| 5. How many applications
am I permitted to submit ?
Each individual is limited to ONE APPLICATION. If more than one application is received by the U.S. Government, the applicant will be totally disqualified. However, a married applicant and his/her spouse may submit two separate applications including the spouse and all children on both application forms. This will double chances of each family member to be selected for a permanent residence visa. 6. Can I claim to be native of a country other than my country of birth ? A native is both someone born within one of the qualifying countries and someone entitled to be “charged to” to such country under Section 202(b) of the Immigration and Nationality Act: Thus someone may be (1) charged to the country of birth of his/her spouse; (2) a minor dependent child can be charged to the country of birth of a parent; and (3) an applicant born in a country which neither parent was a native; may be charged to the country of birth of either parent. |
