Russia, Ukraine and BelarusAeroflot flight cancel any advises?
the office has a phone number of course, but they never answer their phones. i hold the phone on the line for 57 minutes and it hangs up on me i call again for 57 minutes and hangs up again. nobody wants to ppick up the phone or i have no idea how else to contact them. even if we'll travel 2 hours to get to the nearest office they may tell the same answer as the phone lady. we need to make it clear before we travel so far. we need to take a day off from work and etc to get there.

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusAeroflot flight cancel any advises?
Hi everyone,
I bought two tickets from Aeroflot and due to situation in my country I decided to cancel the flights or change the dates for the end of July. I sent to Aeroflot office a letter with flight numbers in order to cancel the tickets and buy a new one with dates for the end of July. However, they sent me back an e-mail where says it takes 30 days to process my request. I don't have that much money right now to buy a new ticket the only option was to get the money back and buy a new ticket. I tried to call Aeroflot office, but they really seemed to be not that helpful. I decided asking somebody who has experienced the same problem as me. What should I do? Does it really take 30 days to refund my money?
Thanks in advance

ok, maybe that confortable seats and good service come after everything. I mean I am soo disappointed in their ticket service. It is so difficult to purchase a ticket and plus they are somewhat short on answers :( Especially Washington D.C office, New York Office never answered my phone call. Some ladies from LA office are as well. However, Moscow call center is the best. I always call them and there's one lady answers the phone all the time and she is the nicest so far. It is very difficult to contact them. i am already disappointed I hope for better service during the flight.

Russia, Ukraine and BelarusEastern European Cuisine
I love vareniki with cottage cheese or with potatoes. I love them boiled or fried. i put yogurt on them sometimes butter as well. my most favourite meal is so called "kotlety" with mashed potatoes. yummm

How can you not like ??????? It's fantastic. I don't usually eat it for breakfast, but I like it a lot, especially with onions.

Oh, I love grechku. It is very healthy especially for women.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionInterview- Whats the dress code?
QUOTE (krystiandjon @ Dec 24 2008, 05:33 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi all!

It's still months off.....Still waiting on a NOA2!!! But can anyone tell me what the right type of dress code to be wearing to the interview. Is it very formal, say shirt and tie, or could you get away with smart casual. Another thing. i currently am growing my hair out. Now I'm paranoid that being a guy that may be against me in my interview. My fiance really wants me to keep it, and says she thinks it will be fine, and that it would be ridiculous if it was a problem. Well I've read some hairy(heehee!) stories on here about denied visas for all sorts of stupid things. So if someone who did their interview with long hair or knows the rap!

Thanks! Jon.

I think long hair looks sexy though,but for the interview it's good if it looks very neat. and very white shirt or t-shirt on you will be the best. because white color is used to make us to have a positive emotions about that person who wears it. Good Luck!

Hi,

New to this within the last couple minutes..

I'm wondering.. during the medical.. what the blood test is actually testing for?.. I know it is for VD and HIV.. but are there anything else is tests for?

Also.. my daughter (from a previous relationship).. who is now 3, had Herpes Simplex Virus as a baby (affecting her mouth).. would this stop her from passing the medical?

They test for HIV,Syphilis, and chest X-ray for tuberculosis. they can check any disease that can be contagious to other people like some skin diseases. If you have treated herpes and had vaccinated it should be good smile.gif it's important that she doesn't have any now .Good luck smile.gif


Thank you for your information smile.gif
She had Herpes Simplex over 2 years ago and has no had a bout of it since, fingers crossed it's gone completely..
Doctors here were baffled as they had no idea where she got it from

As I was reading an example of the Packet 3/4 email that the Sydney Consulate sends, I noticed it asks for proof of engagement. I am going to guess that most, if not all Consuls ask for this....so, what did you take to show this? Off the top of my head I am going to show my engagement ring and a copy of the receipt for it, pictures from our engagement dinner, and emails in which we discuss our wedding plans and such. That would be sufficient, right? Along with ongoing relationship proof, of course. Keep in mind that my fiance and I aren't going to be seeing each other until I touch down at LAProxy-Connection: keep-alive

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI think I'm in trouble
When I filed for removIng conditions I put the address where we were living. However after we moved out to another place I didn't change the address because my husbands relatives were still living there. So we thought if we got any mail from uscis they will let us know. It's been more than a month know and the place where we moved in doesn't have any mail system set up (we need to pay for it to be setup and we are here for only couple months until we get a house). We've been just picking up our mails from the old place. Is it okay to give uscis our mailing address instead of residential address. Can I put two addresses at the same time? Can I change it now or will it be too late?

If you look at your timeline it says Based on timeline data, your I129f may be adjudicated between March 23, 2009 and April 5, 2009*.

They are halfway through approving September filers so it maybe in the next month or so. You can check the approvals as they come in here http://www.visajourn...l...=2&sortby=2

thank you m but why it takes so lon to get NOA 2?


Because it does. There is no real answer to that but it can be due to a combination of security checks, caseload, government protocols etc etc. I assume you filed at Vermont since that is on your timeline, but they have just started to pick up the pace recently, so you may see approval in the next couple of months.

i hope so smile.gif what means " to be adjudicated " ? in my timeline there's shown that my adjudication dates are approximately between 21 th of March and 3 April.. but i laready miss my honey crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif crying.gif

Hello everybody
My fiance called customer service center and asked for our case status. Lady on the phone said that right now they're still reviewing April filers in 2008. So we need about 6 months to be reviewed and maybe get second notice of action.
Hereby, i'd like to know your opinion about how much does it take to get approved? so 11 months to get NOA 2? but statistics show that average time of getting NOA 2 is 3-5 months. wacko.gif blink.gif innocent.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsVermont processing times..how accurate?

Few more Q's.........

I looking at the processing time for the Vermont office and it states 5 months. Does this include my interview in Vancouver??? Or is that the time to get the NOA 2 letter to my fiancee? Also do some cases go through faster then others?

Also when I have my POE into the US, can I get a EAD, while my AOS goes through?????

Thanks all ;)

Sure you can get your EAD while AOS is in process. I got mine in 2 months. It took 6 months my K-1 application to be approved. NOA 2 is usually takes from 2-3 months, sometimes it can last longer. You can check statistics, and other members timelines to compare.
some cases go faster I think if the immigration center is not busy. Good Luck!

QUOTE (MARM @ Feb 1 2009, 11:36 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
It is totally normal that you are still waiting...
Expect approval at around 5 months.
Lots of pple wait 5 months+ for approval, there is no telling how long it is going to take and you cannot do anything as far as ask why you don't have NOA2 if you are still within your processing time (check USCIS website for current processing times at your center)
If there is something wrong with your evidence or if USCIS requires something more from you, you will get an RFE (Request for Evidence) so don't worry, you are fine.
Just wait star_smile.gif , I know it is easier said than done, but it is all you can do.

Thank you everybody, so if we didn't get RFE yet that means that everything is okay for now?

Need a bit more information - has your friend entered the US yet?

Regardless, they MUST get married within 90 days from his entry into the US (or on day 90). There is no way around that - it is one of the main requirements of the K1 visa. If they marry on day 91 or after and apply for adjustment of status, it will be denied.
