Darnell, you are not the only one that has been trying... sometimes you just gotta give up trying to help and put the energy on someone who appreciates it!

Yes, Darnell is is arrogant, with a touch of conceitedness thrown in. He's straight forward and to the point, he doesn't sugar coat it, to the point that it's sometimes rude. Sometimes that's what peo

I can't help but think of an episode of Friends when Rachel was thinking of inducing labor when she was like a week overdue. I remember something about eating spicy food.

He only needs military records if he was in the military. And he still needs a police certificate, whether he was in the military or not. Have you read the first post? It contains links to guides and a FAQ that covers what is needed in the IV package.

Yes, I remember that too but thought not to mention it laughing.gif

And I'm a Friends fanatic as well :D

Oh my! Good luck! I'm going to bed now and hope to see in the morning good news of your new baby :)

Hi All,

My I-130 for spouse got approved on april 27

I filed a tax return for 2011 Married filed jointly and applied for ITIN for spouse

Attached a photocopy of her passport with W-7 (identification documents)

but I got a letter asking for passport/identification documents be notarized by US notary ?

Any body with such experience with spouse in India whose immigration petition is pending

How did you all file your tax returns after marriage with the spouse abroad? Single/Married filing joint/Married filing single

If any of you applied for ITIN for spouse when Married filing joint, what did you attach as Identification document with the W-7?

If I get her original passport in the mail and get it notarized here. will that suffice or should I amend the tax return and file Married filing single???

Please please advice...

Thank you.

This is probably a long shot, but wondering if anyone else has any experience with this...

There is no Direct Consular Filing in Australia anymore, but the Sydney consulate has agreed to process our file in Sydney because of extenuating circumstances for us. We had already been approved at the USCIS when this happened, so they contacted the NVC to have our file transferred to Australia once it arrived.

Sydney Consulate seemed to indicate that once NVC received the file they would send it straight to Sydney. They had sent me a copy of the packet 3 instructions so I could prepare everything so it was all ready to go once our package was sent back. I rang the NVC on Friday and finally got a case number, but the person told me there were still two fees to pay and forms to fill in, I assume the ds3032 and the AOS and IV fees. We sent off the DS3032 via email as per the FAQ and figured once we sorted these out we'd be on our way.

I rang back tonight to see if I could get my invoice identification number and query about when it might be sent to Sydney, but the person I spoke to started talking about the NVC sending me packet 3 instructions, and had no notes on my file being expedited via Sydney. They told me to email the NVCInquiry email re: being expedited, which I did, and then I emailed Sydney to see if I can find out what's going on. The person also told me that SYDNEY would handle the payments if they were processing my file, so I'm getting crossed signals from everyone.

I don't suppose anyone on this board might have a clue as to what actually should be happening at this point in the process for me? Or do I just have to hold on and see what I get sent back via email? The waiting game is killing me!

Thanks for reading and any help you can offer.

I have a question about the police clearance, not sure if any of you have been in this situation? I got my police clearance in March, it expires June 6th. Most likely before I will have my interview date. Do you think I should be on the safe side and request another one that won't expire for another 3 months? In Russia it takes 3weeks to a month to get this certificate .. Any help would be appreciated!
