NVC Filers - April 2012

[Saylin 1,605]

Nice! Lollipops are awesome - the sushi restaurant near here has "mystery" (aka cream soda) flavor. What flavor did they give you?

LOL...they make clip on earrings you know?

Tattoos aren't bad! I have 3 and trav has one. Worse comes to worse, get a SUPER TINY one at first and work your way up

I think it was a green lollipop. I never actually ended up eating it I might still have it somewhere

And haha, clip on earrings. I actually have magnetic ones in some box, but after a few minutes, they really start to hurt.

Yeah, my husband always tells me tattoos aren't bad, but he's got a different level of pain tolerance than I do. And if I ever do go for one, I was planning on starting with a tiny one, of a red maple leaf

I just said to my husband sign here.

I let my husband do the DS-260 + evidence on his own...with my close supervision over gchat. But other than that, I just asked him (3 times) to print the DHL confirmation page and the interview letter to get into the consulate...and where was he the night that I arrived in Montreal, the night before the interview? Oh right, running to his friends' apartment to print the DHL confirmation page.

I know I've told that story before but my mind still boggles..

Yuck! LOL. It's the crusty immigration lolly Magnetic earrings?! Going to go google those...and that's a really good idea for a tattoo! I heard of someone once getting a tiny potato. Didn't understand that one but hey, it's your body...

[sheeshkabelle 153]

Sounds familiar I told my husband what he needed to scan and sign for the AOS package, then told him to send it all to me. I then digitally added the case numbers, put it in order, and emailed it off

Pretty much what I did lol. Sign here, here, here. I knew his life history I didn't need to ask questions!

When I mailed off our I-130 I was in Calgary. I could have DCFed it, it was just shy of the cut off. But I was abandoning my PR application in Canada, I wanted to go home. So I sent it to Chicago lockbox. Knowing what I know now, I should have DCFed it. Or left my address on the forms as Calgary!

They aren't bad. They don't tickle, but it's not that bad. After about a minute, you're used to the gun and you are kind of desensitized to it. Of course it also depends on where you get the tattoo.. some places are more sensitive than others.

I know thank you Saylin. Are you saying it happens sometimes that nvc do not resquest supporting document when u ask got an expedite

Yeah, I prefer red lollipops But they had none So I graciously accepted a green one

And if you go to Google images, and just put in "magnetic earrings", you'll find a bunch of results. It's simply a front piece with a magnet and then a back piece with a magnet, and you put your ear (or other body part) in between, and they're magnetized to each other, thus staying on the body part.

A potato? Yeah, I'd prefer a maple leaf. Proud to be Canadian and all

[alizon 77]

Wooooow

At least he had saved it, like I told him to. Could have been worse!

That's what my husband says, and what I've heard others say, but I can't imagine how like a billion needles are entering your skin at like a billion times a second just doesn't hurt. I feel woozy just thinking about it

And yeah, I've heard it hurts more in certain places than others. I have no idea where I want my maple leaf though as of now...

I'm sure there have been cases where no evidence was required (or sent in). But, I never requested an expedite, sooo.

Very true

That's so funny.

I've done everything but that's no big deal he works, I don't. The only thing I've asked him to do is the 2011 US taxes in case we are asked for them at interview and I have been informed that they are now completed and because I am such a nice wife I've asked him to photocopy them and all the attachments.

LOL graciously accepted, and promptly stored with the medical exam x-rays, said green lolly As for the Canadian bit...I found a bib for when/if we have kids. It's red, and in white letters, it says "Lil Canuck" (The other one I found is black and says "EAT BRAINS!" in green letters, so... )

Yeah, back when I was in Canada for this process, I had no job, wasn't in school, had no friends to hang out with, so my entire day was happily spent on VJ. Compared to my husband who was working full-time.

And yay for the taxes being completed!

And I prefer the Canadian bib, most definitely

Totally something my husband would do. That is why besides supplying money he hasn't done anything in this process. That and besides the fact he doesn't speak English.
