Africa: Sub-Saharana hello and some concerns

Welcome MBJM.
I must admit I'm a bit jealous that you get to live over there. It sounds like a great opportunity. Best of luck to you on your upcominning visa process. Do they do DCF from Uganda? If so that will be great for you.
As far as your concerns about bringing him to the US I think they are valid. My husband is here now and it has been great for us, but we are both learning about the misconceptions. One thing someone else mentioned in a different thread was the difference in coming from a "cash" country to a "credit" one. Many people see us all over here with cars and houses and assume we had to pay cash for them, not realizing we have a 30 year mortgage and 10 year loans on our vehicles. The concept of credit, interest, terms, minimum pays, etc. is often overwhelming.

Anyway, best wishes to the both of you on your journey.

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI 751 interview need helppppp

well at such interviews u normally appear husband and wife , they ask yo wife a certain question and then the same question is indirectly asked to the hubby to see if u all have contradicting answers and for the case of missing documents u need to have all of them handy n make copies like 2 of each n never know they may not ask for them for example for ma case before i had ma interview they had told me i had missing documents on ma hubby's tax returns and they told me to come with the missing documetns and i tried as much as i could to have all ma documents ready n in hand trust me at the day of the interview i was more than ready but when the big moment arrived she only asked me for pictures of me n ma hubby n ma birth certificate n ma interview was scheduled at 6.30am and by 8am i was done wit everything but u know all the security checks u go thru so ma final interview was like at 7.50am n in 5mins i was done wit ma interview .Have lots of pix of u guys together in different places u both visited ,flaunt yo rings in pix(lol) pix wen u r kissin (smiles) n more n for ma case i had all pix in different places n wat i did is i placed the ones that caught her attention on top n she said i love yo pix n she dint look thru the rest

Am inquiring about the DS-230 and the AOS,well last week i got feedback from NVC and they had sent me the IV fee which was 230$ and then my petitioner(husband) paid it and we were able to get a receipt and the cover sheet so i was being told that i have to fill out DS-230 which i did and i got a copy already with me and ma question is that is it right to send DS-230 and AOS together or do i send them separately and also does it matter on who is to send the packages where its me the beneficiary or ma husband the petitioner .THANKS

Hey ,the petitioner (husband ) paid for the DS-230 n its still in process but he( husband )also finished paying for the AOS fee and we have all receipts showing payments are all clear ,and my question is does it matter on who sends the packages and is it ok or right after filling the AOS form and the DS-230 to send them together or which form am i meant to send in first because i have all ma forms with me but am asking to get to find out the right way of getting things together . Thanks

the phone number has no bearing on you process, what is important is the email, I am assuming your husband is going to be your agent. As long as they have your correct email and his correct email so, you can receive communications from the NVC. you will be fine.




thanx very much am goin to call and give them the number but his email address is same i mean ma hubby's number and the other thing is from them receiving your 3230 whats next n how long will it take to get to the interview level.
