Would also like to add that it's even cheaper for us to fly down there RT.. Such as $203 from FLL to Pereira and Medellin RT, and $364 for NYC to Bogota RT, and $434 from NYC to Cali RT.

thats great deals! thanks Kevin for letting us know :)

Hi guys, I have a couple questions. I've been calling to do a DCF, but the line to set up an appointment is always busy. Also for anyone that has done a DCF, do I have to go with my wife, or can I file the petition alone and then come with her to the interview?

300 dollars is very expensive. Carol went to Dr. Roa and I believe the vaccines were 220 mil pesos, which is about 120 dollars. Call the doctor's office in Bogota and ask them how much the vaccines will cost. Dr. Roa told Carol the cost when she scheduled the apointment.

Yes my boyfriend called the doctor he made an appoinment with doctor Gonzales. and when he called to ask her how much and which vaccines he needed she told him they can't give him that information without seeing him. so we are just going to wait and have him get the vaccines with the embassy doctor i am sure they won't be that much money. thanks so much! :)

Hello all!

I have a quick question about the DS156 form we have to use to pay the visa. My lawyer is mailing me all the documents tomorrow which that form is also in there, can i scan and email it to my boyfriend so he can go pay the visa or do i have to send him the orginal copy? i just feel like if i mail it, he wont recieve the package in enough time for him to go to the bank and pay for the visa.... :help:

ps. i asked my lawyer if i could just scan and email the form to him but she said no that he needs the orginal but i dont see why since that form doesn't have any signatures or anything yet.

Scanning the form could have shades at the moment of printing it being evident that it is not original. He can fill out online and print it.

Pretty sure you can ship it through USPS 3-5 day international envelope.. Costs about 27 or 28 dollars. There's also a 1-3 day service but expect to pay around 60... Good luck!
