I say they take my long standing idea. At Case Complete NVC opens up the ustraveldocs.gov portal so you can schedule your own dang um interview. How about that. I mean why is it K1 can and you can't?

Well the search engine is for you to see where your case is at, to track it. Doesn't have anything to do with the instructions you were given in your interview letter. Just thought you might wanna check it out. Its not second website info.. Its on the first page of the CEAC portal.

dwheels76, please help if you can, I'm freaking out a little bit. My interview is coming up on August 20th, and I only have a scanned copy of my husband's divorce decree from his previous marriage. My divorce decree from my previous marriage is fine - it's original and apostilled, but neither my husband nor his ex-wife have an original of this document, and neither of them are in the country to request an original. Will it be fine if I just take the original of my decree, and the scanned (not certified!) copy of my husband's decree?

It might be a little late now but usually you can order a certified copy from the county clerk's office and they will just send it home to you.

Met online October 2010

@Dwheels - please update my case, this is for R5 for my mother.

Interview was scheduled on 7/15 for 8/25. We requested an earlier date with the consulate and got rescheduled for 8/12. The interview went well today, now waiting to get the paperwork back from them. Country is Georgia.

Thanks to all for all your help and support! It''s been a nerve-wrecking journey but this forum has made a huge difference!
