Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI-751 sent 92 days before, but check cashed yesterday???
don't freak out, man. even if it arrived a day or two early, you're not their first priority. i.e., it will take them at least couple of days to actually open it up, which is supported by the check being cashed on the 7th. unless they cashed the check to re-issue you a new one and send it back lol
MiminoMaleMoldova2011-06-23 13:07:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionIts Almost That Time...
didn't want to clutter up the forum even more. my gc expires on 10/05. Is it ok to file about a month before? (it does say within 90 days) i'm fixing to travel in mid august and didn't want to mess up the process. thank you!
MiminoMaleMoldova2011-06-23 13:13:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionDoes Oklahoma City ASC accept early bio (walk-in)?
i'd hope they still have human beings working there lol when i had my biometrics done there, they did seem kinda strict with the time frames. you could reschedule if you don't want to chance it.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionTravelling during ROC
hmm, my gc expires in october of this year. i'm planning on visiting home in august and submitting the papers around early august or september. can anyone verify this 6-months rule for sure? i do have my home country's passport to use as well.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionLegal Requirement - possession of greencard

Will it be a pain in the butt to replace if he loses his wallet? Yes, but so will his drivers license, bank cards and everything else


compared to replacing a lost/stolen gc, those are a cake to replace. don't even mention the cost of a new gc...
MiminoMaleMoldova2011-06-27 10:38:00

thank you, Kathryn! that makes perfect sense :)

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionChanging last name
Hey, all!

We're in the process of removing conditions (paperwork received by uscis in August). I'm looking to slightly adjust my last name (from ...schi to ...ski), and was wondering what steps are necessary?

Thank you.
MiminoMaleMoldova2011-12-18 14:18:00
Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionFiled I 751 in August - heard nothing since then

I just checked USCIS status of mine (submitted August 30) and says Initial Review. This probaby means it is on record of being received but no person has started any review or process towards any decision. California office has approved many August filers. Makes you wonder what is happening up in Vermont.
I also checked and average times is now 7.1 months at Vermont, up from 6 months to process as it stated in August. I guess we just have to be patient and not be concerned until the end of March.


Same here. Got our papers on Aug. 2, did the bio and then nothing lol Patience is the key here, as always. good luck to you, all!

P.S. 303 days total.

Asia: East and PacificMedical Exam Doctor Selection

Ok here's the scoop on Dr. Narain Punjabi

Had an 8.30am appt but we showed up at 8am and were seen right away anyway since we were the only ones there at the time.
Nice and proper setup, it's a private practice run from the basement of his house. It's a very nice house in a very inpressive neighborhood.
Confirmed he used to do this for the embassy directly but decided to open his own practice which is why he is on the list along with Medikolgia
Apparently when he's not doing this his specialty is he is actually a pediatrician so the sign says above his office door.
He was very nice and very professional. Most everything was done in 5 minutes.
He gave my wife 2 shots (MMR & Chicken Pox I think)
He sent us to a local lab that was a typical lab for the blood draw and x-ray.
He was kind enough to have his personal driver take us there since our taxi had already left. We didn't ask, he offered.
Lab took about 30 minutes and the drive was maybe 10 minutes. We were back at the hotel at maybe 9.30?
Lab said they will deliver the results to him.
Although he originally said to come back the next day for the result he said we could just come back to his house/office at 5.15pm an we did so same day results!

I can't remember the fee breakdown exactly right but here is what I do remember:

We paid him 1,050,000 (like $100) and paid another 180k at the lab for their part.
His fee was 400k or so for the exam and the rest were the two shots.

He made a point to show us the bottles the shots came from so we could see they were still good and from the USA.

I highly recommend him.


oh wow thank you for the good review furble :) it's very helpful
i will go to Dr.Punjabi for my medical exam :)
