Vaccinations are not required for k1 visas?? Is this new?

Vaccinations are not required for K Visas. But is required for AOS. I saw a list of 15 "needed" vaccinations. We talked to the Doctor who does the Medical Exam. He said with no shot records she only needed 3. We opted to do them now instead of waiting.

 

For those still waiting on NOA2 or NVC, reach out to your Clinics now for guidance!

Hi everybody,

I am a little concerned and not sure about what to do.

 

Our NOA1 is 02/08/2017 and

our NOA2 is 05/25/2017

 

Since then we have not heard anything from NVC. My fiancé tried to call them several times but didn't get through. Also he sent an email last Monday but no answer yet. 

 

It is over 4 weeks now since USCIS approval.

 

What are your thoughts on this? 

Love

Silvia

We called around 8pm standard eastern time and got through within 10min each call. Try calling at non peak times and you may have better luck. Also, make sure you are calling the non immigrant line.

The three numbers starts  from 000 and added 500. So let's say if it's 668. Subtract 500 from 668. That's 168. If you starts counting from January 1, June 17th is the 168th day of the year. :) Got it from this website.  Please refer to it for better explanation. 😊

As you appear to be applying from Germany, I should inform you that (some, possibly all) new K1 cases going to Frankfurt are being processed through NVC's new electronic system. The long and the short is that this process is taking closer to a month (to get a case number), as has been the case with me and a few other German filers on here.

 

I suggest that when you call, you call the immigrant line ((603) 334-0700), and after selecting English, choose option 5 ("If you are required to submit documents through CEAC" is what it'll say). These agents are the ones are dealing with and able to see electronic cases, like those going to Frankfurt, and should be able to confirm if your case has been received and whether it has a case number yet. Many agents at NVC don't seem to be able to locate the electronic cases, so that is your best bet. Call them early in the morning, they open at 7am eastern, and you should get through fairly quickly.

 

If you have any other questions please let me know or come join us in the German thread, as you are not the only one who experienced this!

From what I know, 1040 and W-2 are not the same thing, they are separate documents. The 1040 you generate yourself when you file your taxes, the W-2 is provided from your employer, you should receive the W-2 from your employer each spring or late winter in preparation for filing taxes in the spring.

 

As far as I know right now, I would be ready to provide both the 1040 and W-2, as that is what my attorney is requiring from me at the moment.

1040 is pay stubs?

i don't know about signing the w2 and paystubs, sorry. but since your fiance is sending you the i-134F anyway, what's the harm in including the w2 and paystubs in the same packet? it's not as if the package rate will double just because the document he is sending is a few papers thicker right?
