Same here, let's hope for better news!

I have another question, for maybe someone that went through the same, my husband didn't file taxes for 2013 he had no income as a full time student. For NVC was enough a written letter as to why he didn't file and he also sent them proof of school enrollment. But I read that someone was put on ap at the interview because they still wanted a tax return even if the income was 0.

Does anybody ever heard or experienced this??

My husband was actually in the same case! Full time student so he wasn't required to file taxes. The only difference is that he was filed as a dependent on his father's taxes. Don't know if it changes anything. But they didnt ask for anything at the interview. Because I heard about the poor couple who went through AP for this we did prepare a copy of the IRS website stating that he didn't have to file taxes. Hope this helps!

Dear MoBar65 & Sukie,

Thank you both so very much for such speedie and very informative replies. It helps relieve some of the stress level.

My husband received a 12-hour permission, no problem, from the Israelis, to travel to East Jerusalem. So, now, all our faith is in God, that he will make it safely in and out of East Jersusalem, on the day of the interview.

(My apologies for making a new reply, Everytime I try to reply via MultiQuote, my phone screen keeps going black and resetting to the main screen. )

You and your husband will be in my thoughts. May he have a safe journey and positive result :-)

Yes, I imagine that every case is based on its own merit, depending on the "whole" package things may be different, but I "believe" a written explanation, notarized along with a copy of the appropriate year IRS TAX GUIDE showing the minimum income requirements to generate an income tax return will document the situation-- my income was below the requirement in 2011 and that is what I was advised. we will see on the 6th!!

It's reading post like this that give me pause and realize how blessed we are as Americans and should be so grateful.

I mean people complain about not having their documents, the right clothes, the heat, having to stand, sit to long on interview day and here we have someone who is literally risking their life in order to be with the one they love.

May Gods' grace and protection cover your family on this blessed day and surround you always.

Blessings on you and especially on your husband as he makes his way to East Jerusalem and back. As others have said, your circumstances make all of our complaints pale in comparison. Please let us know when he is safely back home.

Hi...My husband's medical is on 30th...what all documents did he need for his medical..I believe it's just pictures and interview letter but want to confirm. Also, when did they give him the results..they told my husband that he can request the doctor to give it the next day because he is travelling to Mumbai from else where and doesn't want to wait 3-4 days for the medical results and they don't hand it over to anyone else. His interview is also on the 14th...!!! Fingerprinting he is getting done on the 31st

Hello, hubby took interview letter, passport, 2x2 photos. They gave him the sealed envelope with the result on the same day to take it to the interview. His fingerprinting is on the 11th and interview on the 14th.. Good luck!!

bdrew612, dwheels76 & Sukie,

Thank you so very much!! Your kind and sincere comments had me crying.

I will definitely let you all know when he returns. The interview is Thursday, August 7th. I hope it will all be completed before I have to leave for work. Once he gets back into the West Bank, he can call me and let me know. (That is one of the difficult parts; his cell phone service will not work while in Jerusalem.)

He and I are worried about different things. He is not worried, at all, about the traveling, (tough guy); I am so VERY worried about it. He is so very nervous about the interview; I think there will no worries on that portion.

Thank you again. I will keep you all posted.

(And, yes, I jumped on the computer this time. So, I could thank you properly, with the MultiQuote.)
