Hi all,

Today we got an email for the K1 interview at the embassy in Stockholm. Thing is, that the interview is very close to Christmas, and I have already booked a trip to see my fiance to celebrate my 40th birthday, spend Christmas together, and what not. Does anyone have any experience when it comes to requesting a different date for the interview? Everything has gone very smooth for us so I would hate to see anything interfering with things now, but seeing as I've already paid for the ticket to go to the US I would definately want to postpone the interview... if possible.

Hi. Wow, i looked at your timeline and i have a question, how come nvc recieved 26 and you already have an interview today? Is your timeline really correct??

Why not pay a little extra and delay your flight, cause i dont know if u can get a new interview that quick. I wont get to celebrate either my fiances bday nor xmas or new years, but i know once i have the visa, i will get to spend each and every one of them after

We actually got to email them to schedule us and they seemed to have been pretty flexible with times/dates. I think if you email there is a fair chance they will be able to move the appointment.

Hi,

That doesn't look right... We have this profile shared, and I'm assuming my fiance updated it as NVC recieved today, no idea why it says 26. Weird!

I think I'll email and ask, saying that in case it's not possible I'd like to keep the interview date. I don't mind waiting a little though, since I will be having a lot to take care of before actually moving to the US - but if I have to wait months for a new interview date it's definately a problem...

That sounds promising, I'll email and see what they say.

Sorry, NVC was recieved 21 Nov, my fiance updated it incorrectly... then email today about the interview. So, very quick, but not on the same day.

I'm not sure why you'd be jealous, your case has moved extremely fast compared to how it was a year ago.

Let's hope it goes fast for all of us!

Now, about the actual interview... I'm supposed to bring a birth certificate - födelsebevis. Thing is, that we don't use this in Sweden - we only use extracts from the population register which is handled by the Swedish Tax Authority. So, I have no idea what to bring, since they ask for both a birth certificate, and an extract from the population register. Is there anyone who has done the interview here - what did you bring?

Jag tar det på svenska! Ring bara skatteverket och be om ett födelsebevis för visum till Usa, det gjorde jag. jag fick det bara inom några dagar. Det står var du ör folkbokförd, föräldrar, osv.

Glöm inte ett utdrag från brottsregistert, för det kan ta tid!! Jag beställde mitt för mer än 2 veckor sedan, har inte fått det än! Du måste betala avgiften innan. Lycka till

Grejen är ju att de frågar efter BÅDE födelsebevis och personbevis, så jag vet inte vad de är ute efter... jag gissar på att de har en mall för visum som de skickar ut till alla oavsett vilket land man kommer ifrån. I USA är det ju vanligt att använda födelsebevis, så det är väl där det kommer ifrån...

Obs alltså att Skatteverket inte har några födelsebevis, utan det är personbevis man får därifrån... och enligt instruktionerna i mailet ska man alltså ta med både födelsebevis och personbevis.

Just got a reply from the embassy, and it was no problem rescheduling the interview. Got a new appointment in mid January.

Ja men det är allt i ett, där står car du är folkbokförd, var du föddes,civil status, dina föräldrar osv. Det är vad man får! Ring och prata med de, det gjorde jag och de visste exakt vad jag behövde. Skönt att du fick bokat om din tid

Japp, jag vet... har jobbat på Skatteverket med just detta. men, de frågar ju ändå efter ett födelsebevis...

Ingen som gjort intervjuen och vet att personbevis funkar?
