Congrats Kevin!!! I was hopping to get mine before leaving but it seems like it won't happen. What is worst is that hubby has to stay here but he promised he would catch up with me as soon as he could. I'll miss him, but hopefully next time I come to the States it will be as a resident ha ha :D

danat, Remo and dvrjwh!!

Quick question for you and all others who have sent their documents. How many of you have sent both AOS and Ds-230 together in one Packet?? I sent my documents seperatly in two different packets!! Just wondering!! Thanks!!

rehan...

I also considered sending them together, but in the end I sent them both the same day in different envelopes. We didn't get an RFE and it was all approved in 9 days from the date they received them. I figured if they opened one envelope with everything and somehow mixed up the documents we could have problems. Not that they would do that… but you never know. For that reason, I played it safe and sent them separate.

Thanks for thinking of us Ani! That's the same price I get with Skype. Also with phone cards you have no record of the number so Skype works better for documentation of relationship.

You do get a call record with this card, because when you sign up and create an account online, you have a call history after for every call made with the time and duration. At least I did :thumbs:

Now we use skype with my husband, but some people don't have computers at the moment, or they don't have a skype account yet... anyway, I agree skype is better - after all it's free :)

Would I leave Question 25 blank (i864)? or just unchecked and enter the Salaries for the last 3 years as I have yet to file?

Yes, leave it unchecked and do not enter the your salaries at all.

You can write a note on the border or next to the question that you have provided additional information on a separate sheet of paper.
