Great news Rosalinda.

I see you have filed AOS Rob&Dawn, so I added you to the UK spreadsheet

Did you send in the I-693? Were shots still needed in the US? What about TB test?

Thanks for adding me to the spreadsheet.

I sent in the I-693 that i received back from Dr Arnold, just waiting to see if they make me get the TB test. Thankfully i had all my jabs in the UK so didn't need any more.

Well, I'm not one to let the grass grow under my feet, so I'm on the case right now. Just checked the mailbox, and good old Dr Arnold has done the business - I have the completed I-693. I've just finished filling in the G-325a, and am going to get the necessary official documentation photocopied.

It's all go, I tell thee!!

Right, after a very eventful day I'm married, and have gotten together everything on the list Nich put on page 6 of this thread, except the co-sponsors I-864.

So almost ready to file! :dance:

Glad I found this thread! We filed AOS and EAD at the beginning of the month and just got our NOA1's for both in the mail this weekend. Like many others, we didn't include the I693 and just included the DS3025 from the UK medical. We also didn't have the TB test done. We're going to get the form filled out by Dr. Arnold just in case and deal with the TB stuff if it comes up, but we didn't want to delay the EAD application any further so we'll just wait and see if we get an RFE.

Quick question about income requirements. I'm a full time student with zero income, so we're using a cosponsor who makes well above the poverty guidelines. She hadn't filed her taxes yet when we mailed the packet in, so we only submitted her 2007, 2006 and 2005 tax transcripts. We didn't include W2 forms since we read they were redundant with transcripts but I'm wondering what all of you did. Did you include 2008 info? Did you use transcripts or W2/1040 forms? We did include 6 months of paystubs, so hopefully nothing comes of it.

Here's to hoping! Truth be told, we could care less about RFEs at this stage.
