"Once approved in US, the packet goes to New Hampshire for an FBI check. This usually takes 4 weeks. The packet is then sent overseas to embassy via consular pack which can take up to 7 weeks where they will contact fiancee/spouse with packet 3. I have listed what is most commonly contained in this packet below."

I bet I know who your lawyer is as I got the exact same e-mail a while back, word for word.

these lawyers are just a waste of time and money. If they think you have no idea how the immigration process go, they will prolong it as long as possible to get paid a little extra. That's their motto in life. Good thing i got warned by my cousin who hired a lawyer and did almost nothing except filed for her petition.

Sometimes hiring an immigration lawyer is just a waste of money if your case is not complicated. My husband hired one but I was more knowledgeable with the help of VJ than she was. She even sent the application to the wrong service center :blink:
