Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)What questions will Naples,Italy Embassy ask?
QUOTE (grinchus @ Oct 24 2009, 11:48 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
P.S. regarding what they asked: They asked him where/how we met, what I did for a living, when we became engaged...and that was about it, really. All of our paperwork was in order and well organized, and the whole thing went pretty quickly.


I am the petitioner and i received the packet 3 in my email.
Will dhl still deliver the packet to my fiance as well in italy?
I am very confused as to why they sent it via email to me.

Europe & Eurasia (except the UK and Russia)What questions will Naples,Italy Embassy ask?
Hi to everyone,

I am the petitioner and I am wondering if there is anyone who has been through the the Embassy consulate in Naples, Italy. If so would you be so kind as to let me know what to expect for my Fiance? I plan on being there for his interview but just in case something happens and I can not be there I would like to know what to expect. Like what questions will they ask? How much is the medical? Has the Visa fee been raised? How fast is it issued if approved? Please, Please any help will be appreciated.

Thanks so much

Tracee

Hi my Fiance and I are in the very very begining of the Fiance visa process.
We are still gathering all the information that we need.
I really need help with the whole process, it is so confusing sometimes.
But our main question at the moment is about the police reports required.
See he lives and works in Italy, but his nationality is Egyptian, so does he need
a police report from both Italy and Egypt?


yes, if he lived in Egypt at any time after the age of 16

Thank you very much!

Hi
Does anyone know if/how to apply with a joint sponser?

For what purpose/visa?



for the k-1 visa, i dont meet their financial standards, but my fiances cousin does
so can he be a joint sponser for us?
The co sponsor simply provides an I-134 and financial evidence for the form, like IRS retiurns or transcripts, employer letter, pay stubs.

You, the petitioner still provide an I-134 too even if using a co-sponsor.

Since I-134 is needed at the time of interview, NOT when filing I-129F, this tread is being moved to consulate/embassy forum.


thank you.....also could you tell me what "touched means" I have been looking all through here and it scares me how long this process could take.

Welcome to VJ! Sorry, but i'm a little confused. Are you engaged or married?

I love Italy! Lived in Vajont.


Hi and thank you. We are engaged. We were married by an Islamic Priest which does not
hold any legal standing but Mohamed wanted to follow his religious belief.
We lived in Ravenna, Mohamed is still there.

Middle East and North AfricaJust wanted to say Hi and Introduce myself
Hi everyone,
My name is Tracee and I am engaged/married to Mohamed Ahmed Madani Ibrahim.
I was told of this group by a friend I met on VJ by the name of Aya she is engaged to John.
She said this is a great place for support in going thru this process.

Mohamed (Mo) and I met online 2 yrs ago talked via phone and internet....one day I received an e-mail
from him asking me to marry him that was April 15th 2008. In August 2008 I went to Italy which is where he is living and working...he is from Suez Egypt. We had 9 wonderful months together. I came back to the States to start the visa process
and as everyone else I am struggling with being away from him and not knowing when I will get to be with him again.

It is very hard for us to be able to talk with work schedules and time differences.
It is also hard for me to get him to understand some of the process and this has me worried.

Anyway that is my introduction for now. I hope to make friends here.

Good luck to all
Hope to talk soon
Tracee Madani Ibrahim

There is a wonderful mix of MENA vj'ers ---------some have their SO's here and some are waiting. This thread is for the ones clicking on the USCIS website 1,000 times a day. For the ones having to rely on webcams and phone cards to sustain their relationships.

Check in and let's keep each other company while we wait. What are you doing to fill your time?

I am a June filer for CR1 and July for K3.

I did see some May filer approvals ! Are you all checking alot to look for a 'touch' ? Rajaa did you get touched yet?

Lulu just escaped and on his way to NVC..... Who else is waiting here? Lulu you keep us posted here on your progress.

Jackie rose.gif

eta: Does the K3 noa come quick?


Hi I filed the I129 in late May but have not heard anything since the NOA1.
Mohamed and I talk a lot on the phone....very expensive and use the cam also.

I check everyday many many times a day!!!

Honestly I spend my time worrying all the time and missing Mohamed
thinking about where he is and what he is doing when we aren't talking.
With the time difference and our work schedules it is hard for us to talk.
We do manage to talk at least once a day though.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Procedureswhat does this mean

According to a previous post by nabaabdurrahman, "scheduled for delivery as agreed" is the default on the DHL website. i remember from that post, which i copied the info for future reference, when the embassy hands the passport off to DHL, it should say something like (and i quote from the post):

"Arrived at Sort Facility Cairo Egypt (it means its in DHL's possession)
Processed at Cairo Egypt
Departed Facility in Cairo Egypt (this means it left Garden City, Cairo)
Arrived at Delivery Facility in Cairo Egypt (this means it has arrived at whichever city delivers to the address..in our case Nasr City, Cairo)
With Delivery courier (this means it is out for delivery)
Signed by ______(this means VISA IN HAND!! woooohoooo)"

hope this helps...
<br style="mso-special-character:line-break"> <br style="mso-special-character:line-break">


hopefully others with actual experience in this will chime in... i just relay what i learn from others...
