I thought emailing the embassy would be hopeless, but I actually received a response in less than 12 hours!

It's not biggie. I go there and do the interview, and once I have my waiver I send it to them. They will not deny the visa, but simply not issue it before the waiver + all other documents are in their hands.

They tend to be good at responding.

The depth, quality and details in their email responses however is a different matter entirely.

I wonder if it is an embassy policy to do one-liners. They have enough rollover in staff that it can't be the same person.

In other news, said I would never go back to Denmark, but yet here we are over 3 years later, visiting Denmark again soon. SMH.

Probably. My guess is a goal of responding within 24 hours, combined with a proverbial ****ton of liability restrictions as to what they can and can't say

Have fun in Denmark! Been back to Norway twice.

Hi! Do I need to organize anything from Sweden before I move to the US? I mean after I've recieved the visa in hand? Do I need to file any paperwork or do I take care of all the changes after I've gotten married and filed for AOS?

You need to let Skatteverket know you're moving out of the country. https://www.skatteverket.se/privat/folkbokforing/flyttautomlands.4.18e1b10334ebe8bc80001591.html

Just that? Thank you so much!!!

That's the only thing I'd say you're required to do. I also recommend bringing an extra copy of your "personbevis 120 med alla relationer" as you will need that for AOS.

[linafinn 11]

Perfect I will do that! I think I have like 3 copies of everything lol you know.. just in case

I'm sorry for asking a possibly stupid question.. I read somewhere that I'll need 7 passport photos all-in-all for the whole K-1 process and that's what's getting me confused. I used 1 photo for the i-129f package, the medical doctor tells me he needs 2 photos, the embassy tells me they need 2 photos.. so what do I need the other 2 photos for? Makes me think maybe I made up the number 7 in my head.

If you do your medical in Stockholm they want 2 at the x-ray place

Okay then at least I wasn't completely off. I'm in Halland so I'll be going to Gothenburg and they only told me to bring 2 photos. Maybe I should bring another 2 just in case, they don't take much space anyway.

I had my medical examination in Stockholm today.

All went well as I'm completely healthy. I didn't have any proof of vaccinations with me so I had to get one vaccine shot and also get my blood tested for two other things.

The doctor asks about 20 questions and does a few physical checks. Expect to take shirt and pants off! It's just to check your lungs and knee reflexes, and a few other additional things too.

Everything took about an hour in total and they know how to charge you a lot of money for it.

Concerning photos, I gave away two when getting my X-ray, three when I did my medical exam, and I will have to bring another two to the embassy for the interview. 7 in total.

How much did you pay for the medical in total with the x-ray and vaccine + bloodtest?

Also do you have to pay for everything there or can you pay by faktura?

[JBDA 3]

5700 kr in total for medical + vaccine + blood test + X-ray.

I am not sure about what payment methods they accept. I used my debit card.
