Thank you to everyone who answered my question regarding the fee's.

I now have a set of another questions:

1) Does my wife need to leave her Canadian passport at the interview? (I assumes so in order for them to insert the visa into the passport)

2) This is where I am freaking out a bit: If they are keeping my wife's passport and mailing it back does that mean that we have to leave her passport in the unopened package before we do our POE? I ask because we are going to Europe in September and obviously she needs to use her passport for this trip.

Thank you.

Yes she needs to leave passport. Here is the information for your embassy (forget the packet 3 thats K1) but DHL and all that does your stuff.

And No your passport will not be in the sealed envelope.

Montreal now uses DHL to send your passport and visa back. No need to get the Xpresspost envelope that was previously required. When packet 3 arrives you will be instructed to register for DHL. You will pick the nearest location to you from a drop down menu. The waiting period varies.

I thought Montreal still uses loomis thats what we registered for on the usavisa website

Copy of new I-864 (with 2013 info) plus 2013 Tax Forms +W2s+1099s (if any) or 2013 Tax Transcript. No need to copy the check.

I have to make entirely new I-864s for me and my joint sponsor?

It consists of only changing the tax year information?

Which lines from a tax return (since transcript is not ready yet) need to be put on the income line?

Gross income from 1040. Otherwise if you submitted 1040EZ then use Adjusted Gross Income. For both you and your joint sponsor need I-864, Tax Returns, W2s, 1099s (if any), Employer's Letter, Pay Stubs etc.

New employers letter and pay stubs are needed even if they were sent with the original I-864 to the NVC and dated from 2014?

Can anyone help me ??

We have been requested an expedite for our son's case to NVC to be with me in the interview , they send to us this message :

Dear Sir/Madam:

The National Visa Center (NVC) received your inquiry regarding the immigrant visa petition: SRC×××××××

The U.S. Embassy/Consulate General has accepted this case for expedited processing. This file will be immediately forwarded to the U.S. Embassy/Consulate General. Any further questions concerning processing or the interview appointment date should be directed to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate General.

Please note that the U.S. Embassy or Consulate General may still request additional forms or fees at the time of your interview. Please be prepared to submit any missing forms and pay any required fees at the time of your interview.

We recently received your visa petition. Once we enter your information into our system, we will forward this case to the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, Egypt.3

So we emailed cairo embassy to ask about information and they answer with very weird 3 mail s

First :

on 9 JUN-2014 07:30, is the appointment date and time for your son, he has to do the medical exam with his case number, and bring it with him on the day of his interview.

Regards,

Consular Staff

Second :

Please ignore our previous email, your sons case never received to our post, once we receive it, we will notify you, it is only the mothers case.

Regards,

Consular Staff

Third :

Consular, Cairo IV would like to recall the message, "SRC×××××××××".

Anyone have any idea what is going on ?????

It is best to send them the whole package, instead of depending on them to figure out where is the rest of it. I am hoping you kept copies of everything. All they need are copies - except new I-864s with actual signatures on them. Also, a letter explaining that this is a re-submission. Make sure to write your case # on top right of the documents.

You say send, but in this case, we are bringing it to the interview. That is correct?
