I didn't book the plane either, I bring my cat and it's not easy because I will have one stop and some companies don't allow animals! lol

Anyway, we are really close =D

Thank youuuuuuu!!!! I knooowww!!! It's insane haha

I totally feel you lol mine's in a month and I'm already panicking lol

Good luck to both of you guys, you'll have to tell us how everything went

PS: for flights, I'm gonna book mine with Norwegian Air! If leaving from Paris and going to the "bigger" destinations in the US (NYC, LA, Miami, even Boston and Oakland) they are REALLY cheap! Something to consider

[angie33 10]

I'm trying to find a flight for my cat but that's just impossible!

The bag is too big, or they don't take animals or always something =(!!!

I'm lost, I didn't think it would be so hard!

[frfrog 5]

sonia, i went to look on norwegian air....prices are unbelievable!!! but ive read some really bad feedback....so i dont know now if its a good option.....

angie33, awww im sorry its such a pain to find compagny for you and your cat, i also have a chihuahua, but had no other option than leave him to a close friend :-( and so i have time to figure out something for him to come over

[angie33 10]

So I found something like

Paris - Washington DC and then Portland

But I was wondering if it would be a problem for the visa because they will want to check probably in DC but they will want the close enveloppe in Portland too! So I don't know! and I think more we will wait and less we will have a place for my cat lol

They check the closed enveloppe and your visa at the airport where you arrived on the US soil. So it would be Washington DC. They shouldn't check all of these again in Portland since you'll be coming from an intern flight.

Hey guys!

Just submitted the form DS-160 and wanted to pay the fee... but my card was refused! Tried several times: same problem again Tried with a card of a friend: still the same problem

I think I'll have to make a bank transfer tomorrow morning, which of course takes time (since they need to have the funds confirmed on their account before letting me schedule the interview). I don't think I'll be able to schedule it before next week now because of that. Anyone else had problems to pay the fee?

Thanks!

It was the same for me, but it took 1 day really to get the confirmation for the payment! So you should be able to book tomorrow maybe!

Ohhhh thank you Angie, it's really reassuring!! Hopefully I'll be able to schedule the interview tomorrow! Fingers crossed! Thank you for your answer

[TheLujums 21]

I'm sorry that for all you guys with the payment issues! This should be straight forward but this process is full of hoops. I can't believe our appointment is next Wednesday.
