Congrats on the interview date Bob! At least you have a date and know where it ends. I wonder why it's taking so long for the interviews? By normal timelines from the past I was expecting our interview to be this month. Looks now like it'll be mid to end of May. We sent our 129 in 9 days before you did and now we're about a month behind you. The difference between VSC and CSC . There are Sept. filers that still haven't seen their NOA2 yet! When my honey gets frustrated I try to point out that some folks aren't doing as well as we are and that our luck isn't all bad.
Chok dii!

Wilaiwan says that she didn't get any instructions pertaining to her medical with the packet three she received. The old checklist that I downloaded referred to following the included documents to obtain your medical exam. Is there something missing that we need, or can she just make an appt. at Bumrungrat and proceed?
She sent it in yesterday so we've joined the que!



Have her just schedule the appt, my fiancee is going to her medical on 3/13 Bumdundgrad (sp?)



Thanks all. So the hospital will have the necessary forms???
She's working in Nakhon sri Thanmmarat till the end of the month so she won't be going till then. Otherwise they could all have a party!
Is anyone going over for the interview? I was there in Oct. and since I'm out of work I probably won't make it. Hopefully she can get through it on her own.

They spell it Bumrungrand, but as usual pronounce it differently, Bum roong rot

Chok dii!!

hey guys quick question does anybody know when the embassy website updates the interview dates page the last time was feb 18 and I am desperately waiting for an update cause my girls interview should be on there. Thanks. Soooooooo close now I can taste her....ummm I mean it:)



I was just thinking the same thing about 30 minutes ago........



I think we're all wondering what's going on? The only recent reference is back on pg.161, epoulsens' packet 3 was received on 2/14 and their appointment is May 8. Seems like an unusually long wait! Anyone have any more info??

Hey I just went to the embassy website after I posted this and it's been updated to March 6! Lots of April dates. Good luck all, hope you're on there!!

Thanks for the good wishes!! My problem is dealing with the I-134. I need to find a job before the interview. I can't believe I'm saying this but I hope it's not too soon.

By the way she told me that the packet that she got from the embassy is different than the one that I downloaded and sent to her. Not sure what's different yet. She's going to try to scan and send it to me. If i see any important differences I'll make them known.

Wilaiwan received her packet 3 yesterday when she got home from work. Of course she had to call and wake me up to tell me! I'm still unemployed but I want her to send it back ASAP anyway. I'm thinking that we will have at least a month, likely two before she has her interview. I should have it worked out by then. What do you all think ?? Am I figuring correctly for our timeline and interview?

Thanks for the good wishes all! I'm trying to stay positive and believe that it will work out. I actually did get a letter from my ex-employer the week before, but by the time I get to use it, a month or so down the road, it will be invalid.

I finally got through after calling all day and our case was sent to BKK yesterday, so things are moving along! Bad news is I was unexpectedly laid off this week, very bad timing! So I'm in the hunt for a new job and a co-sponsor. Life is full of surprises!!

That's great SqdnGuns! You seem to be on a fast track. Congrats!! We're only a week behind you with the NOA2 so we have our fingers crossed.

PM= private message
Just click on"bigsky" in my window and you will see send message, you can just ask your questions here too. Probably better as there are far more experienced folks than me to help you along.

I don't remember exactly how I did everything. I filled out the forms on the computer and then printed. Anywhere that there wasn't enough room, and the little + appeared, I added an extra sheet with the heading, extra information for I-129F(for example), line(whatever #). I'd do the same for the 325 if necessary. Chok dii!

Hi George, sorry I haven't replied to your Qs. I don't think I needed an extra sheet for the 325, but for the 129. I would probably attach an extra sheet for each copy as I believe they go to different places in the end.
Just write her address as you would put it on an envelope to mail it. Have you looked in the guides section of this forum? There is lots of info and samples. Good luck and feel free to PM if you need more help.

She can download the 325 herself and fill it out, then send it to you. That will save you time and postage one way. I used my fiances' full address, and yes they can be long. I added an extra sheet as per the directions for anything that won't fit. They're going to need her full address to mail her the packet 3 when you get to that. Chok dii!

I just now, at 7:45 Pac. time, received email of our 129 approval. They must be working overtime!! I called my sweetie and she's beside herself with joy. Dii jai Mak Mak!!! I don't think she really thought it would happen. It only now seems like a reality.

I'm only an occasional visitor here but have received some great advice and inspiration, thanks all for that!!

Best of luck to all and congrats T.F.!! With a little luck in a couple of months I'll be singing the same tune!

Chok Dii Khop!

Hi folks,
We should be getting close and I'm trying to get a jump on the Packet 3. I've found the forms needed thanks to some help from the forum but I find the instructions confusing. Don't want to mess it up now after all this wait so would appreciate some help.

1.It says to immediately send in the D-230 Part1 to the BKK Embassy. Is that all that is initially sent? I assume that I can send this as soon as we receive our NOA2?

2.Next to be sent would be the checklist when all requirements have been met. Should we wait until we have the police certificate in hand and the medical exam completed to send in the checklist, or can we return it while those are in process? I'm guessing that it's just timing and as long as you have them by the interview you're OK.

3.Verification of unmarried status: is this required of everyone? Neither of us has been previously married.

Thanks in advance for your help and best wishes and patience to all. Chok dii!!

You may see this also in the general forum, I clicked new topic instead of reply and can't figure out how to edit?? I'm not very good with this stuff!
