~Dream~Love~ I think you should wait one more week. I am sure you will get it next week. If not, just email/call the Embassy & ask them to resend it. And Yes K3 requirment forms r pretty much the same. Have them ready good.gif


b4byd09No website is not gonna send the form automatically. You or you SO need to print this form & make sure you print DS156 twice & also print that barcode page. I went to my city library & got it notarized for free. Bank can also do it(for free). Court can do it(but dont think they will charge you 40$ lol. It will be more like 6 or 7$). They dont look at your bank account. If you have sufficient income. You can simply leave all asset portions of the affidavit blank. As long as your income meet 125% above poverty level, then you really dont need all that. I did send them all my Bank papers(just to be on safe side) like Bank verification letter & deposit and stuff. No, Employment letter & Paystubs are not for interview. You need to send em with your packet 3.5. Employment letter is a must thing IMO.

I will give you that parents form wheneva I go home(later today). Print & fill out two copies. Send one with your packet 3.5 & the other with your SO interview(just to be on the safe side)



Do we have to get DS156 notorized? The form's instrustions didn't require it.


no

Question to those living in Pakistan

Is it common in the villages not to have street names and number addresses? My fiance moved back to his village in November cuz his job wanted him to resign due to the fact he couldnt commit to a full year of service cuz he was honest with them and told them didnt know when he would be receiving his visa. Anyways I am concerned about this address in the village cuz it really isnt an address no street number , just the city and the post office where he is located . Is this common and im worried how this may effect our AP. He says its a everybody knows every body so the postman knows where it is and how to find him by his fathers name huh.gif . Im concerned cuz that is not how it is in the United States everybody has a address or a P.O. Box . Anyways i gave this info to the embassy about a month ago. Is the embassy aware of these villages not having IMOP a real address? Is this common? Please enlighten me helpsmilie.gif


Yes, this is common. No big deal. And it's true that everyone knows everyone in small villages. he will receive his mails in order. My family has never lost a mail due to not having street number or street name. But I suggest if he has any family member or friend business in downtown or something, then he should give that address out. Plus I am worried that NVC may not have changed my fiance address as I requested them to, so how do I call ISB embassy and find out where and when are they going to send packages?



Well the family business is in the village too with no address, i did tell them this where to send any correspondence. Just email the embassy with the address update, include your case # in the subject line and beneficiary your fiance's name and DOB they will update it there. Hopefully, they will confirm to you that it was updated. I dont think they have been responding to emails lately or maybe they just dont like me anymore devil.gif .

Oh I also have a couple questions about the DS230, guys.

And if so, what did you guys do about the police certificate? My wife tried and they said you cannot get a police certificate unless you get the letter from the embassy. Does that have to be sent in with the DS230 packet or can we send it in later?

Do I understand this correctly: my wife can send me a filled out DS230 now (besides the signature and the date) plus all the accompanying documents so I can send them in to the NVC from the US? I searched a lot but I couldn't find what documents exactly need to be submitted with the DS-230 packet. Also did you send certified translation of the birth and marriage certificates, or the originals?


I think she has to sign a release of agent form or something like that for u to do all of it. Mary can help you on it she is very knowledgeable

I used to work with a lady who was Canadian living in the US married to a USC. When she needed an operation she would go back to Canada to have it done. Dont know if there is a time limit.

If you still love her then why not seek marriage counseling before calling it quits. Everybody has problems and the beauty is that if you both still have the desire, why not try to save the marriage.

US Embassy and Consulate Discussionpolice clearance question
hi! i was just reading the requirements needed if ever our k-1 gets approved and have noticed that it says there that i should obtain a police clearance if i have lived in another country for more than 6 months after i have turned 16. i lived in the US for 13 months and just got back in Manila last month. i already have a new NBI clearance valid for travel in the US. do i still need to get a police clearance from the US or is it just for those who have lived outside of the US? i am quite confused. :huh:

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionRecieved a mail from Manila Embassy

I finally got the mail from Manila Embassy so I can schedule for an interview maybe tomorrow. Im glad we're almost there. Im just hoping that I'll pass my medical and the final interview. Im kinda hesitant still with the co-sponsor thing but I'll just cross the bridge when I get there and continue to pray :)


Hi! May I ask when your petition got approved? I'm waiting for mine too, I just want to have an idea when it will come. Thank you and good luck to both your medical and interview! :)

Hello. Do DCF ( Direct Consular Filling) It's Fast. For ME, being traumatized is not a good reason to expedite your petition. But you can try maybe you are very lucky idea9dv.gif  Good Luck. 


Thank you for your reply. How do I do that? Did you do DCF before?

Probably not since USCIS won't consider this as a good reason but you never know!!
 
Best of luck...



How come this is not a good reason? :/ her life is in danger and we'll never know what happen next. Anyway, thank you and yes good luck to us all!

Hi everyone. I just called to USCIS and emailed our state senator about expedite of my wife. My wife is from Philippines, Cebu she and her family there is experiencing a lot of strong aftershocks due to the 7.2 magnitude earthquake last October 15. I cannot help to see her cry and devastated sometimes she's so paranoid. She is so traumatized with what happened. I hope and pray our expedite will get approve. Do you think ours get approve? USCIS told me that I should wait within 10 days for the result for they will review our request. Take care all!

My wife does not live in the typhoon zone, we did not ask for our case to be expedited, but we were transferred to Nebraska 20 Nov.  It seems as if all Filipino cases are being handle in a faster than normal fashion.  I filed my petition in Oct and certainly did not expect things to be decided in the next 60 days as the notice says.


Some here think that spouses of petitioners, from Philippines, requested for an expedite. Smh

There are several people that have reported that when they put in a request for expedite it went to another pile and are waiting for review. Me thinks this has slowed down the process for these filers - especially those in the Philippines that felt their case warranted expedite because of Typhoon Yolanda - this may have clogged the workload for those who are really in dire need of a review. If your fiancee lives in anyplace other than the hardest hit areas such as Davao and Leyte - shame shame. 


The reason of our request was not because of the typhoon though My wife from Cebu hit by 2 catastrophic events (earthquake and typhoon) we didn't took advantage of it because my wife and family were spared from the tragedy. Thank God!

We received the same email a day after we put in our expedite request..it has been 2weeks now and we still dont hear anything from them after that email.


We haven't got it through email but thru a hard copy tho. Yes they mailed us a day after we request for an expedite. Lemme know if you get a response from them about your request. Will let you know too.

Did they transfer your case to a service centre?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - December 2013


If you never called you get the case# and AOS info like 30 to 60 days later. Thats why we say call. Watch your inbox and see how long that letter comes. It's crazy.
 
Since you got case# by calling you gave them your two emails so now thats how they will communicate with you now.
 
Calling always to them. Cuz now the only mail you will get is
 





  • AOS info and IV info where to go to get forms
  • If errors you get checklist
  • Case complete email (comes 1 week after actual case complete)
  • P4 letter(Interview Letter)

Thank you so much for the heads up... God bless!!! And keep safe

NVC will not send you any mail notification, you will have to keep calling them until you get the case number.


I thought they will notify us thru email/mail same as USCIS. :) thank you by the way.

Document Cover Sheets:
If you are required to submit physical civil and financial documents you must include the appropriate bar-coded cover sheet to identify the documents as belonging to your case.
If you received an applicant document processing instruction packet or a petitioner instruction packet from the National Visa Center (NVC) it contains a cover sheet which may be photocopied.


We have the document cover sheet already but the status in ceac is still in process and the ds260 is not yet available online. But thank you for your reply!!!! God bless!

Jayr&KirstineFemalePhilippines2014-01-27 02:42:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - January 2014

I think she already has the barcoded cover sheet since she already paid the IV fee. What she was asking is if they can go ahead and send the docs to nvc if the payment is already showing in the bank account but still in process in ceac.

Jayr&Kirstine,
"Members have had luck sending the packages as soon as they pay the bills (since the bar-coded cover sheet becomes available after paying). If you're not going to wait for it to appear as PAID in the portal, at least wait until the money has cleared the bank account." - from Saylin's FAQs :)



Thank you! Still waiting for the status becomes paid and ds260 to be available online after that maybe we can mail the iv package already.

Note:  It is important to follow the NVCs instructions carefully. Sending the NVC documentation (or paying fees) when they were not requested by the NVC will delay your visa.


Thank you for that!
