August 2014 Interviews

[Deep35472 130]

Best wishes for your upcoming interview.

Thanks

okay so serious question about us before interview..

We filed tax return as Married Filling joint without my wife SSN or ITIN number.

we didn't file ITIN number coz it was too late for us now.. And IRS already accepted Tax return.

So if they ask question about my AOS what should my wife tell them at Interview?

Question might be like this,

" why you don't have ITIN number in your join tax return?"

OR

How you file Join Tax return without ITIN number ?

Answer either of those truthfully...

1. We did not know about the ITIN, and just filed the return, and the IRS accepted it!

2. We did not know about the ITIN, and just filed the return, and the IRS accepted it!

I don't think you'll get that question, but have her get very big innocent eyes and shake her head!

Is the below message the thing you are supposed to print out and show to CBP at your POE? I'm a little confused about what to show that proves the $165 Immigrant Fee has been paid.....

Your payment has been submitted to Pay.gov and the details are below. If you have any questions or you wish to cancel this payment, please contact National Customer Service Center at 1-800-375-5283.

Application Name: Integrated Operating Environment Pay.gov Tracking ID: 25GG39BP Agency Tracking ID: 1217929102434624A3 Transaction Type: Sale Transaction Date: Jul 2, 2014 8:13:38 PM

Account Holder Name: Sukie

Transaction Amount: $165.00

Billing Address: 750 Any Street

City: Ancram

State/Province: YY

Zip/Postal Code: 99999

Country: USA

Card Type: AmericanExpress

Card Number: ************9999

THIS IS AN AUTOMATED MESSAGE. PLEASE DO NOT REPLY.

I would keep that piece of paper on me at POE (it is proof enough), but I thought paying this fee is not mandatory prior to POE. Don't forget to mention politely that you elected to get a Social Security Card while the officer is clicking away at his/her monitor.

MoBar65 - it is not mandatory to have paid the immigrant fee by the time you arrive at the POE. However, your physical Green Card will NOT be generated until the fee is received (and you have entered the US). Most people I know want to have that little card in their hot little hands rather than rely on the stamp in the passport, and they want it as soon as possible!

Then while politely reminding the officer about the Social Security Number, one can also whip out the immigrant fee receipt to prove that the physical Green Card process can start!

So my wife is currently at the interview. In fact if i'm lucky by now she may have passed or is readily waiting for her turn.
I feel calm, I guess because I really can't do anything any more than to just wait for the hopefully good news. But still definitely won't go to sleep until she writes to me
Hopefully I can update with good news in an hour or so

You should distinguish between American Express and Federal Express or they'll take the visa back from you!!!! (Please ignore if there is an actual courier service in Pakistan called American Express)

Really happy for your smooth interview, considering your messed up neighborhood.

VISA APPROVED!!!

She just msgd me and I called her, she said interview was like 5 min long and they didnt see anything of extra evidence. I'll write visa review after I get full details. They did check the original documents since we didnt send originals of marriage certificate and birht certificate (russia only needs copy as long as u take original to interview since you cant get more than 1 original copy...russians )

Finally, I can rest from that vigil...

What a rush it must've been to both of you. Enjoy a well deserved moment.
