Pleae, help - an apropriate way to transmit the requested documents to the Embassy after interview???

[Ksenia_O 696]

Hello, VJ friends!

My friend and her son had their K1/K2 interviews today, in Kiev.

They've been asked a lot of questions and also they've spent almost 3.5 hours at the Embassy, which is unusual for Kiev , - usually it's just a few questions and 5-15 minutes. But of course, each case is different and "regular" things can turn to "unusual" - you never know.

But anyway - done, and at the and of their interview their passports and medical have been taken by the CO. Sounds like a good sign so far, right?...

The only issue, at least for right now is - my friend (K1) messed up with her Police Certificate. It wasn't accepted because the document didn't include her maiden name - it indicated only her last name from previous marriage.

She has been told to get it re-done and bring it to the Embassy. Not a big a deal, she has already contacted to Police Department and they've promised that her new Police certificate will be done by Friday.

The question is: How should she pass the requested document to CO?.... She's been told - through security guys, who meet you outside..

But It doesn't sound right to me, and if it was me- i wouldn't give them anything... I don't know - i might be mistaken and probably, i'm just overthinking the situation..

Has anybody experienced something like this? What is an appropriate way to bring the requested document to the Embassy after interview?...

Please, any advises would be greatly appreciated. Her Fiance (USC) is on his return flight right now, from Kiev to the US. She was hoping to give him a good news as soon as he is on the american soil...

Thank you!!!

Send it overnight with FedEx...

Thank you, Georgia16.!! I also think she should send it.. as soon as she has her new police certificate.

Yeah that way she also has proof that it was delivered and so on.

Well, that's not for nothing I didn't like the idea to pass the requested documents through security guys - just found this on the US Embassy (Kiev) website:

"Document Drop-Off Locations

If you were issued a 221(g) letter and instructed to submit additional documentation for further processing, you should submit those documents to TMM-Express, which will deliver your documents to the U.S. Embassy."

My friend wasn't given a 221 (g) or any other slips. But still, I think it is the only appropriate way - to use TNT to drop off the requested document.

Thanks again , Georgia16! Your idea with FedEx made me think of TNT , because the US Embassy in Kiev works with them :)
