My joint sponsor doesn't have her birth certificate,back in 1925. She asked for the record at the county but they cannot find it.Any documentatons that she can use to show that she is USC? She doesn't have passport,by the way. Every idea is welcomed. Thank you.

What about a baptismal record?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresEmails for Evidence,
QUOTE (crazysamurai @ Oct 26 2008, 08:12 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Take as much evidence as possible. It's not a problem if you guys don't have emails since you are planning to show call logs and other pictures of you together. Also, not everyone in India has internet access nor everyone lives in metro area, so I wouldn't worry about emails too much. I also have very few emails (about 10-12, since we write to each other once a month). But I have call logs for each month. We don't chat because at my work all chat programs and personal emails are blocked. So we have only call logs and some pictures. Nothing else. Hope it's enough smile.gif

CS


Well, take other proof as many as you have, if you dont have communication with email or chat then you can explain hoenstly.
All depends on the consular , just be prepared than delayed.
My consular didnt ask any proof relationship not even pictures.

So Good Luck.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresInterview experiances on OCT 21th 2008
Dear All,


First of all , thanks guys for everything that you have posted in this Forum, it helped me so much .

and I am glad to say that we got visa of IR -1 for me and IR-2 for my 6 years old daughter after 2.5 years waiting.

Here is the detail interview experiences at Us Embassy in Budapest .

Original intreview date was Oct 29th but as confirmed by Immigrant officer my New interview date is Oct 21st at 13.00 pm.

13.00 , The security guards let us in.
13.30, called at window 6, the lady asked medical report and passport , and asked if my husband used visit us, I said yes.
14.00, Finger print, the CO let my daughter to try to do same as me, but of course he didnt put on the record. He said wait til my number will be called again

15.00 was the interview , the american lady was the interviewer.

The question were :

do you only one kid?
How did you meet your husband?
What will you do for the future in USA?
why are you in Hungary?

she said your Visa approved and please wait 15 min to print out the Visa.

She didnt ask any proof of relationship , NOT EVEN PICTURES.

and the first lady called my number and she gave us our passport with the visa on it and she asked to check and said sorry wait for long.
everything was ok, and she gave me 2 sealed envelopes , for me and my daughter to give to officer at POE in the US.
she gave me brochure , I didnt even check what brochure is that .


Good Luck for the others who is waiting for interview.

What kind of documents which you already sent ? is it the same paper they request?
There are many possibilitties why the docs is lost, you can speak and check with supervisor .
or you should write official complain regarding lossing documents.

even though I don't know what visa you are trying to get--they asked for a CV?! Is this typical? Having read lots of threads here on VJ, I've never heard of that before.

Sorry I'm no help here but I did want to say CONGRATULATIONS on finishing the PhD. That's fantastic!


Hi Flower cat,

what kind of visa did you apply?

in this forum we are discussing CR/IR Visa or may be some K Visa.

based on the experinace from VJ memeber I have read after intervies they got slip ( there are white, blue and Pink) .

however, you should call again embassy and clarify your interview status and ask when the visa issued.

CV here mean Curriculum Vitae? or what ??

why they need that? if your visa is related with family re-union , I think no need CV.
But it can be, everything depends on local embassy .
if so then it will be the first story I read.



I apply for IR1. They didn't give me any slip and I didn't see any others hold any slip when left the window.

Maybe just because I am a biologist, and I am PhD. Highly educated person in sensitive scientific field blink.gif

But it seems the interviewer was quite confident, and he even apologized for the delay.


Ok, then dont worry, may be they need to check more detail about Job and your experiances since you are scientic of biology.


If embassy need 1 month to clarify then wait...relax but I cant stop you to stay worry.
May be the slip will you get after they clarify your CV.

Thanks to share with us.

wish you all the best then you can visit your husband ASAP.

QUOTE (flowercat.mimi @ Sep 15 2008, 05:01 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Maybe some of you still remember my story. I was scheduled by NVC an interview in Stockholm, but the embassy in Stockholm didn't want to interview me because I am not citizen of Sweden. After 3 weeks of struggle, finally they accepted me and scheduled me another interview on last Thursday, the day before my PhD defense. Anyway, I know it's crazy but I don't want to bother them anymore, since they are already doing me a big favor. blink.gif

So I flew to Stockholm one day earlier, slept one night in Stockholm, and reached the embassy on time. At the gate, I only saw one line for non-immigration visa. I asked around, but nobody knew where the line for immigration visa is. Finally I realized I was the only one for immigration visa, that's why there was no line......

I entered the embassy, gave my passport to the window, waited for about 40 min, then my name was called. The consul is a very nice looking guy. I said "good morning" but he said "nihao", which is my language, Chinese. I was surprised. whistling.gif The interview was happy, he didn't ask for any photo or telephone record. I was quite relaxed actually. Finally he told me the documents and the interview were OK. But he wanted me to send the electronic version of my CV to them, so they will send it to Washington. In about 30 days, Washington will approve it, and then they will issue me a visa. He wanted to keep my passport, but later he decided to return it to me, in case I would need to travel during the 30 days. But when the CV has been approved, they will inform me to send the passport to them again. He said he's quite confident I should be able to leave for US in Oct.

It took me about 20 min. After I left the window, I saw two other Chinese waiting for interview. Talked with them for half minute and told them about my story. I don't know if all the Chinese will have the same problem as I had, or it's only for long-term visa application. I just asked them to be prepared......Anyway, they looked kind of nervous and unhappy also......

Then I flew back to my town, where my supervisor was waiting for me, almost had heart attack. blink.gif I finished the PhD defense on Friday. I sent my CV to them on Sunday. I will call to make sure they got it. I am a PhD of biology. I tried to remove all the words related to bacteria or virus from my CV......I don't want to scare anybody......

Will everything be fine? Will I be able to see my husband in Oct? Maybe I worry too much, but since the PhD defense has been done, I have nothing else to worry...... wacko.gif


Hi Flower Cat,

I remember your story , good thing that you can had interview at Us embassy in Stockholm.

and just wait and pray for the visa, dont worry to much.

Call USCIS , it should be the same time.


my husband filed me march 2006 and he was a lawful permanent resident that time.but when my husband become a US citizen, he filed the petition of my son and at the same time he upgrated my petition.is it advisable to call USCIS?


i have the same case with divi. my husband applied for me and my daughter's petition at the same time. with that i was considered the principal applicant. so when did your husband apply for your child's petition?



I suggest you to call them. or id it doesnt work then write to congressman to get expedite of your son's petition.
You cant go without your son! , it will be complicated and too much work on separetly papers.

Mine was easier because we got same approval.

I applied for a tourist visa when my I-130 was pending. I got approved right away. As long as you can convince them that you're not gonna overstay your visit. I had an employment letter with me, saying that I was going to be on leave for a specific date to visit the US. I showed my pay slip and then I was done.

As long as she can prove her ties back to her home country then she should have no problem.

ok cool so i got the list and basic from what i understand is i would need, her org. copy of the birth cert, marriage cert and passport copies and pcc right? now does she get te birth cert and marriage cert back at the time of interview as they are the original we will be sending in.? also someone has told me i would need her parents birth certs as well, is that true? do i need anything from her family side?


Hi,

I am also confusing about this original's documents, if we give To NVC the original documents ( marriage cert, birth certf, police certificate) , will we get all original docs when interview with consular?


I am wondering about this too. So,I am going to send the certified copies of original documents instead.



My original country is Indonesia, I am living in Hungary , it is difficult for me to get certified copy from the office which issued the papers.

do you know if notarized documents is acceptable?
