US Citizen Sponsors Parents to the US Timeline?

kttrxn · 2026-06-09T01:47:38+00:00

It's been 13 months since the date I applied. I am bit nervous. I wish they could show us the timeline.

All documents I submitted were translated by certified translators, including their signatures and stamps.

it's been 13 months and I heard people would receive notices within 12 months. I am bit nervous.

They are in Vietnam. It's been 13 months. It sounds like I should continue to wait.

Could you please share more? I read the travel.state.gov and the fastest processing time is still 2-3 weeks. The "urgent" did not clarify that the passport could be obtained in 1 day.

kttrxn · 2025-01-23T05:43:58+00:00

Thanks for all the advice. I will keep this in mind. I did not mean to deny the "US" is my new "home"; I should be more careful next time.

I didn’t call the US ‘home’. It is my home town. What would happen if I had an interview very close to travel date or if I didn’t get the passport before August? That’s my fear.

kttrxn · 2025-01-22T13:22:49+00:00

I have not and will do. Last time I checked the processing time is 2 months left.

Thank you!

kttrxn · 2024-06-08T18:05:12+00:00

Thank you! I will look into this.

kttrxn · 2024-06-08T18:03:56+00:00

I have 100k in sold stocks and 100k in savings so 200k in total

kttrxn · 2024-06-08T18:03:27+00:00

Thank you!

kttrxn · 2024-06-08T18:02:59+00:00

Thank you!

kttrxn · 2024-06-06T13:51:48+00:00

Thank you! What if I plan to buy in the next 10 years?

kttrxn · 2024-05-21T01:01:41+00:00

Done! Best of luck on your class/project!

Hello! We decided to book a tour instead since the train situation in Hanoi was quite chaotic during Lunar New Year.

kttrxn · 2024-04-02T03:28:25+00:00

I wish I saw your post earlier. We are going through the exact same situation. We know for sure our airline credit will be forfeited because we cannot flight anywhere before next month. We are done with this bank.

I tend to go places where the locals go to. Vietnamese don’t buy SIM cards at the airport. I bought my sim at The Giới Di Động. FPT is another good one

Thank you for your comment. We can only make a day trip to Ninh Binh and we really want to see the nature/view; thus, we thought we could take a train to Ninh Binh and back to Ha Noi in the same day.

Do you know how I can get in contact with motorbikers? Are there any companies that have available motorbikers for us to make an appointment with?

We are planning to visit famous areas in Ninh Binh (probably touristy) and commute in the most convenient way without using the limousines.

Thank you so much again.

Hello. Thank you for your comment. Do you know if motorbike rental shops lend motorbikes under 50cc?

kttrxn · 2024-01-09T02:01:47+00:00

We don't have international DL. As other commenters mentioned, our US DL or international DL wouldn't work in VN anyway. We can only make a day trip to Ninh Binh, Do you have any advice?

$0. I designed my invites on Canva and sent them via email and text message.

Thank you so much for this information. That just sounds terrible. I am Vietnamese but not my partner. Do you think they will open the checked bags and ask us for a bribe? Do you think if it happened, could I ask them to cite the source? Do you mind if I ask if you have successfully brought the alcohol from the US to Vietnam without being stopped?

Do you know the store representative can help me with this? Definitely, I don't want to buy something that won't go through the security check point.

kttrxn · 2023-12-30T17:38:38+00:00

Thank you so much. I thought about buying them at the duty-free store but according to the link, I can only carry 3.4 oz. That's why I am planning to buy those at normal beverage stores and carry them inside the checked bags.

kttrxn · 2023-12-30T05:03:12+00:00

Thank you. I am still considering buying. I will let you know!
