At least you will know if they received your file, but they're not telling you when they're sending it out, it might take up to a week (that's what they told Greg then). Good luck!!! U're welcome, dear. Yep, he's calling again. Thanks for sharing the knowledge about NVC! I just really need them to tell me when it's mailed out to the embassy. This having no Packet 3 thing requires me to harress the embassy for the interview date. We literally have to call them the moment petition is received to make sure they input it into their system ASAP so I can call the payline to get my interview spot. And then we wait again... Morning, Alex. How are you doing today? Greg received a letter, the day after they sent the file to Brussels, that stated that action. I'm bumming ... I was out on my lunchbreak and it rained like hell ... my phone must have rang but didn't hear it. Unknown number, could be the Embassy returning my questions I mailed. Even better ... they didn't receive anything they say at the Embassy ... unf*ckingbelievable ...	Tarantula	Female	Belgium	2008-10-01 07:11:00

How's everyone? I have a question for those who already filled in their DS-156 form online ... I know I asked this before but now I want to know what you did ... the question 22 When do you intend to arrive in the US? (provide specific date if known). I just checked the form out online and it seems that you're only able to fill in a date and nothing else (like for instance; aprox. or a plusminus 'date'). Some of those fields on that form have limited characters, like my jobname isn't going to fit completely ... not that I think that is a problem, if they don't give me more space then I can't give the whole name ... Suggestions, tips, hints, experiences are welcome ... Have a wonderful day all! Morning Sandra . I just looked through the past online-filled forms I've done for my J1 visas without having exact dates and looks like I managed to put month & year. Since they are asking when you "anticipate", just put "October 2008" or "November 2008" (I would be tempted to write "Yesterday", lol Hello and thanks Ana, I wasn't sure if that would work but October 2008 it will be ...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	Hi Ana and Alex ... nothing good in the mailbox and actually I'm not in a good mood to call the Embassy today. And the rain and cold isn't lifting my mood Talking about food ... Can't wait to have a Robbie T's pizza ... a local Jamesville's pizza place ... killer pizza and wings ... and the calzones aren't bad either ... Have a great day!!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	Good morning all ... this should be the day eh? Thanks for your support Ana, Alex and Jen Alex, I know all about weightloss ... I have to keep an eye on myself these days. I've never had stress biting chunks out of me, but since I know Greg and was/am dying to be with him I'm only half of what I used to be (I had a few too many lots of extras, but they're gone now lol). I really hope you have your interview in 2 weeks, that would make my day! Ana, thanks for the research ... it's just that all cases are so different. With Dutti everything went pretty smooth and fast, Marash didn't plan on getting married till now, and has her visa for quite some time now and I don't remember the name of the other couple, but for them it took long to get their approval, but once it got to the embassy everything went superfast. So I have no idea what's ahead of me ... Hope the NVC sends your file right out, once they received it Jen, I thought bananas grew on a tree But thanks girl and good luck striping off that list of yours!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	Alex, I have no idea how busy they are. But I think it's kind of busy since they aren't returning e-mails ... We'll see. Thanks ... I hope it too And yea I think it's mainly in the what they call ''visa-fraud'' countries that bringing the petitioner to the interview is a step ahead ...

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	Maddy ... I have to wait for the P3 since I have to send back the checklist. In Belgium we need to send back: the checklist (checked off, dated and signed) and DS230 Part I (I believe this one needs to be signed) and at the same time pay for the visa and fill in DS-156 online and print it out. We don't have to send the DS156's, we have to take em to the interview with all the rest of the documents ... DS156's must be unsigned. That's all I know right now ...

Still no P3 ... maybe tomorrow, if not I'm going to be p*ssed off. I bought chocolate and salty crackers to share with my co-workers. A perfect excuse to eat away the frustration Alex ... Gordon is right, you don't have to do the medical before sending in the P3. Doesn't it say 'arrange for a medical"? Jen, that's a whole list to take care of ... good luck with all that! Impetite, welcome! I have no idea on how it works when a kid is involved, maybe someone else can help you. Congrats on the new approval(s) ... Have a great week all.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	I don't think we have something like that. When you leave here, you have to go to the cityhall to give notice you're moving (international), and unsubscribe your social security. Don't think there's a possibility to take any insurance with you for a year after leaving the country. Edited by Tarantula, 24 September 2008 - 11:42 AM.	Tarantula	Female	Belgium	2008-09-24 11:41:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	May filers	Thanks Morre. I got in touch with them too. And it seems like their prices for airfreight are reasonable. I thought to go by oceanfreight (because it's cheaper), but they have minimum volumes, and mine is only 1/2 to 1/3 of that and prices go up to 2000 without insurance, just from a port here to the port in the US. Orbitz? Will check that out Alex, thanks. And sadly no packet yet ... I'll blame it on the strikers ...	Tarantula	Female	Belgium	2008-09-24 08:39:00
