To Any One who have an answer.

So my Mom and dad's interview was back on 11.1.10. They were approved however my mom was given a Blue Slip for the Information Window. SHe's to Return with her Expired Passport that has her Current B1/B2 Visa so they can cancel it.

I'd like to know at what point do we get back out Certified/Original Documents... NVC was sent

My Mom/Dad/Brother & Wife and my Original BC

THey have my Brother and my Parent's Original Marriage Certificate

Total of 7 valued documents.. should they have received it after the interview on 11.1.10? OR will they give them back when my mom returns with her passport and then proceeds to DHL to send off both passports..?

hi ricardo4eva2,

i got my visa packet 2 days after my interview... here in the philippines i don't know if they did return my original or certified true copies... coz the only thing i can retrieve from my visa packet is my passport, which is outside the envelop but inside the plastic pouch. so i only did open the plastic pouch and got my passport... umm... because the other documents are inside the envelop and there's a warning not to open the envelop... so i have no idea what's inside it. the envelop should be open by an immigration officer at the point of entry when you arrive at USA airport.. i hope this can help you...

SUPER !!! Congrats and enjoy the caparinha what ever that is... :lol:

congrats!!!! at least you made it even w/o a med result yet... still visa approve so CONGRATS!!!!!! :thumbs:

I want an earlier date because my husband completed his medical since October 15, 2010. The NVC sent his case file on October 26, which they received in Guyana on Monday. I'm hoping to get him an earlier date before Thanksgiving.

Dear friends.

Can u Please tell me what happens during medical check-up??? what they do and what tests are performed and what shots are given? My wife is very nervous she has it on 11th november. i myself dont know anything about it. would really like to know.

any complications if she had C-section in the past?

Thanks.

VISA APPROVED :dance:

Got to the USEM at 12:00 went through security. Got a number and waited about 20 minutes got called to window 9.

The pre screen lady was awsome we have three files so mounds of paperwork was enormous. it took her about 40 minutes with us standing at the window to go through all the documents. She was very friendly and had alot of conversation with my wife.

She asked the normal questions when did you meet, how many times I had been in CR, has my wife ever been to the US. She said have a seat and we will be called, sat there about 20 minutes and got called to do the fingerprints, this took about 2 minutes to complete and the lady said please have a seat again.

We sat about 20 more minutes and got called to the window by the CO he asked my wife to swear everything is the truth and asked her to sign part 2 of the DS-230.

He looked at me and asked are you the petitioner I said yes he asked me what do I do for a living, I answered he then said you can pick up the visas tomorrow at 3pm. I was in shock he didnt ask my wife one question, didnt look at any evidence not one photo nothing.

I thought this was strange so I said "so there approved" his reply was "of course why not". I couldnt believe it not one question.

The experience was great not one problem and the people in the USEM were a pleasure. We were in and out in about 2 hours total. :dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:
