Yes i am calling DOS and NVC both but I've found that calling DOS is much faster compare to NVC and they have same information. DOS is telling me that NVC is waiting for interview dates from Islamabad embassy.

Hey guys, I just received my tax return transcript for 2011 yesterday for the hubby to take to his interview. Can I scan it and send or does he need to have the original paper with him? There's no seals or signatures so I'm thinking a scan would be fine.

Scans of tax transcripts are fine, there's nothing differentiating a scan of it from the original that the IRS sent you.

[Saylin 1,605]

Oh, yes, my favorite Ring of Power! I have a tiny crush on Lord Elrond

Thanks for the welcome and the info, Saylin. I hope you're right about the timeframe--that would be great!

Speaking of which, I wonder if anyone has any input on one matter which is causing us a bit of consternation. Our second anniversary will be at the end of January, 2013. If we have his interview sometime around Septemberish, I am thinking that we might be better off waiting 'til our anniversary has passed before he travels to the US. The downside is, of course, we both want him here ASAP (holiday plans, etc.) and like everyone else, we're tired of waiting! Is holding off a few months worth bypassing the whole 2 year green card and adjustment of status stuff? I feel like it is, just so he can have that ten year card in hand, but I don't know if I can manage to wait to get him here. Argh! We just can't decide.

OK, back to Middle-Earth, it's the Spring Festival in LotRO

I Lord of the Rings!

For your question, it's up to you. If your interview is in September, then that's like another 4 months for your 2 year anniversary. Can you two handle that? Keep in mind, ROC is currently $590. The question is, is $600 worth waiting an extra 4 months or so?

A scan will be alright. Since there are no seals or signatures or anything, the consulate/embassy would never know it's a photocopy.

It's been taking around a week or so for NVC to review packages. Yes, call them, you should be doing this every single day to stay as up to date as possible on your case.

Since it's asking for the entire IV package, this is most likely a "false checklist". This is generated when the AOS package is reviewed and accepted. Call up NVC and confirm that your AOS package has been accepted.

PS. Please refer back to post 2 as this question has been answered already there.
