IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	yes, im just waiting for that day to come.     yes, i think it depends on the embassy for each country.   once my case get completed at NVC,i will look into medical,since my brain doesn't work	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-10 03:12:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	I called the medical office and asked "How far in advance I can take the medical before interview" For Germany they said close to one year in advance, maybe it was 6 month. (I can't remember) After I was done they send the medical to the embassy, and this is where it will be pulled when my interview day is.   so its advice-able to do medical exam before case get completed in NVC? or its differ from each country?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-10 00:44:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	After they see what is missed, you still can have it done with the regular doctor. Get it done before visa medical. It only delays your interview if you don't pass the medical.   As I recall. Usually all vaccinations are done by the time we're 14 years. This is how I remember with my children. Teenage girls have the HPV shoots done....Well...this of course didn't apply to me anymore.   How did you do the medical before you get interview date?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-09 08:48:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	I lost my papers ones in the states. What I did to proof I was vaccinated against... I went to see the doctor and had my blood drawn...he simply checked through blood testing what I was vaccinated against. (this test shows everything you ever been vaccinated against since childhood) He then given me a new record on my vaccination. The only thing I up-date is my tetanus shoot every ten years. I hope this helps.       I have missed few vaccination when i was teenage , will they advice me to have those missed vaccination before i go for interview or it will delay my visa?     Edited by neto123, 09 June 2013 - 08:24 AM.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-09 08:24:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	The medical isn't a big deal. When I did mine... I peed in a cup (guess drug testing) Blood pressure (don't drink to much coffee before) hahah.. They took some blood (checked for sexual diseases) So I was told. Bring your vaccination records (show your up- to date with all) X-ray of the lung Than a doctor checked my eye sight and overall health. 1 picture I was done within one hour. Check with your embassy how far in advance you can take it and call the medical office with the same question (just for good measure) Mine is good for one year, and my medical records are now with the embassy until my interview.   Forgot: I filled out regular questionairy. Health history.   OMG i dnt have any vacination record so far what am i going to do?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-09 08:04:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	yes, that's what i said... in my case, 7 days before the interview... actually at least... some would even have their medical exam even if their case hasnt been closed yet in NVC.. coz they worry much about that x-ray test... and i am worried too.. coz if i wont pass, another 2 months delay... or maybe more.. :'(. but i know i will... (thinking positive)   why your worried so much about x-ray test?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-09 00:37:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	here in Phil, the applicants can decide when to do the medical exam as long as it should be 7 days before the interview. NVC was the one who set our interview appointment.   But NVC official site says we have to do the medical exam before their scheduled interview dates, check the link below     http://travel.state..../info_3739.html	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-09 00:29:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	Your AOS is all set from what I understand and now only waiting on DS230, plus they received on the 5th. I don't see why your case shouldn't be closed before the end of this month, that if everything goes smooth of course.  For interview schedule, you need to check with the local US Embassy, while you are waiting for case complete, write an email to local US Embassy ask them about time frame for immigration interview and see what they tell you. This will give you a head up on how long you need to wait after CC at NVC.   Have you try to contact US Embassy at Frankfurt for non-immigration interview window?.   I know a person who is working local embassy, i thought to contact him once the case got completed at NVC.By the way what does CC means. What they will check in medical exam?What i have to pass in medical exam?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-08 23:56:00

Well may be when I was younger when   is all it matter yes.....I would call embassy every other hours .   Now a day that I already passed that stage of .......nah......she can wait.   No my MIL haven't got schedule for an interview yet......but she can wait too.    Even you pass your younger age,the love still there and it has been stronger, any way your mother-in-law got interview date	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-07 23:05:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	You can call for your 864 anytime and ask if there is an RFE. Your 230 you at least give them 10 working days.   I dare to say:....hahaha... Readerchoice mother in-law is waiting for interview date.                                         Readerchoice himself isn't waiting.....   If readerchoice wife wait for interview, he would have call several times embassy for interview	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-06 09:33:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	I use chocolate as a speech. When I say I need to eat chocolate...people know I feel stressed.   Its my opinion your 864 is done. You can always call and ask operator if they have RFE in computer. (I did)   You just wait for 230....yeahhhhhh   Lets see next week possible to call.     I use chocolate as a speech. When I say I need to eat chocolate...people know I feel stressed.   Its my opinion your 864 is done. You can always call and ask operator if they have RFE in computer. (I did)   You just wait for 230....yeahhhhhh   what happen to readerchoice did he got interview date?	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-06 09:03:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	This is so funny. I sure talk about real chocolate. haha...Every time I lost patience or felt stressed from waiting...I ate chocolate. This meant I needed to exercise more.   My local embassy has 10 days to 1 month time after NVC to give me interview date. (But this is silly writing) Doesn't say if they have this time frame to set date for after. Or time frame to set date within this time. It doesn't seem busy according to the doctor at the medical office.   864 and 230 are two different departments. You are done with your 864. They operator only tells you what the see in their computer. And when your 864 is in the computer this means you are done with it. My opinion. Your 230 might be done in 10 working days from the date they received it.   Ho real chocolate.   So your opinion says there is no REF for 864??? once they enter to the system???	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-06 04:33:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	Thank you. Very soon its your turn. But your know I'm a "CRAB" I worry until I truly have my passport with stamp in my hand. Only than I believe it. Reading from ZAMAR on here spookes me how things still can change. But I'm sure to hear something next week. Date and time means the end is here.     Better you can get information about local embassy how busy they are at the moment,so if they are not that busy u can expect interview date soon.Am i correct?   My turn hope i have to wait sometime.exactly how long your gap between i-864 (not exact form ) and DS230 from the case closed days? Yeah Readerchoice...The officer will ask...how much chocolate did you eat?? Sonja can say..."I given it up" ...I'm broke now and can't afford it. I used the time wisely, I let go of my children hahaha...I did got great exercise out of my wait. I'm jogging close to every night since January 1st.   I need assurance...The officer isn't going to deny me in the final interview?? This spooks me now. My fathers one year death anniversary is next week. This spooks me too.     guys ru talking about real chocolate???	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-06 04:01:00

YES its in their system.  Now breath.   They can only say "received" when its in their computer and they see it Its done.     Lets see,i just want to switch off my mind for few weeks.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-05 10:41:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	Don't lose it. Now you know they got 864 and 230 in their house....This is good news. Give the 230 10 working days before calling. Are you saying that you expressed mailed your 864 on May 16th??? This means they got it around the the 20th. Did you ask if its in the computer. I assume it is...otherwise they couldn't have told you. This means 864 is done...just my opinion.   864 express mail 16th may from NY,so it just a day to reach NVC,but they have said 28th we received.I dnt no weather its in the system.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-05 00:43:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	If your doing consulate filing...You do Form  I-130 first with supporting documents. After I-130 approval the  I-864 the financial part, plus DS-230.   Called NVC they said we received your i-864 on 28th May,but we express mail it on 16th may.I dnt no what's the hell is this?I got notification from aramex express they delivered DS 230 on 5th June,it was today.I am fedup b this process.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-04 20:51:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	This is nifty.   I call NVC on Wednesday again. This week brings conclusion.   I got told they have to set interview date within a 4 week range for Germany. But I don't hold my breath.   I told NVC that once they computerize the last document, I am interview ready. (Got us laughing)         If your case got closed at NVC this week and if your interview date is within 4 weeks you can stay probably    Edited by neto123, 03 June 2013 - 10:45 PM.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-06-03 22:44:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	At least they work on it. Call again in 2 days or so. When they tell you its done, make sure to ask if their is an RFE attached to it. Just saying. Their computer can tell you in advance, and you don't have to wait for their writing. But you are not going to have an RFE.   My 864w was quick. I assume because it only entailed one paper for me to sign.     hoping to call coming tuesday,its weekend now so they may be in holiday.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-05-31 05:36:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	June 2012 I-130 Filers?	This 20 days is just their standard response to keep me from calling.   Pretty much ten days (2 weeks) or less. With an RFE they don't go through all the papers anymore.   Meaning. My case is complete inside their computer, they just want to add my correct divorce papers with seal to transfer everything to my consulate.   So I hope someone will be quick to enter the 'last' in their computer.   hopefully everything will be comple soon for you, my hubby has call NVC to know about i-864 process,they have replied still in process call us next week,according to my calculation 11 working days over.	neto123	Not Telling	Sri Lanka	2013-05-31 05:14:00
