January Filers at the CSC - How are you doing?

[Alex & Rachel 78]

I was wrong! I thought that being in Costa Rica you may not have the time to get/access to a computer. Thank you for reporting back to us and good luck again!

7.5 hours non stop? Ooouch! Having flat feet I find walking too long immensely painful - although my insoles help quite a bit. Good to see that Greivin's taking good care of you, though.

Vancouver accepts faxes (but bring the originals to the interview), Montreal insists on the originals being mailed back.

Guess what! I got my NOA2! Wooh. I didn't think I'd get this excited... I was looking at Igor's list last night and thinking how sad it was that some of the other January folk hadn't been to VJ for a few months, so who knew if they had been approved or not and it wasn't helping the rest of us who were waiting! Now I really hope the rest of the January peeps get theirs too!!!!!!!!!!! So even if you're a naturalized citizen and your fiance/e has a common name, there is hope!!!

I wanna share the happy news that my interview date has been set, its going to be on 26th June

(This Thursday) at the consulate in Singapore. I had earlier returned my DS2001 in person (lol! thy let me into the embassy). The very next day they sent me the interview letter.

That better be good as it is my birthday

Also, I read a few answers on your questions but I think the answers should be the following:

1. Will they give back my original records? like birth certificate, vaccination record, medical examination

4. I read that for AOS I can use the same medical record and vaccination record. So is there any specific thing I must do to get those copies?

1. You will get them back in the brown envelop that will be send to you. The envelop is sealed and should not be opened but should be surrendered at the POE. If you want to be sure, then also add a copy of each original so they can give you the original back if needed (they will not make copies for you).

4. The answers are basically provided on this page: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;page=k1k3aos

See the following lines:

- A copy of the intending immigrant's birth certificate along with English translation. (note: it says a copy so it doesn't have to be the original, besides, you should never send originals to USCIS - Jeroen).

- I693, Medical Examination of Aliens Seeking Adjustment of Status. (If you already have this from your overseas Visa Interview submit a copy that medical check form; No fee is required in this case. If you are a K-1 fiancé(e) or K-2 dependent who had a medical examination within the past year as required for the nonimmigrant fiancé(e) visa, you only need to submit a vaccination supplement (I-693A), not the entire medical report. You may include the vaccination supplement with your adjustment of status application.)

Your spouse may also be required to have a medical sometime during the AOS process. The medical must be done by a CIS Designated Civil Surgeon. Your CIS office should give you a list of CIS accredited doctors in your area, if not check with your local office to get one. The medical exam can cost anywhere from $100-200 dollars, many physicians will not take a check, but only accept cash. Be prepared of the cost before your spouse gets this done. It would be wise to collect their vaccination information before going to the appointment as the doctor will need to have record of them. At the appointment your spouse will be tested for TB, AIDS and Syphilis. If they do the skin test for TB, they will be required to return to the CIS doctors office to have the site checked before they finish the exam paperwork. Note: Some CIS Offices allow you to schedule your appointment when you want, as long as it is done before the AOS appointment, check with your CIS office to see how they handle CIS medical exams before filing your AOS paperwork.

Hope this helped a bit

Thank you Rachel, Bryan and Mitchell for your pointers.

Hi everyone!

I was away for few days. Thank you all for your congratulations!

When I came back from my "get away week end" I had another great surprise: packet 3!!!

The problem is I don't know if I will send it ever, 'cos it's been weeks that I'm trying to get my police clearance from China, but it's just impossible!

I have another problem, but this one easier I think. On packet 3 I need to write down Damon's current address and the address I will be staying at. But he's going to move on the 21st of July. What should I write?

-Congrats to all who got their NOA2s & interviews!!!!!!

-Shes, it's great that you've been touched!good thing!!

And congratulations to you! hopefully you don't have to wait too long now!

I would write his current address in the "current address" spot if you send packet 3 back before the 21st of July.

And for the address you will stay at, I would put the future address, and add a cover letter explaining that he will move the 21st and that the address you will be staying at is the new one.

I almost had a similar problem: Bryan was going to move the 15th of June, but I got packet 3 the 12th, so I wrote his new address everywhere (and explained in the cover letter why it was different than the address on the I-129F) You can read this too: petitioner moving
