biggish data

DS230 printed or james's shortcut!!!

Honestly, as long as the form was generated by the NVC before you sent this out and you have the barcode and correct address and information - it should be ok. It looks good to me.

Problem in DS 230!

I know this for a fact, that if during that 10 year time period you were unemployed, you must state so. All of your dates must be join; as in leave no open dates. I had the same problem at first.

Help with I-130/G-325A filing

A typed signature is sometimes just as valid as an original signature.... I wouldn't assume that the VSC is going to assume your intentions in this case.... I would have it done the right way.... That's my 2 cents.

You know Przy, I like your timeline specially the last part, I am wishing my case can be completed in a week after today (just entered into the system) like yours and maybe we (my husband and I) can still catch September Interviews in Nicaragua (although I don't think there are too many Nicaraguans applying for CR1, I know a few that applied and already got their K1) but still I heard that NVC set up the interviews of the next month in the first 2 weeks of the past month (how true is that?)

That's what I was told by the operators (regarding interview scheduling)... in addition to that, everyone here seems to be receiving their interview dates within the first 2 weeks of every month. I am pretty sure it's accurate. You probably have a good chance of getting a September interview date.

Nothing to thank me for! I understand your reason for panicking, but sometimes when you have no control over the situation anyways, it isn't worth the stress (as you found out).

Here's hoping for a speedy "case complete" notice for you!

Hi Przy!
Tausend Dank für die Netten Glück Wünsche!
Ich hatte meinem interview zusagen heute leicht gehabt, es hat ungefähr 5 minuten officer gespräch gedauert dabei wurden von ihm nur 2 oder 3 fragen gestellt und der Rest war bissel spass und witze über die Menschen menge im saal, die noch auf ihm warten (heute waren ungefähr 350 personen darin gewessen aber Du hast den Eindruck wie 35000 schauen sich gemeinsam ein Bundes Liga Spiel Bremen Vs. Schalke!!!!) - (beginnt window 23 Passport+Passphoto abgabe + Blanco envlope abholung zweck addressat - sehr nette Dame) + (window 17 envlope rückgabe + visum/ssn erklärung/POE verhalten + welcome to america booklein abholung). Ich ging in der Botschaft um 09:35 und draussen war ich 10:35. Hinweiss Du brauchst keine Angst/Sorgen zu machen/haben ich bin mir 1000%ig sicher dass Du zu frieden nach Bermen zurück fährest. Bitte sei nur selbst, authentisch und natürlich und Du bekommst deinem Interview mit links hin.
Noch ein Rat veruche die Nacht unbedingt im Frankfurt zu verbringen bitte vermeide jeder zusätzliches stress!!!! (man weiss nie wasfür geister!! nachts auf der Autobahn herrum/entgegen fahren oder wo noch nachts auf der Autobahnen zwischen Bremen und Frankfurt umgebaut und erneut wird).

Tip:
***CONTINENTAL, Frankfurt***
hier kannst Du für 40,50 Euro ***übernachten + Frühstücken + 5 Schritte von Frankfurt hbf * 15 Minuten bis zum US Botschaft (U-Bahn 5)

Ich geb dir voll recht wegen übernachten in Frankfurt. Das wird auf jeden Fall besser aber ich versuchs mal mit fahren. Wir haben ein GPS und es wird mein zweites Mal nach Frankfurt zu fahren.

My husband will have his CR1 interview in Frankfurt, Germany on August 13, 2008 at 8:00am. He already decided that he will leave Bremen (wayyyyy north) and drive to Frankfurt, which is a 4 hour drive. He's going to leave early, early morning so that he will be able to arrive at 6:45-7:00am. It is better to show up earlier than late.

I have already sent him copies of our:
I-130 Packet
G-325A Biographical Forms
I-864 (additional I-864 from a joint sponsor, *if needed*)
DS-3032 Email Choice of Agent
DS-230 In case something gets lost

In addition to that, I photocopied all important documentation in case something is lost (birth certificate, marriage certificate, military papers and so on). I sent emails, chat logs, phone bills, plane tickets/boarding passes, a photo album with over 150 labeled photos, birthday cards, christmas card, etc. Pretty much everything they requested he has - The purpose of this post isn't to ask for what I need to send or not... it's a little too late for that and I am 100% positive he has everything he needs (except me in Germany

) ...I was just letting you guys know the stuff I sent out as a "just in case" precaution.

I will be sure to post about the interview and anything else that may pop up along the way.

After all, my journey could be the same one you're on, or one you're going to make.

Anyway, that's it for now... wish us luck!

Best regards,

Mr. and Mrs. Przy

Wow, wow, wow, Mr. & Mrs. Przy

Wish you both all the best for a cake walk at the consulate

I know you changed the name, but I still gotta call you Loto. That's ok? Anyway, thank you for the well-wishes and the enlightenment (if you will) for the difficult parts in my journey.

Yes, here's hoping for the best.

How is life treating Mr. and Mrs. Loto these days?

Best wishes to you both.

I would like to sincerely thank everyone else who has also been a big help to not only myself, but the other VJ members here. You all are appreciated!

Best regards,

Przy, Mrs. Loto is cooking very well for me

After a long time, I am eating some good food... hahaha

Not too shabby.

Glad to 'read' things are going well for you both.

I can't wait to have my authentic German dishes again. I wish August 13 would come by a little faster. Well, Mr. Przy is going to leave Germany at the end of September, so Aug 13 doesn't matter much... (other than the interview
