poutine or curry laksa - I have hard decisions each week.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Look at the very first post in this thread, there are a bunch of useful links, among them a template and explanations about how to email the DS3032, it works wonders. Refer to "LingChe shortcuts" too

No, it's printed on her checks. Just google "routing number" and look at the image results and it'll show you which number is her account number and which is the bank's routing number.

I think they'll be able to understand that after his birthday passes, your husband's gonna get 1 year older :lol:

I wouldn't worry about that.

As for the pcc question, I have an allergy to pccs from abroad these days, but I think that to be on the safe side, he should do everything he can to get it. You don't want to get stuck because they insist it's needed according to the info you provided in some forms.

October2011 - Trip Seven... Beijing and the Great Wall :)

January2012 - Trip Eight... Chinese New Years and Spring Festival! More Lucky Money! :D

April2012 - Trip Nine... Interview?

Paper work for CR1:

28 July 2011 - 20January 2012 - Day 175... USCIS at CSC finally processed our paper work.

6February2012 - NVC GUZ case number assigned - Attempted to OPTIN to EP.

7February2012 - NVC GZO (EP) case number assigned

8February2012 - 27February Massive delay caused by sending the EP OPTIN email too soon :(

Yes, if the IV bill isn't invoiced yet, then the DS-3032 hasn't been accepted yet.
