Do each of us need to write a letter of intent or can we simply sign the same letter written? Thanks in advance.

My fiance & I signed and dated individual letters, we got no RFE.

The Guide on here provides an example of the Intent to Marry Letter.

Each of you need to write a letter.

I used the EXACT template shown here: http://www.visajourney.com/content/examples

sent NVCInquiry@state.gov an e-mail on Tuesday and got a reply tonight saying:

"The National Visa Center (NVC) received your inquiry regarding the immigrant visa petition: TNSxxxxxxxxxx filed by JESSICA on behalf of MOHAMED. The NVC completed its processing of this visa petition, and forwarded it to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in TUNIS TUNISIA."

Sorry, I took too long to edit my post, but I figured out how to check my case status (https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx)

It says its Ready.......

"Your case is ready for your interview when scheduled at the U.S. Consular section. If you have already scheduled an appointment for an interview, please prepare your documents as directed in your appointment letter and appear at the consulate on the appointed date and time. Otherwise, please wait until you have been notified of your interview appointment. Additional information about how Immigrant Visa interview appointments are scheduled can be found at: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3731.html "

Congrats! We got that also and I talked to the agent and they said they sent it our file electronically on 12/5 and that the consulate received it already. Don't they send the physical copy also? Well either way we are ready to schedule are interview. So excited as we are getting close to being together.

I thought they must have sent it electronically.

No way they could have got it so fast in the snail mail!

Now I have to figure out how they schedule interviews. It seems in Rio they do it for us. That would suck as I really want ours to be end of February or Mid-March as we will see each other later this month and I won't have any days to go see her for the interview. We might have to cancel seeing each other during the Christmas time and just see each other during our trip to Rio. Wow so confusing!

Wow congrats! I'm guessing scheduling your interview that fast is specific to your country? I don't remember reading people doing this for the US Consulate in Brazil. So NVC sent out your packet the next day? Where did you find that out?

Here in PI once you got your case number from nvc you can schedule your own interview date by just paying the interview fee..and we can download the packet from the us embassy manila site.. those are just instructions of what to bring and what to do next.. so i paid already my interview fee and got my schedule :) how about yours?

unfortunately the USA consulate in Brazil gives us the date. We can ask to reschedule but we have no control of what new date they give us. Kind of sucks but at least our case is moving forward.
