Lol... Lee at least you aren't expected to be good at golf. My last name is Mulligan.... I get "Oh, do you play golf?" "No but I make a nasty stew!"

Oh, and morning all!

Also I just put up a new pic of us in Spain, it's not anything exciting except us together. We're inside his friends house at the time wink.gif.



Aww you too look so cute together.

I actually like the stew.

Thank you! I've never had the stew actually. I think it calls for rocks? tongue.gif I did find old golf clubs and my brothers and I used them to hit rocks into the river, that was my most memorable "golfing" experience.

Its not as amazing to be 21 now that I lived abroad where the drinking age was 17 lol. I've had my fill of adventures so far.. hehe. The metal music clubs in Athens are quite "tasteful" as well! Lampros and I are "kind" of music junkies.

I'm bringing originals and also copies in case they want to stay with something i would tell them to keep the copy and that i need the original, or at least so i could keep a copy of the original if they keep anything...such as my W2

here are the forms that need to be brought into the interview btw....
http://www.visajourn...mp;page=k1forms

I'll bring all of the originals too then I suspect. I have everything all sorted into a little accordion folder so it's neat too tongue.gif.

Another question:

Do we have to reprint out the 4 copies of the G-325a again as well? I mean as to make a whole separate and new addition to the ones we filled out previously for the two of us?

as far as i've read you were suppose to make copies of the whole packet that you send to...for instance....Vermont service center... or whichever center you sent it to.... just bring the copies of the whole packet.
What i did is... i scanned everything at work and have it as a pdf so i'm free to print it wherever or in case i lose a paper i can reprint a copy. Hope this helped...

Yes, thank you!

Hello Everyone!

I'm leaving tomorrow to see my Lampros, finally! I'm bringing him all the documents I collected and was just wondering on opinion of:

Are you guys sending originals of everything? I made copies of NOA1/NOA2 and even my birth certificate ... will this be substantial enough? I'm worried to send any part of original document as I've heard they snatch it up..

Any help will be greatly appreciated biggrin.gif

Morning all!

It's going to be almost 6 months since I've seen Lampros, but I'm going to see him this Thursday for a week! He's back home in Athens now and has opened the packet and looked through the documents. It says something about him needing a military status "A" which stated on the travel.state.gov site, is an order stating he has FINISHED the military... I'm at loss for what to do if we can't even do the visa while he's doing this obligation.... UGH.

Congrats all on your approvals too!! and WOOOOOOOT for ROMAN!

Well... it makes sense that the US government would not issue a visa that would in theory allow someone to go AWOL from a foreign service. Having said that, there should be a work around to this problem... like get the interview and withhold the actual visa??

Well... not that we haven't thought of him to just leave the service and come here... whistling.gif But have decided very against it in actuality..

I'll suggest that idea anyways, that way we won't have to start this all over again.. I can't imagine after his service to start this process all over. wacko.gif

i actually just started working ... so i will be needing my father to sponsor... how does that work? would i be filling out two I-134s?

My Mom is our co-sponsor for the affidavit too. You'll need to fill out your own I134 and then your Father to fill out a full one as well, stating his income bank accounts etc. My Mom has her own business so it might be a little different, but from what I've read and been told she only needs to give copies of last years tax transcripts and then fill out the I-134.

Hope that helps! good.gif


hey....my dad also has his own business....and im working with him this year. i dont have any tax returns rite now so i guess my dad can write a letter stating that i work for him?

I think that would be ok. He will obviously be the main financial support for the affidavit, as my Mom is for ours. She ordered from the IRS (free) a summary copy of her last years transcripts and that should be all she needs, plus to do her own affidavit paper (I-134). I hardly make enough money on my own to suggest the means to support my fiance and I so I'm just putting together everything that would say I am at least trying. Such as:

Bank statement with: Date opened
Total amount deposited past year
Present Balance
Statement from employer stating salary by year (my case per hour) and that I'm a permanent and part time employee, also states job title.
Then I got my own copies of my transcripts, 1040's, and W-2's since 2004.

These are all to support the affidavit on my part and then of course more documents are needed for the foreign fiance's interview, which is listed under guides here.

You can also download the I-134 affidavit instructions which is quite helpful and lists everything you need and is supposedly required reading for filling out the actual document.

Good luck! wink.gif

"I INTEND TO DEVOTE MY LIFE TO PERSON NAMED IN ITEM 3. TO LOVE AND CHERISH AND YES, FURNISH
WITH ROOM, BOARD AND LOTS OF LOVE FOR HIS ENTIRE LIFE."

The numerical portions of this aren't as important as my Mom is doing a co-sponsorship for us, and makes well above to support him as her dependent.

I'm getting all the paperwork together for the packet 3 in hopes that it's close to what he has listed in his paperwork in Athens.. He'll be back in a couple days before we meet in Spain so that's good.

Are you guys including the original documents? Like I had given copies of ticket stubs before, so now do I have to send the real ones with him? We'll also take a million pictures when we meet and I can give him the itinerary copies of the trip.

I read about all the discussion to change the thread back to topic...ehm..bit late maybe? Anyways, I do like the idea Richard suggested with the question mark.

For our honey moon, or even if we're having a wedding...I'm up in the air about where we'll even be LIVING by the time he gets here. He might come into VA then we'll drive over to the west coast, which will be awesome as he's never even stepped a foot in the states. Or he'll just fly directly to Seattle and then our honey moon will be just existing together... both very exciting. He'll be happy to be out of the army and won't mind just staying put.

Derek, I can't believe the tragic state of your case, it's really disheartening. So the USCIS screws up and now it's in some storage facility?? I hope for the best for you and your honey till they figure out how to get their head out of their ####...

Richard, My Lampros has never been to the states at all, and a good chance he won't til he moves her permanently. He lived in the UK for 7 odd years, so it's not going to be a harsh change... What all did your SO find strange? Curious what his culture shock will be like..hehe.


The fact that it is in a storage facility is pretty much expected. The VSC approved it and (thought) they were done with it. If the NOA2 had been correctly delivered, the file would not be needed for many months, and then would be needed by a different office (the local field office, not the VSC) when they process the AOS. So until then, they need the space for all the other pending cases, so they put it in storage.

Ok, that does make sense. I was just thinking they had "accidentally" sent it off and "oops" his case was buried.

Richard- I had told him about school buses when I was living with him in Greece. I said their big and yellow and carry 100 children. Most kids walk to their schools in Greece also, as they aren't 40 miles away, but maybe 1 at most. Or public transportation. I think a big deal for him will be when we move to Seattle and we'll be in the city with giant sky scapers, monorails and mass traffic. The tallest buildings in Greece are about 10 stories (maybe lower, higher) but because of the earthquakes.

Thats the point Derek. They know that, so they can raise the prices to $1000 for the medical and people would have no choice but to pay.

If our medical costs 1k dollars... we're in for some rough times when he gets here, more so than it will be already! But so I hear.. the Greek American Embassy is laid back and will probably ask like 50 E or something. ( fingers crossed for laidbackness)

The letter stated that in response to a call I made to them about my change of address not being recorded I asked if they would send another one. Here's what the letter said.

The status of this service is:

I didn't file an I-130 and the Embassy already has our petition. This is to show how truly screwed up USCIS really is.

Woah.... Did you call anyone yet? That is ludicrous!
