IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAffidavit of support and documents
In your post you say you are submitting the I-864 (Affidacit of support) If so, then the police cert & brith certificates are not needed for this submission. Those documents would be a part of your DS-230 (Visa Applicaton) submission.

This is what I sent for my I-864 and it sailed through with out any problems:

Coversheet w/barcode
I-864 Form
Tax Returns (last 3 years...if you filed for 2007, you must inckude that)
Employment Letter (Stating position, salary, tenure, and standing)
Pay Stbs (Last 3 pay periods)

I hope this helps...keep asking questions! Be Well & Peace!!! good.gif

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresA thread for those in the final stages at NVC!
Well, the AVR hasn't changed on our case yet. tongue_ss.gif I was really hoping it would have, because I too don't want to wait for an August interview date, but really I will take any "real" date they give to us. I will post what I hear first thing on Monday morning. I am in California so it won't be till around 6:30am. I will speak to a live operator though and get the complete story. Be Well & Peace to all of us!!!!!!!!!!

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresA thread for those in the final stages at NVC!
Hey guys!!! I am sure we will all be sprinting to the finishing very very soon. I still haven't heard "case complete" yet, and when I talk to a live operator yesterday she told me it normally takes 2-4 weeks to process the DS-230, not the 6-8 weeks that the AVR says. And we all know by talking to each other, it can be much less. I am hoping we can get our interview the 1st or 2nd week of July, because my wife would love to be in the USA for her birthday on Juloy 19th...I am praying for all of us.
Arequipa4usMalePeru2008-05-30 08:45:00

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresDS-230
Hey Karl...
I sent in both Part I & II of the DS-230. We completed both parts, but my wife only signed Part I, the instructions said Part II would be signed in front of the CO at the interview. I know there are different guidelines depending on the country, so your case may be different. I am sure there are others who can give you more info, but this is what I did. Right now my AVR says they have received the checklist, and when I speak with a live operator I am told it still being reviewed. I haven't received any RFEs, so I suspect we have done everything correctly. Hope this helps.?.?.?

Be Well & Peace

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAnother case complete - what's next?
The NVC says they schedule interview appointments during the 2nd week of the month for the following month. I don't know how it works when your case completes during the 2nd week of the month as well. But it is based on the embassy capacity, so if the interview slots for July have not already been filled, you could very well receive a interveiw date in July. It took us 8 days from "Case Complete" to receive an interview date. Maybe others from Tokyo can give you a better answer. Be Well & Peace

US Embassy and Consulate Discussion1 week?
Thank you both. Yes we do have our work cut out for us. I am sending in my last 4 LES, the military pay stub, along with a letter from my commander for proof of employment. So all I have to do is the I-134 as the US fiance?

US Embassy and Consulate Discussion1 week?
So the Embassy in Lima told my fiancee last Tuesday, January 4, that our interview is next Wednesday, January 12. I am active duty Military and cannot make it to the interview, so I am trying to prepare everything I can for her. My problem is, I never received a packet stating which documents I need to fill out and send. My fiancee in Peru had to go to the embassy to get hers in time also. Can anybody help me and let me know what forms and/or types of documents I need to send? I have to scan them and send them that way or fax too as no postal or courier service can deliver before the date. I am sooo stressed! Somebody please help!

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA2, when will you come....

oh good god! 5 months!! and this is all with california service centre!!! wow... we just got our NOA1 last week so looks like i'm in for a long ride.. my friend applied last november and was in the states exactly 6 months later and she had major delays getting police clearance from all the countries she has lived in... and she still got to US in 6 months!! but that was vermont service centre... :(



I understand. I had a friend do this last year coming from Peru, and she arrived 4 months after her 129F was filed. I hate her now and wish this wait would end.
