I read in other posts that sometimes the NOA2 notice doesn't arrive by text/email even though the NOA1 did. I'm thinking if we create an account at the myUSCIS online page if that will make it more of a "sure thing" that we receive the electronic notification?

Does anybody know if there is any benefit to creating the account through their website?

Yes there are advantages as you can follow all your cases through myUSCIS. Also, get the phone app and you will get notification once their website is updated. It's via a third party and it's a very nice app and accurate.

Thanks!

About the shots could the doctor at the medical interview give me the shots if he realizes i don't have them already if needed? What are the shots needed exactly (where can I find them?)

What do you mean by medical report?

About the pay stubs and a few banks statements for the affidavit of support, since I am not going to visit my fiance anymore until I move definately over there, can he send them to me? If yes, should they be copies or originals?

Thanks for your help!

The doctor can give you the shots. Look on your subforum for Canada hopefully it'll give you a link to where you get the medical done and you'll find information on there?

I need a medical report written as I have health conditions that need to be documented. Asthma etc.

They need to be originals not copies, he can mail them to you :)

No problem :) Canadian subforum is here: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/93-canada/ They will have any information specific to your country. I could tell you plenty about the UK but there are variations country to country.

Started trying to get hold of a medical report from my doctor for the medical.

Told my fiance that he'll need to bring some pay stubs and a few bank statements with him for the affidavit when he visits next month.

For the affidavit, the I-134, when I downloaded the form for my fiance it says the form will expire of Feb 29, 2016. That expiration date is referring to the version of the form right? I don't mind waiting for the new version since I don't think we'll get our NOA2 until mid march. But what about the others, will the I-134 be invalid during their interview if their interview date is March and their fiance sends them the current version? Sorry if my question is confusing.
