Russia, Ukraine and BelarusSent Original Divorce Records With I-129F
Not sure my advise will help but are you sure UA will require that far back. Did you check with the embassy in UA? I actually skipped the K-1 and found it more interesting to get married in UA so my wife will only need copies. Does you fiancee have residency estabilished in UA she can get a policy report there that should cover the required time and satify the Embassy. i have e mailed them with questions several times and gotten good replys.

So I am curious. NVC finished your case. When did you hear next and how? From the packet 4 that was sent by mail in Ukriane?
Thanks

National Visa Center (Dept of State)How long till receiving NOA2
My wife was approved 2/18 got the NOA 2 in the mail 8 calendar days later. Call to NVC on 3/2 and am told they have it but not entered yet . Wait two to four weeks. Will call each evening when I get home. The only answer I got was they were dumped on. Good luck.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)how long with the nvc?
It seems all you folks are K-1 and pass right through. I seem to be in the same boat as felo391791 I am a CR-1 and my case was approved in California 2/18 logged in on 2/28 but I keep getting the 4 to six week countdown. I tried to strike up a conversation with the operator but they don't seem to have a clue they just look on their screen and have a script that tells them to tell you countdown is four weeks. I guess I will get bold and ask for a supervisor and see if they are any more aware of what is going on. Again seems like K-1 zip thorough but I don't see any conversation where the CR-1 are moving.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Question about calling the NVC about Interview
Thanks I think this answers my question but the only way you find out about interview is to call the NVC right? The information on the state department government web site sort of drops the ball. All they refer to is a letter will go the the waiting spouce. Did I miss something. I think the correct answer is to call call call? (Note:I am a CR1 not K-1)

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionLifting of Conditions/ Biometrics
Spouce had full set of fingerprints performed at embassy. At the point of entry her index finger on both hands was checked. Then she went to a processing room for a few minutes where they took her entry package, had her sign a form and did an hard copy blank ink finger print of index finger on both hands. Does anyone know does this constitue "biometrics" or when the time of "lifting conditions" we will have to still pay for the "biometrics"
Thanks :thumbs:

Sorry eveyone found my answer in one of the other posts as I was digging. Thanks

"Me: You will be mailed a letter receipt for your I-751 stating the above. Carry it and your expired Green Card as proof of your continued status as a PR. ie: Nothing Changes."

Removing Conditions on Residency General Discussion1-751 Travel while waitng for new card
My wife and I will be filing 89 days prior to expiration of her Conditional green card. From the timelines here it appears that the initial process (review and biometrics) happen pretty quickly but the Cal Service Center does not approve for up to six months or more. My wife's mother is touch and go with illness in Ukraine. I am wondering what we need to file if the permanent green card is not sent to us by its current expiration. She may need to tavel at the drop of the hat. Anyone have any experience or thoughts on this?
Thanks

I do also encourage all of you to enter your data in your timeline if you have one and create one if you do not. It will be helpful to those before us (prior months) and after us(future months) in finding trends as to what they might expect following the process.   Good luck to all.

Best of luck it is a feeling that is impossible to shake. In our interview both my wife and I could not remember my previous spouce birthday and we were givein an RFI.  After researching court documents supplied quickly but to this day feel dumb and I was born into this language.

Don't loose faith you will make it.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedures2010 TAX ? whats the best way ? Extend or Single or Married
I think there is good "guidance" here but I always go to the source. In my case I went and filed my tax return with request for ITID and got the typical letter of rejection and asking for more info. I did call the customer service made sure I got the name and badge number. Got some good advise on how to do it and put a cover letter with the name and badge number of who I talked to at IRS. I am hoping for a positive response and will post later. Good luck but I would suggest if you are married file as married or married filing separate and possible amend you return. READ THE TAX BOOKLETS AND CALL: THE IRS HOT LINE PRIOR TO SENDING.

If I might suggest follow what Gary and Val have posted. There is NO easy way. I went through this last year and received the maximum refund. I will tell you it is manual and you have to follow the instructions explicidly. Yes it takes time. I love the russian translation of the quote "They say time is the fire in which we burn." Follow the insturctions. It will save you time in the end. Also you will get the maximum refund.

Should have wwaited a day. In my mail was a letter did not have enough proof. I called the number given and talked with a Ms. Jackson (very interesting conversation) I did send a copy of my whole NVC package. She indicated it might just depend on who got the file to handle. (brutally honest). So I sent it off today and see what happens.

I don't know if a new thread would be better but you folks with tax problems seem to be here so I will ask. I send all by stuff in to Austin (followed all the advise here and on the IRS insturctions) I ask my wife to apostile her pass port and the federal government in Kiev. (Laughed) So I sent the stuff in and I know it was delivered. I have not gotten a request, rejection or anything. Those members who got a request for information can you give me an idea how long it took? Should I assume they are processing and it will take four weeks to get the ID and they when did you know your taxes were actually filed? Sorry if I missed the answers in this thread.

Sorry good information but a little confused on package IV. What is the VFS office? The way I read the NCS procedures you get you Case number and payment number. Second you pay. Third you get the Application and the package 4. The beneficiary has to have all the stuff listed and send to the NCS right? Then your wife also needs a complete copy for interview plus medical, plus a fresh police report. (Ukraine) Am I understanding all correctly? Thanks

Great informtion because we all have the same question. I am not sure if there is a lack of consistency depending on the Consulate so I am playing safe with a few extra originals. There is so much time involved I will pay a few dollars for the extras. I have found it useful to get practical application here but also I am running a parallel checklist from the Department of state site and the local web site of the Embasey in Ukraine (for my wife).
