So as of yesterday, I have officially filed for everything I'll need for Packet 3:

- Went to the police station Monday to file for my police clearance, should see it in hand within the week.

- Called up my local health unit and asked for them to mail out a copy of my immunization record, should have it in hand within the next couple of days.

- Called up my doctor's office and convinced the secretary that it wasn't a big deal for my doctor to be listed as a guarantor so I can get a long form copy of my birth certificate, and to inform her that I was putting him down (thankfully she really had no idea what I was talking about), should have that within three weeks.

Once I have everything I need, time to get on hubby-to-be's butt about finding and/or filing to receive copies of his tax records for the past three years. :dance:

Packet 3 will list off documentation that is required by the beneficiary to bring to the interview. Burden of proof is on you to prove that your relationship is legit, so any evidence required to do so is over and above. This package includes a checklist that you must check off and sign once all of the documents listed have been gathered/filled out, then that list must be faxed off to the consulate. Once they receive that, they'll continue.

Tried to attach an example of the checklist for my consulate, but that didn't work out. :blink: If I can find the link around here, I'll post it for perusal.

Good morning! It's SO simple for him to get his tax transcripts for the last 3 years from the IRS. He calls, take 5 minutes, and it's in his mailbox within a week or so. Of course I wouldn't wait until last minute because it will probably take them longer to deliver it...lol.

GOOD MORNING EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets see some more approvals today so that our turn in the spotlight will come soon.

PEACE..............

GOOD MORNING!!!!! :D ALOT more approvals today!

ScottThuy: you are 259 on igor ..

Yes I just saw that, thanks. Waiting for it to update on the Berkely list.

hey everybody...what's this berkely list?

Hi, I am not really sure what it is myself as I am a newbie, but I did see it being mentioned in other threads. My understanding is that it is another list also by Igor but published from a Berkeley website. I am not even sure who Igor is but looks like he is someone who compiles a lof of information from VJ users here. I think he has some statistical software and analysis done based on the data we provide on our timelines and the processing times at the Visa Service Centers.
