August 2014 Interviews

[ArthurandMarcela 249]

Yayyyy.. Did you give a reason for why you wanted it earlier?

Originally I got an Interview schedule by NVC for August 18, by mistake when I was creating an account for Loomis courier , by mistake I schedule an appointment for August 21st and immediately I cancelled that appointment. I called this morning to confirm that my original appointment was still schedule and they informed me that appointment was cancelled too (because of my stupidity ). Then she said we have an opening for August 5th, would you like to take that appointment? WOULD I LIKE TO TAKE THAT APPOINTMENT? LOL of course I said! so at the end it paid off.

Thanks and I wish you best of luck with your process.

Tomorrow is my wife's interview. I'm hoping the case doesn't get delayed by administrative processing! They only asked her to bring her passport and medical packet but she will take copies of everything just in case.

Hi everyone!

Could anyone tell me when would we receive an alien registration number? Is it right after the interview or will it be in the visa stamp with the passport once we receive it back?

Thanks!

When you pick up your Visa packet with passport with Visa it it you will have than your A#.

The codes are a little confusing what is required are not. For starter both O and Y means the same thing.

O The NVC sent this form or document to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate

Y The NVC sent this form or document to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate

Petitioner birth certificate is marked as F, meaning NVC doesn't need it. But there are bunch of other Fs too which doesn't apply to me like Adoption, marriage termination, court records etc.

Also it Petitioner marriage certificate is also marked as F but this is my own marriage and NVC has the original.

It is a little hard to say what documents they do require on bringing! Just like adoption records doesn't apply to me, does the petitioner birth certificate not apply to me as well or does it?

I would presume that F means they do not need it, and as per the marriage certificate, I believe that is for any previous marriage certificates of the petitioner. There should be another "marriage certificate" with a different letter, indicating that it has been sent by NVC, your current marriage certificate. Hope this helps!

Good morning everyone, I have successfully re-schedule my interview earlier...Instead of August 18 will be August 5

Congrats! I am hoping to get an earlier interview also. Good Luck

I know there is medical appointment before interview but some people do finger printing as well before interivew. My understanding Islamabad embassy takes finger prints at the time of interview!? The fact some people can do finger printing ahead of interview is confusing to me. Please let me know if it is normal to have this done at the time of interview particularly at Islamabad. Thx

Cmoon... All I need to be happy is interview date

[FD&MDVL 58]

This is by FAR the most nerve racking time of this process, in Three weeks our interview will be complete. All the preparing in the last YEARS has come to this, thank goodness for this website and be obsessive about being prepared-- even still they are tryng to throw us a curve ball. In the LAST 30 days, some changes have been made by the HONDURAN Consulate, they no longer accept the LONG VERSION of the birth certificate but now ONLY ACCEPT a new format called the BOOK OF BIRTHS, which apparantly is a microfish or printout of the official registry and has to be certified-- well we are running around in the last minute getting this for the interview. Thanks to a fellow VJ member who has his interview shortly after mine he pointed this FACT out to me. I called the NVC and said had they known about this? is there a DATE when this took effect, all he did was pull up the HONDURAN Embassy web site and read the same thing I was reading -- but the interesting thing is if you look on other pages of the website it contradicts itself, his advice was just get it, and even though they accepted the LONG VERSION of the passports until recently they can do or say whatever they want. ANOTHER CHANGE they made was in the delivery of the approved VISA, in the past it was always come back the next day and pick up the VISA, but now you must preregister with DHL (cargo Express) and wait to get it sent to you--- I guess if I am worried about the delivery of the VISA I dont have to worry about the interview if that makes any sense- but-- our flight is 6 days after the interview and NOW all of a sudden they have digured out a way to stress me out even AFTER the interview...

I am blabbering but HERE of all places you should understand WHY we blabber on - and let this drive us CrAzY!

hoping for the best- I start my trip on Friday evening August 1st- and will be reuinited with my three princess' on August 4 at 2 am... that alone is reason to TRY to calm down. The JOURNEY in the name VJ is very appropriate.

[FD&MDVL 58]

Hey guys - do I need to register at usatraveldocs.com?

I think this is an embassy specific question, I know that for HONDURAS you have to PRE register with them and choose a office for your papers to be delivered to via cargo express and that is done on the travel docs web page ( I had to call them to get it done)--

THis is something that just recently changed for Honduras- prior to last month you did NOT have to choose a cargo express-- I would do it anyways just to make sure you cover all your bases and check your embassy for any special requirements they may have--

prepare and prepare some more-

good luck

It's been a very long day. But this part is over finally. We had a late lunch with my sister in law and now we are driving back home as I type. Traffic is horrible because everybody is driving home from work

I realize you still have the waiver process to get through, but congratulations on having the interview over with, even though it sounds like such a #######!!

Good morning everyone, I have successfully re-schedule my interview earlier...Instead of August 18 will be August 5

That's a great recovery!!!!

Hey guys - do I need to register at usatraveldocs.com?

I would imagine so, but does your country specific forum discuss it or your interview letter or consulate instructions on the official immigration sites?

Tomorrow is my wife's interview. I'm hoping the case doesn't get delayed by administrative processing! They only asked her to bring her passport and medical packet but she will take copies of everything just in case.

Good luck!!
