Hi everyone:

Great News I just got! Interview date has been set! OCT 11 12:30PM! Thank for the people here who help me in this thread! Special thanks for Darnell!

Few more questions! HAHA QUESTIONS BOY!

Should I have to be in guangzhou stay with my wife during interview?

Is my wife going to receive an actual package about prepare interview in guangzhou?

Any threads Link about how to prepare a good interview ?

If I dont go back, I cant give her the I-864 form ( coz I did I-864 FROM EP in My side, she didnt have the orignal I-864 form), then Do I have to mail her I-864 form if I dont go back with her interview?!

Thank you guys!

Wish people who are still waiting for approved all the best!

That's good news! However, that October 11 date is the date of document intake, the interview itself will occur the following day (October 12).

Should I have to be in guangzhou stay with my wife during interview?

It's not a requirement for you to be there, however, if you can go, then go.

If I dont go back, I cant give her the I-864 form ( coz I did I-864 FROM EP in My side, she didnt have the orignal I-864 form), then Do I have to mail her I-864 form if I dont go back with her interview?!

If you are unable to go, then mail her that package so she receives it in plenty of time.

That's actually the interview letter. He received the case complete email awhile ago. It's worded very differently. Go back a bit and you can read it for yourself.

Hi Everyone:

Another question! Haha

I heard the security guard only collect the "official appointment letter" from the Entrance of the Embassy in Guangzhou, since we are doing Ep

How we can show them the Original Letter? Does the security Guard know about EP? Because we can only print out the Appointment letter which is not "orignal"!

Thank you guys!

appointment letter is 'that email'.

don't bring a computer, instead, simply have yer wife PRINT OUT the appointment letter with a printer somewhere, to paper.

She then brings the paper to the IV Unit, the guard knows the difference between 'official postal letter' and 'printed email', you betcha.

Good Luck!

wei - update yer timeline again, xie xie ni !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
