Another US/Dutch couple here. I am in the Netherlands (Northern part) and my fiance is from PA. We are gathering the papers for the K1 and are hoping to file this week.

Mmhmm that is the number he called. It's the standard number they give you for pretty much anything. I've called it several times during our K1 application as well. Now was this e-mail sent after you

So for the VoG, I'm a little bit confused. The form that I get off of my Gemeente's website has 2 parts. 1 that I fill in and the next part is "Invullen door Organisatie / Instelling die de VoG verlangt."

Do I fill in the information of the embassy here or do I leave all of those blank?

February 15th - sent package to Dallas. Took a long time to get to Dallas because of weather conditions and delays.

March 3rd - NOA1.

March 5th - Received alien registration number.

August 21st- NOA2.
September 8th - NVC received package and assigned case #
September 11th - Embassy received package.

Hi there! I filled in the information of the Amsterdam consulate, except for the contact person, which I didn't know. Left that line blank. The gemeente said the accompanying letter from the USCIS that I printed and gave them was enough evidence that the consulate was really requesting my police certificate.

Good luck!

Thanks for the information :D

I don't have packet 3 yet, so I'm going to add a copy of my NOA2 and a print out of the embassy website where it says I'll need a VoG. Those 2 should be enough proof to get one, I hope.

I didn't have it yet either, I requested it in May ;) But you can go to this link http://travel.state....country/NL.html and print out the 'supporting letter for Dutch VOG application' they have there. It's a more personalized letter for the Dutch gemeentes saying that the consulate requests the VOG. I did that and they accepted it!

I got my vog after 2 days. I have to request a lot in my line of work.

For the interview just to be sure. How do you pay for that? My package is at the NVC now and want to be prepared asap so there is little down time.

You will get a letter that tells you how to pay for the interview. You have to pay it ''online'' and print it out that says you paid for it and bring it with you for the interview.

Ok thanks. Also for package three with the checklist. Can I make an appointment at that doctor for medical? Or do that at a different time?

No. you need to wait for the letter that give you information about the medical exam. When I did my k1, I got that letter at the same time when I got my interview date. Then you can call them and they probably already have your information from the consulate, and then you can make an appointment with them.

Congratulations!

I just got my interview date, Oct 21st. So hopefully if all goes well I can book my early November flight :D

For those who just had the interview, when you register your date on the website that the letter in packet 4 tells you to go to. When/how did you pay for the interview? I followed all the instructions on there and I never was prompted to pay anything, I have a confirmation page that says to print that page and take it with me.

Am I just blind or confused or just clueless on how/where to pay for the visa interview? :(

February 15th - sent package to Dallas. Took a long time to get to Dallas because of weather conditions and delays.

March 3rd - NOA1.

March 5th - Received alien registration number.

August 21st- NOA2.
September 8th - NVC received package and assigned case #
September 11th - Embassy received package.
September 16th - Received Packet 3.
September 17th - Sent packet 3 back.
September 23rd - Received packet 4.
October 14th - Medical.
October 21st - Interview. - Interview approved, visa granted!

November 1st - Moving to the U.S.
