hi perriteyl, homer4all, ekto and all !

perriteyl - waiting for interview date? :D Did you receive your medical appointment yet?

homer4all and ekto - yes, I am waiting for my IV fee bill status to be shown as "paid" then I will be able to send my DS-230 including all required documents.

I wonder how's Khanl doing with his case? I wish him for case complete soon, if he hasn't received it yet !

Hi everyone! I'm waiting for my case to be completed too. I paid my IV fee last friday and still waiting for the status

to be shown as paid.

I have a question, does my 4 yrs old step daughter need to submit DS230 too?

Thanks

Doesn't canadian citizen get T1 visa for USA? I heard if she can find an employer who wish to give her a job she can get T1 visa quickly. I don't know how true is that.

T1 Visa's are very hard to get nowadays because of the job crisis in USA. I was wondering if this F2A is actually approved within months or a year... if the Bulletin board is correct then it sounds the best option. However, she can come stay here for 6 months. I was wondering if I had to go for another 6 months to Canada with my PR Green card.

I was wondering if I could apply for dual citizenship in Canada while my Green card is in process in USA... and I travel back and forth until she is accepted.

Just an idea.. let me know if you have any ideas.

Thanks

thanks ekto and homer! good luck on your cases too..im hoping you dont get RFEs

@Hamsaya, yep you can take the f2a route.you might also wanna take a look at malvika's suggestion above

Did you apply for fiance ? how long did it take total thus far, and where are you in process ... apporx, how many months to go until your beneficiary is here?

Hello Dear Friends homer4all, perriteyl, khanl and all

How've you guys been doing?

khan, I think It should be couples of weeks for case complete after they received your RFE.

Perriteyl, did you get your interview date or medical appointment yet?

homer4all, where do you stand in your journey?

I am done with sending my AOS and IV packet to NVC and waiting for SIF and case complete now. Praying for December interview biggrin.gif

hi malvika, im still waiting for the interview appt letter and havent done medical yet. regarding SIF, I can still sign-in even though Im case complete.

Khanl, my brother-in-law got an RFE too. the AVR still says the same thing (theyve received the response to rfe) but when they called NVC, operator said that his case has been completed. so maybe they just didnt update the AVR.

goodluck all!

Hi Malvika and all..

I called NVC

AVR mentioned: RFE sent on 8th Nov.

so I talked with operator to get more details on RFE..

Operator only said they are waiting for immigration form from me(beneficiary), I told her it has already reached NVC 10 days back then she said you have to wait till your mail arrives to this building since we have a huge backlog of mails....

so now waiting for RFE if it was sent or new update on AVR regarding my ds-230 form..

Anybody with similar RFE scenario??

cheers,
