Can anyone tell me what some people are talking about -going to a ACH Session. Is it something I need to look into?

Hi Silverfox

You'll find lots of info on that over at Candle for Love but ACH is American Citizens Hour and ACS is American Citizen Services. You can go to either one.

The advantage at a difficult embassy like Guangzhou is that you get to speak to a VO and they will note your conversation in your wife/fiancee's file.

I'll tell you my personal experience. There was no ACH the week of my wife's (then fiancee) interview so I went to ACS for the purpose of having an Evolution of Relationship letter notarized for my wife to take with her in case she was asked. I handed it in at one window and was sent off to pay for the service then came back and waited a bit after handing in my receipt. I was called up to the window and had a very good talk with a VO. He brought up my wife's file on his computer and was kind enough to look through the letter. He noted some areas that they sometimes have questions about and I was able to give him further info relating to those questions while he typed into my wife's file. At the end he told me everything looked good.

Now some have been told everything looks good at Guangzhou only to get Blue at the interview, but being able to tell my wife he said that really calmed her down and made her more confident going into the interview. She had a very smooth interview and I can't tell you for sure that my conversation at ACS was directly responsible for that result, I don't think it hurt us. I suspect the entire letter was scanned into her file and I was able to provide specific answers to possible questions.

I would recommend you make an online appt if you go to ACS as it seemed to save some time over people who just showed up and took a number, which is the other option.

Let me know if you have other questions about that.

this is a consulate issue and not really general discussion regarding a K-1... these are best posted in the consulate or the regional forum when

moving to the regional forum

YMMV

Its a chinese forum. Sorry but you or your better half dont look to be from china.

Are you looking to move questions within the forum you fit in, or just china?

Where else would the man ask? Lets see, wifes from China, there is a forum for

China within the website..Seems he would first ask in the Chinese Forum, not the

general population..ACH in China (IS) a general discussion regarding any K visa.

Thats all you will find out, general info..Seems you need to delete or (otherwise)

move the China forum..Your way out of line..

Its a general #######-for-tat silver..Not a place for details about your case.

Mostly thats all. Kinda like a phone call to uscis in person. You can

push your case but might not get any results..Been there more than

once, our home is in GZ..Check out IKEA next door.

I gave up waiting in the building :blink:

Oh..Boss man from Ukraine is it??

When did anything Chinese become your concern :wacko:

Strange one you are

Hey Buddy silerfox RELAX. Threads are moved where they think they will get the best exsposure. So do not have a cow. It was done with your benifit in mind.

PS Personel attacks are against TOS please refrain from posting in this manner. Organizers are here to help and do not need to take this when they are acting on the OP's behalf.

ididntdoit this post was orginally in the K-1 forum so before you jump to conclusions know what you are talking about.

Back to topic to the OP good luck. Candleforlove is also a great place to post questions

Why is it that the only one who can stop the crying is the one who started it in the first place?

I have just read over this thread and will add that personal insults are indeed a violation of TOS. Please treat other members of VJ with respect - there is never an excuse for insults or personal attacks.

As well, payxibka is an Organizer. An Organizer is a member of VJ given special responsibilities by Administration to do exactly what payxibka did - move a thread that had been posted in a forum that was not suited for getting the best answer to where it would get the best answer. This responsibility is one of the means by which we are able to keep VJ a helpful, supportive site. Instead of attacking him, you should be thanking him.
