@AkesAngel @geowrian we'd love some March scans please 😬

[Rev 392]

If no one else is already planning on it, I would be willing to run the scans for March if @AkesAngel and/or @geowrian are willing to share the script and instructions.  I'm on here every day

 

If for some reason we need our own script, my fiance would be able to make one.

Oh well at least busy keeps my mind off of the waiting. lol

There are a couple people who have asked asked about it for March and I sent the scripts and instructions, but nobody actually committed to running it yet AFAIK. If you're able and willing, that'd be amazing. It sounds like @AkesAngel is already reaching out to you (THANK YOU!!!), but feel free to PM me about anything as well.

If you already have instructions written up, I wouldn't mind if you sent them over.  Otherwise, it sounds like @AkesAngel is willing to walk me through it and I've got my fiance to bug if I get stuck.  Ha!  Hopefully I can make it happen for everyone, but I'm happy to leave it to someone else if we've got someone more techy than me in March.

Hi, that sounds amazing! If you have extra time, I was wondering if you could give some insight as to what could be done during the "wait". I tried looking into the DS-160 and it didn't look like anything that could be looked into at this time. Please tell me if I am missing something with that.
Also, I am going to assume you took care of the I-130... when I was looking at this, it seems they want a LOT of info backing this information up, what are your thoughts on all this info? I have considered just sending my W-2, 401k statement along with another asset with it and calling it good because I have did much research on stuff and found that a lot of times, most of that other stuff is not even really looked at if there doesn't seem to be a problem. I really don't wanna deal with all the bank stuff and pay stubs and letter from employer HR if its not REALLY necessary. Just seems like a lot of work for nothing.
So, yeah, just wondering what else I could be doing with this time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!  I just wanna be on top of it and ready to do send what I need to as soon as I get the word to do so so that the process does not get delayed any longer then it already feels lol

Yea of course, I'm willing to help in any kind of way! This forum has been nothing but helpful to me especially since I thought I was going to have to get a lawyer to do it all for me.

 

The DS-160 can be done beforehand. I have everything filled out on it for my fiance (I'm the petitioner) except his dads address, but we still have a couple months to get that information from him. He just sent me a picture of his passport and all the other questions that I didn't know I asked him while we were chatting on Whatsapp. He then went into the website and verified everything I filled out was correct. Make sure to save all of your information and to go into the application at least once every 2 weeks or so. I think the application deletes itself after 20 days of inactivity if you don't submit it and you'll have to start a new one.

 

For the affidavit of support, I recommend bringing more than what you think they would need. It's better to have it and them not ask for it, than for them to ask for it and not have it. That'll just make you have to wait even longer to enter the US, or your fiance to enter the US. This is what I've gathered for my affidavit of support: 2013-2016 W2's, tax transcripts and will be getting a letter from my job. I'll also be printing out my bank statements showing my deposits from my job for those years just in case my bank can't provide me the letter with all the information needed on it. The letter from my job and the letter from the bank is what I'm waiting on doing so that it'll be dated closer to the interview date.

 

As for right now, you can do a lot to get it out of the way beforehand and not be in a scramble to do everything once the time comes. Usually on your/your fiance's country embassy website it should have a checklist of what you need to do such as the medical and police certificates. It'll also tell you everything you need to bring to the interview. I've also filled out everything my fiance will need for his AOS and his social security card, well as much as I could without his A number and some other info. I know that once the fiance arrives into the US everything usually goes really quickly. So, for example as soon as my fiance enters, we'll be going to get his social security card (probably a couple days after so he can get some rest before the madness starts), and seeing about getting his drivers license.. After that, we'll get married and then send in his AOS packet so he can start working as quickly as possible.

 

I've also started thinking of things we can do around the city so I can get him accustomed to Houston since he's never been here nor in the US before. I've also been thinking about the honeymoon, since he won't be able to travel outside of the country until his AP comes, I was thinking of asking one of my sisters bestfriend's to use one of her timeshares in Austin or somewhere else. That way we can do a little get away but still stay within the US. I've also started buying him some clothes/shoes so when he comes he can have some what of a wardrobe because it may be cold by the time he gets here and Cuba doesn't really have clothes for the cold... or well clothes period for that matter lol
