USCIS Service Centers	TSC & Waiting time NOA2?!	Check out below for my timeline: only 64 days for us. Now waiting to get sent to NVC. ...Shouldn't be long for you. My approval was 5 days earlier than yours, and received a message that they forwarded the package to NVC today.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-10-25 21:24:00
USCIS Service Centers	WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH TSC?????	your approval will come soon enough! Maybe, to keep yourself occupied, research the next step after approval?	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-11-20 16:39:00
USCIS Service Centers	Processing Times	The best thing you can do is ensure that your petition is accurate, and loaded with all the necessary evidence. Worst case scenario is a 5 month wait time turning into 7 months because you forgot to include something! Read as much as you can about the process prior to filing! I can't tell you how many posts I've read about RFE's, denials, and year long bans to the US, all due to lack of preparedness!	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-12-06 04:58:00
USCIS Service Centers	How to find out in which center my K1 been processed?	Texas Service Center. How is this service center compared to the others? Faster, slower?	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-08-28 09:18:00

Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	My sweetheart is finally in the US	Did you tell the person, who directed you, that you were there with a K-1 visa? or,simply,  just asked which line was appropriate?	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-10-21 14:08:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	How are Ladies from Kazakstan compared to Ukraine Ladies	It would take forever to get in/out of the subway if they weren't that fast! At least in Kiev, it's extremely deep, it takes like 3 minutes on the fast escalator as it is, you would need a book if the escalator were slower. I can't imagine using the slowpoke American escalators with such depth. I, especially, love the angled platform that's used for deceleration when you disembark at that high rate of speed!) I never new escalators were capable of "ludicrous speed" until I went to kiev!))	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-11-12 10:21:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	Visa approved in Kiev, how long does it take to receive passport at TNT location after approval	Depends on your TNT location. Ours was in kiev, and took 3 days to receive it.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-12-06 14:12:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	DS-160	Hin-d, I'm curious.   I'm filling out the DS 160 and I can not make it past the street address home address line.   I try to save and it kicks me back to fix the error.   I even put in my own address and it would save.   Is there a trick you know to get through this since you have completed it?   thanks.   Actually, I didn't complete the application. Tanya completed this on her own. I'm sorry that I can't help. I spoke with Tanya, and she said that she didn't have a problem.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-11-10 15:36:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	DS-160	Anyone know if it is possible for the petitioner to complete the form? Is it possible for the beneficiary to be able to access the form afterwards to print the barcode info page?	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-10-28 10:33:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	how have your RUB wifes changed if any since coming here	yes. sounds like Ukraine's pres is a pawn rootin for putin. In truth, I think Yanukovych's change of heart was probably more for personal reasons. Integration into the EU would likely prompt an investigation into his abuse of power! His son is one of the 100 richest men in Ukraine....who knew that a University trained dentist could acheive such a feat! There are many more examples of his political corruption; too numerous to mention!	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-12-07 06:34:00

Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	Difficulty getting police certificate from Russia	depending on the region she lives, particularly the east, police services are almost non existent!	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2014-06-13 08:25:00
Russia, Ukraine and Belarus	Best way to ship 15 KG of winter clothes from Ukraine to USA?	We used Ukraine's regular mail service for about 12 boxes of clothes. All received without a problem, and much cheaper that the alternatives. Believe me, nothing in those boxes was cheap, either! Kind of a risk, but everything worked out fine!   Good Luck	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2014-10-06 15:09:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	Shipped to NVC	Took us a month waiting for a case number. Standard reply is 8weeks. good luck! ugh...I hope not. 8 weeks is a long time! Edited by Hin-d, 25 October 2013 - 08:09 PM.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-10-25 20:07:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	Shipped to NVC	Quick question: anyone know the approximate timeline of when NVC receives the package to when a case number will be issued? Mine was shipped today!	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-10-25 19:32:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	Need some affirmation about the next step	Is anyone familiar with which steps can be taken for the Kiev consulate, at this point? I received a case number, and the status says: "at NVC". Besides, waiting, is there anything that can be accomplished now? I've already sent all the documents that Tanya will need for the interview last week. Thanks for your replies!	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-11-02 06:41:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	Interview docs	Any suggestions for people who filed taxes online for the last few years? Obviously paperwork is easy to get, but how can I get previous W-2's?	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-08-24 08:55:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	red flags	Not sure that this would be a red flag. Application states that you must be free to marry. Some states have a "grace period" that must be met prior to being allowed to remarry. Some states require many months to elapse; some allow those to remarry almost immediately.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-08-27 09:21:00
US Embassy and Consulate Discussion	I-129f approved :) happy but what's the next steps?	Yes, TSC will send you a txt and email, if you signed up for E-notification, that they forwarded the petition. It took them two weeks to send it from my NOA 2 date. One week after they sent to NVC, I received my case number. Congrats on the approval! I know you've been waiting awhile!

US Citizenship General Discussion	Deported for an Agravated felony but we think he is a US Citizen? What to do next?	I did a little digging. The N-600 is the way to go. The "CRBA" is generally only until 18 years of age.    Interestingly enough the n-600 instructions and the DOS website (   The N-600 looks like the way to go. Someone mentioned this back in one of the first pages. Someone else mentioned that it would be difficult to do because they may require you to attend an interview in the US, thus, creating a catch 22 situation. The N-600 instructions nor google indicate anything about moral character. Nor would it make sense since you are not gaining citizenship, but rather documenting the citizenship you acquired at birth.    They must have removed the criminal background section because I'm relatively sure that this was included in my application, at the time of submission. I claimed citizenship through my mother's naturalization about 9 years ago. Interview attendance may prove to be a logistical hurdle in this situation.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2014-03-05 09:23:00
US Citizenship General Discussion	Deported for an Agravated felony but we think he is a US Citizen? What to do next?	You don't need to claim your citizenship before turning 18, typically. In this case, he could be a US citizen by birth or by virtue of his mother naturalizing before he turned 18. Either way it's automatic and you don't need to claim it. Generally speaking, babies born abroad to US citizens don't need to claim anything. They are US citizens, period, whether they know it or not Pretty sure that there is a deadline to claim citizenship from a naturalized parent. Another requirement is to have good morals!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	COSPONSOR	I THINK SO...AGREE... Of course, if ukraine goes with the European Union, then his salary will not amount to much.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-12-04 20:48:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	COSPONSOR	If you have no JS, then perhaps he can move to your country?     Agreed! He could capitalize on the currency exchange over there!  if his yearly income is 20,000 dollars, it would amount to about 160,000 hrv per year...very possible to live on that depending on where you choose to live.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	NOA1 not been sent yet	Hello, we did not receive any e-mail confirmation yet. we used the lawyers for our K1 packet, maybe our lawyer received it i have to check it out. as for the G1145 form, what is that?     It's a form that allows the petitioner to be notified, electronically, of the status of the petition. You had the option to include this in your I-129f package before you made your submission.   Edited by Hin-d, 27 August 2013 - 09:16 AM.	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-08-27 09:13:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress Reports	I 129f approved in 33 Days, common??	I sent in my application for my fiance on July 17, 2013.  I received my NOA1 on July 25, 2013.  I was ready to wait for 5 months, like the wait time says for the California Service Center.  I just got the NOA2 in the mail the other day (August 27, 2013), saying it was approved and was being sent to the consulate in Tegucigalpa.  I am thrilled that it was so fast!! I am wondering if anyone has any insight into why it was so fast?   -Suzanne I hate you!) congrats!,	Hin-d	Male	Ukraine	2013-09-01 23:13:00
