nice dress sunnybear!it suits you well! ; )

Pam, I wish you all the best!and have a nice wedding party!enjoy!

Blake, I wish you good luck for your interview! :thumbs:

Cecile, I'm sorry about your I-94, it sucks! i hope they will resolve this very soon!

When I went to the SSN the girl told me the same thing as you though.that i shouldn't change my name now. I should have my maiden name for AOS...what do you think?we should wait until we send AOS and got a NOA?

Did anyone start to work on the AOS yet? if yes, what are your suggestions on what to do for the I-693A? I don't have the vaccination forms... should I ask the doctor that performed the medical exam for a copy? And would I still need to go to a civil surgeon here in the US to have it signed?

From what I read here http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...st&p=297233 you can get it with your married name. AOS and social security are two different things, and while SS can depend on AOS, I doubt that AOS needs info from the SSA. So I'd say that you can change your name now.

No news on my problem so far (butt I wasn't expecting anything fast anyway). it's probably going to take a month before I get news anyway (I'll call them in 3 weeks, and then I'll call them at least once a week). What I wonder now is if I should wait until I send my AOS. I asked it here http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=149189 and got two different answers. and they both make sense :( What do you guys think?

Pam, I hope your wedding went as well as you planned. Congratulations :)

:dance::dance::dance::dance::dance: Approved :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

Olga's visa was approved and everything went smoothly (once we arrived) The previous posts about what to expect were very helpful (thank you Gary and Alla). They did not have even one question for us. Olga's paperwork was flawless thanks to this website and the people who contribute to it. In a little over two weeks Olga and my soon to be stepson will meet me at the airport in Kiev for the journey over. Finally!!!!!

Thank you to everyone for your support, we never would have made it through this process without your support.

Now to celebrate, Ukrainian style.....

Love to all, Blake & Olga
