Here we go!!!

After waiting all this time... The suspense is building, it's almost too much to handle hahah.

If we expect NOA2 in June should the fiancee begin getting medical exam and shots, police report now ASAP?

This would enable slingshot return of Packet 3 and schedule interview sooner, if I'm not mistaken.

Good luck to everyone. Bless!

Thank you! I feel a little like a keystone or something. Once mine gets done it should be a signal that the others are on their way or have been done.

Also, we started buying things for the house (it's our... form of progress, seeing something happening at least. We have decided we're going to take our frustrations out on people by having this as a doormat

We have almost all the paperwork ready except the co-sponsor's stuff, and we just scheduled the medical exam for Tuesday morning. I would think the earlier you get everything done the better, as long as you make sure it won't expire before your interview.

I am with Sabi. We have all of that DONE! When they send him packet 3 he is sending it back the very next day... but that is Ireland. I think you would likely be able to get the police certs now, but they make you wait to have your case number for the medical. You will have to check your country's regs.

woooo look who's alive! Glad you're hanging in there Mel!

yes agreed, in Ireland you don't need a case number to have your medical done but it depends on a country :)

Fiance is sending me his pay stubs and a letter from his employer as soon as we get NOA2. Everything else I have ready to be sent the same/next day :)
