lucky FEBRUARY 2009 FILERS

[vareska 3]

So, it's about time that I send in IV packet, finally

You guys are my sanity check, so here's what I got, tell me if I missed something:

DS-230 form (part I signed only, of course)

certified copy of hubster's passport

international marriage certificate

certified marriage certificate (original by the issuing authority or whatever the hell they asked for)

certified birth certificate of hubster's

2 passport photos of hubster's

police certificate (2 different kinds, didn't wanna risk submitting the wrong one )

photocopies of everything I just mentioned

all of these certified copies also have english translations done by court interpreter/translator for english language in bosnia

hard copy of the choice of agent form (even though they accepted the email, I thought I'd give them no reason for an RFE or any delays)

bar coded cover sheet

Did I miss anything?

Thanks a bunch!

Other than that, you have everything I sent.

Any time!!!

Computer fixed!!! Guess how much it cost me???? NOTHING, NADA, ZILCH!!! They did a diagnostic run to determine if there was a hardware problem and it came up with nothing. Since I have taken it in 3 times in the last 4 months they did a more complete diagnostic which took 10 hours and found 2 bad sectors in my harddrive. Well they had replaced my hard drive just 18 months ago so they figure it was a bad drive so took it out gave me a new one and are getting a replacement from their supplier.

I just love it when God blesses me in unexpected ways!!!

I would add a cautioning note to anyone using those figures to guess at their own timeline - the last two numbers (NOA2 to Interview and Complete Process) are due to the Phiippines scheduling their interviews very quickly and are not indicative of other countries. Just wouldn't want newer people to think theirs can be that fast in another country.

Thanks for the numbers Whidbey! Glad you got your computer fixed - FOR FREE!

Also take into consideration the average for a case in the Phillipines is 153 days so she still finished nearly a month quicker (or about 18% better)!! WOO HOO!
