  1. Is your Mom a green card holder in the U.S.?  If she is, she needs to carry her green card when she travels.  Now, did she come to the U.S. with a passport from her home country?  Or , did she come to the U.S as  refugee...so she does not have a passport?  If she came as a refugee...she must have what is called a "travel document" to travel internationally.  It is usually a little booklet and looks a lot like a passport.  You need to see the 1st site below to download the instructions and the form to fill out.  This is sort of complicated, so they give you a customer service number to call for help.  1-800-375-5283

    This is the number to call for help in filling out the application for a travel document for a person who came to the U.S. as a refugee.  The "Travel document" application is expensive...$305 USD.   If your mother came here from Germany, then , she did NOT come as a refugee...and she should use her German Passport to travel with.  If she no longer has a German passport, she can apply for one at the nearest German consulate.  See the last website.


  2. You are US citizen ? Then the travel document is the passport.

    Greetings from Hamburg, Germany

    ps: If your mom is an immigrant to the US and not an US citizen she has to go to her native embassy or consulate and get a new passport. Ask there howto get. Germany for excample charges a document, that your mom is not US citizen. If she has an EU passport that was it. (And Norway). If her native country is not EU, she possibly needs a visum. Ask German embassy.

  3. you mean an application for a visa??? look at the german embessy webside.

  4. Papers please...........

  5. There's two possibilities:

    You both get a valid US passport, then you'll be granted immigration on a tourist basis.

    Or you or one of you is from another country, then turn to the German embassy there or in NYC to get a visa and passport issued.

    Without that proof of identity, you won't be allowed to come here and must be prepared for a very unpleasant night at immigrations.

    And now don't tell me you can't find out where the German embassy in NYC is, and which phone number there to call? You have the internet at your hands. It took me 1/20 of a second.
