Better be slow and steady than miss out on documents right?

 

Have you gotten yourself a myUSCIS account? There's not much status to see now other than you've been sent a NOA1 but the tracker is great for updates when they start processing your submission :D

Thanks for the positivity :D I haven't started requesting police certificates yet because when I read the consulate's review for Auckland, it states that instructions for police certificates will be available in the packet sent to me from the consulate...

I've also checked my previous police certs for residency in NZ and neither the VN one or the UK one states how long they'd be valid for. However, for the UK one, the address they used for me was my old apartment's address. I wonder if i should email the consulate or should wait until we've been approved, in case some certs are only valid for 6 months..
