Hello all,

I am currently getting paperwork together for the AOS. There is one form that I am waiting for my husband to sign and mail from Tunisia. This is slowing down our process ,are we missing something or doing anything wrong? I called them and they said that our country was not eligible for electronic processing. He is sending me B3 police form and the application that is needed with the AOS. My dad will be the joint sponsor and we have everything we need to send . If anyone has any advice on how to speed up this process please let us know. I know everyone wants to get a visa as soon as possible and I know it wont be as quick as we all want, I just don't want to make any mistakes that will slow down the process even more. I miss my hubby :\. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thank you Everyone

It's quite sad for you as you zipped along so fast with all the other steps and you can't get a date now. We are all catching up. I hope you get a date soon.

Thank you Everyone

Hello! You mention that your husband is sending his B3 and I assume his DS-230. You didn't mention anything else so I just thought I would ask if he is also sending the other documents that are needed or if you already have them. Do you have his recent birth certificate, a copy of the biographic page of his passport, your marriage certificate and 2 passport photos of him and are all of your documents translated with a certification by the translator? Wishing you the best of luck with everything and feel free to contact me if you have any questions. :)

Good advice Ryan H, All one can do is be honest because if you lie and get caught you will be in a lot of trouble and a denied might be the result. Good Luck Asad Shahgood.gif
