Woke up this morning to find emails on the iphone from NVC with 0045 timestamps. Nearly tripped over my feet getting to the computer - didn't even want to try to read them on that tiny screen. After case completion at NVC on 28 Sep, interview date is 11 Oct. We're reasonably pleased since we had two RFEs at NVC, each resolved in about a week, including one sent by registered mail from Ukraine. Speaking of which, the USPS system did show the date & time the letter arrived at NVC from Ukraine. Rather anticlimactic for tracking, but does show proof something arrived. Overall, the process seems to be moving on schedule, if not early. I presume the 0045 timestamps are due to an automated system since I don't expect anyone to be working cases or machines that time of the night. No plaudits necessary, just posting FYI for those in the Ukrainian boat. Cheers.

Oops, case completed 28 Aug. Sorry about that. Early onset Alzheimer's? I'd called NVC on 31 Aug and they told me it was completed and transmitted the 28th, sent out the next day to the embassy, and to wait for them (NVC) to contact me with the appointment date. I didn't see any need to bother them further or the embassy to find out when the package arrived in Kyiv, so I've left them alone since then. I did learn a guy on another forum got a notice about the same time; their appointment is the following week. Time to buy some tickets.

Medical exams (and whatever the agency is charging now) and vaccines (much cheaper done there!). Fees for the visas, they were $350 each person last year.

Papers? Go to the guides on here to get the list. You need evidence of bonafide relationship. Also the I-864 which basically is you showing proof you have the means to support a wife and son. That will require tax returns, pay stubs, bank account statements, etc. Again, go to the guides on here.
