Any guesses what that means??? APPROVED!!! Wahoooooooooooooo

Early word out of Paris... it took about two hours of waiting after the appointment time, but the actual interview only lasted a couple of minutes. His phone credit was running out, so I will update you with the details when I find them out myself. Bottom line: "you should receive your visa in 6-10 days"

Hoping ceciliaottawa and Terca can make this day even better!!!

Kimsue and Cecilia Nice guys !! :thumbs:

They gave us a green slip because the consul wanted an I-864A from my sister's husband (she is our co-sponsor). I feel so stupid not thinking it may be needed since they did their taxes together :( ... But bottom line is all we have to do is bring this document as soon as possible and drop it off with his passport so that they can print his visa.

The consul was very nice and she asked 0 questions about us. it basically went like this:

consul (in spanish): Hello, good morning

Us: Good morning

consul (to me): everything looks good, do you have your sister's W-2? I don't see her individual income on her tax transcript

Me: No, I don't. I have an employment letter that shows annual income.

Consul (to me): well in that case you guys have to come back, bring Jose's (my sisters hubby) i-864A and copy of his green card, and Lorenzo's (my hubby) Passport so that we can issue his visa. (then she gave me the green slip with visa can't be issued now and Section 221(g) checked off)

Me: Do we have to make another appointment? how soon can we bring this?

consul (smiling): not at all, as soon as you have the documents drop them off outside and pay for the courier service that will deliver lorenzo's passport.

us: ok thanks :)

So is not good news yet, but almost good news :rofl: now let's see how fast fedex really is! let's hope Tom Hanks was right lol

Sounds like the visa is in the bag once you get the I-864A in! Congrats! That's one thing about tax transcripts (I've heard)... they don't show which part of the income came from which person (thus the question about the W-2). If someone else in June is in a similar position, hopefully your story will help smile.gif

You should be getting your visa soon, so that's grounds for celebration in my book! kicking.gif

Well, as if they were going to deny your visa after you submit the i864A.... there is no possible way that can happen!! I am sending you my CONGRATS right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way, about the IRS transcripts: the Tax transcripts does not show the W2's but the 'wages transcript' does. I submited both tax and wages transcripts.... hope that helps someone!

That's a good point. I used tax returns + W-2s, 1099s, etc. so I don't know a lot about tax transcripts, but your information could be really helpful to others.

In case anyone is interested, here are the questions the CO asked Jonas:

When and where did you meet?

When were you married?

What do you do for a living?

What do you plan to do in the US?

Have you ever been to the US before?

The end. Pretty much business as usual at the Paris embassy smile.gif
