June 2010 interview

[yohino 22]

Nothing here either!

Very very annoying.

Planning on going up to the Social Security office on friday, hopefully they'll be able to do something, eventhough I won't have (most likely) recieved my welcome letter by then.

What do you guys think? It should still be doable right? If I have my passport w/visa w/admission stamp. Should I bring something else?I have a second ID aswell.

VFS document submission Question -

If we submit original passport to VFS.

We should have some other picture ID with us to enter embassy.

Are they going to allow entry (without passport)?

[Nj328 2]

Hi guys, how long the greencard & social sec. will arrive?

[mrs. wife! 3]

Johanna, you should be fine with the docts you have.

I would bring a the NOA2 that shows the Alien number, just in case they dont accept the 'registration number' on the visa (its the same though).

Let me know how it went. Good luck hon!

[LoveRaja 0]

Congratulations to all of the great news!

Rani and Raja, just one slight hiccup which can be taken care of easily. No worries.

Ladies... be sure to let us known when you get your GC/SSC in the mail. Or whatever you have to do to get them. 'Cause we sure as heck don't have any experience with this.

Dear TheBears,thank you so much for message.I can just say hopefully will be as you and others said. What about you.? When your huby going to come? Happiness forever with your loved one cute!

RE; Welcome Letter & anything else we are suppose to receive.

Since some of us changed our address with the post office (did you?) since we moved into our new place after arriving, do you think that will cause a problem w/receiving the paperwork?

For those about to POE -- make sure you ask the IO if you've been updated in the SAVE system when crossing over.

Confused about that statement. Should my hubby asked something at POE?

Should my hubby have something already that has his future GC Alien number on it? I never did look at his stamp that he got at POE.

You do not submit your passport to VFS. You will need it for the interview and will not be granted admission otherwise. VFS wants a photocopy of every page of your passport and will put a little sticker at the back of your passport after you've paid the DHL fees.

1. I changed my address at POE and filed a AR-11 online. If you've moved you should definitely file the AR-11.

2. Apparently. I didn't know about this till last week when someone else mentioned it.

3. The A# is on his visa as REGISTRATION NUMBER and also on the NOA2.

Tha A-number is on the NOA2 and in the visa. I also have it hand-written on my admisson stamp.

If your adress has changed from the one that's in your "USCIS-file" you have to have the immigrant (hubby) fill out an AR-11, can be done online, and the sponsor (you) need to send in an I-865.

1.I better hurry & fill out that AR-11 again but yet, I have a problem. We are going to move into a new apartment # soon. Should I maybe put down my work address/

2. So what is that? And the fact that we didn't ask, will we have a probleam/

3. I guess I should take a look at his paperwork.

Really?! I need to include the I-865?

[yohino 22]

From what I'v read, yes. It's to change the sponsors adress, the AR-11 is only for the immigrant.

It can't be done online either, has to be mailed in to the appropriate USCIS-office, depends on where you live.

Or am I wrong? Someone else who knows?

Sachi, did you guys include the I-865 when changing the address?

[TatyanaR 6]

Or am I wrong? Someone else who knows?

Also the form says to mail to London, KY. Is that wrong or?

[mrs. wife! 3]

I didn't know the sponsor has to file for change of address either, since he is a USC?????

I did the AR-11 and requested USPS to forward mail to my new place as well - I know USCIC don't forward mail, but I already changed it online....

Can someone confirm about the I-865?

[yohino 22]

The way I understand it the sponsoring USC has to fill out and send the I865 as long as the I-864 is in play.

Tat, which state do you live in?

To report a sponsor's new address and/or residence, as required by 8 U.S.C. 1183a(d)

(d) Notification of change of address

(1) General requirement

The sponsor shall notify the Attorney General and the State in

which the sponsored alien is currently a resident within 30 days

of any change of address of the sponsor during the period in

which an affidavit of support is enforceable.
