IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAm I Going Crazy?

Speaking of proving communications on Viber - google how to make screenshots. I'm on Whatsapp with my husband and i've learned to make screenshots with my phone so i just put them into a word document (selection showing date stamps and some innocent chit chat) which i will print for the interview.

You can send your chat from whats app to email and print it it gives dates and time of day,etc.

My name is on the top of each page. Is it best to highlight the ones for my husband?

I have a question.  When submitting phone logs, is it possible to print just the page that has my husbands phone number on it.  Or do I have to submit the entire bill.  rose.gif I have sprint and each bill is between 13 and 19 pages.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresI130 vs I129
I have noticed that some people who file i130 also file i129. How can that be done if your already married? Are there any benefits to that? It appears that I129 seems to get processed much quicker. How much does it cost to file I129? Just wanting information... Thanks in advance everyone.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAdditional documentation
I was not asked for additional documentation during USCIS phase of the I-130. I want to send in boarding passes with passport stamp and photos of each time I went to see my husband. What's app chats, cell bills. I want my file to tell a story by the time our file gets to the consulate. My question is, when is the best time to submit this during the NVC phase?

Thank you

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureswaiting time for visa in hand (Dominican Republic) [edited title]

Thanks everyone for the nice words and the conqrats. I know we just got done our interview. But can anyone help me on how long do they take to deliver the passport in the Dominican republic. I just asking because I will still be here until the 4th of October. I would llike to start planning my wife travel to the USA.


Our interview was sept 4 and visa was delivered sept13. Cities that don't have a do ex location they wait until they have a few then they deliver them. It's quickest to pick the visa up ??

CaribbeanDominican Republic Getting Married and how to change her name
Just an FYI. After you get married and your certificate of marriage is ready you have to go to santo Domingo and get it legalized and appostilled there as well. It took us a couple of extra days to do that. But I am the American and I changed my name to my husbands last name. I was confused about the two last names...

CaribbeanDominican Republic Getting Married and how to change her name

Hi Everyone - so I got this question my GF and I are talking about getting married in March during my next trip.
So I / we want her last name to change to mine (just like in the USA, I, male, am the US citizen and she, female, is Dominican)
 
But does not seem customary for that to happen there in the DR.
So that leads to several questions,
1) She has 2 last names and mine would be added as de Xxxxxxx
2) how hard is it to change her name so that it is more like mine First Middle Xxxxxx as the last name, and with her middle name coming from one of her last names?
3) or is it better to leave well enough alone for the CR1 visa we will file later?
4) and if we leave her name as First Last Last de Xxxxxx how do I put that down on the application?
 
Yes I am still getting it figured out as to what docs I need to get married there and how to have them translated.
I know I need my Birth Certificate with an Apostille a statement as to being single (I can get that here with an Apostille also)
And everything else I should have, like passport / entrance visa are required for entry to the country.
 
 
Any suggestions Ideas? Please speak up
 
Thanks

Thailandlet the waiting begin...update....

came home from work at 6 00pm, had a letter from homeland security,i figured damn,the RFE`s came quick. It`s I-797,I-129-F approved,10-1,valid to  1-31 2004. Stunned does not remotely describe how we feel.Songsang has a A# ,what is strange to me is the I-797 states..."the above petition has been approved and forwarded to the listed consulate"...no mention of NVC. Please ,youre thoughts...we figured we had time to work on next steps after an approval,now it seems it is possible to have interview while I am in Thailand(I leave jan.16.

Congrats dancin5hr.gif when did you file?

USCIS Service CentersIs here somebody who is waiting more than 5 months (Texas Service Centre)

NOA1 Sept 23, nothing since - "in process since November 12".  Have put in close to a dozen service requests since the 5 month "normal timeframe" passed with not a single response.  Without any actual service standards and the rhetoric of "it is an average", I do not anticipate any response.

did u email TSC?  That's my PD date.  I just put in a SR on 03/28/14.  I will email TSC after the 14 days.
