Yep, you got that right, the receipt number is that WAC number that has been your obsession all those past months

It's true! Do you happen to know if the DS-160 form has to be ready as well? Do we wait for packet 3 to come via snail mail before we can do anything else?

You should talk to someone from Canada to clarify how it works there, but I think the Embassy will email you the packet in a few days, though I think other beneficiaries there emailed them with the documents required in Packet 3 before that. You should check Canada's portal here!

Wow! Thats crazy. I  admire you both for being able to do that. We thought our 8 hour trips were hard and tiring lol. Im actually so excited for you to be finally doing this. In little over a month it will be my turn I have 5 weeks left at work and 6 weeks until POE! (providing all goes well at interview).

@Salty2305 have you chosen your POE yet? And how did your medical go? (sorry if I missed an earlier post on this)

Hey the medical was all good, that flu jab was pretty vicious though! I’m ok with vaccines but that one was rough! The journey there was the worst part! Such a nightmare living so far away from London.  

 

Have you got your visa in hand? I would really like Raleigh or Charlotte to be our POE but we are also considering JFK or Toronto based on the flight offers we’ve been looking at. I guess the good thing about those 2 is they problem experiences so many k visas whereas I could not find a lot of reviews for anywhere in NC. Hoping to fly out on or before Halloween  how about you?

Hi! Good day guys! Can anyone tell me when can my fiance fill up the ds-160 form? Can we do it now even if we're still planning when to have the medical and we still don't have an interview date? Or do we do it before we schedule the interview? Thanks for who'll reply!

Glad to hear all went well! Yea the travelling was the worst part for me too. I didnt have to have the Flu vaccine, but had it at work anyway. It wasnt bad when I had it but maybe it was a different type?

 

My interview is on the 17th OCT so after yours actually. I dont leave my job until the 12th of November so it was hard fitting it into my work week.

 

I think Raleigh will be the easiest for me. I dont want to have to get on another flight after POE incase I miss the connection. I just can't predict how long it will take to get through immigration. There are some flights that go striaght from Heathrow to Raleigh too. So I might do MAN-LHR-RDU for my flight and keep it simple. Hopefully prices wont be too high but hey, we've been doing this for years so whats one extra expense .

 

Your POE is so soon! I bet youre excited. I hope you and your little boy settle in well, im sure you will. My POE is NOV 20 (hopefully). We just put our deposit down on our apartment in Fayetteville. Things are moving so quickly. After 3 years of waiting I kinda have to stop and realise how far we've come. Its a crazy experience.

I finished work this Friday just gone and handed in the keys to my house so we are just waiting for visa in hand and then we are off  my son has been homeschooled since September to try and help him acclimatise to the move but he is definitely ready to get back to school. 

 

We bought a house in Winston Salem in January but ended up selling it last month so that we could buy the house next to Matt’s parents that became available. Just got the keys yesterday so Matt is in Bob the builder mode! Haha unless I can find a good deal, we will probably do Newquay to Gatwick, Gatwick to JFK and then JFK to Raleigh or Charlotte.

 

I’ll let you know how the interview goes and if I have any tips or helpful bits for you to know after Thursday!

Hi, Sally08 !

Yes, you can fill the DS-160 form, just save filled form on your computer, because on the embassy's website it can be kept for a 30 days only..

Oh alright! Thanks Tatiana We'll do that I was just confused cuz I thought you can only fill it out online and then print it out along with the "confirmation" thing or code? But I think that's not right at all.lol

Hi all,

 

i want to ask that although my fiancee meets the poverty guidelines, but still if she want to add the joint sponsor for I134 can she do so?? I mean is it right to add the cosponsor despite having the  income little more than 125%??

Don't you have the K1 visa packet? Here you can find the PDF, which the list of documents to take to the interview.

https://mx.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee/how-to-apply/

Yes I have it, and thats why my question I wanted to know if this form, had to be sent somewhere and then received some special document based on that form. Since its a form where you are telling the government how much money you make I thought maybe someone needed to verify if you were telling the truth

For everyones enjoyment

I will leave here a video of the Try Guys from buzzfeed talking about immigration, if they only knew is sooooo hard.

 

One of the girls is from my hometown Tampico, Mexico

Well, that varies by country, but in your case I think you have to take everything with you for the interview, which seems to be the norm for most Embassies.

Some of them don't even ask for the form at the interview  so I guess they are not that strict reviewing things, or at least not beforehand.

So gather all the supporting documents and affidavit, and take it with the rest of paperwork to the interview

you will fill it, then save... do not send DS-160  until your case will be READY and you will pay a consular fee, then send the form, and only after this you will get confirmation with a code on it .
