Philippines	Go with her for interview?	QUOTE (Bryan+Nelia 4life @ Nov 18 2009, 01:57 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok guys I believe our interview will be here soon, as the NVC sent our packet out to embassy. Im trying to plan for it now. I really would like to go there to help her with interview, packing, and morale support. The trouble is the money will be substantial (I have around a 40k /year job). I would have to buy 1 ticket in advance from Las Vegas around $1000, then buy 2 round-trip tickets for her and myself to Manilla $300 (we need to return to her home to pack). Then the worst part is buying two tickets to Las Vegas with very little advance notice $2000-3000? Probably another $1000-1500 in miscellanious expences. Thats a range of $4300-5800. I have been saving up and should be very close to 6k by january, but do you guys think it would be better to let her do it on her own and save the surplus money for our new life? I know she is a very smart, capable and strong woman. Are relationship is definetly bonafide so we should have no trouble passing (God willing). I would love to be there with her through this whole process especially the flight over here to a new country where she will be totally lost and scared. But at the same time we will definately need money when she gets here. She says she wants to do it on her own, but I know she would feel better with me there, and maybe it would help us pass all the more? I know this isn't easy to answer but I value your opinions so thanks for helping me descide! Hello guys, I agree with evemonte as long as your case is not complicated and papers are complete.. your fiancee will be ok and nothing to worry about..by that you can save up money. Had my interview last Nov.13 w/o my fiance. Everything went well. I prepared a long sheet of questions (and answers) prior my interview but none of it were asked. Consul and I were just like talking casually. I firmly believe your fiancee can manage (by herself) and can bring home the PINK slip good luck	vanillamocha	Not Telling	Philippines	2009-11-19 07:28:00

Philippines	What delivery service does the US Embassy use?	QUOTE (The_Sage1 @ Nov 25 2009, 10:12 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My fiance lives in Cebu and I'm wondering what mail service they will use to mail out PACKET 3 to her...I know someone mentioned Air 21 but she's never heard of that. I ask because the regular mail she has is horribly unreliable. They don't even deliver it to her door most the time. Hi!! I got my USEM letter stating that I can schedule for my interview (i think that's the packet3) via DHL. Air21 is for the VISA delivery. But you don't have to wait for the packet3 snail mail.. once the NVC forwarded the case to USEM, give them 3 days then you can go ahead and start calling the embassy for interview schedule.	vanillamocha	Not Telling	Philippines	2009-11-26 07:22:00

Lots of photos, chat logs, intent to marry letters from both of you, your affidavit of support (I-134), and your girl needs to have submitted her application (the I-156) at the local BDO bank office.

Canada	Wedding Details	Well lets see my wedding details are pretty well iorned out. It's been giving me something to do while all this process has been going on. I have the church, priest and reception site booked. I have purchased and hanging in my closet is my wedding dress, veil, headpiece, corset bra...tee hee...and my maid of honors dress. I have picked out the invitations (but have not ordered yet because I am waiting on the reception food selection which I am picking out this weekend) I have all the flowers for bridal party and reception picked out. This weekend my fiance and his mother are coming into town (I told him to bring all his visa papers so he doesn't have a problem getting in to the states, I have been the one mostly visiting him cause i am afraid he wont be able to get "in the door") Anyways hopefully since his mother will be with him and what not and she can say she is here to help plan the wedding he will be alright. So this weekends plan is cake tasting at 2 bakeries, food tasting at the reception place, tux fitting and what not, going to pick out the wedding rings and wedding registry. After this all I need to do is set the invitations to order with the correct food on the reception cards. Get the limo and DJ and I am done. I have to say planning this wedding while awaiting for this immigration process has been the best thing LOL.	hapycloud	Female	Canada	2009-05-13 16:22:00

So if we enter 1 for "Persons you are sponsering in this affidavit", then 1 for "yourself", then 1 for "if you are currently married, enter 1 for your spouse" .. That makes 3 in total but we are only 2 .. so how should we go about filing this one ? Thanks very much in advance for your help everyone CONGRATS on the marriage!!!

I moved to the States on August 16th, got married on the 21st( YAY!!) and now getting ready to send the AOS package. Here our situation....my husband was laid off. We tried waiting for him to find another one before filing, but it looks like it's taking a lot longer than we expected. Needless to say, we are very stressed about this. We are afrais that I will not be able to adjust because of it. Not the best way to start a marriage, but we always tell ourselves, if we can go through this rough time, sky will be the limit! Now my questions: 1- We'll need co-sponsor, which will be his mother. Do we fill I-864 or I-864A 2- My hubby's currently receiving unemployment. Can we list it as an income? Thanks for all your answers, and hoping that everything is going smoothly for all of you! Hey girl, sorry to hear about ur husband's job...that's sucky I don't have answers for ya, you may want to post this question under he AOS forum, you may get more resposnes...good luck. Ok, so I got my AP in the mail today... I got two copies...does this mean it is only good for two trips? I'm confused why it's two copies, and how do I activate? Do I see them before I leave across boarder or after? Also, a week ago got an email saying 'EAD card production ordered on Sept 2, give 30 days'...then today I got again 'EAD card production ordered, give 30 days'... What is this? They are the same email? Or does one mean that card was ordered and the other mean it was mailed out? So confused? Also, the DMV took my app a few weeks ago and said they were running a background SAFE check to verify my immigrant status...well they said it would take 7-10 days and it's been way longer. I called DMV main centre...they have nothing....I now have to go wait in line at the DMV AGAIN! With no guarantee for a positive outcome UCK, sorry you had trouble at the DMV, when I took my husband to the DMV in Delaware they started to give him the run around as well...but I knew the rules, asked to see the manager and he got his drivers license that day. (The SAFE check, at least here in Delaware, is an instant access program it does not take a week) I say go to the DMV again if they give you a hard time ask to see a manager (politely ofcourse;) )	hapycloud	Female	Canada	2009-09-10 18:19:00

My case was transferred to csc on July 24th. The last time I got a touch was Aug 3. So now I am waiting, I hope the card is on its way ... Thanks, yeah I was completely confused I assume it meant it was now at CSC but the letter is so darn vague and is longer than what I posted. So thanks for everyone answering, I feel better now QUOTE (poprocks @ Aug 28 2009, 02:00 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just realized that me and my son have been touched a lot and didn't even realize it lol... July 23, my AP July 29, son's AP Aug 24, both of our I-485's and both of our EAD's were touched.... Hoping I see something soon Well you do have your biometrics done now so hopefully this means your AP and EAD will be on the way soon	hapycloud	Female	Canada	2009-08-28 13:14:00
