Gezinha 121 Posted February 9, 2013 Everything that you have is good. Although, some lawyers did recommend not to send anything with a fake ssn. But I am sure people are not getting denied because of that because they are not stupid, they know exactly what we are doing even if we don't show them everything. Don't worry, you are fine.

66354dream 9 Posted February 9, 2013 Is it really important to have a Mexican ID (matricula)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ツ alejandriiukz ㋡ 41 Posted February 9, 2013 It may not be important but I know of a local friend who didn't send any type of ID and he got an rfe asking him to send some sort of id. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gezinha 121 Posted February 9, 2013 I have no idea what that is, unfortunately. I have heard about this Mexican matricula, but I am Brazilian and I don't know what it even looks like. It is like a birth certificate? Sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
66354dream 9 Posted February 9, 2013 It's an ID from the Mexican states but issued by the Mexican council here in the US, if it is nessesary then I'm screwed because in order to get it you need a government issued photo ID, how the hell can I have something issued by the US if I've never been legal here? 1 jd_208 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
66354dream 9 Posted February 9, 2013 I have three of my high school IDs, a Nix check cashing ID it has my picture on it and is issued by them if you don't have a SSN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can get your consular id without another id. I lost mine & i have no other type of id & i let them know that they said it was no problem. I'm sure they could use one of your old school ids.

66354dream 9 Posted February 9, 2013 Really? Wow they seem pretty strict about it but ill give it a shot if I'm asked for it, or do you guys think I should just get it before I send my evidence? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruthie_sue08 31 Posted February 9, 2013 Really? Wow they seem pretty strict about it but ill give it a shot if I'm asked for it, or do you guys think I should just get it before I send my evidence? Either way when you call they give you an appointment so you won't get it right away. But i think it's better to send in all your evidence that way your case doesn't get put on hold because they send you a RFE. 1 Theresa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
66354dream 9 Posted February 11, 2013 Did you have to make an appointment ? From what I understand by visiting the website and calling trying to get info is that for first timers you need an appointment, I called mexitell and they gave me one for march 4th of this year,,,, I don't want to wait that long I wanted it done ASAP.

Rawf 336 Posted February 11, 2013 Unfortunately the instructions does state that you have to send some type of identification, whether is your country identification card, a passport, college or high school ID. Your birth certificate has to be translated to English and certified by a public notary. Also when you go to do your biometrics (fingerprint and photo), you need some form of identification as well. It has to be current and not expired. Everything you mentioned sounds about right, send everything you have from 2007 to 2012 and proof that you were here on June 15th, 2012. Doesn't really have to be the exact date, it can be a day before or after. Personally I didn't send anything related to work because I used to work with a fake ssn, but in the application I did wrote down the fake ssn I was using to work with and I did not have a single issue because of it. Good luck and I would wait for your country identification card and then send everything together. 1 pswa83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes i do for February 25th. & unfortunately it's like Rawf said your gonna need that ID so if you send in your paper work more than likely you will get a RFE & who knows if you'll be able to do your bios! In my opinion just wait till march 4th & have everything ready so as soon as you get it you can send everything off. Good luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Send a copy of your HS ID, doesn't matter if it is expired. For the biometrics thou, not sure if that will work. Still think waiting a few more day to get your country ID is a better option.

Theresa 63 Posted March 3, 2013 Since I was already 30, I had to send more continuous presence evidence ( in chronological order photos on the front, check next, then the completed forms, etc. ). Most of it was school ids and papers, bank statements, immunization cards, doctors papers, rent contracts, 10.

Proof of June 15, 2007 I sent something that showed the closest, (3 days before and a 5 days after) 8. Proof every 3 months from October 2007 to march 2012 7. Proof of June 15, 2012 here I had a bank statement that showed my transactions on that day 6. High school Diploma 5. Birth certificate with notirized translation ( I'll try to post an example of the translation and anyone who is bilingual other than you can translated and notirize it). 4. Passport and other school ID's 3. Forms I-821D, I-765, I-765ws, G-1145 2. Cashiers check of $465 made out to US DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY 1. 2 passport photos Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
