地回答移民官所提出的问题。即使移民官的问题已经超出其范围,仍要耐心回答。

13.绝对不可欺骗移民官而隐瞒事实。若被发现,将造成无法弥补的严重后果,针对自己无法判断的问题,最好在面谈前先咨询律师。

面谈常见问题

注意:如果担心英文不好,应该提前找到翻译,如果移民官严格的话,不会允许美籍配偶充当翻译的。

面谈后

面谈如果获得通过,移民官相信婚姻是真实的,而且背景调查,担保材料等也齐全,移民官将在护照上盖I-551章。功用与绿卡一样。其实绿卡的正式名字就叫I-551

注:目前也有部分移民局不会当场盖章而让申请者直接等待塑料绿卡。

拿到盖章或塑料绿卡后离境不超过1年,不需要申请REENTRY PEMMIT。1年以上2年以内必须申请RP。

先盖章是因为绿卡不是马上能制作出来,在制作期间,你完全可以凭有效的551章进出境。

真正的塑料绿卡和欢迎信将在1-6个月内(一般4-8周)寄到府上。

I-551章样板:

绿卡是塑料的,背后有磁条,跟驾照和ID卡或信用卡同一材料,但更为精美一些。塑料绿卡样板:

照片来自移民局官方网站。

如结婚已满2年,有可能获得的是10年绿卡,如结婚仍不到2年,获得的是2年有效的条件绿卡。

由于移民法制定不够严谨,地区移民官在判断10年绿卡和条件绿卡时,既可以用申请之日为标准,也可以用批准之日为标准,因此结婚满2年也可能只获得条件绿卡。

满足2年条件的,可以尽力争取,至于能否成功,只能听天由命。

在条件绿卡批准满二周年的前90天内,向USCIS地区服务中心申请I-751转为正式绿卡(稍后详述)。在持条件绿卡期间,享有10年绿卡的所有权益。

背景调查

由于移民局严格的背调规定,经常导致面谈通过了也无法当场获得盖章通过。

背调的时间表从几天到十几个月,很难预测。唯一能做的是多跟当地移民局及背调有关机构联系,尽力推动背调的进度。

转换身份进行的背调包括三部分:

FBI clearance from the fingerprints FBI的指纹调查,也就是常说的Name Check,有效期15个月。指纹调查的进度一般比较有效率。

"IBIS" (Interagency Border Inspection System) checks IBIS名字对照调查,有效期35天。此调查比较简单,也很快可以结束。

"IP" agency checks IP调查,亦即以前所称CIA调查,终身有效。这是最麻烦的一项,而且移民局也不再公开承认有这项调查。
